Such a special and important shop. I've been coming here for almost 3 years now, even since I moved further away from Hackney Downs I still come here because it's just such a lovely place with an incredible range of products, the value for money is excellent, the owner and staff are always really kind and helpful. Apart from all the environmental reasons for using a zero waste shop I find it a very calming experience to weigh and measure out everything you need and slow down a little bit :)

R. F.

This shop is just a gem! I have been going there for more than 2 years now, I love the concept, and they have a wide average of product. Recently they add the fresh peanut butter cream, which is so good, and so many others product. We should have more shop like this to make the world waste free, or at least to produce less waist. I hope this will be the future.

Re:Store is one of those places that when you go the first time you know instantly that this will now become you routine. The concept makes so much sense and the way they have designed the shop makes it super easy. The products are also incredibly well curated and, not at least, delicious. Re:Store is now a big part of my weekly shop and I wouldn't have it any other way. Extra plus for all the help you also get from incredibly insightful and happy staff!! Well done!

This is such a beautiful shop with so many lovely products. Everything is so nicely laid out and there’s lots of delicious treats in there, it’s easy to get carried away! Lots of ideas to be more sustainable and some things that I hadn’t seen before. Megan who owns it is really lovely and helpful. You can tell how much she loves the shop and cares about the products she sells and sustainability as a whole, which is really inspiring! There are jars and containers available to buy if you forget to bring anything with you to store your goods. It’s in a great area with lots of other nice shops around it - definitely worth a visit.

Fantastic little shop. It's important that people support businesses like this to help move the world away from throwaway culture, and stem the tide of plastic waste. From personal experience though it is also a joy to shop here; they have a range of organic products which don't appear to be much more expensive than the larger shops (in some cases the spices and herbs are cheaper) and the owner and staff are so friendly and helpful. They even take onboard feedback from customers and try to stock requested items frequently. Will definitely keep going back.

Amazing shop. The least intimidating of all zero waste shops I've been to, and I always end up paying less than I would've expected to pay in a supermarket. Also they sell the best dried apricots ever! :)

T. R.

Love this shop. We’ve been going here for the past two years and have had a lot of joy from the slow pace - filling your jars - and from living more and more plastic free! The deli section is impossible to ignore. Delicious vegan cheeses, lovely condiments. Also a vegan candy jar section! There are often new products to try from other local/resourceful/kind/plastic free businesses, and we’re always amazed at how cheap everything for the kitchen cupboard is! Love the ethos and obvious care that has gone into curating this shop.

ReStore is an absolute gem. They have a large selection of food, cleaning and hygiene products at very competitive prices. I have been going there for two years now and get 80% of my cupboard food from there. Special mention to the great coffee that they ground freshly for you. The owner and the staff are all super lovely too.

B. C.

I love this shop. I don't live locally but will go out of my way to visit when I can. The products are of the highest quality and competitively priced. My favourites include the solid shampoo and conditioner blocks - the nicest I've found anywhere.

We need more shops like Re:Store in London and everywhere really. The shop is lovely. Shopping there is almost a spa session in itself: there's nice relaxing music playing in the background, everything is pretty, lots of glass and wood and upcycled furniture, it's small and not crowded, so you don't feel overwhelmed. Megan and her staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. I've discovered lots of new, quirky products like the pina colada vegan sweets and tiger nuts! There's a nice selection of vegan cheese which is still not something easy to find. You know that in this shop, it's only great products that have been carefully selected, products you can trust with your eyes closed: organic, vegan, natural products from small local producers mostly, all environmentally friendly and we need more of these in our lives. Enjoy your visit, you'll love it!

Great products, great prices. You don't have to sacrifice quality or your wallet when you go zero waste! I refill most of my household products and dry goods from this shop. It has been fantastic during lockdown. I usually go for a walk around Hackney Downs after shopping.

E. D.

The products from Re:store have been thought about so carefully, every time I buy a new item I’m amazed at the quality of each. They have a particularly great beauty/wash range, and theres always a brilliant selection of grains and pulses.

The range available here is wonderful, you can find all the weekly food shop and household items, plus extra goodies you weren't looking for. They even have oat milk on tap!!! Meg and her team are charming and helpful, and the set-up is organised to be very covid-safe. A great shopping experience all round!

A. B.

Absolutely love this store. The range of products is all you need and service is so friendly too. Made it so easy to reduce packaging and plastic when it comes to my food shop. Highly recommend!

j. A.

The shop is a fantastic concept and is well stocked with a great range for cooking , home and presents . The kombucha on tap is brilliant . I love all the spices , the vegan sweets .. puffed quinoa : who knew ?? Meg is super knowledgeable and friendly and willing to answer any of my questions . Thoroughly recommend this shop .

Great store, really nice friendly staff with a good range of plastic free cupboard and cleaning essentials. The vegan cheeses and pick and mix alone make it definitely worth a visit!

T. W.

I have used a few products from Re:Store. They have all been fantastic but my favourite is the eco coconut dish brush. If you want to help the environment what better way than to support this zero waste shop.

T. H.

Beautiful shop with a wonderful selection of tasty goodness alongside brilliant household essentials, whether I want a shampoo bar or some nuts for my porridge, I know it will be served with a friendly smile. Highly recommended!

R. A.

Excellent range of dried fruits, nuts and cereals plus household cleaning products and cooking oil. Friendly, helpful staff helping to keep us going in lockdown. And no/low packaging is brilliant - thank you

O. J.

Nice range of products - wish they had more. Particularly love the cashews!

C. C.

Such a wonderful shop. Competitively priced and thoughtful range served with a smile. My absolute go to for dried goods. (And vegan sweets).

S. C.

My favourite zero waste store! Such a great selection of quality products and always coming up with new ones. Best way to shop plastic free.

K. B.

This was my first time shopping in a zero waste store and it was surprisingly easy and enjoyable. If you don’t want to carry your own containers over you can buy cloth bags to dispense things like oats and grains into. Prices were comparable to supermarkets and there was a good range of spices, store cupboard ingredients and toiletries. I even bought a lovely reusable coffee cup that doesn’t leak at all!

Embarked on a plastic free/zero waste mission a couple of years ago and it wouldn’t be possible without this amazing store on my doorstep. Great choice, good value and lovely staff. Really couldn’t ask for more!

S. H.

The best RE:Store one could ask for. Great products, great staff and situated in a really cool courtyard- The perfect place to do your weekly shop and then hang out in the sun.

K. F.

Prompt response and quick delivery. I use Fitpit deodorant which is AMAZING! No chemicals and it really works. An added bonus is it comes in a recycled glass jar. What’s not to love? ❤️

L. U.

I love this shop, refill zero waste products that are actually affordable and sometimes even cheaper than supermarket prices (the herbs and spices). Always love to support them when I can!

P. P. S.

What a great finding! We need to look after our planet and start reducing plastic, it is a great concept. The shop is great and the variety of products is amazing, from food, healthcare products to reusable containers. I am definitely trying to make changes in my shopping and visit this little gem often!

G. G.

This shop is really worth it a visit! It has many products, the prices are either the same as the supermarket or even cheaper, but with greater quality. There are also cleaning products to refill, extra virgin olive oil and much more! Unfortunately I don't live in London right now, but as soon as I am back this shop will be my favourite for groceries! :)

D. C.

The best refill place we've found in Hackney! Has so much stuff - white vinegar, bicarbonate of soda, all the spices, all the household products, amazing dried mango, the list goes on. Really well priced too

B. G.

Love this place, so many lovely products, particularly their greetings cards. Always make a special trip when we’re in the area, just wish we lived closer so we shop here all the time.

s. u.

I love how down to earth this store is. It's really easy to check if the shop has what you want before you visit, either through Instagram or the website, and it usually has some form of whatever you're after. And friendly, efficient service!

V. C.

A great store to help you reduce the amount of plastic you use, that is the same price as (if not cheaper than) buying at the supermarket. So you get to save both unnecessary waste and your money! You can also ask for certain products to be stocked and the owner, Meg, is really friendly and knowledgeable and more than happy to answer any questions.

G. T.

Really good range of products and super informative and inspiring for how to start my zero waste way of living. It did seem a bit daunting at first but the refil and scales set up at the shop is easy to use and I look forward to making it a regular habit.

K. F.

Great prices, seeks out products that genuinely reduce waste, especially plastic - eg only sells refills from containers that are themselves refilled. A shop that thoughtfully aims at sustainability - please support it!

K. P.

Brilliant shop. Easy to shop daily essentials and a great place to start a zero waste journey. Really affordable and a lovely welcome on arrival. Excited to make this place my new local.

N. R.

Great store, huge variety, lots of pots to re-use and decent prices especially for the dried goods!

L. B.

Great store with lots of plastic free items. Asking customers what they want to have stocked and making it happen. Pleased with my purchases and seemed cheaper than some other eco-stores.

N. B.

A great shop to encourage those first steps into plastic-free living. Great mix of daily essentials from food to hand gel. Can’t wait to visit again

N. W.

Very fortunate to live a short walk from this important and handy local store that allows us to keep things that extra but more sustainable. All manner of personal washes, domestic cleaning products, food and more available here

D. S.

Lovely little store and I was surprised how easy it was to shop zero waste, you can really tell when you get home about the lack of rubbish when comparing it to the usual shop. Prices were reasonable and friendly staff.

R. W.

Good range of unpackaged grains, nuts and spices - lots of them organic. Also household and beauty products.

K. H.

Restore is a fantastic way to reduce the impact on the planet of your weekly shop. It's so reasonably priced as well! I love it and will be coming back regularly :)
