Piccadilly, Floor By Glorious Floor Part Two
Piccadilly, Floor by Glorious Floor - Part Two
Second Floor
Riding the wave of a pleasing sugar rush, courtesy of our delicious ice cream from The Parlour on First, we continue our floor-by-floor tour of Fortnum’s by marching up the staircase to Second.
Each floor is unique in its own way but no floor smells as fantastic as Second. People gawk at the fragrance counter as a man clad in a signature Eau de Nil tie carefully pours perfume into a tiny container. He does not spill a drop.
To our right is Ladies’ Beauty, with everything one could want for a weekend of pampering, and in front of us are tables filled with Gentlemen’s accessories, Grooming and Candles – all, no doubt, smelling as wonderful as our rare fragrances.
Before we head up to the Third floor, we cast our eye towards the staircase at the back of Second, which opens upwards into a beautiful glass dome roof, pouring great torrents of light onto the staircase below.
Third Floor
And so, to Third, filled with everything one could wish for a very merry Christmas. That’s right – here you’ll find the baubles already hung, the wrapping paper ready and every wonderful thing about Fortnum’s recreated as a miniature decoration for your tree. Behold – our Christmas Shop.
As the ultimate Masters of Merry, and with 313 Christmases under our belt, we know a thing or two about celebrating our favourite time of year. And, with this Christmas looking a little different from the last, our Third Floor is the ultimate destination to bring the joy of the festive season into your home.
With a large shindig off the cards for 2020, why not send your friends and loved ones, your season’s greetings in the form of a well-stocked wicker? Our Third Floor is also home to our famous Hampers – perfect for gifting friends and family near and far.
Fourth Floor
Before we get lost among a haze of lifesize polar bears and twinkling baubles, we make our way up to the Fourth Floor. The collective gaze of those sat within the Diamond Jubilee Tea Salon is fixed upon the signature Fortnum's delights so wonderfully-assembled on their tables.
This special place has a calm atmosphere that allows you to escape into a world of the finest rare, single-origin and famous Fortnum’s tea and moreish cake for a few wonderous hours. If you’re celebrating a birthday during October you can also enjoy an Afternoon Tea free on us – find out more about it here.
And so, with our senses satisfied and our desire for cake fulfilled, we finish the whistle-stop tour of our Piccadilly home. We look forward to welcoming you in person soon.
We have ensured that every Fortnum’s store is as safe as possible – read about the measures we’re taking and our coronavirus FAQ here.
