Kevin’s 5-star review:
Chances are... if you hate rainbows, freedom, and the like... you're also going to hate on Unpackaged and everything this shop stands for.
Mere blocks away from the hustle and bustle of Chapel Market, Unpackaged offers an alternative to your organic nuts, flours, oils, vinegars, and various sundry other kitchen and home goods purchasing needs. As its appellation suggests, you'll want to bring your own containers and bags, as most products here come... you guessed it... unpackaged. There are a few cork-able glass bottles for liquids and plastic bags for your use here, but the idea is to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
In addition to snacks and meal ingredients, Unpackaged offers a seemingly random smattering of other edibles worth taking a nosey at - mouthwatering Scotch eggs, Pieminister pies, and home-made/locally sourced baked goods. If you're a fan of not-so-sweet nibbles, check out the muesli cake by Sasha. Yum.
While I wish they were open on Sunday, so I could take advantage of the farmers market at Chapel Market and hit up Unpackaged in one go, this is certainly a shop worth popping into any other day of the week. If only they had a location slightly closer to my flat, I'd be in here all the time!
