The owner Mr. Patel obviously is a shrewd businessman and has done well with this shop. I won't list but the stuff that you wouldn't expect are a stationery section, all sorts of cards updated regularly and all household bits and bobs. It is also the local paper delivering service which is another feather in the bow of this shop and another indication of the utilisation of this shop.

I guess I take particular offence because I can see my name there shrouded in atrocious spelling. Rant over to the shop: it's a newsagents, there is nothing particular bad, or good - the staff are perfectly friendly; prices competitive and premises perfectly well laid out, it's just that name. I cannot get over the name.

The newsagents itself is pretty decent by all accounts, even if unspectacular. They sell a few things beyond the standard; pistachio's and various spicy snacks (a personal favourite). Really though, this is a store that just provides the essentials to local residents. One good positive is that Joeies tends to be open later than most local shops, making it easier to get your pint of milk for the that late night cup of tea.

Whilst Googling M&A, to find out there phone number to add to my review for them, I was quite…read moresurprised to see that the first entry that I could find was a an anti-M&A Facebook group. To be fair the group hadn't had an entry since early 2008, but still I was intrigued by the active hatred that the workers in this cornershop had seemingly inspired, due to them being quite so 'grumpy' and 'rude'. I have often been standing in M&A in the early hours, whilst everything else has been closed, maybe a little drunk, indecisively hovering aound their shop deciding what to buy for what might seem like an eternity, and they have always been friendly and quite humorous in my experience. So I can only go on that, and assume either the students who made the group are over sensitive, or the workers of M&A had some massive customer service crackdown after the facebook fiasco. Anyway, the best thing about this convenience store, and the only reason why I have been in it, is the fact that it opens til later than other off licences, so affords you the luxury of continuing your drunkery until 3am. This fact is known to most in this area, and sometimes you can find yourself having non-sensical chats to other people who've made the very same pilgrimage as you, and the store can get quite busy for such a time. There is also notably a decent selection of magazines on offer.

It's not actually very large, but then I don't know what the competition is like. I went in here for the first time the other evening, having seen the beer offer to which george123 refers. They certainly have a wide range of different types of Polish beers, (mostly lagers in style) some of which are quite interesting and well worth a try. The rest of the shop concentrates on Polish groceries but they also sell a range of magazines and newspapers as well. It's fascinating to see the range of specifically Polish items (mostly food) which are available. The selection might indicate that most Poles have a sweet tooth, or perhaps that's just what the market demands when people are feeling a little homesick? Staff are very friendly and chatty, and happy to help if you are not familiar with what's on offer.

The workers are a bit frosty but then again they are practically working in a cardboard box so I would be a bit frosty in their position.
