The London Designer Outlet is the outlet mall right outside Wembley Stadium, it's a pretty cool…read moreplace, a mixture of indoor and outdoor shops and restaurants. It opened towards the end of 2013 yet still feels modern. The stores located here like any Outlet can be hit or miss depending on the season and how lucky you can get, but there is a good selection of brands including Boss, Calvin Klein and Marks and Spencer. There's a large amount of places to eat and drink here too, as there is around Wembley as a whole. LDO also features a Cineworld Cinema. PRO TIP: Use the tube if coming here as Wembley Park Underground Station is only a short walk away, parking is expensive and on an event day, you'll be paying a flat rate and spending hours getting out of the car park. Overall, it's a cool location to grab a bite to eat or shop, especially on a non-event-day, walking around the mall, you can also see the iconic Wembley Stadium arch. 4*

Ealing Broadway Centre is a shopping Centre which includes retail shops of every nature clothes,…read morefootwear, books, cards, electrical, beauty, food, gift shops and some independent (food confectionery, cafe's)shops. In the middle of the shopping Centre you have a few statues and seating to rest your tired feet, or for your loved one to wait while you shop. On the top floor you have Argos and Ealing Central Library. On the ground floor mostly chains and the odd cheap non chain shop basically everything I mentioned above, plus Tesco's. I really like their Primark, I would say its on the level of Oxford street but without the crazy crowds. Ealing Broadway Centre is on the Uxbridge road so its convenient to get to, because all the buses pass their plus you have the Ealing Broadway station which is a 10minutes away. They also have their own car park as well. The shopping Centre is good for the locals, but I would not go out of my way here, because you can get majority of the stuff where you live, (I lived in Harrow at the time). I wished i tried some of the independent shops more....its a good shopping Centre and does the job.

Check out the website: it's quite useful, and lists all the shops. The usual necessities are there, including newly renovated Boots, M&S, Waterstones, and a relatively new Tesco Metro. Primark is currently building a new shop here and will finish early this summer, replacing a Beales that is now gone. The nice thing about this mall is that it's partly outside. Most hallways open directly to the outdoors rather than having closing doors. While this means its not quite a fully-heated refuge in winter, it makes it more an integrated part of the stroll through Ealing than a hermetically-sealed environment. The central courtyard is open to the sky which makes it nice when they have craft stalls or summer concerts there. Many of the shops face outwards from the building as well, or are in passages that lead out to the street. The bad thing about the open-air aspects of the mall is that people can still smoke in here. There's an Early Learning Centre (ELC) that makes great educational and interactive toys for kids. There also a Fat Face clothing store that appeals to my Canadian/comfortable/lumberjack side. The rear mall entrance does have glass doors, and these seem to get broken, cracked, or become non-functioning with disappointing frequency, and to be fixed with disappointingly slow speed. I feel that the choice of men's clothing on offer isn't great. And those who are used to hundreds of shops (a la Oxford Street) may find it limited. But if you're not looking for anything too unusual you'll probably find it here.

The last time I went there, I was buying some shoes an lingerie, lingerie was not a problem but I needed some help in the shoe section, not a single member of staff available on the whole floor to help, so I ended up buying just one pair as opposed to 2 that I wanted to purchase. When I then went to pay there was only one cashier behind the tills and 8 people ahead of me, the cashier kept ringing her bell for a good 15-20 minutes to call for more staff and no one came for over 20 minutes and then two people arrived at the same time and did not seem at all bothered when the other cashier said she'd been calling them for ages. At least 4 people who were behind me left the items they wanted to buy and walked out of the store, this is a sure fire way to lose business, this was around 6pm, people were saying they had just popped in for a quick shop after work and had trains to catch from Ealing Broadway. I never used to have any complaints with the level of service once I'd actually managed to get served but even that seems to have gone downhil of late, what a shame! The quality of the items for sale can't be faulted whether it be clothing, shoes, lingerie, food, drinks, household items, gifts, etc, but the queues really need to move faster. The sales can be fantastic with some really good bargains too! This level of service is not acceptable and I'm sad that this once fabulous store which I always felt had fanstastic customer service has sunk this low. I used to go to M&S at least twice a month and now I visit every other month only. And they wonder why business is down?! Management really need to improve service levels or lose more customers. When you have half an hour for lunch, you really don't want to queue for 20 minutes to get a sandwich!

I really love this place. This B&M is situated on the site that previously housed Homebase, so it…read moreis huge. The only B&M I'd been to before was a couple of years ago, when I was in Yorkshire. I was really impressed with that store and it wasn't an eighth of the size of this store. I looked at the website and it seems that they are springing up all around London and the South East. It's a hard store to explain. It's like a mix of Poundland, Robert Dyas and B&Q (if you're American read Dollar General, Big Lots and Walmart). It also has quite a large but busy carpark. This store is on two levels, complete with a garden centre attached. Upstairs is mainly concentrated on decorating and DIY goods. It has a large selection of non-perishable foods, and a large section for biscuits and sweets. I even found French's Steak Sauce for 49p, cheaper than purchasing it in the US. You can get TV's here and audio equipment. There is also a furniture section and tons of toys and games. As its near Christmas two aisle are concentrated on decorations, mainly tat, but with some tasteful bargains too, with plenty of stocking filler gifts. I really like this store, and know I will be back on a not too regular basis, but if I fancy a stroll around with nothing too much in mind, other than pick up a bargain.

This Asda is great! They are open 24 hours during the week, so if your really craving something you…read morecan get it any time of the day/night. They also have pretty much everything! From clothing to electronics and obviously all the food you can think of. (No canned lychees though... when I asked someone if they have it they said: Yeah cheese section is right over there... hello? I am Swiss yes but not everything I want is cheese) There is also a pharmacy and an optician which can be really helpful too. I also love it that they sell fresh Indian food which is great for lunch (I work nearby). So yeah good place but usually too crowded...

Wal-Mart has never let me down (okay ONCE, but it was for a CD of the musical AIDA...and who in the midwest listens to musicals besides me?) and yet, Asda, you failed me. All I needed was cheap baby dolls for a halloween costume. Not even BIG baby dolls, just small ones to represent the Octomom. But, sadly, there was none of that. Only plush stuffed dolls that were like £4. However, it did redeem itself when I found both american popcorn and cheerios on sale. And let me tell you, Honeynut Cheerios will go a long way in redeeming something in my eyes. If it was closer (aka not a 2 hour busride from my flat) I would totally hit it up for cheap groceries. So, all in all, it was a nice reminder of home but just not the same useless crap that I miss so much.

However, Fara does have some great clothes, and I've even found a few designer gems in the piles of clothes I've rummaged through, but if you're not prepared to sift through endless piles of second hand goods, then this isn't the place for you. The staff are helpful- as I mentioned before they are very attentive, but generally in a good, not intrusive, way. In addition, the kid's shop down the road is even nicer- much more bright and organised than the original shop, and with even more bargains. Overall, Fara is a really cheap charity shop, and if you can brave the piles of bric a brac, you can come away with some real gems. And it's all for a good cause, so it's guilt-free shopping!
