Welcome

Tobermory Stores is a local, independent grocer and delicatessen at the end of Tobermory's Main Street, in a pale blue building under a green sign.

It sells a wide range of the Isle of Mull's own produce, from local meat and cheese to biscuits and shortbread, alongside Scottish and British family brands with a long history, and it has plenty of organic, fair trade, vegan and gluten-free food.

It is also the place to stock up for a day out: it makes filled breakfast rolls, sandwiches and salad boxes, coffee, cakes and snacks, hot and cold food to take away all day, and packed lunches and deli boxes. It opens early, at 7am from Monday to Saturday, and later on Sunday; hours can change with the season, so check if you are going late. The painted harbour front, the pier and the whale centre are all a short walk along Main Street.
