IKEA locations UK: Where are the shops near me?
IKEA is known for being a one-stop shop for all your home furnishing and meatballs needs, so shoppers will want to know where their nearest branch is.
The Swedish-based retailer currently has a total of 22 sites across the length and breadth of the country.
The company, which was founded in 1943, sells everything from meatballs to desks, curtains and blinds to outdoor lighting.
Ikea is said to be looking to move away from its big warehouse stores and into smaller premises in the coming years.
Its Tottenham location closed its doors in August last year as the retailer looked to overhaul its London stores.
The retailer opened a smaller store in Hammersmith in February and has plans to open an Oxford Street store, on the former site of Topshop's flagship store in autumn 2023.

Ikea shopping tips
It would be hard not to find a bargain at Ikea, but it's not the only budget retailer out there.
That's why it's always worth having a shop around before you commit to a purchase.
And if your favourite part about visiting the store is the restaurant - you can get the Swedish retailer's famous meatballs for a fraction of the price elsewhere.
Ikea doesn't often host sales - but when it does, it goes big.
Most Ikea items are already listed at low prices so unlike other retailers, the store only runs a couple of sale events each year.
There's usually one in the summer and another in the winter.
Before you splash out at the store, there is a way to equip yourself with some spends.
Ikea lets you trade back your unwanted furniture in exchange for gift cards and vouchers to use in-store - you can find more information on the chain's website.
