WAITROSE - Our First Ever Visit - Vegan Shopping

We took the plunge at last and had a drive out to our nearest Waitrose which is around 30 minutes drive for us. Have a look at what we found there.

Posting this on the evening we uploaded this waitrose Vlog as we've had the Indian feast bag for dinner and it was truly fabulous. Delicious and so cheap for such a great and diverse meal for two. Highly recommended.

[@steffimoreau6787]

Hey, you guys! I finally made it to England, just for a tiny little vacation. I live in Germany. I went to all the shops you're always vlogging about. Oh my! I finally got my hands on the Cathedral City cheese, the Hoisin No Duck wraps from M&S, the no steak bakes, the sausage rolls and the cheese cake. We never ever get these things in Germany, and I may have to book double seats on my way home, but dammit, Barbra, I will eat my way through all the vegan goodies, even if it kills me! Love you guys! ❤❤

[@gillwoolley6515]

Although a slightly higher price point, the essentials range is a very reasonable price ❤

[@davidjones6470]

8:53 that looks good and at £11,

[@davidjones6470]

30:41 Jasons face says it all 😉😂

[@janegoodfellow1529]

32:15 My top moment - what the security guard might have been saying to himself, and Jason planning what he wore for the Waitrose trip! 😂❤

[@addamhewitt]

Your waitrose poo poos all over my local one. Can't believe how much stuff, they have. Lucky to get 1 cheese and maybe a curry in mine. I might have to pop back, to mine, hopefully they've upped thier game now 💚💚💚

[@mutharosie]

Definitely going to check out our nearest Waitrose, choice of vegan options looks amazing ❤

[@johncrwarner]

Historially Waitrose supermarkets were placed in small market towns and definitely targeted the middle classes. When I lived in Oxfordshire towns like: Witney, Wallingford, Banbury used to have them. My memory of them was the veg was good quality as were their ready-meal stuff - a bit like M&S Simply Food. I was never a regular user but if you wanted a slightly exotic veg or fruit they were always worth a trip.

[@sumoody1325]

Brilliant, thanks, I wish the vegan signs were bigger. Plants marked on Waitrose goods is v big and clear. Enjoy !

[@janegoodfellow1529]

The display of plant milks is a sight for sore eyes 🌱🙏🥰

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Wow, all those ready meals 👏 There must be a demand among regular Waitrose shoppers, which is heartening.

[@paulinemccoll8169]

You make not only my day better but my life, love you guys so much, ty for sharing and spreading your knowledge of veganism as I’m totally onboard now , once again I thank you so much for making a big difference as I am in such a much better place, mentally & physically now, much love to you both my friends Xxx

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Love to read that Pauline. Much love. Xxx

[@janegoodfellow1529]

It's the same for me Pauline - the guys make me life better 🤗🙏

[@Chill_Jill]

Being American, when I saw "Waitrose", I thought you had a pushy subscriber named Rose who was demanding more videos!! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣❤❤❤ LOL

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

LOL

[@willchris9708]

Wow, can't believe just how much choice there is! There isn't a waitrose near us but will think about stopping by one if we see it in the future. Thanks again lads xx

[@ice7647]

Wish I had a Waitrose near me love summer pudding haven't had it since I was a kid

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Glad you treated yourself to the Rhythm 108 bar. Super-cute how Jason sanctioned/encouraged the purchase!

[@antoniaparsons7457]

the indian meal looks good. very tempted by the galic dough balls. also, has anyone else found that the only mayo available is the helmans one?

[@Luluknights]

Waitrose is my favourite supermarket ❤

[@lissu2441]

Really enjoyed this one, thank you !

[@ashleyberrisford]

Just a pause to say that those Damm Lemon beers 🍋 are so soooo good! We LOVE them!! I’m 17 mins into the vlog and loving it 😁 you go Waitrose!

[@joinmeonthedarkside2]

Wow Some Not cheap but what a variety , good to see some with acceptable pricing though

[@rebeccagreen692]

I order from Ocado sometimes. Their vegan food is very delicious.

[@mariannewaszak8253]

Hi Paul and Jason!!! You guys always make me smile. Wish sometimes I lived in the UK that I might run into you. Love what you do just keep it up ❤❤❤

[@peakybean]

Nice to see you treating yourselves at Waitrose, we all need treats occasionally. That Indian meal deal looks lush !

[@alisonevans4447]

Love this vlog, shop from waitose bi-weekly and their quality never disappoints. My husband loves their Singapore noodles. Saw a few new things, thanks guys.

[@natashapeddle2810]

Yay you finally went to Waitrose! I commented before to say you should try there but you said it was quite far away. So pleased you went and loved it. I work for them 🥰 i tried the VFC chicken breasts for the first time last night coz we recently got them in at my store. Wrapped them in vegan bacon and smothered them in bbq sauce delicious!

[@custarddoughnut]

They also do an own-brand bar soap which is vegan and cruelty free and reasonably priced (4 bars appx £2)

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Good to know 🙏 Tesco do an even cheaper one btw - 25p each, and clearly marked. Makes my heart glad 🧼🌱🙏🥰

[@samroberts5131]

I love waitrose but its a schlep up the M55 and thru Preston to where it is... its every few months at best. Morrisons today had a new vegan range in, didnt have fone to take a pic and the names gone 🤯

[@2020Brigitte]

I went to Waitrose last weekend, but it was a tiny one and there was nothing in there! But you’ve definitely inspired me to get myself down to a larger store as I saw a few things I’d like to try. Thanks 👍

[@janegoodfellow1529]

18:02 All those fancy pastas!

[@jhumberstone6452]

I don't have a Waitrose nearby any more (there used to be one but it got replaced by a Lidl - I like Lidl but we already had 2 here!), I miss mooching around the store, but this has inspired me to have a look at getting a delivery, they seem to have a lot of new stuff since the last time I had a chance to look around.

[@VgnRaj]

It is fascinating what your favourite ready-to-go meals are. Sushi and Brown food are easy to find here in Canada but those lovely Sausage Rolls and "Meat" Pies would make a great head-to-head taste test. Yet another riveting vlog, gents.

[@davidjones6470]

32:25 paul 😂😂

[@jenniferchapman9645]

I just wanted to see Jasons face Waitrose !!!!x😂

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Good job Waitrose on the cleaning products 👏 Years ago there was almost nothing clearly marked. M&S are good for this too. And it seems like the other supermarkets are gradually catching up. We're getting there guys, and you're helping massively 🙏🌱🥰

[@FayJaneMartin]

My local Waitrose, please keep coming would be lovely to bump into you both sometime. Very lucky to have this Waitrose on my doorstep, have sampled most of the products you have shown in there. I particularly like the Singapore noodles as they have tofu in them. The chilli is very good, as are the takeaway bags. The Rhythm chocolate is my favourite too. You can always pop to Hillgate Cakery in Stockport on your way home to make it a vegan day out too! 🌱

[@paulinemccoll8169]

Love you both too , “ bye loves “ xxx

[@Laura_Suzanne]

You've given me a kick up the bum to visit Waitrose again! My nearest one is in Jesmond since the Newcastle Eldon Square one closed down. I always though Waitrose was the most expensive out of all the supermarkets but then I recall M&S Plant Kitchen Ravioli is around 3.50 or more so Waitrose it is.

[@chloegoodridge3723]

Aaa soo glad you went to Waitrose!!!! I work at my local one and it’s a goldmine for vegans😍 all the own brand stuff is clearly marked it’s great!!! I get 20% off everything so the prices are absolutely fine for me but I do understand it can be a lot for other people but it’s defo good for a few treats that you can’t get in other places! I would definitely recommend picking up the leek and mushroom plant living sausages when you next go in, I love them!!!! Thanks for another great vlog, I adore your shopping ones 🥰 hope you’re well :))) x

[@carlamathurin2941]

I’m too lazy to go to the shops but I get a Waitrose delivery every 5 - 6 weeks to bulk buy loo rolls and baked beans (no connection) as they’re great and great value. Then I add a load of the Waitrose Essentials. A couple of years ago Waitrose started really ensuring the Vegan labelling was prominently displayed and active changes loads of their own brand it’s to vegan.

[@emilyjess6418]

I do love your shopping vlogs and jumpers!

[@davidjones6470]

28:03 nice looking trolley there,

[@lyndamacdonald7168]

That was great thanks guys. Really nice to see all of the different things available to buy at Waitrose 😊

[@NickH74]

Ooh, I am the first to comment 🥳😂. Will be trying to catch you on Sunday’s live guys 👍🏻

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Yes you are!

[@lindajo1840]

What an excellent vlog! Great Ninja skills, well done. Their ready meals look a bit different. So glad you enjoyed the Indian treat. Super reviews. Another TVG Classic, thank you!💚🐱👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼💜

[@losmos0]

Awesome video. I've never been to Waitrose either so was chuffed to see you doing this shop! I think they deliver to my area so might give that a go soon ❤

[@felixgarnet]

"A gay man doing gay things" 😂😂😂

[@thelongeats6377]

those no chicken samosas are a staple for me!

[@CeravvvEgan]

Amazing! Love waitrose. Great prices for the stuff you got. I always found their own brand things very reasonable too. As a couple you HAVE to get 2 x packs of Magnums as they come in threes, otherwise who is getting two? 😂

[@davidjones6470]

Lemon beer!!!!! Mmmmmm, sound lovely,

[@CeravvvEgan]

Lovely shop! So glad you did the wines. I’m so interested to hear about the Romanian wine. I’ve had wine from many places but never from Romania. Lush!

[@davidjones6470]

Ooo, a bit posh init old Waitrose!!! Could be interesting, 🤔 because its a bit expensive!!!!

[@robingill7363]

TBH go posh! Great to see you have made the trip on your day off to explore. Hope you enjoyed and will go back. Waitrose is more expensive but the range is brilliant and loads of products you can't buy in many places. Labelling of own brand products is really good. The Deliciously Ella pasta is really nice and often on offer. I always stock up when it is. The Waitrose Plant Living pasta is also really nice and again often on offer too. Pieminster pies are often on offer on a 2 for offer. I've had a few of the Plant Living ready meals yellow stickered and they are really good and worth the price for sure. The Indian banquet bag for 2 is 10/10 Waitrose dried pasta is top notch. Best supermarket dried pasta.

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

That Indian feast was spectacular. Just finished it.

[@robingill7363]

​@@ThoseVeganGuysyep told you it was. Often yellow stickered when I go Waitrose so amazing value then. The various bits also freeze well too. Glad you enjoyed and look forward to this week's meals vlog. It would have made a good Saturday live

[@davidjones6470]

Straight away you Nailed that Thumbnail lads!!!!

[@lindajo1840]

Magnificent thumbnail!

[@clarehunt7209]

Haha oh you two make me chuckle ..... the jumper ! I love Waitrose there vegan stuff is divine !!! I only go occasionally normally to get the Indian otherwise I end up spending to much !!!! I do have a Waitrose loyalty card and last trip I had a voucher for £2.50 off my Indian 😋

[@King_Kenlee]

"Hes a gay man doing gay things" 😂great vlog guys

[@DavidJames-ro2bl]

Waitrose is great, i do an online shop and their quality is great, their customer service is always great. While prices are higher than a lot of other shops, i do find the quality better and so it makes it worth it. Please let us know what you thought of the £11 Indian meal, i might try one if it was any good.

[@davidjones6470]

😂😂 this cracked me already, nice one paul, 0:39!!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@davidjones6470]

£82 not that bad, Well again another fantastic shopping vlog, really helpful and a joy 2 watch so thank in you both for a great upload as always By the way love them jumpers lads,👍👍

[@janegoodfellow1529]

So glad you enjoyed the experience! I loved every minute of it 🛒❤

[@davidjones6470]

31:23 so I hope we have a review on the takeaway meal lads, next week, 😉👍 on the week of dinners,

[@janegoodfellow1529]

Agreed, the fruit and veg DOES look good in Waitrose. I rarely buy as it's a bit too pricey but when I have I've never been disappointed. Same with M&S fruit and veg.

[@mandy5313]

Love the intro😂

[@davidjones6470]

29:20 🤣🤣 29:23

[@plantsandrosewater]

Lovely video😊 I just wish Canada had all these options! 😂

[@RainbowVegansRock]

Oo I love the Taifun smoked tofu, I used to buy several from TVK supermarket and freeze.

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

It's so good!

[@davidjones6470]

Them reviews 👌 Yep good point jason,

[@karennurse4691]

That smoked tofu is so expensive but absolutely amazing 🤩

[@janegoodfellow1529]

I'd find it so stressful to do the ninja thing as always dread being told off! You are brilliant at it though and, if apprehended, would be able to charm your way out of the situation ☺ In any case, you're encouraging people to visit Waitrose, so noone should mind.

[@mattwallace7146]

Same as you guys I like to go every 6 weeks But I've never seen those tofu knot/curl things?!

[@davidoughton1954]

Another great blog

[@kirstifitzpatrick]

Wow great vlog I might treat myself to the summer pudding it looks lovely not had one of those for years got some great bits & things that lemon sauce bottle looks great too might have a trip to my local one next week but its not as big as yours so i might be disappointed 😊

[@yvonnebannon7623]

I’m late to the game but watching this and it’s so amazing! You have better vegan/vegetarian stuff than we do in the USA-looks wonderful. I am not vegan or vegetarian but my son is and he would do well with the selection that you have!! The ready made meals look great. Beyond meats is big here as well! Love you Guys!❤

[@tamcon72]

A nice loooooong vlog! Prices here are more in line with what we pay for stuffs in the Upper Midwest of the US, but with far better a selection. Very useful for people who live near a Waitrose, I'm sure; I'd shop there all the time if I lived over there because I'd feel like I was getting a bargain, LOL! Thanks for posting 🙂

[@TraceyLTims]

Waitrose goods look incredible and so much variety.

[@davidjones6470]

Them pieminister pies looked ok,

[@fat_vegan_slim]

How long does one of these shopping trips take you? You must be there longer than the staff! lol P.s. I do love these shopping vlogs, really helpful to make shopping quicker for me and gives new ideas and inspiration

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

A few hours including travel and editing. Love it though

[@hoyly2]

I love Waitrose at Cheadle, it’s not far from me

[@mrsb269.]

Oooh going tomorrow now

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Enjoy

[@MostlyLoveOfMusic]

Juicy Marbles steaks are so good.... just a shame of the price for some of these things

[@dorcas9370]

Glad you got to Waitrose chaps - during the lockdown I started online shopping with Ocado, who were then partnered with Waitrose. If you shopped with your sensible head on there were some quality bargains to be had. The one time we actually went to our nearest Waitrose store, which is 20 odd miles away, we were very impressed with the quality and variety of the fresh foods. Most note-worthy though was the great service from the staff there. An elderly lady was going through the checkout next to us, and when he had finished her transaction, the cashier closed his till and carried out her shopping the car and made sure she was safely packed away. Well done that man! Sadly Ocado are now partnered with M & S so Waitrose is just a distant memory! We have a fortnightly delivery from Ocado with 'staples' and then generally haunt Aldi and Sainsburys. By the way, we tried your mushy pea and frozen pea mixture the other night and it was flipping lovely! I added a drizzle of mint sauce on mine and it was brilliant! It will feature again very soon - I'm calling it Paul's Northern Guacamole - nom nom nom. xx

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

LOL x

[@leroybrown7757]

..what an absolute 'PLETHORA' of 🌱V. choices and y'all's food prices...😮 absolutely jealous lovely to see tho -tracee p.s. ponzu is amazing for tofu marinades & Asian dishes

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Thank you for the ideas for the sauce. Needed. X

[@davidjones6470]

20:58 🤣🤣 oh, 21:00

[@davidjones6470]

29:57 HOW MUCH!!!!!!!

[@janecox4173]

Ooohhhhh fancy pants. Looked good though x

[@Luluknights]

It is slightly more expensive but in my personal opinion it’s better than Tesco and Asda

[@alisonmountain1166]

As per previous comment, your Waitrose really trumps my nearest. It’s in Sheffield city centre but its vegan shizzle is very poor indeed. That aside, their own brand is great especially for vegan & cruelty free products. Thank you for the vlog 🌱❤️

[@leehellam9719]

The nearest one to me is about 35 miles away! Would like to go for a nosy around! Have you got any Booths Supermarkets nr you? They’re considered the northern equivalent of Waitrose!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Our nearest booths is over an hour away

[@totoshuman7664]

its 30 minutes from us too ..l will have a nosey now

[@MostlyLoveOfMusic]

I wonder if anything is vegan at Harrods or Fortnam & Masons... looking forward to your first times there haha

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

LOL

[@vickyfroment]

Ooh do Taifun still make tofu hot dogs? They are blimmen lovely, as is the smoked tofu. The Waitrose near me used to stock both, i would go in for those and come out with a handful of treats and a receipt for £70. It's dangerous but they have some good stuff!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

The hot dogs were right there at the side of the tofu

[@vickyfroment]

@@ThoseVeganGuys they are so good!

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

@@vickyfroment yeah we've had them before, from unicorn also

Brilliant price for the Magnums! 🍭🍦🫐 Will look forward to hearing what you think of them. (I'm afraid to buy as could eat my way through a whole pack in one go!)

[@ThoseVeganGuys]

Looking forward to trying one later
