Current Affairs

We absolutely love this place. Try their hummus - it is superb!! Their pizzas and cakes are equally sumptuous,

This is an excellent though small health food shop in the Leicester shopping district. The home baked scones, muffins, flapjacks and luncheon pies and pastries are especially nice. It has the feel of an upscale deli to it.

Currant Affairs is based on the edge of the town centre, in the non-mainstream area of town, and is a great little shop catering to vegetarian, vegan, wholefood, organic and specialist diets. Amazingly well stocked, and the freshly produced snacks and cakes are wonderful (I recommend the carrot cake). The staff are friendly and helpful, with a good knowledge of their products. I love browsing the window trying to decide what to try this time, and once inside I invariably find something new for the kitchen cupboard too. I’ve been shopping there on and off for over 15 years now, and they haven’t let me down yet.

This is a great little independent shop. They sell a massive range of health foods, organic products and specialist products such as gluten free for a reasonable price. The staff are always friendly and will always try and answer your questions or recommend a product for your needs.

The best thing about this shop is the food that’s made on site each day, a lovely variety of veggie snacks great for lunch. They do veggie sausage rolls, samosas, pizza slices, pasties as well as fresh sandwiches in an awesome array of interesting flavours. You pay a decent price and get something filling and more healthy than something from your average sandwich shop. They also do lovely cakes and all of their tasty food is displayed in the windows with handy labels so if you’re veggie or vegan or have food sensitivities then you know which one is right for you!

Big thumbs up, although I can’t say I liked the mushroom and tofu pasty I had a while ago, but everything else is fab!
