Biovita Sint-andries - Bruges

Upon entering the restaurant, you will first pass through a section with lifestyle products such as hemp and chia seeds, superfoods, vitamin supplements, and Birkenstocks. As you make your way through, you will find a selection of teas, eco cleaning products, dried herbs, spices, bio dairy products, tofu, seitan, vegan pates, and more. There is also a chilled food and bread counter, along with a section for gluten-free and allergen-related foods. The store offers a variety of products including pasta made from alternative ingredients, cereals, tinned pulses, organic beers, and wines. It is important to note that in Belgium, glass containers often require a deposit which can be returned when you bring the container back to the store.

This is the oldest and largest of the three Biovita shops. There is parking available in the inner courtyard next door. The shop offers a wide selection of organic products, including a good variety of vegan items such as plant-based drinks and spreads that are not easily found in regular shops. However, I have noticed that the variety of vegan products, particularly those in the refrigerated section, has not changed much over the years, despite there being many more options available. It is also disconcerting to see a large meat counter in the shop. On the plus side, the shop also sells a lot of eco-friendly children's toys.

To begin your shopping experience at this restaurant, you'll first navigate through the lifestyle products like hemp and chia seeds, superfoods, vitamin supplements, and facial scrubs. You'll then come across birch sticks, ethical toys, and eventually reach the section of the shop you're likely most interested in. Take a right turn to find a good selection of teas, eco-friendly cleaning products (with refill options), dried herbs and spices, organic milk products, various forms of tofu (the Taifun smoked tofu being a standout), sausages, pate, and more. There's also a counter with chilled food and bread, situated uncomfortably close to the meat counter, followed by dried pulses and a "packaging free" range. Moving on, you'll find bio-vegetables, gluten-free and allergen-related foods, pasta alternatives, cereals, and more. Finally, you'll end up at the checkout, where you can browse organic beer and wines. It's worth noting that in Belgium, many glass containers require a deposit that you can get back by returning them to the shop. This applies to items like vegan pate in glass jars and most beer bottles.

First they need to get their way through the more lifestyle-oriented products, such as hemp and chia seeds, which I actually buy, the latest superfoods, vitamin supplements, facial scrubs, etc., then birkenstocks, ethical toys and finally they are in the part of the shop they probably really want. turn right and there is a good selection of tees, eco-cleaning products with the possibility to refill, dried crimped and seasoned are at the back end of the shop, but not entirely up to the standard of an Indian or Turkish super market. continental in the clockwise sense you will find, organic milk products, many tofu in various forms taifun smoked tofu is the best! including a lot of sausages depends on when they go, how good the selection is, side, vegan pate’s etc. next are the bio-Veggies, and then it is gluten-free and other allergenic foods, pasta from other things than standard wheat, pasta, tinted impulses etc. after that it goes back to the bank via the organic beer and wee. only a short point of note for non-Belgium, many dinge in belgium that have come back to glass containers

There's a great addition to bio, durable and vegetarian products. Maybe a more extensive assortment can come to vegan cheese. I still miss this. There's also been cosmetics offered, and I really think this is a plus.
