Fred and George Weasley worked for several years to develop a line of comic magic items which they hoped to sell through their company, Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. They were putting together order forms during the summer of 1994 with the hope of selling the items at school, but their mother was thoroughly digusted with the whole thing and made them throw the forms away.

Hogwarts students favourite shop. Quality Quidditch Supplies displayed a full set of Chudley Cannons robes in the front window.

A narrow and shabby little shop. The window displays a faded purple cushion upon which sits a single wand. The walls are lined floor to ceiling with thousands of narrow boxes. The furniture consists of a single spindly chair. Ollivander's closed shortly after the beginning of the Second War. No one knows where Mr Ollivander went.

Madam Malkin is a squat, smiling witch wearing mauve robes. Madam Malkin's is next door to Flourish & Blott's. Hogwarts school robes are to be found here. During one summer sale, they sold robes which are spangled, self-ironing, beautifying, slimming, fattening, lengthening, temperature-adjusting, and plain, with a free frog-skin belt with every purchase.

Manager is a bit brusque, but then he does have to deal with strange and bothersome things like books that bite (The Monster Book of Monsters), books that are completely invisible (The Invisible Book of Invisibility), and book signings by Gilderoy Lockhart, who draws quite a crowd which can get a bit unruly at times.

A cute little ice-cream parlour reopened by the son of Florean Fortescue and renamed in his honour.

A dark shop which, according to the sign, sells tawny, screech, barn, brown, and snowy owls.

This shop, the closest one to the entrance from the alley behind the Leaky Cauldron, sells all sorts of cauldrons. Outside the shop, a stack of them shines in the sun, under a sign that reads:

Cauldrons
All sizes
Copper, Brass, Pewter, Silver
Self-Stirring
Collapsible

The Apothecary sells potion ingredients. It's a fascinating shop crammed with all sorts of interesting things. There are barrels of slimy stuff lined up on the floor and jars of all sorts of powders, herbs, and the like along the walls. Bundles of feathers, fangs, and claws hang from the ceiling. The whole place smells very bad, a mixture of bad eggs and rotten cabbage. The name of this shop is Slug & Jiggers Apothecary.
