Mitchells is more than just an off licence, and isn't somewhere just to pick up multipacks of lager - though you can do that if you wish!
To the back of the shop there is an extensive wine area, which is Mitchell's speciality. There is also a large range of champagnes and even a specialised cigar area.
The owners of Mitchells take a lot more care in the presentation of their stock than most other off licences, and the long, corridor like unit leads you into the shop and past the shelves of real and organic ales, past the spirits and continental lagers, until you reach the wine area.
The staff are very friendly, and there are always special offers on other drinking paraphenalia, such as glasses, bottle openers and corkscrews.
The family have had a shop in the area, starting in other forms, as a butchers and then a green grocers and it feels really nice to still be able to buy things from a local and well thought out business. read more
