Wow! I just received my first roll back from Aperture Printing! Highly recommend their services. Really professional and helpful with such a quick turn around - in just 24 hours after dropping my roll off. Service was great. Covid measures in place with no entry to the store only open for drop off & pick up. Still selling film etc.

Got a couple of single use film cameras developed here; the man who served me gave me good information on there services that they offer and was a friendly, chilled environment for a Friday evening. I chose to have them developed and emailed to me and I got them on the Saturday afternoon even though it wasn’t to be expected until the following week, amazingly quick service! I thought it was quite expensive at £24 but this is also my first time getting film developed so maybe this is standard? Overall very happy

Very nice place and people. Scans came back quicker than the mentioned when dropping of the films (5 days rather than 8-9) and were really nice! Definitely would recommend

Not coming back, they ripped my film and spoiled almost all the photos. 😐 The service is also super slow. They never delivered within the timeframe and could be more organised. The man at the main desk could be friendlier, and it feels like we are doing him a favour. The Aperture camera shop, though, is lovely—great staff with tons of knowledge. Super helpful.

Good prices compared to Italy, so a good place where to stop on vacation if loving film photography (about 7€ less for a portra 800 compared to best Italian prices). Very cold employee. Development time quite long (at least 10 days...). Any film roll you want is there! I should have asked if they had any 127 left 🥲 Bought a portra 800, T-max p3200 (again way cheaper than what I'm used to) and Ilford delta 3200. Ilford prices are comparable to Italian ones.

Great independent film shop. Good array of stock which the staff can help navigate you through and the quality of processing is top tier. They offer an array of development and printing options for multiple film stocks. In the times I've used them turn around has been ~1week, with pricing comparable to or lower than high street options.

The best film processing and developing shop in London if not in the whole UK. Friendly staff, fast and always great quality work on both colour and black and white films. Highly recommend this shop for amateur and professional photographers.
