Fallowfield Mini Market

This is a relatively new shop and it’s the only one in the area. This is probably because there is a massive Sainsbury’s right next door, so more shrewd businessmen probably chose not to set up a small convenience store right here.
Basically this means it is only worth using if Sainsbury’s is closed. Considering the shops that usually play this role (Spar, One Stop, Premier) the prices are surprisingly cheap, especially on alcohol. Don’t go there for anything specific, but you can probably find something bearable to eat or drink there if its your only option.

Fallowfield Mini Market is one of those wonderful little shops which you seem to first come across when you are really in need of a drink/​food/​sweets/​alcohol. A bit like that room in Harry Potter that appeared at times of great need. Only it never had cheap alcohol in.
That is essentially what the Mini Market is most used for by the majority of the local students. It’s tucked away behind the Sainsbury’s, and stays open fairly late, so you’ll often spot people popping in for a bottle of something to keep them going in the evening.
It also sells food and stuff, but with the Sainsbury’s so close, there’s little point using it for anything other than the cheap alcohol. But that one thing? It does it well.
