This is another branch of Margiotta and I’m still a huge fan of them. Great for fresh bread in the morning, handy if you’re in need of a magazine or the daily newspaper and great if you need a carry out for a party in the evening. This branch is clean, bright and well stocked with pretty much every necessity you would need from toilet rolls to a forgotten vegetable on the weekly shopping list. Whenever I’ve popped in the staff have always been friendly and they have a fabulous pick and mix range too!

I was once told that this was the place to get your groceries if you’re a ‘yah’. How else can you excuse paying over £4 for a loaf of bread? If Daddy’s paying, that’s how. To be honest, this branch does well because it’s in the epicenter of ‘yah’s-ville. This part of the New Town caters for all walks of life… but mostly those walking in Uggs and Jack Wills jumpers with the occasional Barbour jacket/pashmina combo. They can afford to live in the New town as a student, thus they can afford ridiculous prices for their groceries. Spiffing.

Margiotta is more than just a local corner shop(although it is very near my house and situated on a corner…). It opens early in the morning, which is handy for picking up something to eat on the way to work, and it closes late at night, so handy for picking up a bottle of wine on the way home. They have fresh pastries(croissants and danishes), a nice selection of ‘homemade’ cakes(although I get the impression these were actually made in a factory somewhere and then wrapped in clingfilm to appear lovingly baked) and all manner of groceries that any shop situated on a corner should have(tins of beans, super noodles, tea, coffee etc). Plus loo roll for 99p. ‘Nuff said.
