I read the passage differently: "Just Ollivander's left" means that's
the only errand he and Harry have left to do and "only place for
wands" doesn't mean that it's literally the only wand shop in
London/Diagon Alley, just that it's the best and therefore the only
one worth going to. It's like saying "only place for a steak in this
town." There may be other places to buy steak, but not in the opinion
of the speaker.
