They have sandwiches and wraps (I actually got something that had duck meat), as well as the usual crisps, beverages, magazines, and books. They also have the expected tourist tchotchkes and souvenirs. Checking out was kind of weird. You can either wait in line, or by the time you get to the cashier, he/she will tell you that you could have gone to the self-serve machines beyond the cashier.

This is a large WHSmith store, a travel location serving London Victoria Station. They have a great…read moreselection of travel essentials such as a drinks fridge, including a small selection of alcohol, that covers almost the whole wall on the right side of the store. Prices are high here, ultimately you're paying for convenience, if you have more time, you can pick up 90% of the items here at a fraction of the cost, even just a couple of minutes down the road. This is the case at pretty much every WHSmith Travel location. There is a Nescafe Azera coffee machine here, obviously, you have the usual suspects inside the station, but this coffee machine is especially useful if you're in a hurry ahead of getting a train, and don't have time to wait at Starbucks/Costa etc. The checkout area seemed a little too compact for my liking, it became a little messy rather quickly, given the size of the store, it's almost unacceptable as they could easily improve the area. 4*

The ground floor has a huge (and unsurprisingly busy) magazine and newspaper section, as well as a smaller book section, selling fiction, travel and business books. It's usually packed with commuters browsing the magazines while waiting for their train. There's also a food cabinet selling a limited range of drinks and pre-packed sandwiches. Upstairs is the cards and stationery section, with a large choice of greeting cards.

The store was clean and tidy but no-one on the till and only one self service till so not ideal when it's busy.

Im not sure if theres not enough staff or if they are just really slow at serving as there is always a long wait at the till.

Dirt free to boot! No tax's, however, you gotta carry these bags from airport to airport. What a pain in the ass!! The line was super long, but I'm guessing since I bought a significant amount she moved me to the front of the line!! Score! I was already super nervous about flying across the pond and this lovely lady Finona made this visit have a sweet ending! Thanks for having great employees! September 2023

One of the rare duty free shops that I have actually made a purchase. Generally I find duty free…read moreshops to be more expensive than buying online, so I generally skip it. Though I noticed some of the fragrances had some decent pricing that was comparable to online prices. The selection of goods is pretty extensive as it includes cosmetics, fragrances, liquor and souvenir foods. There is more than one World Duty Free store in Terminal 5. I saw a satellite store at Terminal 5B and the prices were slightly different. For the best selection, I would recommend shopping at the main store in Terminal 5 unless you are already at one of the satellite terminals already and don't want to backtrack.

You're greeted and assisted immediately and even while you're browsing around, employees check up on you. There's a good variety of handbags, accessories and shoes to choose from, as well as their one of a kind blue crocodile handbag (only one in the world). It's obviously a high designer so expensive, however London does not have tax so you actually save some money compared to purchasing in the USA.
