John Lewis Westfield Viewing area

Options
Hello, not sure if anyone is still lurking on this thread...but...in case.....

My dad is coming to visit shortly and I would like to show him the Olympic Park. I know there was a viewing area from John Lewis, Westfield, but they were charging £2 a go.

Does anyone know if it's still open and if they are still charging - I think it was on the 5th floor, near the Olympic shop at that time.

TIA

    Strange, I got in there a week ago and they weren't charging, but it was a Thursday afternoon and there was no-one else around, perhaps they only charge at busy times?

    Call John Lewis and ask them.
    Public appearances now involve clothing. Sorry, it's part of my bail conditions.

    Went here yesterday - was surprised the London 2012 is still open, with lots of stuff left, much of it reduced - but this is still JL so don't expect any massive bargains. Viewing area open and no charge.

    Check out the Entertainer store too, they still have some Olympic bits left very cheap (it was closed on the sunday I was there -oddly, for such a big shopping centre...).

    Best deals I've had have been there and Home Bargains, got me some Wenlock and Mandy mugs!
