02 is a showpiece landmark. For those of you who went in 2000 it has obviously changed now that the shoddy sideshows have gone. It houses a huge cinema complex n of course the heart which hosts entertainment from bands to singers. Because of the venue the ground floor has restaurants galore but no fast food like KFC or McDonald's. The usual coffee shops Costa n Starbucks. Phone shops (why?). The upper floor accessed by a grand glittering staircase n escalators has limited shopping largely catering for tourists to spend money on fashion goods. You are unlikely to find a Marks & Spencer or Waitrose or any other supermarket so bring your own sandwiches if you r doing the touristy thing. Parking though available is too too expensive. Best use the tube which is serviced by the Jubilee line. The bus service is excellent n will just about get you anywhere.
