About Us

From our little hippy hub on Oxford Rd in Manchester and expanding to a health food haven with our shop, plant based café and now our webshop, we’ve been trading ethically for 50 years. Our focus on natural, organic, eco-friendly, vegan & vegetarian (we don’t stock any meat products, and never have) and herbal lifestyles.



We’re known as a ‘Mancunian institution’ for our knowledge and integrity, fuelling the weird & wonderful for generations. We always support small business, and find they are the best for innovation! Everything we sell is always cruelty free, and tried & tested by the team too – we never stock anything we don’t like and don’t use ourselves.

We’re a co-operative, that has a diverse set of members from all walks of life. We’re fair tax accredited, meaning we pay our fair share of tax (checked by the FairTax Mark), and are a living wage foundation employer too.

We’ve got a long history, and we’re so happy you decided to join in! Dive in, and become part of the Eighth Day Family!
