It’s been two years in the making, and on October 18, Ballantynes will reopen its Lichfield Street entrance. Cityscapers heading down to explore the new homewares department will be stoked to see exclusive concept stores Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm also calling the department store home.

The Florist at Ballantynes will have you sorted for whatever occasion life throws at you, while the sweet offerings at the swanky new Chocolate Library are a great excuse to treat your favourite person – as well as yourself!

Ballantynes’ lux Lichfield Street offering is rounded out by Kin, an elegant new café and wine bar. Each item on the expertly crafted menu has a wine match to boot, all of which can be purchased from the store on your way out (assuming you’re within their opening hours!). The café’s deli is also serving up a selection of take-home meals to free up some valuable shopping time in your busy day.
