One New Change — Local services in London

A great place to shop, eat and unwind.

When I first discovered One New Change I couldn't believe how empty it was, where was everybody else? I decided it must have been a one-off because there are so many great shops here. I spent a few hours wonder in and out of some much loved high street fashion stores and there wasn't any of the usual craziness that exists in other shopping malls.

The next time I came back it was the same again. And the next time, and the next time.

I still can't believe that I have finally found a nice, sophisticated place to go shopping in London with any of the usual stress. It can get a little buy around lunchtime in the week as it is close to the city but other than that, it is fab!

The Topshop here is my absolute favourite, it is big and always has a the newest items in stock. I am guarenteed to find the dress that's needed whenever I go there.

Not only is there a great selection of fashion stores, there is a wonderful array of places to eat from Wahaca to Burger & Lobster. There is also a great bar at the top with gorgeous views across London, a great way to unwind after a spot of shopping. This bar does get a bit busy on Thursday and Friday nights though.

Go and enjoy it...

I'm sure this place serves a purpose - the most recent for me was as a shelter from the rain while I sought out weather appropriate gear to continue my wheelchair-bound wanderings - and of course, there are a few shops, but the whole thing feels utterly soulless, like something out of a dystopian sci find flick. It's also so open to the elements that hanging around is really not all that inviting, because it's blinking cold.

I realise that it's mostly there to act as a convenient shopping area for the City workers that surround it, but it's worth saying that improvements could be made. For example, there's a perfectly good M&S Simply Food downstairs. But good luck getting in if you're in a wheelchair, as it has massive heavy doors, no push button operation, and no staff to help. I have to more or less barge the door with a foot up to get in.

Absolute best bit of the whole place is having security staff who see you and want to help, instead of being suspicious. This is such a bonus if you're a wheelchair chair user. For example, now I know the problem with getting into M&S, I would ask one of them to escort me down and open the door, and know that they're lovely enough to do so...

One New Change is a fantastic shopping centre located in the heart of London, and I recently had the opportunity to visit it. The shopping centre has a modern look and feel, and it is well-maintained, making it an inviting place to shop, dine, and explore.

One of the standout features of One New Change is its stunning views of St Paul's and the surrounding city. The views are breathtaking and are sure to enhance your shopping experience. In addition to the stunning views, there is a diverse range of shops and restaurants available, catering to a wide range of tastes and preferences.

One notable addition to the shopping centre is the F1 Arcade, which offers a unique and exciting experience for visitors, even if you're not the biggest fan of racing. It is a great way to take a break from shopping and try something new, and I highly recommend checking it out.

Overall, One New Change is an excellent destination for shopping and entertainment in London. Whether you're looking to explore the latest fashion trends, dine at great restaurants, or just take in the stunning views, there is something for...
