Alice’s Shop

En face de Christ church college, la boutique de Alice aux pays des merveilles !
Pourquoi? car Lewis Caroll, l’auteur a écrit son romain quand il vivait à Oxford.
Bref, cette petite boutique vous propose tout un tas de produits dérivés: porte-​clés, vaisselles, déguisement, kit pour cupcakes, etc.
Un chouette endroit pour se ramener un petit souvenir.
Bémol: un peu chéro

Este local sobre Alicia en el país de las maravillas era antiguamente la tienda de caramelos que inspiró la Sheep Shop que Lewis Carroll describió en sus cuentos sobre Alicia.
Es un local no muy grande, pero tiene todo lo que un fan de Carroll o de Alicia desearía encontrar. Bueno, fans y no tan fans, porque cositas muy curiosas que a cualquier podrían gustarle.
Está en un sitio estratégico, frente al Christ Church, uno de los lugares más visitados de Oxford, así que lo normal es echar un vistazo en la tienda ya de paso.

A tiny shop chock full of Alice in Wonderland goodies.

Such a cute shop!
They have so many things that you can possibly think of related to Alice in Wonderland. So many knick knacks, stationery, greeting cards, post cards, note cards, bags, aprons, napkins, ties, books, toys, clocks, jewelry, and even china!
If I hadnt stop myself from buying everything I wanted there, i would have gone broke right then and there.
I ended up with a few of very cute magnets for me and my sister. :D

The Alice Shop was a must on my visit to Oxford, really the main thing I looked forward to. I practically skipped when I saw the red sign above the door. It is a very small shop, and the staff really didn’t aknowledge me until I checked out, but I didn’t mind much. There was a lot to see with great prices, and great price range. I didn’t have much room in my suitcase or I would have bought up the teapots! I may return before I leave and sweep up some more «Eat Me» chocolates. The Christ Church is across the street so you can continue your Alice Adventure there. Group tours also leave from the shop so be sure to investigate those. I didn’t have anyone else with me :(

Well im a huge alice in wonderland so even living in oxford was a huge dream come true for me. When i discovered this store i wasjust sad i didnt have enough money to buy everything! Books, dvds, teapots, puppets, ties, etc. They have it all! I left with many things and plan to return when I am back in oxford. There is one in London as well, but not the same as being in Oxford.

Alice’s Shop feels like you’re going down the rabbit hole… super tiny store filled w/​all kinds of Alice In Wonderland trinkets. Be careful or you’ll knock things over!
Tea cups, tea pots, tea sets, fridge magnets, pens & pencils, jewelry charms along w/​coasters, decorative plates & coasters… the list goes on & on
And for £60 you can even get your very own Alice attire (tights, headband & pervy guy sold separately)
Fantastic way to capatialize on Lewis Carroll’s creativity…
Drink Me? We sure did!

I quiant little shop, in fact its tiny, you couldn’t swing a kitten! Being a tourist attraction this can pose a slight problem, I guess it depends on when you are there but for me I was jammed in with an asian tour group who stood around taking pictures of every Chesire cat in the place! I couldn’t move and felt a little claustrophobic, I wasn’t gonna stick around so I very slowly inched my way out, pity cause it did seem like a nice little shop and Im sure if you like Alice in wonderland you will love it! If you arent a fan or arent familiar with it then you might want to give it a skip.

If you love Alice in Wonderland this is the place to be. Charles Dodgeson (Lewis Carroll) studied and taught at Oxford. Alice Liddell was the Dean of Christchurch’s daughter.
This shop (That used to be known as The Sheep Shop) was the inspiration for a whole chapter in the Alice in Wonderland stories, the old sheepshop, in Alice Through the Looking-​Glass. In real life, it was a little sweet shop just across the road form where the real Alice, Alice Liddell, lived over 140 years ago in Oxford.
You can buy anything associated with Alice here from books to china, games to clothes and jewellery and yet it is the shop itself that holds the fascination. Alice must have stepped in here and bought sweets. Take a look you won’t be disappointed.

Ahh, The Old sheep shop — or in real life, Alice’s shop. This inspired a lot of Alice through the looking glass and is a popular tourist stop. The real Alice that the story was based upon lived across the street from this — which was once a sweet shop.
This is a great stop just to have a quick browse around and to imagine Alice there buying her sweets!
If you love the book then you will love this place, if you don’t love the books then your bound to be a little under whelmed.
I am somewhere in between hence the three stars.
It is a very small shop selling lots of Alice goods — from stationary to aprons, from pillow covers to toys.
My favourite piece though and the main reason i think you should visit is to see the backwards clocks. i even bought one!
Its worth spending 5 mins to look around!

This is a great but crowded little shop celebrating everything related to Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass books. Carroll worked at Oxford University and was inspired by the town and surrounding countryside.
The shop sells souvenirs using the traditional illustrations, rather than Disneyfied film imitations, and everything is good quality, if verging on the rather bizarre.
You can get crockery, teatowels, watches, outfits (for little children), jewellery, books, pictures, ornaments and much more, all quite reasonably priced. I particularly like the Cheshire cat heat-​sensitive mug: when hot liquid is placed inside, the cat vanishes, leaving only his smile!
It also serves as a tourist shop celebrating all things British and there are some hilarious postcards in the series ‘How to be British’, as well as general Oxford memorabilia.
