Below you will find some places on wizarding streets

Diagon Alley

Eeylops Owl Emporium - A shop that sells birds ranging including an assortment of owls. Hedwig, Harrys snowy owl was also purchased here by Hagrid.

Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor - An ice cream shop where Harry spent much time of his summer during homework during his third year. With the help from Florean Fortescues himself, who apart from knowing a great deal about medieval witch burnings, gave Harry free sundaes every half an hour.

Flourish & Blotts - All the books on the student's book list can be found here. Probably the largest wizarding book shop in England, you can find many Hogwarts students here purchasing their books for the upcoming school term. The manager of the shop is a bit eccentric, and should be avoided since he is usually in a bad mood because of problems with books diapering of in case of the Monster Book of Monsters, books eating books.

Gambol & Japes - A joke shop that sells tricks and practical jokes items.

Gringott's Wizarding Bank (bank) - A bank run by goblin with top notch security. You'd be crazy to try and break into this bank.

Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions - The place to buy Hogwarts school robes.

Magical Menagerie - A wizard pet shop, with pets to be purchased or healed. Basically the Petco of the wizarding world. Crookshanks was also purchased here by Hermione during her third year at Hogwarts.

Ollivander's - The oldest wand shop in Britain, and the best around. Run by Mr. Olivanders himself, the shop has been open since 382 BC, and is still kicking. All witches and wizards stop here their first here at Hogwarts to pick their wands, or should I say let their wand pick them.

Quality Quidditch Supplies - Harry's favorite shop in Diagon Alley, which sells quidditch supplies. You can always find the latest brooms, and Quidditch supplies here.

Stationary Shop - Next to Quality Quidditch Supplies. Wizards and Witches alike purchase their quills and parchment here whenever their running low.

The Apothecary - Potion ingredients can be found here. Many Hogwarts students make it a habit to stop here during holidays to re-stock on potion ingredients for Professor Snapes class.

The Leaky Cauldron - This pub located in London is a gateway into Diagon Alley from the Muggle world. Rooms for rent are available here, as Harry once stayed there while escaping the Dursleys for the summer. This fine establishment is run by Tom, a kind old man with a tad few to many teeth missing.

Weasleys Wizard Wheezes - The newest shop on Diagon Alley, this joke shop is owned by none other than our to favorite mischief makers the Weasley Twins, Fred and George. We can expect great things from them.

Hogsmeade

Dervish and Banges - Equipment shop.

Gladrags Wizardwear - A shop that sells many things, among them, strange socks including at pair which screamed when they became to stinky purchased by Harry Potter of Dobby the house elf.

Honeydukes sweetshop - A candy store selling not your ordinary sweets. Expect things like Fizzing Whizbees and Acid Pops, and Berti Bots Every Flavored Beans. All hog warts students make it a habit of stopping here while at Hogsmeade to pick up a few sweets to take back to school to last them tell the next weekend.

The Hog's Head - An old grimy and dingy pub that is so filthy that the ground seems to be earth when in reality its dirt thats accumulated over the centuries. The bay windows are encrusted with so much grim that no day light can come through, and instead the Hogs Head is lit with stubs of old candles. It smells strongly of goat, and the customers are mysterious clocked figures from head to toe and resemble death eaters and Dementors. The Hogs Head is also where the first meeting of D.A. (Dumbledores Army) is held.

The Three Broomsticks - A common location for Hogwarts students to visit while at

Hogsmeade

 The Three Broomsticks is run by the very pretty, and kind Madam Rosmerta. Customers at The Three Broomsticks range from Hogwarts students and teachers, to Ministry Of Magic Officials including the Minister of Magic himself. This is probably the most visited place by children except Zonkos Joke Shop, because of the great service and butterbeers.

Zonko's Joke Shop - The name says it all. A great place for buying tricks, including the infamous dung bombs. The most visited location by Hogwarts students, and also a home away for home for the Weasley twins and Lee Jordan.

Knockturn Alley

Borgin & Burkes - A store that deals especially with the dark arts, and a common stop for the Malfoy family. Borgin & Burkes sells many odd and dangerous things such as: A withered hand on a cushion which is the Hand of Glory which is given a candle by the owner it will give light its best friends of thieves and plunderers, a blood stained pack of cards, a staring glass eye, evil-looking masks, an assortment of human bones, rusty spiked instruments hang from the ceiling, a necklace of opals which had claimed the lives of nineteen muggle owners to date.
