To the untrained eye this may appear to be just another, quite ordinary mini-mart/grocery store type place but to those in the know, this is in fact, most definitely an average, quite ordinary mini-mart/grocery store type place.
It is what it is, a store which serves it's purpose in the community. Local and now recently, open for 24 hours a day. Hats off to the local store! For years now Southfields Food & Wine has competed and stood it's ground with a Budgens on the other side of the road but soon a Tesco Express will be opening just a few doors down. This probably being the reason they decided to take the step of staying open 24 hours a day. A small edge on the competition.
Inside is probably as one would expect. They do, however, have quite a good variety in their stock and you're likely to pick up more than you intended to during a visit. Although, one may usually expect that to happen anyway. The down side is that Southfields Food & Wine does cost a little more than one would hope.
And there you have it!
