This dairy operates somewhere in the middle of that No Man's Land between the Balmoral Dominion Road shops and the Mt. Roskill Dominion Road shops. If you find yourself halfway between the two and in desperate need of an ice block, this is probably where you'll go.
It's a pretty good dairy, as far as dairies go. It definitely leans towards snacks rather than household necessities but I'm fine with that as I've only ever come here wanting snacks. They probably have newspapers and beans and furniture polish tucked away somewhere like other dairies, but I've never looked. Their prices are what you'd expect for a dairy.
What makes this place good, as opposed to average, is that the guy behind the counter is friendly - not overly so, but just a touch more than polite. It's this warmness that makes it appealing to come here, and he's never made me feel bad that I'm only ever there for chips and lollies. read more
