Top 6 places to buy local produce

Treat yourself to something new whilst supporting some of the town’s hard-working local producers.

  • Lockett Bros: Having opened in 2004, Lockett Bros stock a wide range of wine, beer and spirits, including NB Gin. This famous gin has been served at the Brit Awards no less and is sold all over the world. However, with it being stilled, blended, bottled and labelled in North Berwick, Lockett Bros has to be the best place to buy it.
  • whynot?: For a truly unique range of products, visit whynot? on North Berwick High Street. This shop has allowed numerous local producers to rent a space for their stall for a day, week, month or even longer. You’ll therefore find products here that you won’t find anywhere else. www.whynotnorthberwick.com
  • North Berwick Artisans: Another opportunity to buy a unique range of products is available at the Artisan Fair, held regularly at the Abbey Church in North Berwick. A variety of local artists showcase their products, from glass to textiles, wood to ceramics, printed designs to foodstuffs, and much more in between.
  • L’Argenette: Run by a local jewellery designer who can create bespoke pieces of jewellery from both old and new pieces, you’ll come away from L’Argenette with something truly special. www.north-berwick.co.uk/largenette
  • Bostock Bakery: With sour dough breads, high end patisserie and French-style pastries all freshly made every day, a visit to Bostock Bakery can present you with quite a dilemma over which delicious treat to take home. Additionally, if you’re planning a wedding or another special occasion anytime soon, pop into the bakery to see what kind of cake they could create just for you.
  • Anderson’s Quality Butcher: Anderson’s has been a firm favourite with locals for many years now. With their tasty scotch pies, stir-fries and chicken and ham pies (to name just a few) it’s no wonder it remains part of the weekly shop for many families.
