What people say

"Do you like neon? Cake? Disco Balls? 80s music? Not only does God’s own junkyard have neon signs, but also a variety of oddball statues such as jukeboxes, gramophones, and giant stilettos. Not only is this hidden gem one of London’s trendiest and most quirky shops, it’s also an art gallery and neon museum featuring a café and a shop selling and renting signs. Their “Rolling Scones” Café offers a whole menu including afternoon tea. To many’s surprise, God’s own junkyard is FREE to enter; however, keep in mind that this is a small, independent family business, so please do your part by purchasing a coffee or a pin. "

"Off the beaten path of Walthamstow, this museum / merchandise shop is a kaleidoscope of colour, eccentricity, quirkiness and charm. A cafe and bar area is surrounded by psychedelic wonderland of neon lights, vintage signs, old film props, religious statues, disco balls and retro signs. Being in the colourful glow of the neon signs is so uplifting, cosy and fun and this welcoming warmth is reflected in the wonderful people that run God's Own Junkyard. Cleverly curated, it's a feast for the eyes! A truly unique experience, really feels like the heart and soul of Walthamstow."

"This cute cafe doubles as an extraordinary neon art exhibit. The best part? Entrance is completely FREE! Take the tube to Walthamstow Central Station and God's Own Junkyard is just a short walk away! This place is the perfect spot to catch up with friends or spice up your Instagram feed. While DSR cameras are not permitted, phones cameras are! Prepare to be amazed 😎"
