Excellent map shop in Covent Garden. The British section is downstairs; they stock the full range of Ordnance Survey maps as well as a selection of London A-Zs. Upstairs is an excellent selection of international maps, including most state and many local US maps. A large map table makes it easy to examine maps in detail before buying.
They also have a cafe on the ground floor at the back, run by the Natural Retail Company. Filled jacket potatoes or jacket sweet potatoes are all around £5, as are the wraps. Around a third of the menu options are vegetarian. Sandwiches are around £3.40 and drinks are £2-4.
