Some have a basic selection. In London, the choices are basically:

Orcs' Nest (lots of metal mostly fantasy, some RPGs, some wargames)
Playin' Games (family games and RPGs, limited wargames)
Leisure Games (mostly family games and RPGs, limited wargames)

plus wherever Games Workshop live, but you'd only go there for Games
Workshop products because they don't sell anything else.
