Abbey China is a small shop at the top of Cheap Street. In addition to china, the shop carries…read morejewelry and some evening type beaded handbags and beautiful belts. This shop always has so much affordable costume jewelry, that I can't walk by without going in. They carry items from the Butler Wilson line and offer great sales several times a year. The staff is wonderful about ordering items from London and will even phone and speak to the designer while you're there, to make sure that you're happy with the request. This is the place I go when I need a gift for a teenage girl or woman.

We brought a set of Rocknife's from their website as both my wife and I love cooking and I love a…read moregood knife to prep food with. We've always used steel knives in the past, but this time, I wanted to try something different. My old knives were becoming blunt and so searched for a knife that doesn't blunt easily - which is where I discovered Ceramic Knives! I did some research and decided to try them out. I couldn't be happier with the knives I brought from Rocknife - they slice through all veg and meat (though I'd be very careful using them on boned meat otherwise they might chip and wouldn't recommend using them to crush garlic either). I've had them for about a year now and they are still as sharp and as sturdy as the day I brought them. They were also a great price! I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants really sharp kitchen knives

They have a big lunch menu but we were going only looking for a lightish lunch so both had ciabatta sandwiches - I had the brie & cranberry and Paul had smoked salmon. They were both great, and the side of chips was especially good. The atmosphere was so warm and lovely, and if I'm ever in the are again I'd definitely like to return. Cute cute cute.

For the kitchen there is all sorts of crockery, chinaware, cookware, glassware, tableware and gadgets. From the traditional to retro to ulta modern.

At the moment Robert James is a bit of a mess. They sell a variety of items including household…read morecleaning products, toothpastes, kitchen accessories and equipment, and crockery. As I alluded to the presentation of stock in this store leaves something to be desired and does not make for a pleasant shopping experience. I really believe if this shop had a little bit of a revamp and got rid of certain products it could be a great success. For starters they should focus on selling the kitchen equipment and accessories some of which I noticed were extremely good brands, and reasonably priced. Additionally the crockery selection available, though small, is very visually pleasing, and I'd be quite happy to have in my house. If you can get passed the mess, I would really recommend a visit to this store, most of the products themselves are rather good!

I just haven't found a statement that I'd like to make with any of it yet. There are some beautiful things here though, with price tags to go with them. There is lots of jewelry and some greeting cards, and gift type things. What I really love is the little chandeliers that hang by the stairs on display, and the huge selection of fun scarves. There are lots of pillows upstairs that deserve a good look. Some are just beautiful. I can spend hours in this shop. The staff tend to be stand-offish, although not really unfriendly. I've been frequenting this shop for over a year and have not yet had someone ask to help.
