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!

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'

Offering a wide variety of really fresh produce it can compete with supermarkets in terms of range as well as on price. But there ones area where there isn't any competition at all. Pawson's only deal in fruit and veg and their knowledge of the product is second to none. Apart from a few sundry items like the odd jar of local conserve, the shelves are stacked high with the vibrant colours of nature's best. I have never been in when there wasn't a queue, always a sure sign that they keep their customers happy, and keep them coming back. There's limited parking on the street, but most of the customers tend to arrive on foot. The staff are more efficient than they are friendly, but without a moment to draw breath, this is understandable.

The focus is on fresh food from local producers; its the farmers themselves that are selling you the goods. There's more or less everything you could imagine finding on a farm, with highlights including the various organic meat stalls (v. expensive) and the fruit stalls later in the summer, when you can get some of the recent strawberry crop People know about their goods and love to talk about it. This isn't a supermarket experience and people are keen to have a chat - it's a bit like being in the countryside, funnily enough. It runs on a Wednesday, so if you're working in the city centre (it's based by St. Nicholas Market on Corn Street) treat yourself in your coffee/lunch break and pick up some crusty bread and cheddar cheese. You'll feel much better than you would queueing up with the other suits, even if it does cost a little bit more.

Unfortunately for them there are a lot of other shops on Stapleton Rd selling similar foods so they aren't quite as unique as they could be. There's a pretty decent fruit and veg section outside selling the standard stuff plus some extras for the locals such as yucca. The Big Avocado's are the main reason I come here, especially since learning they can be used to replace eggs in cakes and bread! Aside from the usual stacks of White Lightning and Special Brew there are many good dried foods here such as dried lime and bitter. Interestingly you can also get your mits on some beetroot powder - should you necessitate. Quite an intriguing little shop this one.

It's a smooth operation and clearly works well. You can swipe some pretty good deals here like a punnet of strawberries for a quid, but then it is April - are they really native to the UK now?
