What Customers Are Saying
“Angela and the team are kind, thoughtful and very insightful in their knowledge and recommendations. I’ve personally been through a very difficult year with digestive issues and The Natural Food Store has been a significant part of my recovery. They don’t try to suggest loads of confusing options they simply recommend what is right for your needs and how to best ease any symptoms. Amazing team!”

“Not sure I’m truly qualified to comment, since I’ve only known the store for 15 years or so. I visit a lot of health stores on my travels and Norwich’s finest is genuinely one of the best; knowledge, service, product quality. It’s not the largest store and so doesn’t keep every brand but that makes them more selective. No faddy products to make a quick buck, just brilliant practitioner-level advice, which is what really counts!!”
