Blu-Ray/DVD Stores in London?

[Dragun]

I'm visiting London next month. Are there any good stores for Blu-Rays and DVDs? Does BFI have a physical store?

Or am I just better off ordering things online and having them delivered to where I'm staying?

In the west end you've got a Fopp who can have some good deals at times and on St Martins Lane you have the famous Cinema Store whose basement houses import blu rays alongside uk releases.Usually they have new american releases a few weeks ahead of release but bear in mind they are extremely expensive, far cheaper online. Still worth a visit though it's a great store,i usually pick up a few magazines when i go.

Yes they do, and excellent it is too. It's on their Southbank site so perfect for catching a film too.

Used to love the cinema store but I can't justify their prices any more. Also good for running in to random celebs who are just shopping there.

Having just spent the weekend in London, I can say your best bets are mostly common high street stores such as Fopp and HMV. Cinemastore is nice but if you looking to purchase Blu-Rays its really is expensive often double the price of any online or high street retailer. BFI store is nice and has lots of quality titles to browse over.
