The default weekly shop for a decent stretch of Chelsea. It's a chain, obviously, but the useful kind: proper groceries, everyday essentials and a wine aisle that quietly rescues half the dinner parties in SW3, at prices that look almost reasonable by King's Road standards. The mid-King's Road position means it folds neatly into a Saturday errand run rather than demanding its own trip.

It's a chain, but the one Chelsea actually leans on — a proper weekly shop without leaving the King's Road.
