The staff here are friendly and helpful and have got good quality fruit, vegetable, nuts, cocoa beans, chocolate and other items that are all organic. For your first ten dollars spent here as well you get a free coconut and can also make savings if you order in bulk. I was amazed by their large rice bags filled with quinoa and not rice!

From the outside this appears to be a grubby little shop. Black plastic crates of lemons, oranges…read moreand grapefruits look singularly unappetising. I almost walked past with my nose turned up, but I glanced through the dank little doorway and changed my mind. As you walk through, the shop takes shape - it becomes lighter, more inspiring and more stocked. This is foodie and health heaven, much as the shop's name suggests. The refrigerated cabinet holds all manner of cheeses - goat, feta, sheep, cheddar, ricotta as well as yoghurt, milk and butter. An effort to keep things natural and local has clearly been made. Further down is a wonderful shelf stocked with hundreds of brown paper packages, containing a huge variety of seeds, beans, grains and flours. I can't imagine there is anything missing from this pulse-paradise. I love the fact it's all wrapped organically with labels describing exactly what is within, the nutritional information and cooking instructions. On the opposite side of the shop is a bizarre array of vast plastic tubs and containers which look as if they'd be better placed in a factory. But, on closer inspection, they are enormous pots of weird and wonderful substances such as agave nectar - usually very difficult to track down. Finally, at the back of the shop is a fabulous fruit and vegetable section, resplendent with purple carrots, crunchy lettuces and shiny fruit. This is a wonderful shop for anyone who likes organic, top quality food. Living healthily seems so easy in a place such as this, where all those tough-to-find products have their place on the shelves. It is quite expensive, but you can't put a price on top quality produce. This shop is frequently crammed with customers, glowing at the sight of such healthy food. Perhaps the Organic Paradise and Suveran's rather dishevelled exterior is a cunning ploy to keep one of Bondi's best-kept secrets under wraps.

The prices are high, but I expect to pay a bit more for some of the higher quality brands they…read morecarry. Why, then, two stars? The service here, or lack thereof, is appalling, even by Australian standards. I can't tell you how many times I've known what I want, but I can't get anyone to unlock/open the cabinet for me because they are too busy having a 30 minute conversation with a friend at the cash register/front counter. And the organization and layout is another pet peeve. I buy all my supplements online now at iHerb. Great prices, super convenient. Maybe Australian retailers will get their shit together one of these days, but I am not counting on it. This place is a definite pass in my book.

Dr Earth Go Vita is a mouthful of a name, it is true. I think it's co-branding or something…read more Whatever, I'm going to stick with Dr Earth! This "health & wellness" supplier has been around for a long time and stock a great range of big name brands like Blackmores as well as lesser known ones. They mainly stick with vitamins, natural cosmetics and homeopathic medicines, but do have a fair amount of food and definitely all the basics for a healthy kitchen. You can get your bulk oils etc here as well as exotic-sounding but standard health shop fare like tempeh, manuka honey, goat's yoghurt and protein bars. They have a great loyalty programme with 21% off everything in the store for card holders on certain days (join their email list for info) on top of the discount card holders receive anyway.

My understanding of customer service is that you are supposed to make people feel welcome, accepted and encouraged to engage with the products. I spent the entire time in the store feeling as though they wanted me to leave. Maybe they were having a bad day, but frankly I left close to tears and humiliated. I've never made a review of a company before, but I felt like this is one occasion where feedback is needed.

The Emporium tries to source from local small businesses and growers which is commendable but of course all that stuff is more expensive. But fantastic if you can afford it! There's seating so you can stop for lunch or a coffee while you shop for your tempeh, vitamins, virgin oils or free range eggs and I really love the food here. I love me a bit of hippy food and their tofu fritters are delicious... and the coffee is great and fair trade, natch.

Despite its mystical name, it is an abundance of all things organic and life-conscious, whether to you that means avoiding food allergies, or animal products all together, or binging on organic mung beans and popping herbal supplements. They have a resident naturopath ready to help with free consultations, a bulk food sections for those nuts, beans, grains and herbs you're ready to horde, a small resources section if that obscure vegan+gluten free cookbook has been eluding you, a juice and smoothie bar if you need that wheatgrass shot to really rev you up in the morning, and a deli counter with their own delicious creations from wraps and veggie patties to the world's best gluten-free macadamia nut brownies. I'm not joking about the brownies. They're small, but perfectly formed, just like the Health Emporium.

This is the place to buy your dirty dozens, the foods that suck up nasties : apples, capsicum, blueberries, celery, grapes, cucumber, lettuce, nectarines, peaches, potatoes, strawberries and spinach. Often much more rea$onably priced than organics from Coles and Woolworths, and though small, much better selection than you'll find, even at fancy woolies (Thomas Dux). Across the street is my least favourite of the aboutlife shops (still solid 3.5-4 stars though, losing pt for sacrificing aisle space for carrying more stuff. Staff a bit 2 kool 4 skool for my taste) which has similar range but many are chemical-free, not organic. Service good. Village feel but not granola. Farmer-friendly. Mostly local, I think. Produce always quality. Closest you'll get to growing it yourself. Doubt anything sold here conflicts with the sort of consumer I'd like to be when I grow up.

This place is it. Whole Foods is a health nut's dream. I get my wheat organic pasta here (it's $10 but you can use it for 2 or 3 occasions) and sauces and some breads. But they have many other things here too (this despite the relatively smallness of the grocery store). There's the usual fruit and vegetables - as always check the price before you buy- , cereals, chocolates, milk, drinks, mueslis, meats, eggs, snacks, you name it. Just don't count on doing your weekly shopping here. But do try the organic wheat pasta. It rocks my world (even at that price).
