This place has been a long standing favourite of mine. Just opposite The Black Cap on Camden High…read moreStreet, it is one of the few non-chain stores that actually sells something you want on this road. All your cookery, tupperware and plastic vegetable needs will be satisfied here. More than that, it has a terrific range of cheap household goods, kitchen gadgets that you didn't know you needed until you saw them, saucepans, knives and more. Family run and super friendly, we once had every single hoover bag out from behind the counter trying to find the one that looked like it had a picture of my ailing vacuum on it... Budding domestic God and Goddesses will have kitchenalia overload. This is a great place to visit if you are setting up home on a budget & perfect for students. Best range of cookie cutters in hood.

Recent purchases for me have ranged from forks to a toast rack to a hammer to picture hooks.

It's not huge, but it is packed with everything you could ever want in a kitchen, and a few implements that even I was unsure of what to do with! The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and it's almost impossible to escape without having bought anything. I wandered in with a (guy) friend who pooh-poohed all kitchenware, and yet even he walked out with a Japanese carving knife at £60... They even get stock in for you if you ask them to. I feel a bit bad, as I asked them to get in a bean slicer, only to immediately find one elsewhere. The 10 bean slicers sitting forlornly on their hook stare at me every time I go in...I don't feel too bad though, I have since bought a jam funnel, some olive wood spoons and a special cleaning brush for sweetcorn.

I'm a sucker for a good kitchen supply store. This one is stuffed to the eyeballs with a plethora…read moreof gadgets. The real drawback is having to sift through containers of stuff to find exactly what you're looking for. Organized, it aint. That said, I enjoy their selection of serving ware from bowls and platters to demi spoons and cake plates. If you can't find the correct number of something, just ask. They seemingly have a lot of extra inventory in the back. It can seem like an odd collection; but if they have what I need, it makes me so very happy.

Perhaps not the best place if you have a particular item in mind, but it is certainly good for browsing and kitchen-gadget gifts. A smal selection of items I saw today: -Silicon ice cube moulds in fun shapes -Pyrex and enameled baking dishes -Cookie cutters and stamps -Cute mugs -Mason jars -Garlic peeling gadgets -Small, stylish food storage containers -Silicon spatulas in fun colours -Shot glass and science-style measuring cups -Baking moulds in a variety of goofy shapes -Buddha butter dish This kind of thing. Certainly not inexpensive, but about what you'd expect from a small, privately owned store on Columbia Road.

This is a great shop stocking mostly kitchenware but a few other home/garden things at the back…read more The prices are very reasonable, which is great considering that often shops in the area impose an East-End-Tax. It seems like anything you want for your kitchen, with the exception of white goods (!), you can get here and they stock a wide variety of brands from generic porcelain, modern Joseph Joseph to classic Tala. It is a bit cramped but that goes without saying on Columbia Road and they pack a lot in and always have a lot of people browsing. So go in here before you buy your bouquets and bay trees.

The only negative thing is that is a little bit overpriced now that she is getting more and more famous (but it is OK. A girl can never have enough bags!) I visit this shop frequently. It is quite small but it is really cosy and cute. They have a nice range of products (even though they miss some others, like fashion). The staff is friendly and really helpful every time I go there. My favourite CK shop for sure!

went to smiths today!!!!!!!!!I had a great experience ,we needed to get some plants for the garden…read moreand we were really sucsessful today.I was really pleased with the experience today.There were thousands of plants in the garden centre,there were a lot in the inside area and an absolute abundance of plants outside.Also all plants were well kept and very watered,actually helped me keep cool in all this heat,they obviously take pride in each and every one of their plants.Also there is so much stock of everything(plants and non-plants).This has really pleased me as I've seen some garden centres which has hardly any plants and they are all neglected.However in this garden centre,they even have Christmas trees in June,but I suppose today(the day I wrote my review)is only 6 months till Christmas Eve!!!!!!!!!But I cannot see why you can't have a Christmas tree in June if you want to.I brought 3 small ones!!!!!!!!!Also I've been to garden centres in Christmas and they haven't had christmas trees.Also they were really well staffed as well,and our cashier was polite and even offered for someone to help us load the car.Also the smiths golf thing right at the back of the garden centre looks great and I'm sure will make a lot of money for the garden centre.Also their drive thru concept to collect soil was good and very well thought out,it's like a McDonald's drive thru but you show you're receipt to staff and then drive on to get the soil.Lovely experience!!!!!!!!

It offers an extremely comprehensive range of products. Staff in the outside area can be hard to find but there are knowledgeable staff available if you need advice as I did when selecting a fruit tree for my garden. The level of customer service is high, I was surprised to discover that if you buy a heavy bag of fertiliser or compost it will be taken to your car on an electric carrier! So all in all a recommended place to go for garden supplies and products.
