About
Fortnum & Mason, of 181 Piccadilly in London, has a store at Bicester Village, on the edge of Bicester. By its own list of stores, all its other shops are in London, so this is the one within reach of Oxfordshire.
The store sells Fortnum's own treats and gifts, with a selection of hampers, gift boxes and wine gift boxes. One gift box, packed in the house colour of eau de nil, was made by its Piccadilly team for this store alone. Staff can personalise the labels on bottles with your own message, and can order items that are not on the shelves or arrange home delivery. The windows change with the seasons and new arrivals.
A short walk from the store, Fortnum's On The Go is a food and drink kiosk for a break between shops, with cakes, desserts, ice cream and hot and cold drinks; the menu changes with the season.
Hours change through the year. Until 26 November 2026 the store opens from 9am to 9pm, and from 10am to 7pm on Sundays. Over Christmas 2026 it opens from 8am on 27 and 28 November, closes at 5pm on Christmas Eve and is shut on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
Opening hours and season
Hours change with the season; Fortnum's Bicester Village page gives the current ones. Closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
