They recently did the place up and expanded into the premises next door; now they have a shiny new deli and a comfy sit-down/cafe area. My only real issue with this place is that I have gone in there a number of times looking for something only to find that they have run out or just don't stock it. For example. they sell hotdogs but they don't stock hotdog buns at all.

I pop in here most days, so it's mad that I haven't reviewed it yet!…read more Staff are pleasant, they do lots of special offers, but a lot of their produce is more expensive than Tesco or Lidl. Their deli is very impressive, their wraps, sandwiches, salads are very fresh and good value. They also make fresh pizzas, but I haven't tried them yet. They have an ATM at the back of the store, but this is often out of service, but there is an outdoor ATM just up the road a little (a minute's walk or less). They've got groceries, off-license, newspapers/magazines, lottery, almost anything you could want, but I wouldn't do a full weekly shop here! They are open 24 hours, which adds a star for me!

The deli counter is wonderful here. You can get soups, salads, wraps, sandwiches and even freshly made-to-order pizzas! It's great for dropping down and grabbing a bottle of wine or spirits after work, they have over 20 wines that I can think of off hand. If you're not one for wines, they have over 25 kinds of both domestic and imported beers, chilling and waiting to be taken home. The hours are SUPER convenient, I'm pretty sure it opens at 8 and closes a little past 9 Monday through Saturday. It's nice to have a local shop, reasonably prices with a good selection so close to home. It's even better on nights when I forget to take out something for dinner!

It has a large shop which has everything from cards to groceries. The shop is a bit haphazard with stock and shelving in the middle of the floor but it makes for a more homely feel to the shop. Everywhere has gotten so clinical and uninviting but this place is fine. There is also a cafe attached on to the right of the shop but for some strange reason it never seems to be open? I see signs saying coffee and sandwiches for sale, and a smoothie bar but the other day at 3.30 in the afternoon it was closed.

So it's a hot chocolate with a "shot" of honey served in a large white mug with cold cream on top and dried raspberry's sprinkled on top with a few flakes of chocolate. It really looks the part. So its an odd experience taking the first sip as your lips are dipped in the very cold whipped cream and the dried raspberry's sit under your noise so it is all you can smell and when you drink you get the heat and taste of the honey sweetened hot chocolate. So it's a real miss match of temperatures and tastes which is odd at first but it works. After drinking about a quarter I decided to mix all the cream and berry's into drink which again was nice as the raspberry's swell up in the chocolate and float to the top. Anyway it may not be everyone's cup of tea or cup of hot chocolate as the case might be but I liked it and would recommend you at least try it once. Yummy!!

Avoiding the salads, I made my way to the hot deli counter and paused for thought. A very pleasant lady asked me what I would like and, in accordance with my wishes, made me a terrifically unhealthy sandwich. I picked up a cup of coffee and took perch on the complementary seats outside where I could still see the marathon progressing. Enjoying my juicy lunch I eased my conscience saying "Sure maybe I'll run it next year." Good shop though, and a welcome addition to The Oval building.
