London Beatles Store, London
Right next door to the Sherlock Holmes Museum—because why not mash up two British legends in one afternoon—you’ll find the London Beatles Store, a must-stop for any fan of the Fab Four. Step inside and you’re greeted with a surprisingly roomy interior—two whole rooms overflowing with Beatles merch that makes the Abbey Road gift shop look like a sad corner shelf at a petrol station.
We're talking posters, shirts, mugs, games, enamel pins, and enough books to build your own Yellow Submarine library. Yes, some of the prices might make your wallet do a double-take—but fear not, eagle-eyed shoppers! There are occasional deals that might just make you twist and shout.
And sure, they have a website for online orders, but the real magic happens in-store. The staff are walking Beatles encyclopedias, always ready with a tip, a fact, or a little help from their friends. For diehard fans, casual shoppers, or anyone who’s ever hummed Hey Jude in the shower, this place hits all the right notes.
