Bank holidays in Stratford-upon-Avon are like a plot twist in a Victorian novel. They’re unpredictable, and they always involve a surprise. Most of the time, the M&S follows Sunday hours (10:30 AM to 4:30 PM) on a bank holiday.
But here’s the thing: it’s not a law. The store managers have a small, beautiful power to adjust times. My advice? Check the official website before you set off. Trust me, you don’t want to be the person who drives from three towns over only to find a sign saying “Closed for Coronation.”
I speak from experience. I once turned up on a random Tuesday in May, convinced it was a bank holiday, only to find the shop open but with an “Easter egg reduced” section that smelled faintly of regret. It was a lesson in humility.
