OMG this Countdown is the biggest one I've ever been to! It is so huge and very clean and well…read moreorganized too. I loved the free parking (seems to be rare in the CBD), though it's well monitored, so if you're planning to park and ditch, be careful. I have to pee like 90% of the time, so of course I had to use the bathroom at Countdown. It was not the best bathroom experience. Someone had peed all over the seat and quite a bit on the floor as well. There was toilet paper everywhere and it looked like the bathrooms weren't kept after super well, but that is the only reason that this store got 4 stars instead of 5. They have a massive selection of health foods and even better, a HUGE selection of bulk foods. One of my 2018 goals is to reduce the amount of food packaging/waste that I create, so this was an exciting day for me! Being in the center of the city, it is a busy store, and the tills were busy. I went through the self check out which was quick, and the attendant there was nice and greeting everyone. So I wouldn't expect to get in and out of here quickly unless you are going at an odd hour. The store is great and has such a great selection of bulk - I'll totally be back here next time I'm around the city center!

It was a pretty good experience, would be a five star if only the staff had treated me politely. I…read morecouldn't find the kind of bread I usually have, so when I asked a worker to check the back they just went into the back, stood there for a second and walked out! I saw them, and they didn't even TRY to help me! I'll try a different Countdown next time, hopefully they'll be better.

Quality/Quantity - Cool small supermarket, great place for snacks…read more Chip flavors were very interesting, see pictures. So many I wanted to try; it took everything in me to NOT buy one of each! Also checked out the local candies, cookies, etc. And of course the beers! Very good selection for a small format supermarket. Atmosphere - Good find. Everything I need in a supermarket/convenience store! Open 7 days a week from 7am or 9:30am to 8:30pm or 9pm. Catering available. Free wifi, I did not use it. Online shopping available. This brand is ONLY in NZ and proud of it. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable. A little on the higher side, but that is the cost for convenience. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1922 and with 300+ locations; are you a franchise, co-op business model?

This was the closest market to our hotel, and I was also thankful that they had some prepared food,…read morein addition to a wide variety of groceries. Ended up buying some mandarins, some chips, a meat pie, chicken, and water. This place is very convenient and prices are okay. On another note, I had the pleasure of watching a security guard confront a shoplifting customer which spiraled into a full blown fight. Hate to see that but I guess they got crumbs all over the world... not just in the United States. And mad credit to the security guard who showed extreme restraint until that crumb actually put hands on him.
