Babe, grab a coffee because we need to talk.
I finally ticked Harrods London off my bucket list, and oh my goodness… it is way better than I ever imagined!
The second you walk in, the vibe is just next-level.
Everyone looks seriously rich, and I lost count of how many stunning Middle Eastern ladies I saw shopping like absolute crazy.
The whole architecture and ambiance? Spectacular. I felt like I was walking through a royal palace.
If you are planning a trip, here is the real, unedited scoop on what to do (and what to skip)!
🫖 The Dreamy Afternoon Tea Spot
You have to try The Georgian on the 4th floor for afternoon tea.
It is the ultimate luxury experience! But here is a pro-tip: if you want to soak up some rare London sunlight, ask to sit out on the balcony right next to it.
Sipping tea with that view? Pure heaven.
🥞 The Honest Truth About Harrods Café (3rd Floor)
For my visit, I wanted something a bit more casual, so I headed to the Harrods Café on the 3rd floor.
- The Signature Braffles: I had to try them, but honestly? They were just okay. Nothing too special, so I wouldn’t say you must get them.
- The Ultimate Budget Hack: What I did love about this café is that they let you order just the Cream Tea (which is just the heavenly scones and cake). It is way more affordable than a full afternoon tea service but still feels super fancy!
🍫 The Ground Floor Food Halls & Souvenirs
Before you leave, you absolutely cannot skip the ground floor food hall and bakery. It is a total feast for the eyes. Everything from the chocolates to the teas and biscuits looks so lovely.
And of course, you can’t leave Harrods empty-handed! Make sure to pick up:
- The iconic Harrods Teddy Bear (a must-have for the collection!).
- One of their famous Harrods Tote Bags—literally everyone buys them, and they make the cutest daily bags.
