They regularly have instore promotions on wines, beers and spirits and the staff are very helpful and friendly. There is a cigarette counter and a good selection of soft drinks aswell.

Overall a great smaller branch of Wine Rack that serves the local community perfectly.

In this respect it stocks a good…read morevariety of wine from around the world - including a particularly good selection from the New World. The staff are on hand for a recommendation and I have never got the sense that they were seeking to push a dud bottle onto me. Quite the contrary in fact - all the bottles I have bought here have been excellent. In addition to the wine, a good selection of spirits and beer is on offer. The beer isn't just your run of the mill stella. Instead it is a selection of bottled beers from both the UK and overseas which are more unusual. I haven't worked my way through them all (yet) but there are no doubt lots of enjoyment to be had doing so. Of those sampled so far the beer brewed by the Redchurch Brewary has been particularly good, if a little pricey.

Highlights: Kernel Brewery beers--small selection of IPAs and, if I remember correctly, Pale Ales. Sadly, no Porter... Meantime has a solid presence here! There is Porter and Stout for me. :) Brooklyn Brewery: Lager and Choco Stout. Yum. Ridge: no Lytton Springs or any other red at present, but a Chard, if you're up for it. The store is cosy and attractively filled with wine, beer and spirits. Props to them for stocking a decent assortment of single malts and Elijah Craig, a bourbon I very much enjoy. They need to ditch the "gold" Cuervo as it's rot-gut and stock some El Jimador or Don Julio, if they can. Casadores is my jam, but "I'm not in Kansas anymore, Toto", so I know that shipping over good tequila is super expensive, and, therefore, a financial drag. Jensen, a locally distilled gin, was looking pretty interesting at 27.99 a bottle, but I'm still in love with Sipsmith, so when the bloom is off that rose I'll be checking J out. Having described (maybe not well enough?) what I don't like in a Chard (read: not buttery, not oaked) I was recommended a few different wines that might fit the bill. Sadly, the one I did pick out of those recommended is somewhat oaked and buttery with hints in vanilla. It's an interesting wine, but not the "old world" mineral-like white Burgundy I had hoped for.

I visited for the first…read moretime tonight and was warmly received with a tasting of a couple of bottles of red that had been opened. It is always reassuring when the proprietors are willing to let you try before you buy! The wine is arranged by style, making a welcome change from the traditional regional format. This encourages you to move away from tried and tested favourites and into something new. I found a couple of interesting bottles to take home with plenty of others left on the shelves. The beer is hidden around the corner in the shop and appears to be a fast moving regularly changing selection from both the breweries that are nearby (Meantime and Hop Stuff) and those from further afield. Again a selection now sits in the fridge. All of the above points to a good shop. What made it excellent for me was the service. Friendly, informed and engaging - I can't wait to go back already.

This was actually a bit of a drawback for me as I would have preferred to have some preselected flights on offer as a simple way to walk newbies through the beers and also demonstrate how they can evolve. That said, it's still a great spot to try some craft beers. Seating is limited so arrive early or late to score a seat once the crowds have died down!

It is virtually a high temple of booze. The selection of spirits is staggering-rare select bottles of malt whisky, vodkas and gins I've never heard of and a fantastic selection of bottled beers, not just real ales but beers from around the World. So, if you want a beer from, say Iceland I'm pretty sure they can oblige. The staff are friendly and to their considerable credit they don't serve street drinkers which is a real problem in this area. Highly recommended.

Lavi Convenience is a local off-license in the Earlsfield area. A refreshing change to one of many…read moresimilar businesses in London is that Lavi prepares a weekly brochure containing specials on wines and food. The selection on the whole is pretty good, though the lack of fresh groceries makes it not much more than a place to grab munchies and a drink or two. Tobacco, lotto and scratch cards are also readily available, and its central location makes it convenient. There is not much to speak of service-wise at Lavi convenience store. Not much recognition is awarded to regular customers (I've been going for a while) and on the odd occasion one will wait for the shop keeper to finish chatting with his mates before getting served. Certain prices are also exorbitant: in particular blank CDs and most of the sweet shelf. It's unfortunate that this small, well-positioned convenience store doesn't have that all important word 'family' attached to it.
