A small but well-kept inn and pub, this has been the gateway to Diagon Alley for the past century.

It is most often frequented by members of the lower and middle classes.

A book shop, operating in the north side of Diagon Alley since 1454. Books are crammed into every nook and cranny, with a signing by more acclaimed authors held every few months.

A newer addition to the street, Fudge & Son sells myriad desserts, both made on site and imported from abroad. The shop is always scented with something baking, and boasts a half-dozen wrought iron tables for those who prefer to sit while they eat.

Located on the north side of Diagon Alley (though with a linked entrance in Hogsmeade), it is the only magical bank in Britain, and is run by goblins. Gringotts is an imposing snow-white multistoried marble building that towers over the neighbouring shops. It is the place where British witches and wizards store their money and other valuables, in heavily-guarded vaults miles below ground. Description credit to the HP wiki.

The newly-built House of Lytton is a rather ostentatious affair inside and out, arranged over several storeys. With a specialisation in enchanted and haute couture fashion, the store contains floors of fashion plates, sample dresses, accessories, and fabrics. In-house designers are on hand at all times, as are assistants, ready to make alterations or complementary tea, Behind the fashionable shop there is a rather more hectic atelier where the designs are made into reality by a team of talented seamstresses.

The original site of one of the most well-respected wandmaking franchises in the world. Boasting two floors and a generally better organized atmosphere than it's Hogsmeade counterpart, it is the primary wand shopping destination for families based in England and Wales. The shop is closed on Sundays and Mondays.
