Little Waitrose opens at South Bank Tower, Stamford Street
The borough of Southwark gained its first Waitrose branch on Thursday when the upmarket supermarket chain opened a convenience store in Stamford Street.
The 'little Waitrose' is located at the corner of Stamford Street and Rennie Street and is open daily 7am-10pm with an 8am start time on Sundays.
The store is part of the South Bank Central office and retail complex associated with the South Bank Tower development.
South Bank Tower is the new name for the extended King's Reach Tower building.
The new convenience store occupies the former site of the Kalmak Pharmacy which is now situated on the other side of the development, facing Upper Ground.
The new 'little Waitrose' store offers a click-and-collect service for items purchased from John Lewis.
