Much newer than the original Hill Street grocer means it's far better set out and easier to get…read morearound in as well. The deli staff will slice you meat from very vague requests, after offering you a taste (it would be great if they had a list displayed of all those slabs they keep behind them), they also do tubs of salads and have a great selection of bits and pieces (pickled octopus, olives, capsicum, feta, sardines etc.) and storemade meals to reheat, the bread and cakes are a selection from various local bakers (the vanilla slices are amazing and HUGE), the fruit and veggies are fresh and often local - and generally much cheaper than at Coles or Woollies, the cheese selection is great (if often too expensive for my wallet), and the grocery items (chips, biscuits) are often on special too (the blocks of Cadbury chocolate are always $3, so often better value than the chain supermarkets, but they keep them behind the counter so you do have to request them). They do coffee, though I've never tried it, and hot soup in winter. Unlike the original Hill Street they don't do wine, but there is a bottleshop next door.
It's much frequented by locals, particularly after school/work, at lunchtime, and on weekends, so the car park can get a little crowded.
