Welcome To It's About Thyme

NOW BRINGING YOU NATIONWIDE DELIVERY

It’s About Thyme is a small family owned shop, in Shanklin on the Isle of Wight, where we welcome customers and deliver locally and nationwide

We are passionate about the Island, its produce and its producers. We are also passionate about what people eat and where it comes from; provenance. You will find Isle of Wight goat, Isle of Wight or Hampshire free range pork, Isle of Wight beef wherever possible, Isle of Wight lamb, when available.

In the shop Gareth will serve you local meats in the butchery. Sarah is ready to serve you wonderful Italian Bristol Coffee, locally made and homemade cakes and snacks, such as scotch eggs and Bad Boy sausage rolls, pork pies and pasties. We also have a small menu of foods made to order, such as toasted sourdough sandwiches made with Lost Mill bread, which you can buy in the shop. Fruit and veg, local and small batch made cheese, local products and other foods and organic products by small producers around the country and the world are also available for your to take home. We are a farm shop on a high street.

Located in the Solent, the Isle of Wight benefits from a mild climate (more sunshine than any other place in England), fertile land, good air quality and a longer growing season. With many microclimates the Island is ideal for growing and raising. Famous for tomatoes, garlic, asparagus, cherries and apricots, the Island is still England’s best kept secret when it comes to food.

The Island’s milder climate and clean, sea air as well as it’s diverse geology are ideal for farming. Covered in rolling down lands and surrounded by chalky cliffs the Island has become a food lovers heaven.

We dry age beef on the premises and make our own sausages and burgers by hand and cure our own bacon using Free Range Hampshire Pork.

In our shop in Shanklin you can buy anything in any number over the counter. We have many creations that are unique to us – It’s About Thyme Bangers and Sunny Island handmade Sausages, as well as your favourites – minted lamb croquettes with melting middle Garlic or Mushroom Sauce, handmade burgers (beef, lamb, dry aged rib, Thai turkey), summer kebabs, chicken kyivs, as well as roasting joints and prepared meats. If there is anything particular that you cannot find on our website please let us know. 

We are often asked by visitors and non permanent residents if we deliver off the Island and now we do. All of your favourite Isle of Wight producers in one shop.

We are very selective about what we sell and who we buy from. We do genuinely care about the welfare of the animals that come to us and we also care about what our customers eat. We also use many local products in our creations, such as Isle of Wight Tomatoes and Briddlesford Butter.

We will slowly, but surely, be bringing you some recipes to try with the produce we have available.
