ARTBOX REVIEWS

For fans of Pusheen and all cute cartoons, such as BTS, Hello Kitty and more! If you're a fan, this place is a must! With everything from mugs to pencils, baby food bowls to silk shirts. Top quality merchandise, fabulous staff making everyone feel so very welcome! Its a small shop so limited customers allowed entry at once. We had to queue up outside for our turn, but got in within around 20-30 minutes. So much to choose, well laid out and amazing staff. Well worth a visit!

This store is amazing. I am fan of Hello Kitty, Totoro and other Japanese characters. If you are a fan as well, this place is a must. Really nice organised by themes. The have a good variety of stuff. It gets crowded really quickly as the place is not big. You must need to to wait outside but it is worth to wait.

My daughter bought a water bottle from Artbox, and accidentally dropped with the cover broken. When I email them and get a rapid response with a new one arrived within 2 days. I really happy with their service and highly recommend the shop that provide such excellent service.

BUCKINGHAM PALACE SHOP REVIEWS

Lovely store! I was there as There were no books of Queen Elizabeth II at the Palace store across the street! ( I found that fact a bit disrespectful.) The staff here is amazing, kind, friendly and explained all the details than made the items special. Like the history behind the homeware selection. Replica of the dinnerware of the Queen’s mother times. Memories of Queen Elizabeth II childhood. Interesting. Not your typical souvenir store!

Amazing official merchandise shop for Buckingham Palace and all things royal! As expected, everything quite expensive in price, but there are also lots of more everyday items that are affordable, and two sale sections as well that meant we could grab a few extras! Lovely little shop!

Beautiful souvenir shop based around Buckingham Palace and the Royal Family. The souvenirs are all very high quality. In addition to textiles, there are also porcelain and merchandise. The staff is particularly friendly and courteous and gives very transparent advice.

LITTLE BRITANNIA REVIEWS

Such cute and chic souvenirs! Boutique items on a travelers budget! The more you buy the better the deals. One stop shop for the cute mugs, shot glasses, linen bags, home goods, and apparel. Allen was our cashier- very friendly.

Highly recommend! Excellent spot for a new outfit and some gorgeous new dishes.

Nice shop with cool things & good staff as well.
