And, they have one of those rooms with loads of tubs and scoops so you can get the amount of stuff you want, instead of having to buy 2 kilos of it. Mainly though they have a good fresh food counter. No meat and lots of salads, rolls, indian foods and especially, for the winter, fresh soup which is outstanding. Very good prices too.

There's often a good little deal on the go so things really aren't too dear - and the owner's lovely too! A real gem this one.
