Jenners is an old-fashioned department store on Princes Street. It dates back to 1838 although the current building opened in 1895. It is a stunning Edinburgh landmark and is well worth a visit simply to enjoy the architecture and the nostalgic department store feel. The store has been family-owned for most of its history but it was acquired by House of Fraser in 2005. Thankfully it still enjoys a unique identity and you'll find a wide range of clothing and goods within, including a great toy department. It is something of a labyrinth within so you can get lost easily, be prepared to take your time browsing everything this store has to offer.
