As a local shop rooted in the community we take our role to sell alcohol responsibly very seriously.

Refusing inappropriate sales
is not an easy path for our staff to walk, but they do an amazing job and we are very proud of them.

Community first. Profit second.

Was having a wee boogie in the shop the other day and thought to myself "what a lovely cheery, quirky and welcoming wee shop we have!"

If you prefer your shops to be old school and welcoming rather than soul-less places that pipe "shoplifters will be prosecuted" through the tannoy......then come and see us. A warm purple welcome awaits! πŸ’œ

Do not try this at home kids! (Purple shop magic required)

But if you fancy supporting the wee guys over the big guys that would be fine with us.

It's lunchtime and the ice lollies have arrived. Will I have a Strawberry Calippo or a Minecraft Ice Cream for pudding? Decisions, decisions!

There is a lot going on in this video (I'll not be winning any film awards!) but the gist is that this is our Caroline going down to meet the legend that is Darren our Warburtons delivery driver who can't get through to deliver our bread in his van, so is coming on foot. In addition to all that, Caroline is also helping a stranded motorist who had no idea how to negotiate the road closure.

We fully understand when work needs to be done to repair things, but, as a small business, when no work appears to be being done in the coned off area and half your customers can't get to you, it is hard to be patient. No one compensates us for reduced footfall and cancelled deliveries.

Nonetheless we will keep going as small businesses always do. With a giant dollop of purple resilience and a bit of humour.
