Randomness Guide to London Menu

A grocery store in Finsbury that aims to cut down on the amount of packaging used. It's in a former dairy shop called Lloyd & Son, and the original signage and tiling has been preserved.

The shop is small, mostly confined to a single room, but with a few other items in a small room to the side. It largely sells delicatessen type items. The centre of the shop is devoted to bulk foods, for which customers are requested to bring their own bags and weigh them (you can buy bags for re-use if you need to, though). There's a small selection of decent organic wines available as well.

An anonymous visitor to this site in August 2009 also notes they sell "the raw materials to make your own detergents and soaps and things to clean with".
