Labour and Wait

High quality products. Amazing customer service. Fast, reliable shipping. It is very hard to over-stress the quality of Labour & Wait products; anything you buy is well worth the very reasonable price point it sells for.

Fantastic quality items and as with all their stores they are a pleasure to navigate and wonder at their goods. This new shop brings something that is sorely needed in the Marylebone area, that is great long lasting homeware and accessories at reasonable prices that are ethically made by craftspeople. Will be back!

beautiful selection of high quality home goods + the shopkeepers were lovely! if i didn’t have to worry about luggage space i’d have bought more

While I like this shop and its products/merchandise, I don’t like the astronomical prices. I realise shops have overheads, but to charge over £200 for a very simple design, cotton top is ridiculous. Of course, being in what might be considered a fashionable area, shouldn’t give shop owners the freedom to hike their prices up! I wonder what the same goods would cost if they were located in Leytonstone?

Beautiful shop, loads of lovely things new and old. Great atmosphere, really welcoming place. All I bought was one pencil and they wrapped it beautifully in brown paper and closed it with a sticker which was a really nice touch.

I popped in on my first visit to London and I have to say this was the highlight of my entire visit! London is pretty overrated if you ask me, but this shop redeems it. The selection of products is just amazing, it’s like I’ve walked into my version of heaven! The staff only make this better, super helpful (that includes directions!) and friendly, giving insights to products and recommendations made the shopping experience even more enjoyable. On top of all that the place is just a pleasure to be in, the shop is set out like no where else and has a welcoming feel to it. Cannot recommend enough, do yourself a favour and visit!

Absolutely lovely place - even being inside this store gives me inner peace

Absolutely 1st class presentation, and products. Heavily curated, clearly endearing and knowledgeable. Craft specialists par excellence... Not as OCD as Oxford's 'Objects of Use' which has an eye filling selection of things and beautifully laid out, but look don't you dare touch and disturb the name/price tags... Whereas the originals at 'Labour and Wait'... Go feel the quality, speak to the staff about the materials and the thinking... the stationary, the tools, and oh my the scissors... You get a sense of quality and usefulness... Great place, a template for what other stores should aspire to in ambition and purpose.
