The place to go for vegan food and sundries

Great selection of both wholefoods and treats, as well as general lifestyle products.

Always feel welcome and appreciated as a customer.

Best Vegan Store West of well anywhere. That's the advantage on living on a round planet

Charlie and her family run probably the best vegan store I've found in the UK.

Always cheerful, knowledgeable and friendly, they stock all you will ever need and more.

Charlie also organises awesome Vegan Mini Markets every month.

A must visit if you're in Swansea

Pros: Cheerful and Friendly staff , Wide range of products, Just go there you'll see

Local legend

So grateful to have Charlie and Brontosaurus in Swansea. Unfortunately this means I spend way too much money on cheese!!

Great little resource.

Friendly welcome. Had just what we needed. It’s inside a lovely indoor market with lots to see including a vegan cafe called Nonna’s. The indoor market also has toilets.

Brontosaurus Vegan Store

Great all vegan store within the indoor market. Lovely owner who was happy to advise and chat, a very warm welcome. Excellent range of products including some I’d not seen before. Stocked up with plenty of goodies for my onward trip to the Gower. Look forward to visiting again one day.

Top shop

Started doing a monthly general shop here, as they offer most household essentials but completely plant based. They also promote other small vegan/plant based businesses on their socials too.

Updated from previous review on 2023-01-15

Pros: Full of vegan options and plenty of stock. , Always friendly and informative service. , Open every day of the week.

Cons: A lot of single use packaging.

Great selection of groceries

There is a great selection of groceries and if we had our own kitchen, I might have bought more. We ended up buying chocolate (the ones we can’t get in Australia mostly) and some chips. The owner was so lovely. She told us about a vegan market on tomorrow which we will go to. She was really helpful and nice.

Fabulous store

Love love love Brontosaurus! Was on a campervan tour of South Wales, and we were in Swansea for the day, and popped to the indoor market to shelter from the rain 🌧 😀

Lots of goodies, some things i recognised from the supermarket, some i didn't. We had a good nosey around and bought some snacks for the rest of our trip!

Picked up lots of leaflets of local eateries but i couldn't find them (first time in Swansea) so ended up in Subway (mehhh) for lunch.

Pros: Lots more options than in main supermarkets, Friendly owner, Lots of local leaflets for eatieries and festivals

Cons: Not near me 😢

Great little vegan stall, amazing variety

This little vegan store is located inside swansea market and is great for getting vegan foods you usually can't find in supermarkets. They have a large variety of foods including frozen and chilled foods, sweet and savoury. The staff are very friendly and helpful, if you need any advice on a product they can help. I was very impressed by how many great brands they offer there. I can't wait to shop there again!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Don't have to check any labels , Great staff willing to give advice and tips

Cons: A little bit expensive for certain things

Lovely little staff

Found this lovely little stall in Swansea Market. Charlie the owner is so lovely, warm and friendly. Enjoyed my chat with her. Was very impressed on her Vegan activism when a customer walked in and said he is going to try vegan for 2 weeks and she got a basket full of helpful leaflets and offered to help.

Pros: 100% Vegan

Never let me down, always end up buying more than I went in for because there are so many products! If you’re looking for a veg replacement for ANYTHING they will have it! Always super friendly and helpful in there too.
