Top 10 Gift & Specialty Shops in Oxford, England
In the "city of dreaming spires," academia takes center stage. Gaze out at Oxford's world-famous university from the top of Carfax Tower before heading into the city's pedestrian-friendly streets. Follow your nose to the Covered Market for the makings of a picnic to enjoy at Headington Hill Park. Mix the historic and modern with visits to the 12th-century village church of Iffley and trendy Cowley's ethnic shops and music venues.

A wonderful morning making fudge in Oxford with Joe as our instructor. We had a great time making it for my wife’s birthday and Joe and Oshin in the shop were so welcoming, knowledgeable and we had a great laugh during the session. It’s great fun and so nice to taste their lovely flavours - and hope that yours comes out as good as theirs. Highly recommend as it was well worth the money and the venue puts on a great show, too!

This little shop is an absolute gem and full of beautiful ethical pieces, ideal for gifts or for yourself. 'Anything from Indigo' is always written on my Christmas list and this year my sister ordered me a Kula bag from their website and had it delivered. She said it was a very easy way to order and it arrived quickly with a little handwritten note in it. Nothing but good things to say about Indigo and the team!

This is a shop seeling a wide range of well priced bags, scarves and other fashion accessories plus clothes in Oxford Covered Market. You will find them on the far left - left from the Cornmarket that is - if you are walking up towards the High Street, which is a nice walk through the narrow lanes of the market. Ansari has helped me when in a rush, when having a hassle, when dithering on more than one occasion. When I say that I never normally review shops (as opposed to restaurants, pubs, hotels) because of a dislike of shopping you'll will perhaps understand that the staff here are very helpful in a understated, non-fussy way. I come out with what I want without in any way feeling pressured into buying. This is a very great skill. Thank you!
