Fairline

Fairline is a fabulous grocers on Green Lanes. In an area awash with fresh food suppliers Fairline is, alongside Yassir Halim across the road, the best in this Turkish area of London.
The fruit and vegetables are supremely fresh, and unlike supermarket provisions it doesn’t go off as soon as you walk through your front door. There is a wide variety and you should be covered for any recipe you should choose to rip from a TV chef’s book. Fairline lost a star due to its failure to provide me with baby onions once. I should add that the bulbous spring onions were still perfectly suitable.
Should you require any cooking ingredient you’ll be covered here; tinned vegetables, herbs, spices, cheeses, and even cooking tools add to the selection. The staff are really friendly and useful, they also cope with the occasional large but understandable queues that develop. It is a popular shop and with good reason. Should you find yourself moving to the area then Fairline should be your port of call for groceries. Get the meat at Sainsbury’s.
