Select & Save is the convenience store that I use pretty much every day. They are well stocked and…read morethey have a good range of products. One of my favourite magazines to read is called AdBusters and this is the only shop I can find it in. I tried WHSmiths and other major retailers and they never have a copy. So I just buy mine from Select & Save every time. They also have great offers on milk and bread and various other food stuffs. I like jelly and usually buy three pots from here for a Pound. They sell pretty much everything that you can buy in s supermarket that isn't a specialty item. The prices are competitive and are a lot cheaper than what you would expect from an independently owned business. Select & Save also have great offers on alcohol and has become very popular with local drinkers in the area. It is not open 24 hours, something that Moseley is desperately lacking, but it does stay open pretty late. They also have a pay point machine for filling up gas/electric cards and topping up your mobile phone account. There is sometimes a big queue in the shop and the owner can be a little slow and clumsy, but that's not his fault. I never usually have to wait too long for service.

It competes with…read morePak Supermarket across the street and ASDA a few block away but its range of products and ease of shopping make it an enjoyable spot to grocery shop in the neighborhood. Unlike the other supermarkets near it, it is not rushy and a wider range of Polish foods is offered. The prices are low, the produce is fresh but the candy section is limited.

East & West Supermarket…read more East & West Supermarket has an amzing range of spices, beans, lentils, pulses and lots of value buys like big bags of rice which you can buy in 5, 10 or even 25 kg sacks! It also offers large trays of 30 eggs (free range or caged) which for me is a winner as it saves having to make repeat purchases of such an essential item. I've also bought big bags of beans from E&W, so you can make a great Five Bean Chilli shopping here. Often there are specials on, that's when my sweet tooth takes over and I cannot resist some sweet breads or biscuits. Out front you'll find a range of fruit and vegetables and often some varities that are rather exotic. Service is swift and friendly and it's a joy browsing the isles to find many items you don't see in many of the larger supermarkets.

This is a large Morrisons store, located on Hagley Road in Edgbaston Village, a short ride on the…read moreWest Midlands Metro tram from Birmingham city centre. The store seems much more modern than I'm used to from Morrisons. The store is visually pleasant. As you enter the store, you'll be greeted by their Market Kitchen area where food counters are available offering a rotational daily selection of hot dishes, pizza and a couple of other options alongside the regular Morrisons Cafe offering. The facilities inside the store are good and also include Amazon Lockers. The selection in terms of groceries was reasonable. Prices were competitive but did seem fairly expensive for some items including Cravendale Milk, even out pricing some convenience stores in Birmingham city centre. The staff seemed friendly enough; there was a lack of them on the shop floor however to assist customers. 4* - An impressive Morrisons with an overall store look/feel that I hope they roll out across more of their supermarkets nationwide.

Spotlessly clean inside and offering a copious range of foods, drinks and household essentials,…read morethis handy corner shop stocks pretty much everything you're ever likely to need for day-to-day domestic life. The store's range of pet food and refrigerated products are particularly impressive and there's even a cash machine inside for those of you who, like me, regularly end up going out with an empty wallet. Unfortunately, Joshua's is incredibly cramped inside and offers no parking facilities whatsoever. A bus stop is situated just opposite and the aisles aren't the tightest in the world, but the store's claustrophobic feel does undeniably let down what is otherwise a very handy, pleasant and reasonably priced local shop.

They've recently started stocking lines from the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand, along with an array of more commonly found Indian, Caribbean and Oriental foods. I love stocking up on basics like bags of rice and coconut milk, but then can't help being tempted with all manner of authentic spices, pastes and snacks. Options is perfect for all those foodies out there hunting down that elusive ingredient for some recipe or other! It's on Northfield high street, so really central. Plus if you spend over £50, they offer free delivery. Perfect for doing your shopping in your lunch hour and having it delivered that evening, or just to save your arms lugging your goodies home! Also they're open late into the evening when parking outside's really easy. Plus the couple who run it are so lovely and enthusiastic, it's infectious! A true gem! October '12 edited to add that Options has now opened a mini supermarket opposite in the former job centre building. Even more goodies!

Frontier foods is a faithfull little shop at the the high end of Ladypool road…read more I often pass along the Ladypool Road on my comings and goings and there are many grocery stores offering fruit and vegetables but one shop which I have a special affection for is Frontier Foods. The name makes me think of a Wild West shop out on the plains and seems quite funny for a shop which sits on the border of Balsall Heath and Moseley. Often it's the produce which attracts me to one grocers or another and the stock is fresh and neatly layed out with a great deal of care, inside ths shop is small but orderly and the service is friendly. Ladypool Road offers a magnitude of fresh produce and if you're in a hurry and don't want to cue then, Frontier Foods is a great place to pick up a few vegetables or pieces of fruit.
