Opening hours this week

These are the Golders Green hours the shop lists for the week of 9 November:

Day Golders Green hours
Monday 9 November 7am to 10pm
Tuesday 10 November 7am to 10pm
Wednesday 11 November 7am to midnight
Thursday 12 November 7am to midnight
Friday 13 November 7am to 3.25pm
Saturday 14 November 5.45pm to midnight
Sunday 15 November 7am to 10pm

The Friday and Saturday times move each week. The shop says they “update automatically based on London Shabbos zmanim”, so Friday closing gets earlier through the winter and the Saturday evening opening follows the end of Shabbat. Check its contact page for the current week before a Friday or Saturday trip.

Where it is and getting there

The new store is on the corner of Golders Green Road and Limes Avenue; the firm calls it the Limes Avenue site. It is not at the old shop on Russell Parade, which was gutted by fire in May.

Kosher Kingdom’s own directions:

  • Tube: Brent Cross (Northern line), walking via Highfield Avenue.
  • Bus: routes 83, 183, 210 and 240 stop nearby on Golders Green Road.
  • Car: close to M1 junction 1 and the Brent Cross roundabout. The shop says there is street parking.

Kosher Kingdom loyalty card

The loyalty card scheme carried on through the closure and works at both branches. According to the shop’s loyalty card page:

  • Joining is free. Fill in the form on the website and the card and key fob are posted to you within seven days.
  • Points: one point for every full pound spent; 133 points equals £1 of store credit. Points are not given on carrier bags, gift cards, Round the Pound donations or Delightfully Fresh pre-checked vegetables and herbs.
  • Monday discount: cardholders get 10% off frozen food, greengrocery and wine every Monday. It does not apply to items already on promotion or some low-cost staples.
  • Loyalty prices: green Loyalty Price tags in store show items that are cheaper when you scan the card.
  • Lost card: request a replacement through the Lost Card form on the same page. It can take up to two weeks; the old card is switched off and the points move to the new one.
  • Family members can share one card account. There is no app yet; you need the physical card or fob.

The Edgware branch

The other branch, at 2-3 Glengall Road, Edgware HA8 8TD, stayed open throughout. Its hours this week are slightly different from Golders Green: 7am to 10pm Monday to Wednesday, 7am to midnight on Thursday, 7am to 3.25pm on Friday, closed on Saturday and 7am to 10pm on Sunday. It is a short walk from Edgware station, and uses the same phone number, 020 8455 1429.

The fire in May

The Golders Green branch shut after a fire on Golders Green Road on 27 May. The London Fire Brigade’s incident record says it took the first of 59 calls at 6.47am. Fifteen fire engines and around 100 firefighters attended, and the fire was under control by 2.27pm.

The Brigade’s record says:

  • the ground-floor shop was destroyed
  • a storage area at the back partly collapsed
  • part of the first floor and a small part of the second floor were damaged
  • the flats above and nearby homes were evacuated as a precaution
  • nobody was hurt

Fire investigators, working with the Metropolitan Police, said the fire was not believed to be suspicious.

Five months from hoarding to tills

Rather than rebuild on the parade, Kosher Kingdom put up a new store on the Limes Avenue corner. It posted a dated photo record of the build on its website:

  • 19 August: hoarding goes up
  • 26 August: site clearance and groundworks
  • 8 to 10 September: the frame goes up and cranes lift the roof
  • 15 September: shopfront glazing
  • 16 September: fit-out begins
  • 7 to 8 October: exterior finished
  • 15 October: doors and the opening banner go in
  • 19 to 21 October: fridges, counters, checkouts, trolleys and the first shelves
  • 1 November: the store opens
