A few of the things neighbours order most. Loose produce is weighed as it is picked, and the bill never goes above the price on the card.

At the market before five, on the shelves by eight
Most mornings, someone from the shop is at the wholesale market before dawn, choosing fruit and vegetables crate by crate. Bread arrives from a bakery two streets away, and eggs and milk come from farms within an hour's drive.
Buying little and often keeps waste down and the shelves honest. If the strawberries are poor this week, they stay at the market rather than ending up in your basket.
- Fruit and vegetables chosen crate by crate
- Bread from a bakery two streets away
- Unsold bread and produce go to a local food bank
Four aisles, most of the weekly shop
A corner shop cannot stock everything, so the shelves hold what a household runs through in a week, plus a few things neighbours asked for by name.
Fresh produce
Fruit, vegetables and herbs, with ripe and ready labels on avocados, mangoes and pears.
herbs from$1
Bakery and dairy
Bread delivered each morning, plus milk, butter, yoghurt and cheese kept chilled from van to fridge.
loaves from$2.80
Pantry staples
Rice, flour, pasta, oils, tins, spices and the dry goods most kitchens run on.
tins from$0.90
Household goods
Cleaning supplies, toilet rolls, bin bags, batteries, light bulbs and matches.
sponges from$1.50
From your list to your kitchen table
Every order is picked by a person who knows what a ripe avocado feels like.
Order by the cut off
Fill the basket online before 14:00 for the evening slot, or before 20:00 for the next morning.
Picked by hand
Someone in the shop picks your order, choosing fruit the way you would for yourself.
A call before any swap
If something has run out, we ring with an alternative and you decide whether it goes in.
Handed over chilled
Fridge and freezer items travel in insulated boxes and are handed to you at the door.
A look round the shop
The produce stands, the bread shelf, the spice wall and the counter where baskets wait to be collected.
Neighbours on their baskets (example reviews)
The evening slot rescues every weeknight. The tomatoes actually taste of something, and the one time the coriander ran out, the shop rang before swapping it.
Our weekly list arrives every Friday morning without being asked, and the shop adds a note when the mangoes are especially good.
Ordered from the bus, collected on the walk home. The basket was packed, labelled and waiting, and the sourdough alone is worth the detour.
Questions at the till
How far does the van go?
Homes and offices within about 3 km of the shop. Beyond that, send your area through the form and we tell you honestly whether a round can reach you.
What happens when something has run out?
We ring before any swap and suggest the closest alternative. If we cannot reach you, the item is left out of the basket and taken off the bill.
How do you handle food allergies?
Allergen details are printed on every packed product, and loose bread is labelled on the shelf. The shop handles nuts, gluten, milk, eggs and sesame, so we cannot promise any item is clear of traces; if someone at home has a serious allergy, check each label and ask us before you order.
Are loose fruit and vegetables weighed?
Yes, as they are picked. The price on the card is the most you pay, and if the weight comes in under it, the bill comes down to match.
What if something arrives bruised or past its best?
Tell the driver at the door, or message the shop the same day, and we swap it on the next round or refund it. There is no need to send it back.
Can offices or events order in larger amounts?
Yes. Weekly fruit bowls, milk and tea for offices, and trays of food for gatherings are arranged through the form, with the quantities agreed before the first delivery.
Standing orders, offices and special requests
Set up a weekly order, arrange fruit and milk for an office, or ask us to stock something you cannot find. We reply within one working day, and a standing order can be paused or changed with a day's notice.
- Standing orders on the same day each week
- Office fruit, milk and tea on a weekly round
- Paid directly to the shop, weekly or monthly
Pop in on the way home
The shop sits on the corner by the bus stop, open early for milk and late for whatever the recipe forgot.

The board by the door
A chalkboard by the door lists what came in that morning. Ask at the till and we will put a bunch of herbs or the last loaf aside until you get there.
