Indie Food Shops

Walking through the door of “Braithwaite’s” coffee and tea merchants on Castle Street is like stepping back in time. Trading since the 19^th century, Braithwaite’s roasts its own coffee beans on the premises using a secret age-old method.

Specialist cheese deli “The Cheesery” on the atmospheric Exchange Street stocks local and continental cheeses and has a loyal customer base with people travelling miles to shop there.

In the next street you’ll find the artfully presented “Birchwood Food Emporium & Cafe” – an organic grocery story with juice bar, stocking artisan bread and cupboard essentials for all specialist diets.

Fraser’s Fruit and Veg (pictured) is a popular greengrocer’s on neighbourly Perth Road selling local fruit and veg and a rotating range of soup bags which are so famous, they’re featured in a Frasers Soup cookery book!
