Despite it's dinky appearance they seem to have crammed in any lotion, potion and herb you are ever likely to need. I was in enquiring about something I had read about online, and not only did they have it, but suggested something else that would be better, and it was. Google can suggest, but the nutmeg can advise- that is a big positive difference.

I wanna start drinking a certain type of tea or heard that Miso soup is the healthiest thing on Earth (it tastes like unhappiness)and I turn to Nutmeg. It's quite a cramped shop and they have filled it as best they can. On the left hand side is the organic, whole foods that are all sourced from Fair trade marked groups keeping with the shops ethical policy. The right hand side is for the sweet, sweet drugs. They stock all sorts of natural remedies and pick me ups straight from natures pharmacies all over the world. The staff are passionate about what they are trying to promote and can get a little on the preachy side, but its their shop after all.

Was in contact with these guys via Facebook. I was enquiring about the protein they have in stock…read more They were super helpful so I decided to call into the shop. I wanted to try some sample sizes of protein. They give me them for free!!!. I have had bloating with the protein I am on at the minute so was looking for an alternative. They answered all my questions over Facebook and helped me more when I came into the shop. Annoyed that I have not been in here before now. A lot of the stuff I looked at I pay more for online. Could have saved myself time and wasted money buying the wrong things. They have lots of stock from drink containers to snacks. The snack bars are the cheapest I have seen anywhere. Super impressed. The people that own the shop know their stuff and don't stock any junk products. It's very ethical and honest. As Arnie says; I will be back!

I recently called in to get some vitamins that would help my hair and nails grow nicely before my wedding - she found me some herbal supplements and also talked me through my diet, advising me to add and cut certain things for maximum growth. This shop also has many additive and preservative free products such as jams and preserves. I bought some lovely rhubarb and ginger preserve to go on some wheaten bread my friend made for me. I nearly ate the whole jar in one sitting - so nice. Bizarrely, as I was leaving I noticed a poster asking if anyone had seen a white owl about the place. I saw one a few days ago in a tree in Portaferry so I rang up. Nothing to do with the shop but Bizarre all the same.

It cost more, perhaps, but it all makes you rethink how you might best spend your money on this type of thing - cheap stuff can be a false economy. There are also many vitamin supplements and foods for special dietary requirements including almond milk, spelt, barley and kamut flours which all make the alternative diet route seem appetising and more satisfying.

Plus Eatwell's stock chilled goods including tofu, Violife dairy free cheeses, Swedish Glaze ice cream and vegetarian haggis etc. They also have a full section filled with cosmetics, creams and shampoos; in conclusion Eatwell's have it all! You'll get items here you just won't find in standard supermarkets and shops. An excellent store.

We stopped outside and I was told to 'run in like a good girl' to get what he needed, namely some alternative medicines and foods, and I was struck by how this place seemed to be a better option than some of the pricier High Street stores that offer the same products. The staff were really helpful when I needed to find the various items (Dad didn't explain it very well) and they helped me get sorted with all the bits and pieces I needed. It wasn't too expensive either.
