Premium kitchen retailer Harvey Jones has opened its largest showroom to date at the luxury shopping destination Bicester Village in Oxfordshire. Spanning 1,200 square feet, the expansive space showcases four impressive kitchen displays, including Harvey Jones' Original style, Arbor, Hampton, and the recently introduced Slim Shaker model.

Designed to create an immersive experience, the showroom features high ceilings that highlight the brand's tall cabinetry, alongside stand out elements such as a pet parlour and a walk-in glass-walled pantry. The space, located on Bicester Avenue Home and Garden, sits alongside other premium retailers like Heal's, Lakeland and Pagazzi Lighting, enhancing the area's appeal for design-conscious shoppers.
The showroom's design integrates intricate details that reflect Harvey Jones' craftsmanship and innovation. Visitors can expect a stepped stone feature wall, internal alcoves, a wine rack over appliances, and striking islands that combine functionality and style. These include a high-low island with bench and bar seating, as well as a spacious square entertaining island complete with a BORA hob. The interior incorporates wallpaper by Milton & King, hardware from Hendel & Hendel, and prominently features the elegant pearl beige Miele wine chiller.
Harvey Jones' CEO, Vince Gunn, described the showroom's opening as a significant milestone for the brand, stating: 'This has been a fantastic new opening for Harvey Jones at a renowned quintessential luxury retail destination. This completes what has been a huge year for us, with two new premium locations, two showroom refurbishments and the rollout of our refreshed brand identity.' Gunn praised the Harvey Jones design teams for creating a luxurious yet functional space that reflects the company's 'Designed for life, built for living' ethos. He added that the move to Bicester Village was a natural evolution for the brand and expressed enthusiasm about welcoming visitors to explore the showroom.
The opening follows a period of uncertainty for Harvey Jones earlier in the year when the company's future appeared precarious as it sought new investors to avoid administration. The situation was swiftly resolved when the business was rescued through a pre-pack deal, allowing it to be acquired by a fund managed by RBC BlueBay Asset Management.
The new showroom not only marks a fresh chapter for Harvey Jones but also solidifies its presence as a leader in luxury kitchen design. By establishing itself at a high-profile destination like Bicester Village, the retailer demonstrates its continued ambition to evolve and deliver exceptional experiences to clients.
