Start your day in Greenwich.
You’re bound to find that extra special stocking filler at Greenwich Christmas Market with over 150 fabulous craft and designer stalls. With festive food and drink stalls, you’ll be able to indulge in some savoury and sweet delicacies before browsing the eclectic mix of high street shops and boutiques.
Head north, and Canary Wharf is home to more than 200 shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. From cards at Clintons, bargains at Boots and pressies at Pandora, shop ‘til you drop. Rest your weary feet and shopping bags to grab some well deserved lunch at some exclusive venues.
Mention the DLR and receive a complimentary 175ml glass of ETM wine when you order a lunch at The Gun, or receive a complimentary Island Garden cocktail when you order two courses at the Parlour.
Once refuelled, take the DLR east to Gallions Reach Shopping Park, with over 35 major shops and restaurants. Enjoy major chains such as Smyths Toys, Next and TK Maxx, offering you a full range of gifts for all the family. From Monday 19th to Friday 23rd December the Park will stay open until 10.00pm soothing any last minute panics!
Jump back on the DLR and finish your day at Stratford, where the Westfield Stratford City shopping centre will be sure to tempt you with over 300 shiny new stores to buy your Christmas treats. The centre is a stone’s throw away from the DLR and you can get a first glimpse at the Olympic Park as London’s ‘gateway’ to the stadium. With big names such as John Lewis, Monsoon and HMV, you are guaranteed to tick off those last few presents on your wish lists.
