A fun Did you know fact Harrods on their top floor used to sell Wild Animals, from Wild Cats and Aligators. In the 1970s, 10 years before he became the USA president. Ronald Reagen purchased a Baby Elephant from Harrods. In 2014 Animal selling stopped in Harrods.
Looked like a fun day out for you guys. I only went to Harrods once to buy a present for my mum, a circular jigsaw puzzle. I thought it would be a challenge for her, it wasn't but she liked the bag.
How the other half live , that is so expensive , but it's good to experience it. I had an old neighbour who used to ask my grandad to get a Harrod's shopping bag for her every time he went to London and she would walk around with her handbag in the shopping bag so people would think she was rich 😂. No toilet at Prada,,, crazy. Glad you both enjoyed yourselves 🕊️
You would need quite a few days within the shop it covers over 1.1 million square feet and 330 departments covering six floors. I have friends who have worked and a couple who still work there and they've not seen everything. I have been using it for five decades and not covered even half of it. It's changed over the years and they move the departments around, you missed out on the food halls and there's a huge perfume hall on the ground floor
On your next visit to Harrods I would recommend the amazing afternoon tea in the Georgian restaurant which is newly re-vamped. And don't miss the famous Harrods Food Hall. The store occupies a 5-acre site (x 8 floors) and has 1.1 million square feet of retail space. The entire 160,000 square feet of the 3rd floor is devoted to Home and Furniture. My wife and bought I first sofa and chairs there because they had the lowest price anywhere in the UK at the time. You can find bargains at Harrods, occasionally!
This brings back memories, i used to go to holland park school, lived Lexington gardens, near earls court Kensington we would sneak out at lunch time to have lunch at Harrods food court 😊
I went to Harrods back in October. I ate at the Italian restaurant in there food Court. Then I checked out there men's store. I went to London to see the Bears play,
We only went to Harrods once, never again. The place is a Tourist rip off sad to say and there are so many wonderful places here where you can get value for money. Unbelievable that the upmarket cafe didn't have a toilet. Thoroughly enjoyable video though Chris, and it's so good to see Gladys with you. Keep safe 😊👍
Pall Mall is a very interesting place to visit, although you wouldn't be able to gain entry into the many Old boy's club's located on the Mall unless you are invited by a member. I've been to the Reform club on many occasions (Phyllis fogg, being one of the most famous names associated ) just round the corner on Jermyn street, St James, are shops solely catered for men, not one of these shops accommodate for women, again, part of the old boy's establishment and public school elites.
I used to work round theree and Harvey Nichols was the best value in the area if you went to the top floor as they liked to make food affordable for their staff
It's ok to spend hours wandering about, used to live and work in London for years. Definately panders to those who think a label defines them though. Everything you ever buy is designer, because someone has designed it. Bit sad tbh
I’m guessing the pistachio croissant was so expensive because it would’ve been made with real pistachio seeds and not just flavouring. Unfortunately one of the world’s most expensive seeds (nuts) around. Loving the videos guys really enjoyable and informative. Love to you both
Absolute joke the Prada cafe doesn't have a bathroom. Its an eating establishment charging premier prices for food and drink. Emperor's new clothes methinks.
Ahhhh I love both, but to be honest London has a lot more to offer I feel like! I love both bjt save Paris for when you go with someone special, it will make the experience better!
Chris tell your brother to edit the intro of the video a bit more carefully. I’ve seen you do a couple of the same intros but your brother kept both in 😂 maybe keep the Lv back and say he can have it if standards improve 😂
Street Food = wwwwaaaayyy better !!! But, Thanks for taking us on the "experience". Cracked me UP 😂 - no LOO !!! All the fake snobbery and no place to "take care of business".😊.
Avoid these tourist scam places. There are so many great places to eat in London. You could have gone to the Wolseley on Piccadilly for the same money. Great service fantastic building and excellent food.
Nice Blog. I don't think not having a bathroom is legal, you need to be at least able to wash your hands before you eat. Clearly if the main store is closed that's not possible. Anyone from the local authority care to comment ?
USA citizens can claimed back VAT on luxury goods….but they must be send to USA by retailer selling the goods. You cannot take purchase away with you like you could prior to Brexit.
They must have a toilet (what you call a bathroom) because if the place serves food it is the law. In England we say 'toilet' She may have misunderstood because if we say 'bathroom' it would have to have a bath in it.
It's common sense tho really, that he would be asking for a bathroom because he wanted to use the toilet &/or wash his hands, not because he hoped to have a bath at the cafe 😂
It’s all relative. When you have £100m in the bank and getting 2% interest on your cash it means you get £83k a month, after tax, before even getting out of bed. At that point spending £100 on coffee and cakes would be like you and I spending less than a penny on coffee and cakes. These places are not catering for us but for people who demand an abnormal experience to match their abnormal wealth. To impose your own life experiences as the standard to live by is a mistake.
@darkmatter6714 if you are truly wealthy I dont think you will go there but somewhere more discreet. Prada cafe is for people who want to put their pictures on social media. Not rich but weekend millionaire wannabes.
For such a cheap guy I'm happy he realise this it ain't India and Thailand where he was bargaining down the ppl when they already charging little to nothing. This is England mate pay up lol. pay the shit we ask for no cheap as bargaining 😂😂😂. Cash up or carry on lol 😂😂😂😂
She name Starbucks you don't need to say.is jot coffee at all. And you go to to store like that and you walk around you have no class and style. And stil you wanna go to fancy thing like that typical for American haha. But I like to give you tour of my city if you come back to belgium in gent

You made a good pitch for Sri Lanka, Bro. That should be the tourist destination of the year. I did follow your captivating vlog in Sri Lanka.
Always a good morning when Chris posts another Vlog.

🤣🤣🤣 thank you for watching! I appreciate you big time!
Interesting to see an American perspective on my home town. And your place name pronunciations are very amusing, bless you
Chris love your videos bro keep them coming always interesting.
Fantastic interactions with the staff, loved the guy that recognised your videos. Great vibes!!
Glad you enjoyed it! They were all good vibes forsure!
Nice present for your brother 🎉
Amazing Video Chris, I am from Brazil and allways see your video, you guys are a lovely couple and awesome!
Peak a dilly. 😂
I reckon Chris is doing it deliberately now. Funny as though and I always enjoy his videos.
Enjoy your Vlog, but next time if you go back to Harrods, please go and visit the food hall .it’s expensive ,but it’s amazing.
Thank you for sharing Chris! Your Vids are awesome
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 🙏🏼
Very fancy fancy Chris! I am glad you guys are enjoying London.
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼

Been living in London for over 30 years and I can't remember last time I went to harrods
Where you were used to be the Harrods suit department, I was there working from 81-93🎉
This brings back memories, i used to go to holland park school, lived Lexington gardens, near earls court Kensington we would sneak out at lunch time to have lunch at Harrods food court 😊

It's called the January sales dude
Man I had no idea bro
Thank for taking us to Harrods, it's a expensive vibe but fun to watch ❤
I agree! It's definitely a place for window shopping 😉
@@Travelwithchris Can I ask where your girlfriend got her sequin red trousers from?
I went to Harrods back in October. I ate at the Italian restaurant in there food Court. Then I checked out there men's store. I went to London to see the Bears play,

Harrods store is also famous from the scene in Mr bean you should watch it if you haven't he's a British icon some would say a world wide icon..

Hello Chris, Hello Gladys
👋 Thanks for watching!
Harrods used to have a spectacular brunch on Sunday...
I’m going to have to check it out!
Thanks Cris it’s like Macy’s department store in NYC
Yes exactly!!!
How long you in London for Chris?
Can't believe you didn't visit the Food Hall in Harrods.
I did but got told to not film :(
@@Travelwithchriswant me to go tune them up, Chris?

I'm so sad. I work at Harrods. I wish I could have met you.
🙂 hi chris!

It’s January sales over here every year in the UK 🎉
Man I love them!!!
Gladis is so pretty.
Thank you!
@@Travelwithchriswant me to tune this fella up, Chris?
I think they can see you coming 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Hopefully you crushed 6 beers after all this tea partying 😂 that wallet was 🔥

Wow thanks for sharing!
Bruh....i would eat breakfast at any Wetherspoons pub for breakfast over a Prada Cafe 😂😂😂😂
Ahahaha true! Better bet!

I like your energy Chris. You’re a very cute guy, enjoy your trips.
A Prada cafe?!?! Thats sick lol
Awesome wallet for the bro, kinda my style too if i were to of bought a wallet 😂
Yes bro!!! Thanks a lot for the support man, I had a good time in here!
I’m guessing the pistachio croissant was so expensive because it would’ve been made with real pistachio seeds and not just flavouring. Unfortunately one of the world’s most expensive seeds (nuts) around.
Loving the videos guys really enjoyable and informative. Love to you both
Maybe but a bag of themis less than £3
@ I guess so, not sure why I was trying to justify the inflated price for a pastry.
How many nuts are in a less than £3 bag?
Always a good day when Chris uploads!! Love from Brooklyn NY
Appreciate the love from Brooklyn! 🙏🏼
I thought Algiers was one of your top three
I never go to London but I ever hear in book one, book two, book three, book four and book five.
🤘
💪🏻❤️
Heidi ho my new friend! ☕💪😎🐾
Thanks so much ❤️🙏🏼

Yes crazy right!!!
Knightsbridge - arab billionaire central
I need to go check that out!
@@Travelwithchrisyou are there 😂
@@Travelwithchris Knightsbridge is the area you were in. Harrods is in Knightsbridge 😂
Surprised you didnt go into the chocolate hall of Harrods, pt2 is needed
I really like Gladys.
She helps make you a "better man". 😊.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video. I agree with you!
I’m on an OK budget and have to pick one city to visit - London or Paris. Which one would you recommend for most stimulation/experience/bang for buck?
Ahhhh I love both, but to be honest London has a lot more to offer I feel like! I love both bjt save Paris for when you go with someone special, it will make the experience better!
@ 🙏🏼 You hear a lot more people bigging up Paris than London and I always wondered if they were speaking from experience or a perception
Yes I’ve been in HARODS ,,,, I LIVE DOWN THE STREET ,,,,, BUT SELFRIDGES IS BETTER,,,, AND FIRST THOUGHT OF IN CHICAGO.
Coz it's.the best shop in the world 🌎
❤️🙏🏼
Liked👍✔️ Commented💬✔️ Loving❤✔️
Thanks 🤗
Man I like the lady waitresses with snake tat in Prada caffé.
Yes she was so kind!

I paid $23 for one scoop of ice cream at their shop
In Prada? Crazy!!!

I am in London for long time but never been there! ... Not for me :)
Ralph Lauren café is better I guess.
Where is that one?
Seems like all the employees are on their phones. I could see them out of work if they worked for me.
They must have a toilet (what you call a bathroom) because if the place serves food it is the law. In England we say 'toilet' She may have misunderstood because if we say 'bathroom' it would have to have a bath in it.

@@a.s3523 Americans do say bathroom when they mean toilet. British people would not say that we would say, toilet because there is no bath there.
What a lovely way to spend your NYE. A nice treat for you both and well deserved. Here's to a happy, healthy and prosperous 2025 to you both x
Thank you! I wish you an amazing 2025 also!
Self-ridges?😂
🤣🤣🤣
Regent Street is better
Prada cafe is for people with more money than sense,£11.50 for a croissant is taking the piss.
Yeah true
The places you went to are all scammy places and the prices are ridiculous at the prada cafe. I know London is expensive but the prada cafe is a joke

Ayyy thanks bro!
London...a dystopian stabby nightmare
I loved it!
Possibly,,,,,but it’s not the best,,,,, TRY SELFRIDGES.
Get your tax back at the airport, or buy it tax free in the airport tax free
