Friendly foods, friendly staff!

This is a lovely shop that sells 100% vegan products. Ranging from toiletries to tempeh, and sweets to seitan; Friendly Foods stocks all the hard to find items that you will struggle to buy in mainstream stores.

The staff are super helpful and there is a lot of information about local vegan charities and animal sanctuaries.

Pros: Wide range of vegan products, Very friendly and helpful staff, Stock unique, hard to find vegan items

Cons: None

Vegan Heaven

So many goodies! Lovely owners and staff.
They do a delivery service too - just ask about it on the Facebook page.
There’s a new vegan shop opposite which is owned by the same people - it’s full of clothes and household goodies.

Pros: Huge amount of vegan goodies, Lovely owners and staff , Good prices

Cons: Maybe hard to access if you don’t drive , Spend all my money as there so much to buy

Genuinely a magical experience

Genuinely a magical experience! Popped in this morning... We absolutely love every inch of the store! Truly amazing... but honestly those words don't cover just how magical everything on offer, their level of service and the warm welcome afforded to us!

Simply haven't encountered a store with such a wide range of 100% vegan goods before, it was mind blowing! Left the store honestly feeeling full of love and hope - because it's just a shop filled with the kind of positivitity and joy that every shop in the world should have!

From a single trip, it's obvious that Sara and Scott are both such wonderful people who love what they do and deserve every success in the future!

A MUST visit! Recommended to all!

Pros: An incredible range of good, Sara and Scott - who are incredible!, Atmosphere of positivity, love and joy!

One stop shop

A very well-stocked shop! Great selection from little independent suppliers I'd not come across before, to the usual suspects such as Violife and Taifun. Vegan treats, cupboard essentials and cleaning and beauty products all found here at good prices. Great to see a refil station for some cleaning and beauty products like Faith in Nature. Helpful and friendly owner. Will definitely be returning - support independent vegan businesses!

Pros: Great selection , Friendly and helpful owner

Not just any vegan shop

It would be wrong to say Friendly Foods is just another vegan shop. Scott and Sara not only run a fantastic shop but have helped cultivate a fantastic community of vegans. Let me explain.

So you have the shop itself. To keep this short and sweet - awesome product range, reasonable prices (remember, this is an independent) and especially great for those ‘hard to find’ items. They stock a mix of both big brands and independents for the best of both worlds.

Then you have the ‘community’ I mentioned. Friendly Foods really live up to the friendly bit. They welcome dogs in the shop ( good dogs may even get a treat!), they host pop ups for vegan businesses such as local cake makers, they’re always on the vegan festival circuit in the Midlands sharing their awesome products and they’re a fountain of knowledge, both on vegan produce and shops/restaurants both local and across the country. Can’t find the thing you’re looking for? They may even be able to special order for you if they can find it. That’s true 5 star service. There is even the ‘Buddies’ scheme where shoppers pick up and deliver goods to others who may not be able to get out to Friendly Foods themselves. The nearby cafe even started a vegan menu thanks to Friendly Foods influence.

Friendly Foods is a true gem. The only negative I can think of is the location as it is no doubt tricky for some to get to but everyone who does go there comes away with the same view - that it was worth it for both the products on offer and the service.

Pros: 100% vegan, Staff knowledge and level of service, Product range

The best vegan store that I've visited in tbe UK

Wow! I was absolutely amazed by the choice at friendly foods, it is by far the best vegan store that I have ever visited and I've seen a number around the UK. They had absolutely everything I could think of or wanted. It's a nice quirky shop with really friendly, helpful staff just outside of Wolverhampton. They had a fab pantry, chilled, frozen and fresh section and prices were more than reasonable. A much better experience than popping in to your typical supermarket and you know you are supporting a small vegan business.

Pros: Amazing choice of stock, Lovsly, friendly, helpful staff, Free parking

An amazing Shop

This shop is an absolute gem! Hidden away you would never believe a shop like this exists outside of a major city. There i ample car parking. and ocrrose the way a local cafe that has started serving vegan food called The Roundhouse. This shop is amazing, if they haven't got they will get it for you. They have such a wide rang of stock and new items coming in all the time. The products they sell are very tasty.

friendly by name, friendly by nature

Scott & Sara have created a haven for vegans and anyone interested in vegan food and lifestyle. You really wont get a friendlier welcome anywhere. Everything in the shop is 100% vegan and ethical. You can get many different types of food, ice cream, chocolates, some gifts, cheeses, toiletries... the list goes on. There are even some refillable toiletries and cleaning products. The owners are always happy to offer help and advice and the kettle is frequently on. Dog and child friendly too. While you are there pop across to The Roundhouse cafe for vegan sausage rolls, cake and milkshakes.

Pros: friendly and helpful owners, dog friendly, easy parking
