It also happens to be quite cheap; I bought a couple of oranges, bananas, apples and leeks for less than £2. The addition of eggs is also welcome, I bought 6 free range eggs for 95p. If you are in the area and need anything fresh, definitely come here.

Dean and Perry Jenkins has a real farmer's market feel to it, as opposed to a regular corner shop -…read morepossibly because much of the fruits and vegetables are set up outside the shop, and everything looks nice and fresh. There are actually signs by each item saying whether they have been imported from other parts of England or other countries. Inside, there's some basic groceries: eggs, dairy and snacks; along with a table of freshly-made cookies, brownies and bread. Mmm. The cookies yesterday were little, iced gingerbread men. Another highlight: one shelf displays jars of honey that have been made here in Sussex. Although the shop is small, it seems to be quite popular. It was the busiest on George Street, and took some good manoeuvring to make it all the way through. If you're in the area, it's a good place for fruits and veg. And fresh bread.

One of my favourite places to procure fresh fruits and veggies. Not only do they have a…read moremarvelously varied selection - everything from your most exotic veg to your more mundane staples - it is also *cheap.* I dare you to find a chain grocery store that comes close to underselling these folks. Yet, unlike some inexpensive fruit and veg stands.. where you feel like you'd have to scrub the skin off your produce before you'd be convinced it was sanitary enough to eat... Ali's, wonderfully, doesn't feel cheap... there's nothing dingy or unclean about the place... everything is kept tidy and orgnanised and beautifully stacked. The other thing that keeps me coming back here is the shop's proprietor. He is always smiling and courteous - and well, one of those kindly sort of people that you just *want* to buy from... again, try finding someone like that at Tesco's HQ!

There is also a florist on site as well as an aquatics centre. All of the staff are friendly, welcoming and can provide expert advice on any of your purchases. Not many supermarkets will carry your sacks of potatoes to your carry without asking! A great local find.

The advantages of a local grocers are that you can select as much or as little as you wish and it'll cost a little less than the local Budgens, Tesco Metro or any other local vendor.

They have a wonderful selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, some of my favourites include watermelon (a slice for 75p), huge ripe avocados, sprouts, melon grapes. This is the first place where I found salad sprouts - a common staple in the States - and they have a selection including broccoli, lentils and chickpea sprouts. They also have cool things like a selection of freshly squeezed apple juice, and quail eggs. Everything I have bought there has been in perfect condition, with a sell-by date well in advance of anything I find in the supermarkets. Everything is also hugely cheaper than at Sainsburys or Tescos, even half price in many cases. In this day and age, its also refreshing to have the opportunity to pick and choose, and only buy what you need - hard to find as everything is prepackaged now. I don't have a single bad thing to say about the place and I encourage everyone who lives in the area to check it out.
