Nobbies Hobbies

Nobbies Hobbies is a real Bedford Institution, it’s been around since before I was born and if a nuclear weapon hit bedford I imagine this little store would be the only thing to survive.
If you’re heading towards the cinema then head to nobbies and grab value for money snacks instead of the over-​priced tat on sale at the cinema.

Over the many years I lived in Bedford this once little shop has developed over the years into a large convenience store which sells all those things you need from a local shop. There was once a Post Office but this closed due to the Royal Mail cuts and changes to local post offices. The shop has now been developed to incorporate a Fish and Chip shop which appears to have a roaring trade at present (probably aided by the fact that a campus for the University of Bedford is over the road)
The owner is friendly and welcoming and always aiming to satisfy. If he doesn’t have it and you can wait I’m sure he would endeavour to get it for you.
From newspapers and sweets to things for the garden — try Nobbies Hobbies and you will more than likely be surprised
