The one outstanding point about Totnes is its independent shops in its high street, its like a…read morebreath of fresh air to not see 5 or 6 mobile phone shops and the usual faces we have come to expect. Tooked away in a very small side street is an amazing local cheese shop which is worth a visit if cheese of any type is your thing! With a map on the wall showing all the local farms and a fridge full of different cheeses you can really get a sense that these guys know what they are doing and they really do. They will let you taste any of the products and give you a history of the farm and how that cheese is made. They sell some other local items also but Cheese is the main focus. These guys should find a way to get more visibility for their business as i nearly missed it up this tiny side road.

The store in Kingston has gone downhill. Asking for help is intrusive to the staff having…read moreconversations. The present staff are rude, ignorant and unhelpful. They don't know about the products. People that work in health food stores should have knowledge about the products and help the customers. I won't be going in there again. There is a Vietnamese vegan food store past Waitrose near the Chinese supermarket. I will go there in future. They have great products - Biona etc

Food for thought is a great place if you are looking for something tasty for lunch or picnic. It…read morehas that great delicatessen smell! So tempting. They will make a sandwich for you, not your typical soggy prepacked but something tasty on a crusty roll or wholemeal bread, whatever you like really. They have jars of jams, chutneys and honey. Lovely cakes to take home, you can even pretend they are home baked. Not the cheapest but good value for what they do. It is situated close to the river, parking isn't great in Totnes but if you are lucky you might get something nearby. Why not buy a sandwich on a nice day and go and eat it by the river.

It's a treat to get a hamper. Bread pricey! Pate and cheese and special meats…read more It's a jolly good place for a gift, but expensive.

Words cannot express how much I love this shop!!…read more The selection is tremendous and the staff are all lovely and friendly. I could spend hours in here looking at all the different products on the shelves and still not see everything! I'm so glad it opened :-)

I I stumbled across Brown's deli when I was on a surfing trip in North Devon and it was the best…read morething about the weekend! We had some amazing food in the café and then purchased some lovely wine and cheese and beautiful homemade apricot chutney on the way out. The couple that own the business are the friendliest and kindest people and had a wonderful scene of humor and we chatted for ages I left feeling like I have known them forever. If you are visiting you must go and if you are a local then you are very lucky to have this amazing shop on your doorstop!

We had the most dreadful experience in this cafe on Thursday 11 April 2019, when my disabled wife…read morewas told by the proprietor that she couldn't sit in the restaurant area with comfortable chairs and proper tables, because of her Guide Dog! She could only sit in the dog friendly area that only had bar stools. We quickly explained that it is unlawful under Equality legislation to treat someone with disabilities less favourably because of their disability, or because they have a Guide or assistance Dog with them. But sadly, it quickly became obvious that my wife was not going to be treated with the respect and dignity she deserves, and the atmosphere was no longer conducive to enjoying a meal, so we left. He has since spoken with the Guide Dogs for the Blind Engagement Officer, and been informed of what he should have done, but no apology to my wife was ever forthcoming, which would have cost him nothing! I just want my wife to be treated like a human being! Each (illegal) "you can't sit here, sit over there" is a crushing, confidence shattering rejection.

Everything that the Spar has plus a Deli, amazing selection of cheeses, better booze and freshly prepared heat-up meals. The staff too are really friendly and helpful. It's open till eight an night - so trumps the Spar there too. Prices are not unreasonable for somewhere like Rock, and I thoroughly recommend a visit here.

Me and my fella are an absolute nightmare in a deli! We're talking £20 minimum! But this one has…read moregot something special. The guy who serves you really knows his stuff and is really attentive. Yes, that means you sometimes have to wait a bit (it's never empty) but why be in a hurry when there's so many delicious goodies to browse. There's some fantastic cheeses and chutnies and jams and crackers but there's also some amazing scotch eggs, cheese and bacon bombs and quiches etc. This is one of my favourite cheese shops in the whole country so if you're in Sidmouth you simply must try it!
