27 Dew Street, Haverfordwest

Our story

A small shop front with a big world behind it.

From the street, The Spice Box is a green sign and a bay window. Inside, the shelves run floor to ceiling. Whole spices and seeds sit in neat rows behind handwritten labels, sacks of rice are stacked by the window, and noodles and sauces fill whole aisles. Fresh produce arrives by the box.

It's a shop for cooks. Some come in for a single ingredient a recipe asks for, and some come in for the flavours of home. Plenty come in just to see what's on the shelves. We serve home cooks and trade customers alike.
