corner shop
Neighborhood convenience store
A corner shop is a small retail store in a residential neighborhood, typically selling groceries, household items, newspapers, and sundries.
The term is primarily British; Americans say convenience store or bodega.
Corner shops are often family-run and keep longer hours than supermarkets: I popped down to the corner shop for milk.
