Handy local shop

Such a great store to top up on all your dried vegan staples. They also have a great variety of vegan chocolate and sweets available, including some brands I haven’t tried before!

Fantastic range of options

A great go-to for items you can’t easily get elsewhere. We often stop in for the mini Booja-Booja ice cream pots! 😋

Love it!

Finally found black salt here! Plus red miso paste and wheat gluten to make Seitan. I didn’t find it overpriced, for example I bought a freshly made whole meal sourdough bread which was quite large for around £3.50.

Staff were super helpful and it’s also dog friendly, which makes life so much easier 💚🌱

Will come back for sure when I’m next in the area.

Pros: Great selection, Stocks hard to find vegan products, Dog friendly

So glad I found this place! Working in Canterbury it’s sometimes difficult to find exactly what you’re after. But now I have found this place it’s made my life so much easier! From easy vegan snacks to great ingredients for dinner, thanks!

Expensive but worth it

If any one is interested in where they can find vego chocolate spread... Here is the shop for you!
Always stock up on everything I need for the week that I can't find in local supermarkets or corner shops and always end up coming away with tasty treats as well!

Very convenient

I come here almost every day to pick up vegan stuff that other shops don’t stock. I’ve never not been able to find what I’m looking for at Wholefoods and they even have some vegan junk food (chickn nuggets, chocolate, etc.) which is always fun to try out.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Wide variety of foods and ingredients

Excellent range

All the usual health food shop staples and more speciality vegan stuff too (Veganaise, cheeses, Tofurkey products, frozen foods etc etc). They often have very new ranges and brands in before anywhere else.

Fab range of vegan goodies

A good place to stock up on *hemhem* "health food items" like Booja Booja chocolate and ice cream, Violife cheeses (even the new halloumi one!) and lots of the German vegan chocolate brands like iChoc, Vivani etc and they are not extortionately priced. They also have ethical products like Faith in Nature soaps loose (no wasteful packaging) plus fresh vegetables, jars of nut butters etc.

Pros: Good range

Good selection

See also Veg Box Cafe, which is upstairs.
"Since mid-1970s, range of organically produced foods, lots of Fairtrade products and as much local produce as we can. No fish, meat or associated by-products, no genetically modified foods and no products that have been tested on animals."
Good selection of fresh and prepared food, including packaged bulk items, also treats and snacks, organic beers and wines, body care products, etc.

Pros: good selection, open every day, vegan beers and wines

Cons: not much fresh produce

Nice!

Got there 15mins before closing time, but they still accommodated us. The place has a hippie feeling to it and is a nice place if you have small children. There were plenty of choices on the board and our food was very tasty too. They did bring us some butter when we asked if everyting was clearly vegan, but they were very apologetic about it and replaced it with vegan marge. Food tasty, staff very nice & helpful, would definetely good back again!

Pros: Choice of Vegan Food, Central Location, Cheap & friendly staff

Cons: Double check ingredients if vegan
