This shop is a lovely gem of a shop in the little town of Oakwood. It might not have the fruit and…read moreveg section as in Love Organic, Chapel A, but it certainly can match them for organic nuts and seeds! As well as this there is a vast selection of health supplements, which is surprising for such a small space, of all kinds from homeopathy right through to oral vitamins. They also have a huge selection of quirky items such as organic beers and alcohols, free from foods and even those awesome old school jam jars of sweets, like mint imperials, which are the kind of thing you expect from a gift shop in Devon. The lady at the counter was absolutely lovely and gave excellent service - multi tasking a customer on the phone and a lady in the shop simultaneously! They also have an in house Doctor who can provide acupuncture, amongst other services - housed above the actual store. All in all I found this shop to be brilliant. For all your organic health needs, come to The Health Store in Oakwood.

On entering the shop, my eyes were met with a beautiful array of fresh, organic fruit and…read morevegetables. (Or venchtables as I used to call them, until I was embarrassingly old enough to know better.) Large wicker baskets full of apples greet the customer, many having the all important bonus leaf. It truly made me want to pick them up and start skipping through a nearby meadow, wearing a flowing dress and possibly conversing with tamed animals. Too far? Forget it. A former vegetarian myself, I understand the convenience of having somewhere like Out Of This World to rely on in a city centre. It means being able to purchase items which are sometimes not even stocked in the larger supermarkets, to maintain a balanced diet without being forced to use unwanted substitutions. Too well stocked to be a health food shop, Out Of This World falls into the category of health food supermarket. There is a huge range of the usual nuts, seeds and pulses; but also a surprising number of Traidcraft toiletries, recycled stationary, hair dye and household cleaning products. Alongside fairly traded tea and coffee, vitamins, supplements and natural remedies, the store also caters for sufferers of restrictive diets. There is a varied selection of groceries for people who have to omit gluten, wheat and diary from their nutritional intake, and a large number of vegetarian and vegan ready meals. One reason why I particularly like Out Of This World, is because they stock Samuel Smith ale and lager. A real favourite with my Other Half and I, they provide us with a constant hoard. Bondgate Bakery in Otley supply the store with freshly baked loaves and buns, with gluten and wheat free alternatives available. A deli counter offers freshly made quiches, samosas and wraps - a handy lunch or a lazy supper. The staff are very approachable and were more than happy to assist me in finding a difficult item for a family member. What I mean by that, is my Gran was looking for bee pollen, because the lothario that she listens to on her local radio station had been praising its medical benefits. Any shop that can help me in my quest for bee pollen, has earned respect in my eyes.

This shop is the city centre's answer to Chapel A's Love Organic. It has been here ever since I…read moremoved to Leeds and as such is certainly one of the more longstanding stores in town. A lot of places have changed in what feels like a very small space of time, but not Out Of This World. I used to come here on Saturdays to purchase their organic milk and elderflower cordial for the bar that I worked at on Call Lane. It was always handy to stock up in case anyone wanted a White Russian, but really it was mostly to supply my need for coffee. Also, there is nothing quite as refreshing as elderflower cordial and lemonade. Seriously, it used to be my favourite drink. I love the smell when you walk in to this shop. It's not exclusive, it's that same smell most organic shops have, but it is lovely. The smell of good. Only goodness. Nothing in here can really be bad for you. At least, that's what we can believe until we learn otherwise! Within you will find, as well as hoards of organic foods, all sorts of enviro-friendly cosmetics, cleaning products (for you and your clothes) and much more. It errs on the expensive side if you wanted to do your weekly shop here, but it is sure worth buying that elderflower cordial. Yum!

It's just 3 minutes from the sea, so you can pick up one of their free health magazines and read it on the beach. Staff give helpful advice and appear knowledgeable about the product ranges they sell, which is always a plus. On a couple of occasions I've even been given samples relevant to my product interest, impressive when it's an expensive item. The shop stocks wide ranging products; some fresh foods, hair and beauty products, cereals, and various creams and lotions for all kinds for skin and body care. The environment is clean and tidy, and the shop allows business cards for local complimentary practitioners to advertise their treatments of Reiki Healing, Reflexology, Bowen technique, Massage Therapy, Reflexology, and Hypnotherapy or any other mind/body/new age events likely to be of interest to their customers.

The only thing they don't have is a café - but there's just no space for one.
