Owner Akbar Khan, who fled a family wholesale business in Kabul, opened the shop in 2000; his restoration of its 1930s glass-lensed ceiling, similar to one at Eltham Palace, later won him a Historic England heritage award.
Local tip
Look up as you browse. The restored glass-lensed ceiling, flooding the store with daylight, is the real draw here and easy to miss if you're focused on the aisles of cut-price stock.
