First, the official scoop: the M&S Foodhall in Charlton typically opens its doors at 8:00 AM from Monday to Saturday, and 11:00 AM on Sunday. But here’s the fun part—those times aren’t set in stone like a Roman column; they can shift faster than a sale on cashmere jumpers.
Why does this matter? Because timing is everything. Pop in at 8:01 AM on a Tuesday, and you’ll feel like a royal explorer discovering a clean, quiet aisle. The bakery section is still steaming, the cheese counter is fully stocked, and there’s zero queue at the self-checkout. It’s a small victory that sets a triumphant tone for your whole day.
Why You Should Plan Your Visit (Yes, Really)
Planning a trip to M&S might sound about as exciting as sorting your sock drawer—but trust me, it’s the secret sauce to a brilliant week. Imagine arriving at 4:45 PM on a Saturday, only to find the last pack of the Dine In for £12 deal has vanished. Tragic, right?
Instead, aim for mid-morning on a weekday. That’s when the new PER-U-LEEN olives (yes, that’s what the label says—and yes, they’re divine) are being restocked, and the staff have time to recommend a cheeky wine pairing. You become the VIP of your own shopping trip.

And let’s not forget the holiday gloss. On bank holidays, the Charlton store might open an hour later or close an hour earlier—so check online first. Nothing kills the fun like a closed door, a raincoat, and a desperate craving for their melt-in-the-middle puddings.
