I for one must disagree. overpriced is not exactly the word i would use. i find it no different then any other retailer on our high street and please don't disagree i shop all of the time in ED. I think it adds one more option for us to spoil ourselves, friends and family. Good for OB! finally a London born privately owned shop that has proven their success. As for miserable staff - sorry you thought so. I work in Islington and go to the shop there on a regular basis and have been met by bright smiles, a fun atmosphere and great help. I ventured into the ED shop on the weekend to be nosy and found it much the same everyone seemed to be having a good time in a packed out shop. I don't understand why people on here are always so negative. something good comes to town takes a chance on the market and more than likely will succeed. before you ask...no i don't work there... See you at Cafe Nero... if you can find a seat cause it is so busy all the time.
