This is a newsagents and food store based in Canning Town, and is just a 5 minute walk to Canning Town tube station, with good access by the Jubillee and DLR lines, as well as a mass of buses.
This was always a popular store for as long as i can remember. It used to be owned by someone else up until a few years ago, and the new owners have really improved the shop. It used to be really run down with only one half of the shop in operation. I think the other half was used for storage, which was a waste. Then the new owners came in and really gave it a vibrant look. With the fresh fruit and veg outside, it really looks like a market stall, until you go inside and it becomes a standard newsagents. This is apart from the half that used to be used as storage. now, that half is like a mini-market. It sells a wide range of foods as well as the standard milk and bread.
This shop also has a prepay service, so you can pay in your bills or charge you electric key, if you do pay as you go. It also sells mobile top up vouchers. If it only did oyster top ups, then it will be perfect, although there are 2 other shops around the corner that do oyster top ups, so its not that much of a big inconvenience. read more
