   Absolutely terrible new owners, act like immature children outside of business. Don’t deserve to run the portobello store. Sorry but it’s the hard truth.

   No prices on anything I saw. Come on, pricing things is an easy job - why so lazy? Surely you're not trying to deceive people into paying more out of embarassment? Surely?

   This local Portobello dairy seems to have changed hands - very disappointed by the changes we saw during our visit today. We used to pop in here to buy a pie for lunch or an icecream while we were biking past, and it was a good reliable friendly store. Today, we wanted to buy an icecream. But... NO PRICES for the icecreams, A list of pie types but NO PRICES for the pies. A fancy display of "local produce" in baskets but NO PRICES. The only things with prices seemed to be some odd items on the counter? Displaying prices is a basic courtesy. It is the customer's only protection against overcharging (whether accidental or deliberate). Think about it... Customers who are watching their budget are forced to ask the prices for anything they would like to buy - such an inconvenience, and how rude to embarrass people in this way. We left the store without buying icecreams. We won't return unless the owner reinstates price labels.

   It's nice, but thought it would be more of a country pub

   Always surprised at how much stock and great variety can fit in to such a small space. Always leave there satisfied.

   This is my local store/deli. I LOVE it. Great variety of stock, always well stocked, fresh product, free range eggs, comprehensive dry stock, drinks, ice-cream...always up-to-date with different trends. NEEDS more cheeses and speciality breads. Prices are a bit high. I would purchase more here at a better price...only a little lower. The owner is community minded though he probably relies a lot on tourist market / seasonal This may well be reflected in pricing?? Staff are overall friendly. I like to support this business : )
