Mother Superior

Mother Superior is a natural wine shop and bar at 26 Nunhead Green, opened in November 2020 in a unit that had previously housed another neighbourhood shop. The single-site business stocks natural, organic and biodynamic wines across red, white, rose, orange and sparkling styles, alongside craft beers, ciders, spirits and grocery items from small producers. A basement bar serves wine and beer for drinking in alongside the retail shop upstairs. Opening hours run Wednesday to Sunday, with the shop closed Monday and Tuesday. The name refers to the religious history associated with the Nunhead area. Staff focus on smaller wine producers who use low-intervention winemaking methods, and the shop runs regular tastings for customers wanting to try bottles before buying. It functions as both an off-licence and a bar, drawing custom from Nunhead, Peckham Rye and Brockley. There is no evidence of additional branches; the business trades from this one Nunhead address.
