There's one between McDonald's and Speedy Noodles. One just round the corner on Acre Lane. One down by the Academy, several on CHL and Atlantic Road. Another 24 hour one a hop and a skip up the hill opposite Brixton Water Lane.
But perhaps Brixton really does need another off licence within 200 yards of the other one. People do drink a lot.

A simple 'yes' would have sufficed.

Not really. You were saying there's 'only' one on the high street. There's 3 at least and loads nearby

Those mini-supermarket places tend to close earlier than smaller shops. And they don't do 6 for a fiver, they don't have as wide a choice of beers in the fridge, you might get one Polish lager if you're lucky, and their cans tend to be 440ml 4 packs, rather than 500ml ones you can buy in multiples of 1. With the aformentioned 6 for a fiver or similar deals available.
Apart from that, yeah, bring on the supermarket chains.

It's been there almost 2 weeks I think. Looked pretty bare for the first few days, but is full of stock now.
I also like this one, from back in July:
Chilavert
Undermining strikes :-(
I'm sure they'll be stocking plenty of Sancerre, Mouton Rothschilds and Bolly sooner rather than later.

The new wine shop in the market seems good - and good value. The guy knows what he is talking about. At least - seems to know what he is talking about when talking to someone like me who knows nothing about wine.
He recommended Gran Cerdo (Great Pig) which was very tasty. According to the rear label it is named after the bankers who would not fund their production!

But that's off a website....with a delivery charge of £19
I'd expect it to be about £7 in the shop...

I haven't either, but I noticed when I was walking past that they were offering an English Sparkling wine for about a tenner, which seemed fairly reasonable for a decent fizzy wine. I need to buy a pressie for someone for the weekend so might poke my head in tomorrow. If I do I'll report back.

I really don't think it was more than that - probably less. And he'll discount on multiples.But that's off a website....with a delivery charge of £19
