Looking for the best shops in Putney? Whether you’re moving to the location or just here for a visit, it’s always useful knowing what shops are in the area!
If you’re travelling to London or looking for the best neighbourhood in the city, you’ll want to know where the best towns are and what they involve.
Living in Putney (in my biased opinion) is one of the best areas in London, and one of the best things? The shops in Putney.
No, we don’t have a huge shopping mall, but we do have the Putney Exchange, cute local markets, tons of restaurants and bars, a few clubs, endless pubs…and we’re right next to the River Thames.
So, without further ado, let me explain the best shops in Putney.

I’m Jennie, and I specialise in helping travel newbies step out of their comfort zone and see more of the world (aka, live their best lives).
My blog was created from my love for travel and the aim to get you on the road with nothing but confidence and a whoooooole lot of excitement 🥳.
Short on time? Here are some of my travel must-haves!
- A portable power bank: don’t get caught short and lose your phone battery whilst travelling! If you’re solo travelling, you’re going to rely on it to get you from A to B.
- A wheelie backpack: I invested in my first wheeled backpack a year ago and I am NOT looking back. Gone are the days when I lug 20kg round on my back!
- Filter water bottle: So many countries have undrinkable tap water. This water bottle allows you to drink water from any tap, stream (or even puddle!) safely AND you’re saving the environment!
- Worldwide travel adapter: A must have if you’re travelling to multiple countries!
- Speakers: Want to make friends in your hostel room easily? Be the one with the music.
