Full description

Spread across several floors of a converted building near Church Street, Alfies brings together a large concentration of independent antiques and vintage dealers under one roof, appealing especially to visitors with existing knowledge of the trade. Its high hidden-gem and culture scores against a more modest must-see rating mark it as a specialist destination rather than a mainstream stop, and reviewers with an interest in antiques rate it among London's best for the sheer range and quality of stalls.
