Unpackaged was a grocery store in [[Locale Hackney|Hackney]] that aimed to cut down on the amount of packaging used. It closed in January 2014; [http://beunpackaged.com/2013/12/unpackaged-statement-closing-down/ according to their blog] this is because their premises were too large for their needs, and they do intend to reopen again in some form.

The information below is retained for historical purposes.
 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.
