Marks and Spencer
UK department store
Marks and Spencer is a major British retail chain, commonly known as M&S, selling clothing, home goods, and food.
Founded in 1884, it became synonymous with reliable middle-class quality in Britain: I picked up some M&S sandwiches for lunch.
The food halls are particularly well-regarded, while the clothing carries connotations of sensible rather than fashionable.
