Advantages: Plenty of choice

Disadvantages: very busy particuarly in holidays

Oxford Street is possibly one of Englands busiest shopping districts, and understandibly considering the wide variety of retailers and restaurants and cafes and offices as well as appartments. the street also gives access to the world famous Bond Street and also Regent street. the area is home to hundreds of shops from a large Selfridges and John Lewis to the flagship store for Topshop and H&M and River island. the cafes and restaurants range from several starbucks to pizza expresses.
the street itself is really easily accesible via public transport-buses or the tube, and also by taxi or by bike or by foot. however there are no cars allowed up the street but there are many carparks surrounding the area for example at the back of john lewis that offer very good service. a slight disadvantage would be the amount of traffic about despite these restrictions and crossing the road can often be quite dangerous.
the street is particuarly delightful at christmas time when decorated head to toe in christmas lights and trees.
it is well worth a visit and will certainly provide a successful as well as enjoyable shopping experiance

Summary: well worth a visit
