What is Your Favourite Local Shop (Independent or chain)?

Well most days when I am home I will use the open market - Smorls, Real Pattisere and the Veg stall at the London Road end all have lovely staff/owners. Not to mention the second hand record store Vinyl Emporium and Mathers ice cream at the level end.

My Dog adores Coombes and always gets a massive fuss, and all the talk about Bankers its Bardsleys all the way this end of town (see Baker St thread). Alcampo is brilliant for big dogs as is the Jolly Poacher (round hill). Duke of Yorks, Ransoms and Sunny Food as well as Florence Road Saturday Market all deserve a shout.

Feel very lucky to have all this 3-4 minutes walk away.

Fourth and Church - great combination of deli foods and wines/ beers. Followed by Malbec an unusual Argentinian Deli also along Church Rd, Hove. That area is like a haven to style and good taste .

And I challenge anyone to walk past that bowl of scotch eggs in the window and not want to buy one. I reckon they can even turn a vegetarians head.
