Vegan Too Good to Go - Edit
One of the very few places I’ve seen that sell an all vegan TooGoodToGo(if you don’t know this app, I suggest you get to know it😉) for 3.33 I got a huge slab of vegan chocolate orange brownie, Suma vegan meatball chilli, roti, peppers, chilli peppers, tomatoes, carrots, mint, spinach, parsley, celery and I’m pretty sure I’m missing some stuff out! The best surprise bag and super friendly staff that hot spotted me because my internet wasn’t working🫶🏼

Best Independent Shop - Edit
Always love coming here, before veganism really started to become mainstream they had everything you could want and more and they’re going just as strong! Highly recommend a visit when wondering along Bold Street!

Great for vegan alternative-type food - Edit
There's some stuff they sell here I've never seen sold anywhere else locally, such as vegan black pudding. They sell nuts by the kilo and lots of cooking ingredients and seasoning. They sell fruit and veg you don't typically see in British shops such as plantains. They actually do a range of vegan wraps, burritos, and chimichangas you can put in your carryout.

Variety for vegans - Edit
I can't believe how many times I've walked past this place assuming it just had rice and noodles etc in. It's an aladins cave of interest. Loads vegan food. Ready meals,cheese sauces etc.

Pros: Variety, Cheaper than Liv

Wonderful health food / international store - Edit
Matta's is a treasure trove! So many essentials and treats under one roof. Love their fresh sourdough loaf. Staff are always super friendly, it's centrally located on Bold Street and the prices are not as high as other similar stores. Love this place.

Great shop for harder to find ingredients - Edit
I love this shop for staples such as nut milks, various tofu items and vegan deli items. Although it isn't totally vegan like the Purple Carrot on Smithdown Road, it also has lots of great value bulk buy items such as nuts, spices, grains and rice. They also stock raw chocolate and vego bars - so no more :-)

Great shop! - Edit
This shop has a delightful selection of vegan items from cheese to desserts. We bought a wide range of chocolates (Booja Booja) and fudge and greatly impressed our non-vegan friends who live in Liverpool.

Do not miss! - Edit
Matta's is such a wonderful shop. We always stock up on our spices, herbs, tofu, nuts, vegan chocolate, and beans (and much more!) each month. Very friendly and helpful staff and a wide range of products to suit both vegetarians and vegans.

Wide choice of vegan-friendly products - Edit
Popped in for a quick nosey and spent half an hour looking round. Lots of vegan-friendly products and all very well priced.

Matta's, Liverpool - Edit
Matta's bills itself as an international food shop and not as a health food shop. Some of their things on offer will almost certainly interest a large number of vegetarians of all persuasions (including vegan veggies).
Read moreHowever some of the things that they are offer are quite obviously not vegetarian without having to read label the to see the ingredients (eg dead fish in the freezer compartment). I personally find this somewhat off putting and I have one friend who refuses to go there on account of this. Having said that though they do have some brilliant stuff in Matta's and some veg*n friendly things that I'm not aware in any of the health food shops in Liverpool. I find myself going there a bit more regularly. Its a real shame about some of the things that they sell so far that reason I am unable to rate it higher than this.

Plenty of vegan options amongst others and good value for money (especially the bulk bags of dried beans).

Many vegan products - Edit
Matta's was a life saver while in Liverpool as it stocks plenty of vegan products including spreads, milks, faux meats... Matta's is not at all, however, a 100% veg shop. Helpful and friendly staff.
