All of sudden, I got a tickets for this exclusive preview at new IKEA in North Greenwich on the day. Luckily, Mr. and I both were free and we drove there for only 3 hours of events. Apparently the tickets were only give out for friends and family of employees at IKEA.
There is lots of natural lights everywhere in the new store.
This is part of restaurant and it seems all ready.
Meatballs before everything!
The main reason I am happy about IKEA opens near my place that the cafe & restaurant is spacious and free wifi. Also, I can't complain the quality of food for the price, too.
It has been while we've been to IKEA and it was first time to see a shop themed interior in the showroom. It was interesting.
Lots of natural lights than other stores.
One of the reasons I hesitate to visit IKEA sometimes is that the unplanned purchase!
Yes, I didn't plan to buy anything but in the end, lots of things in our trolly on the way to the till. But it was worth because we got 15% off.
IKEA opens 7th of February. I am glad IKEA opens in the area for several reasons, on the other hand, I am a bit worried it will be much busier around the area. There are shops we regularly visit near IKEA and traffic will be nightmare without a doubt.
Unfortunately, there is always pro and cons.
