LITTLE SHOP OF VEGANS

 

IMPORTANT NEWS

Little Shop of Vegans has moved!

We are now based at 49 St Benedicts Street, Norwich, NR2 4PG

(directly opposite The Tipsy Vegan)  

*****************************************************

Little Shop of Vegans is a friendly, vegan-owned business. We stock items made by over 30 other vegan companies and traders. We’re a small shop with a big heart!

Launched in 2016, Little Shop of Vegans now sells over 500 different products, including cold food to go, dairy-free cheeses, meat alternatives, frozen pizzas, confectionery, candles, t-shirts and gifts. We also have a growing range of eco-friendly household products and toiletries such as bamboo toothbrushes and natural deodorants. 

Located in the historic Nowich Lanes, we’re just a 5 minute walk from Norwich city centre. There is ‘pay at meter’ parking directly outside the shop and two free disabled parking spaces close by (a few feet down the road on the opposite side). The nearest large carparks are St Andrew’s car park and Westwick Street car park.

DISABLED & PUSHCHAIR ACCESS

The shop building dates back to the early 16th century and is rather quirky in layout, which is not without its challenges but we are doing our best to ensure an enjoyable shopping experience for everyone.

Please note that there are two steps down into the shop. We have a 6ft folding Aerolight  Xtra ramp which we can put down for anyone with access requirements.

If the ramp isn’t down when you arrive, please knock on the door and we will happily put the ramp in place for you.

Unfortunately there are also two steps leading to the back third of the shop. The doorway to the back third is too narrow for us to safely use our ramp, even if we take the door off (we have tried) which means that the back third of the shop is currently inaccessble to wheelchair users. For this reason we have placed the most popular and frequently purchased products in the front two-thirds of the shop to help make them as accessible as possible. We are also more than happy to bring products from the back of the shop to the front as needed.
