Me and the boyf have been determined to buy all our fruit and veg from here because it's yummy and local and they're the only one I know of that accept Bristol pounds. We are starting to juice too and this would be costing a lot more if we were buying from a supermarket. There's something really satisfying and almost smug about buying really fresh, a little bit more grubby and wonky, and a whole lot more delicious produce from the greengrocers! They also do little extra treats like jam and chutney!

I'm on a mission at the moment to use supermarkets as little as possible. Spurned on by my love of…read moreThe Bristol Pound and supporting local, independent businesses - I've found my greengrocer, and I love it! Here you'll find wonky carrots, dirty potatoes and odd shaped oranges; just how the come out of the ground (or tree) and how they should be. Gardeners Patch sell pretty much any standard fruit and veg you would want. You wont find too much international out of the ordinary, but you will find inspiration if you're trying to think of a meal to cook. The staff are really nice and very helpful. I asked lots of potato related questions: best for mashing, roasting etc and they were happy to help. I've by a weeks worth (2 bigs bags) of fruit and veg for less than £10 each time I go. They accept Bristol Pounds and 'Text to Pay'

I would highly recommend Clementines for Christmas too - I had a custom box prepped ready for the big day to collect which saved so much time and stress.

I'm a big fan of greengrocers in general. Having the option of shopping for your fresh fruit and…read moreveg from a local retailer is a great alternative to the stuff you get in the big supermarkets. Stokes is no exception - it's small, but packed full of great quality, fresh produce. As well as the normal bits you'd expect to find, they also have a section of more unusual fruit at the back of the shop. This is the place where I purchased my first ever ugli fruit (it's a bit like a massive orange) and I've been a fan ever since. The one thing I would say about this place when compared to other greengrocers around, is that for certain things it can be a little on the expensive side. Still, it's a great place to visit if you fancy tryingout something a bit more adventurous.

They certainly are a dying breed but well worth supporting. Good prices and friendly staff.read more

Bloomfields is a good old fashioned greengrocer in the centre of town. All the produce is loose and…read morenot pre-packaged so buying one carrot is not a problem if that's what you want. It is an incredibly small shop, and a lot of the produce is displayed on tables and on the pavement outside the shop front. You can select what you want from what is on display but anything else that you want the staff select for you from inside the shop. You don't actually get to go inside the shop as the staff serve you from outside (I guess that is because it is so small). The mushrooms from here are the best I've ever tasted, and this was the first place I saw sprouts still on the stalk! Unlike the supermarkets they generally only stock what is in season. So yes, a proper old fashioned green grocer!

There are multiple locations in London, but we were in Bath and wanted to check it out. Since it's…read moreone of the oldest cheesemongers and is well established, it is more expensive, but compared to American prices, it's still not that bad. They have a good selection of interesting cheeses. Even though it was empty on a weekday afternoon, the cheesemonger didn't seem particularly interested in helping us since we weren't buying a ton. I know it's annoying to let us sample and then cut a bunch of 100 g pieces, but we just didn't have anywhere to store the cheese on our trip. They also have lots of cheese tools and cheese related gifts, as well as their own crackers and lots of various spreads. It's a pretty cute and complete shop.

Paxton and Whitfield was always a London institution. And I love old traditional shops, especially businesses as old as this one. So, I went into this shop hopeful I could find a special treat for a picnic. It was lovely, a really special experience. The young man in the shop was really helpful and knowledgeable and friendly and not in the least bit snooty. There were lots of beautiful artisan cheeses from all over, including some special local cheeses. Suffice it to say that I tasted some beautiful cheeses in there and took some lovely stuff home with me. I can only recommend that you do the same. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did.
