Berwick St W1 - sister ray etc - lots of good stuff. The whole rd is good.

Honest John's on Portabello rd for lots of good soul and jazz.

Rough Trade near portabello rd or Brick lane good for indie music etc

Near Chring Cross Road/Cambridge Circus.It could be a long walk otherwise.

As FlipTop said...Fopp is excellent (even has a reasonable stash of vinyl upstairs). Also great for books.

I haven't been to Fopp in years - good to read it's still going.

Am I right in thinking it's Rough Trade that has Naim gear installed as listening booths ?
