The pedestrianised Duke of York Square, just of the fashionable King's Road at the Sloane Square end, is an oasis of traffic-free calm. Modern glass fronted shops house chic boutiques, hair salons and coffee shops. You can combine shopping at Zara, Joseph, Myla, Kate Kuba and Liz Earle with a coffee at Patisserie Valerie or something more substantial at Manicomio, the Italian restaurant next door. Less hectic than the King's Road and away from the traffic fumes, it gets really busy on a sunny weekend when half of Chelsea descends on the square for some al fresco eating.
