A & K Warehouse

I actually associate this place more with kitchenware than furniture, but I agree that it’s a very handy place.
When I moved to London several years back, I think it took me about a year to figure out one could buy household goods someplace other than argos. Of course, I lived in halls near covent garden, so I give myself a small excuse for that idiocy.
Now that I’m in Camden, I generally head to A&K for all the little bits and peices of kitchen and other assorted household stuff I may need (for those who have done time in the states, I often go here for the random sorts of things that used to have me Target-​bound). They are not infallible, nor would I go there for sparkling service (not bad mind, they just basically leave you alone), but I find that if I can’t find something random in A&K, there’s a decent chance I won’t find it anywhere else nearby either.

The A & K Warehouse is an excellent outlet for your furniture needs — especially in the wooden models — alot of beds and chairs on offer in the basic pine style. The shop is pretty god damn big as well, reaching very far back from the entrance. in a true warehouse fashion. The staff responded well to my approaches (not in that way) — ‘Yes I would like to buy a bed’ ‘Right this way sir!’ Good lads. And a good shop, with competitive prices and a distinct lack of competition in the area, I imagine they are making a pretty penny for themselves — and with friendly staff like Mike available, they probably deserve it!
