Morleys

Real south Londoners know that Morleys isn’t just the name of a locally beloved chicken shop; it’s also a department store. Forget Harrods, Selfridges and Liberty, this place is an institution in its own right, and while it’s not quite as luxe or old as some of the bigger names, it’s been a presence on Brixton High Street since 1810, when it opened as Morley & Lanceley and operated as a general drapery business. Today, it’s a go-to for locals, serving up men’s and women’s fashion, beauty, luxury food and drink, homeware, furniture, and kids’ toys over four floors.
