About John Lewis

John Lewis opened his first store on Oxford Street in 1864 selling haberdashery before expanding to the current building in 1870.

John Lewis is known for its keen pricing ("never knowingly undersold" is its price guarantee) and they stock nearly half a million products from perfume to luggage, and toys to TVs. The Oxford Street store was refurbished in 2001 and it just feels really nice to shop here so it's usually my first choice on Oxford Street. A basement food hall was added in 2007.

Peter Jones on Sloane Square, Chelsea, is part of the same group.
