Flying Tiger Copenhagen — Local services in London

The store is okay, the Tiger store staff member was friendly and helpful but the security guard is atrocious, utterly unprofessional and unsatisfactory. When I entered the store, a security guard who was standing in the self service area and not by the door came marching toward me, staring at me.

I would like to also say that they've absolutely allowed me to save (on occasions spend way too much) on items that would cost an awful amount in other stores. It's a quirky store with lots of fun and smart ideas that you don't have to pay an arm and a foot for. I love some of their mini furniture ideas like the foldable cardboard stool, and the travel toothpaste looking containers. You'll also find a bunch of kitchen tools, plates and baking ware, plus kids, party stuff and...
