Shopping in Marylebone Village

Marylebone Village is a collection of boutique shops, luxury name brand stores, cafes and restaurants located in and around Marylebone High Street. Nestled between the tranquil green lawns of Regent’s Park and the marvel of Mayfair, this delightful shopping district is a favourite with West London locals, but remains largely unknown to tourists. As a result, Marylebone Village retains a decidedly charming small-town feel, despite its proximity to bustling Oxford Street. The heart of the village runs through Marylebone High Street, a dapper thoroughfare brimming with photo-worthy facades. Occupying the high street’s prim and proper storefronts is a wonderful mix of fashion retailers, home stores, beauty and wellness shops and dining choices ranging from quaint British pubs to healthy modern fare. Visitors looking to take home British brands have a lot to choose from here - Emma Bridgewater, Whistles, The White Company, Aspinal of London, Links of London and many more UK labels all call Marylebone Village home
