Islip Village Shop

Supporting your village shop helps to keep a vital service in your community

Plans for Islip's very successful Community Shop were drawn up after the long-standing Village Store closed at the end of May 2000, following Chris & Janet Busby's retirement. The fundamental refurbishment of the Village Hall in that year provided an opportunity to replace Busby's Stores with a Community Shop, which subsequently opened on October 14th, 2000. Because of overwhelming demand, the shop was extended in December 2005.

The Village Shop is open Monday 10.00 - 12.00   15.00 - 18.00 Tuesday 10.00 - 12.00   15.00 - 18.00 Wednesday 15.00 - 18.00 Thursday 09.30 - 12.30   15.00 - 18.00 Friday 10.00 - 12.00   15.00 - 18.00 Saturday 10.00 - 12.00 Sunday 15.30 - 17.00
