The Oxford Guide

Also known as Classic Delicatessen, Classic Oriental Foods and all sorts of other things, this was a real find recently - a reasonably good range of both foreign and domestic bottled beers, probably more interesting than the Grog Shop. Tony Brett says you want to check the best-before dates before buying though, since apparently they often sell slightly out of date stock bought up cheap. But it's all still drinkable, well priced and with a great selection. If only it weren't so far down the damned Cowley Road.
