Reviews of The Ealing Grocer

I’ve been here a few times; there is a wide selection of vegetables on display, however on the times I’ve been they tend to be past their best, wilting and still selling at (an already vastly inflated) full price. On one trip, I bought soup and bread - the soup, though nice was pretty average given the high price and the bread completely stale. I was offered replacement bread on my next visit when I messaged them but, to be honest, they need to focus on the freshness of their stock as at these prices this shouldn’t happen. The inside of the shop is stacked with a vast array but there’s almost too much to choose from - maybe a slightly more concise, curated selection would make for a more pleasant shopping experience. I don’t think I’ll bother going again.

Having just moved into the area from neighbouring Fulham this grocer/deli is a joy to discover. Bayley and Sage has nothing on this place. It is an Aladdins cave for the foodie. The proprietor champions all excellent foods from the high to the low price range from the U.K. and Europe and further. You will find Greek biscuits at something like a £1.25 a packet to great big jars of amazing Tuna at £50. A passionate selection of vinegars, cheeses and cured meats and of-course an amazing array of unique and interesting vegetables. These are but a few things you can find here the list is endless and everything carefully curated. There are things I’ve never seen before which makes one want to cook. I would advise anyone to go along and visit the lovely owner/team and to shop local! It’s a jewel in Ealing crown.

I was seriously excited to discover this shop yesterday, as I think that London, for all its boasts of being a gastronomic power house, is poorly served for fruit and vegetables by the supermarkets and grocers. It is as if the buyers of these products never ever taste them. Now, I note the comment of a negative reviewer here that she bought Gouda that was excessively hard, but rather than writing a negative review, she should have taken it back. I myself thought that the runner beans, some lettuces and the Cyprus potatoes all looked sad, and for that reason I did not buy them. But that did not deter me from buying other produce which thrilled me. The passion of the sales assistant Rose was infectious, and I sought her opinion in making my selection. I recommend anyone who cares about food to visit and make informed choices. True, I will not pay over £1 for a peach. Finding a good one at a price I will pay is one of the hardships of living in England, but the climate is hotting up.

Great store offering a little piece of the Mediterranean in Ealing. Definitely worth a visit to get something different for lunch or dinner with really tasty ingredients, fresh fruit and veg, good cheeses and breads. Really lovely staff, too!

The Ealing Grocer is magic. Beautiful food, personal service and a truly local ethos set it apart from the rest. They are a treasure.

Absolutely wonderful little grocers! The staff were wonderful, especially Katie who helped me for ages! Very welcoming and can't see myself buying fresh fruit, veg, cheese and deli meats from anywhere else. Thanks for being so wonderful, guys!

A very pretty shop but I won't be returning. Always trying to support local businesses it is sad I can not support this one. The prices are high but then it is Ealing but the quality should match the price. I made the mistake of asking for some Gouda from the round on display and should have been forwarned by the difficulty they had cutting it with a wire but was told it was the wax covering that made it difficult. It wasn't. When I got home and went to cut the cheese to use I discovered it was rock hard. Now I know Gouda is a firm cheese but I had to grate it to use it. If I had wanted parmesan I would have asked for it. If you are charging premium prices you must sell premium goods in perfect order. I suggest you check your cheeses in future.

I love thier coffee and it's a fantastic place for Sour dough, unfortunately they didn't have the sough dough on a Sunday but they have plenty of other amazing treats to be savoured....

We particularly like the range of vegetables, especially the ones you can't find in supermarkets. My daughter loves the cheese range and sourdough breads.
