    I absolutely love this place. As a vegetarian and lover of healthy and organic foods I was in my…read moreelement. When you first get in there is an abundance of brightly coloured vegetables and potatoes and carrots that are still dirty (always a good sign). I knew I was in my kind of place straight away. I love that they try to keep packaging to a minimum, using paper bags for the fresh vegetables. There is a huge range of vegetarian products (more tofu than you could ever need...if that's even a thing), seitan and tempeh in all different forms. I love how their dried foods are all packaged in simple bags with their label on....gotta love no fuss packaging. There is also a deli counter ranging from olives, onion bhajis and daals. I tried an onion bhaji and it was amazing. Although pricier than most supermarkets, I thought the prices were reasonable (being used to Wholefoods etc. in London) for organic, fresh produce and I love that it is a co-operative. I would definitely rather pay more for local produce that isn't mass-produced. I will definitely be shopping here regularly.

    Amazed by this place…read more I haven't seen anywhere like it since my travels to Portland. It has a real community atmosphere. Everyone involved, from the growers to the staff to the people shopping, care and it really shows. It's honest. It's exactly where you want to buy your vegetables. There's soil on the fresh produce. Actual soil. No cellophane, no unnecessary packaging, no nonsense - just tasty, local food. The shelves are clearly labelled and well stocked with interesting offerings. They have your staples - potatoes, all the usual veg, cereals, spices, fruits as well as some more unusual choices when/if it's in season. Prices are reasonable and when you pay you feel like you're contributing - something you never experience in a chain supermarket. There's a play area for kids and free apples to keep them occupied - with a little compost bin for the cores. A big green thumbs up.

    A bulb of garlic, a stick of ginger, a couple of onions, a bunch spring onions, a juicy red pepper,…read morea few red and green chillies, a huge bunch of fresh coriander.......£2.36? The first time I went in there and bought a similar amount of fresh veg I found it hard to conceal my delight at the price. So hard in fact that one of the brothers asked me if I had expected it to cost me more! I have never bought my veg from Morrisons since. For a relatively small store they sell a wide range of produce (about 8 different types of mushrooms, 10 different types of potatoes etc) and I have never been disappointed with the quality. OK, so I definitely wouldn't eat any of the veg without giving it a good wash first, as it is often a bit grubby and has been sitting outside on a main road all day, and the shelf life isn't as good as supermarket veg. But give me a grubby misshapen apple over a polished supermarket apple any day! The brothers themselves are friendly and hard-working. My housemates often used to chat to them, and they seem to know their regular customers really well. Inside the shop there is a well-priced selection of herbs and spices, rice, couscous and pulses as well as the not so well-priced English essentials such as boxes of PG Tips and cans of Coke. To every Chorltonite's delight the opening of a brand new Tesco Express opposite the store doesn't seem to have harmed their business in the slightest. Long live Khawaja Brothers! PS - there is even a facebook group for fans of the brothers and their shop.

Whether you're concocting a katsu curry or just seeking out some seasonal salad, you can do no wrong by making a beeline for this little place because it's fresh, it changes with the seasons, it has more ethnic ingredients than you can possibly pile into your plastic bag, and perhaps given the first three the most appealing factor... it's almost obscenely inexpensive. I was introduced to this spot by a good friend who waxed lyrical about Pakistani mangoes, also known as 'honey' mangoes. These are orbs of pure deliciousness, sold in handy boxes of 6 for £4.50. They taste like they should be twice that price. Keep them in your fridge and peel them at breakfast time, you shan't be disappointed. In other bargainous news, a recent offer had me reeling with incredulity - surely they weren't selling entire crate-like boxes of tomatoes on the vine? Check my pictures. Yes indeedy they were. Also, their giant dates are just exquisite. Once inside you can get tons of dry ingredients for any kind of world cooking you can imagine, loads of types of flour, rice, pulses... the list is endless. And on top of all that there are exotic fruit drinks and Halal Haribo. Yes, it exists! I'm more than happy to make the journey to Chorlton to grab some essentials (and indulgences) from here, the service is friendly and the location can't be beaten - right near Unicorn? It's a veritable shop-local bonanza!

Delivery is free of charge within a five mile radius, or you can visit the shop. The 'shop' is a 'no-frills' affair, a double garage at the rear of the Patitucci family home. So you can rest assured that you are not paying through the nose for expensive premises - no, sir! Their produce is of four grades - Regular, Local, Organic and Paolo's. 'Paolo's' denotes produce grown in the greenhouses and market gardens to the rear of the garage - as far as I know, I would consider it a sort of 'uncertified organic' as my information is that Paolo does not use chemical pesticides, etc. Paolo is the grandfather of the family, who moved from southern Italy to Lancashire in 1955, and is as devoted a market gardener as you could hope to find. Here is an article I found about Paolo Patitucci in the local newspaper http://www.osadvertiser.co.uk/news/ormskirk-news/2009/09/10/parbold-gardener-paulo-patitucci-s-back-with-his-gigantic-green-beans-80904-24645160/ So basically, all the fruit and vegetables are at least good quality, with a lot of it winning extra brownie points for being local and fresh. Plus, with Paolo's characterful vegetables and herbs, and additional organic market produce, the super-healthy niche market is well catered for. They also stock a nice selection of organic delicatessen items, plus homemade jams, etc. The business side of things is now run by Paolo's son Vince, who is another fantastic gentleman. From what I've seen of him, I would say Vince is a bit of a dude. Such as - when it was still glass milk bottles - carrying two crates of milk in each hand. Without braggadocio. Lastly, they are totally fair and honest, which is a boon when buying fresh produce.

Great selection of veg and some nice assorted health food supplies and meat and cheese and dairy.

    This little fruit and veg stall is located just in front of the small park next to Man Met Uni…read moreacross the road from their Union building. Although it looks like a transient stall, it has been in this location for at least the past 5 and a half years. The best deal here is the 5 fruit for £1 offer. I think it used to be 6, but times are hard! This includes apples, bananas, oranges etc and you are able to mix and match. More exotic fruits such as grapes are obviously more expensive but still cheaper than the supermarkets. They also sell bags of avocadoes, peppers etc for around a pound a pop, though you will have to eat them within a couple of days or share them out amongst your housemates as they won't last as long as supermarket produce. They don't sell much exotic produce - you'd be better off heading up to Worldwide in Rusholme for that. As the stall is situated on the busiest bus route in Europe it is probably recommended to wash your produce before you eat it, though I've had many an apple from here on my way home, and I'm still alive.

Referred to as Oxford's Road's 'Mixed Fruits Stall' by most, I didn't realise it was called the Have a Banana Trading Co until our beloved stall was under threat due to developments at MMU. 2,415 people joined a Facebook group to help save it, and saved it has been. Not bad, huh? Shows how popular it is. I constantly walk past this stall on Oxford Road in a rush to get to the Aquatics Centre, but as I didn't have to rush back today, I took a moment to browse. I'd been drawn in by the two for £2 on their punnets of blueberries, an offer which seemed to be a longterm one, and then proceeded to be (fruit)bowled over by the value. Tenderstem broccoli, our favourite, a quid a pack. Six crunchy Braeburns, or six sweet Pink Ladies, or six of any variety of apple it seemed, bagged up and ready to go, £1. Bananas, a generous bunch, £1. I spent a mere £6 and I've returned with enough fruit and veg for the week. Surrounded by students whose diets may consist of alcohol, nicotine, caffeine and the occasional kebab, we all know an affordable place like this is appealing to a market just crying out for a bit of vitamin C. You can get a great deal of fresh grocery shopping done here, and you know it's locally sourced and ethically sound. It might be on a busy street but it's soooo cheap and incredibly convenient. The vendors are lovely and friendly, always happy to be there in all weathers (and we know Manchester can have some harsh weathers), and they tweet too! https://twitter.com/#!/bananastall Shop local, buddies!

It is indeed as good as it gets. Since spending more time here and actually having a browse rather than doing the whole, "I need this, that and this," I've grown even fonder. I had absolutely no idea that you could get so many exotic fruits and vegetables here. I've picked up plantains for my forthcoming Jerk chicken recipe, I grabbed some 'custard apples' because they were on special offer, and a bag of chestnuts to roast for 79p. Not that they're particularly exotic... but special offers are the name of the game here. Hankering to make a batch of banana bread? They'll sell their overripe bananas at reduced prices to get rid of them rather than waste them. This goes for many fruits. I gathered several soups' worth of ingredients on my last visit, as well as the aforementioned, plus grapes, mango, bananas... the whole thing came to around a measly £11, and I had a ridiculous amount. Like two full bags. I mean, beyond five a day. I asked them to keep the change, because another thing I've noticed is that the staff are ridiculously nice. Offering to double-bag your fruit, chatting away to you - I felt like I ought to do *something*. Occasionally you'll need a late night fix or you might not be able to get to the Arndale, but goodness me, you should always shop here when you can. It's epic.

    Everybody, look how pretty!…read more I'm writing this not as an actual market customer - more an aesthetic appreciator. I promise I'll be back to Yelp the markets properly. You know Em loves her updates, peoples. I recently attended Stockport's Vintage Village which took place in these impressive Victorian Markets, and boy, are they attractive. Handsome. Like if they were a guy, I'd be giggling like a stupid schoolgirl while they spoke to me. And I'd probably accidentally snort or something. They lent themselves incredibly well to the whole retro vibe, especially those types at the markets who were selling and crafting cute little trinkets. First of all they're covered, which is great for our inclement Manchester weather (ooh, quick warning: do not refer to Stockport as part of Manchester to a Stockportian. Ever. Even 'Greater Manchester'. They'll practically beat you about the face with a handbag and give you the evils for the rest of the day), and they have underfloor heating. Er, bonus! Food was provided by the lovely Zip's Grill, an Australian affair that offers all kinds of tasty treats from their meaty bacon and egg butties and steak wraps to mezzes, soups and salads reflective of the proprietor's Aussie Greek-Cypriot background. Oh, and they have loads of different kinds of bread too. Double bonus. The stalls I saw marked out, closed obviously at the time due to the Vintage Fair, I was very intrigued by. Books! Triple bonus! And many others to boot. Anyway, thus ends my Scrabble-esque chat about Stockport's Market Halls. Now, if I could just find a cab driver who takes me right to the door instead of abandoning me on a drizzle-ridden pedestrian road with armfuls of Yelp goodies, that'd be just dandy.

    We popped here while nipping to the regular Foodie Friday in Stockport (last Friday of the month -…read more6-9pm) and the old market does seem to be having a bit of a renaissance period. Ok so I may have had slightly rose tinted specs on due to me enjoying the fine fine food on offer outside but it really is a nice spot. In the week, it's open with a good mix of shops - all sorts of market grocers, butchers and a little cafe - plus some totally random shops and some real gems like High Peak brewing Co (go here for amazing beer from all around the world - amazing x464648!) On this occasion with it being FF, you could sit inside and take a load off, buy from some of the traders and even buy beer from High Peak to drink! A winner for me and great architecture to boot! Some great pubs like the Bakers are in the Market square too if you fancy getting your whistle wet!
