Which store is London’s luxury department store?

Harrods is the store most closely associated with London’s luxury shopping scene. Its Knightsbridge flagship is famous for high-end fashion, jewelry, and a vast Food Hall, all wrapped in a brand that signals opulence and premium experience. That iconic status—often used to symbolize luxury shopping in the city—sets it apart from other department stores. While Selfridges is also upscale and John Lewis or Debenhams are broader/upmarket but not defined by luxury branding in the same way, Harrods stands out as London’s quintessential luxury department store.
