A hazy NEIPA, a co-ferment coffee, a cherry-ish natural wine from the Jura. Find the shops nearby that stock it.

Back independents

Every listing is a real local business. Wherever you are, you’re putting money back into the community.

There's always more to a city than what's trending online.

Why local matters

Independent shops are what make a neighbourhood feel like home. Most owners can't afford big marketing, but they have something better: locals who love them. Rooted helps those locals spread the word. Because an empty table is just a place nobody told you about.
