Herbs by the bunch, for the finish
Spitalfields Fruit & Veg supplies fresh soft and woody herbs by the bunch to restaurants, hotels, bars and caterers across London and the M25. Herbs are bought on the market floor at New Spitalfields in Leyton, E10, and delivered on your agreed days so they arrive fresh for service.

How Ben buys it
Little and often
Soft herbs are best a day or two from the market. Keep them on every drop rather than ordering a week's worth at once.
Mint for the bar
Bars get through mint faster than any other herb. Put it on your standing order with the citrus.
Specialist lines
Micro herbs and edible flowers are not on every stand every day. Ask Ben before you put them on a menu.
Questions
Do you supply micro herbs and edible flowers?
Ask Ben. They are specialist lines, so check with him what he can get and how often before you build a dish around them.
How should herbs be ordered?
By the bunch, little and often. Soft herbs keep best when they arrive close to when you use them.
