This was a really cute shop that captured a lot of the essence of Fred and George’s shop both in the book and movie. The bright orange paint and moving head with a bunny popping from the hat leave little doubt that if you’re in the business for mischief, you’ll easily manage it in this shop. Starting from the outside, the shop has a loud color scheme, easily the most noticeable shop in Diagon Alley. There’s an upstairs(viewed from the floor only) with all sorts of random gizmos, colorful boxes, and various contraptions. The Dolores Umbridge balancing her way on a unicycle is worth a stop in the shop all by itself. You can pick yourself up those much needed puking pastilles, the plushie pink and purple Pygmy puffs all the girls want, and speaking of what all the girls want(no Ron’s not here) there’s an ample supply of those deadly love potions. Don’t miss this one, even if it’s a bit cramped inside!

An amazing shop! So accurate in the way it looks compared to the Harry Potter movies. They sell lots of clothes, gizmos, gadgets, and candies. It’s a very aesthetically pleasing little place. Can get very crowded at times but a must-see. The architecture is incredible. Decorated perfectly and even the employees are in full costume.

We briefly stopped in to Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes. It’s one of the shops toward the entrance of Diagon Alley. It’s very true to the books and exactly what I imagined it would look like. My fiancé and I didn’t get anything from here(we already got plenty of HP souvenirs at the Owl Post!), but it was still fun to stop by. It does get crowded, but it’s still worth a quick look even if it’s packed.

You have to stop here. Looking for a Decoy Detonator? Dung bomb? They got you covered! This place is packed full of all the cool stuff you read about in the books, saw in the movies, and wanted to try out! It can get crowded so patience is a great virtue to use here. There is a lot to see, so make sure to look up. You can take some pretty neat photos outside too. There is also a back entrance to Quality Quidditch Supplies inside.

This shop was very overwhelming with all the merchandise, candies, and goodies to be had. It looks exactly like the movie and I liked the look of it. I didn’t buy anything, but I took tons of pics!

One of the first shops you visit as you step into Diagon Alley. It is of course, the novelty joke shop opened up by the pranksters themselves, the Weasley twins. I was sort of sad that neither Fred nor George were there, but no big deal… Oh wait, Fred’s dead actually. George is probably still mourning. Sorry, back to my review and what every Harry Potter fan wants to see… This is an enjoyable little shop that offers: ~ A balancing Dolores Umbridge on a unicycle that moves along a tight rope toy. I plan to buy one. I love Dolores, don’t ask me why. ~ The Decoy Detonator. ~ Plush glove of a Weasley Wizard finger. ~ Chattering teeth, an extendable ear, and whoopie cushions. ~ Bombtastic Bombs, or disastrous delight sweets. ~ Plush pink and purple Pygmy Puffs. ~ The Skydiving Snack Box: trick candy to make your friends sick. ~ Chinese Fortune Sticks: better than your average cookie fortune! ~ U-No-Poo: a constipation candy. Need to pick up one of these too! ~ I heard there’s a love potion, but may have over looked it. ~ Note: There’s also a back entrance into the Quidditch shop. Overall, this store nearly spot with what’s seen in the movie. I had fun from first sight! As I was browsing, I was simply amazed with just all the detail and colored décor all around. «Just like the movie!» If the store itself was just a little bit bigger, I would’ve loved it more, only it can be kind of tight. So my suggestion would be to arrive as early as possible to get some good pics in. But a definite, ‘must see’! Photos soon to come!
