I love Wasteless Pantry. They have a great range of dry goods - it's a very rare thing that I can't find something I need. They are always helpful and friendly and frequently recognise me by name. I feel like part of my community shopping here. Its also great to have a resource to cut down on my personal plastic use.

Fabulous, sustainable, economical and the way everyone should shop. The staff are very helpful, the store is immaculately clean and I always feel there are new products everytime I go. I cannot recommend a more deserving small business to support.

Have been coming here for a while now and am adding more and more things to my list each time. It's great to get home and think I didn't have to throw a plastic packet from pasta in the bin which I'd usually buy each week, bottles of handwash or bags from flour, to name a few. And it's easy to buy a little bit of something if that's all you need. Such a great concept.

I've been shopping here weekly since they opened. The store is always super clean and tidy, the staff are all fantastic and they have a great range of dried products, herbs and spices, local coffee, and cleaning products. Not only do you save of packaging, but they also take care to check things like palm oil content etc in their product lines to ensure you're getting the best possible. Their prices might not be the cheapest, but they're not over the top, and the best thing is you can buy exactly what you need and no more, so minimising food wastage. It's also a good place to look for hard to find

Just wanted to give a huge thank you to the staff at WP Greenwood today (one in particular who will know who she is!) for going out of their way to help me with my purchases today. This sudden lockdown has… presented me with some issues I didn’t know I had and this staff member went out of her way to help me and see that I had all my containers filled easily ◡̈ from the bottom of my heart, thank you!

I regularly come here for groceries. Great variety of common as well as hard to find items and at a great price too. The employees are very helpful and if you leave them with a list they will measure and store your food for you while you shop elsewhere. The store also has a variety of recycling boxes for things such as plastic bottle caps and can tabs, as well as a jar donation box. You don't even need to bring your own jars to shop as there is a large basket at the front of the store that holds a variety of different jars that have been previously donated. There are
