Walking in to Fortwilliam Greengrocers is like being Marty McFly and going back in time, for a start, how often do you see greengrocers these days? Not very often for me. Everything about this store is authentic and old school in the best possible way. Even the sign is something you'd expect to see in black and white photographs.
The shop is on a corner plot which means they have loads of items outside, yard brushes, flowers and fresh fruit and veg. You can have a good nosey at their produce without actually going in doors.
They have loads of organic, looking fruit, as well as some 21st century items like sweets and snacks. When I went in yesterday it was being run by a single lady but she had everything under control, a proper shopkeeper for a proper shop. This wee part of The Antrim Road is like a throwback to a bygone era. Next to the greengrocers there's a butchers and a baker. All we are missing is a candle stick maker - but who knows that could be next.
