When I was working on Queen Street I always came here for fresh fruit salads, fruit, raw nuts and drinks. It is like a hybrid of a grocer, dairy and a fruit store. You can even buy beer and wine here. These guys also had Marmite in stock long after it had left the shelves of supermarkets so I kept it to myself and came here for my Marmite fix. Absolutely the best convenience store in the CBD without a doubt. They even have a shoe shine machine!

But just because something is one of many other options doesn't mean it can't stand out head and shoulders above the rest. Star Convenience is one of these things - from the outside, a bland run of the mill chain convenience store. But they have a difference. You can get 5 naan breads for 1.90 here. You can use these for anything- pizzas, herb bread, you rule the roost on this one. If you live in the area, head on up to Star Convenience for a cheap feed.

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?

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.

The fast food from here is quick and tasty - just the way it should be! My favourite is the hawaiian burger and the kumera fries! Most of the food is pretty affordable too which is always a bonus!

Albany Superette is a family-owned and run shop and no matter which one of them is on duty they all says hi and smile and laugh and chat as though its going out of fashion. Oh and they play classical music all the time! Kind of strange but a quirky touch - I quite like it. There's a bakery, a chemist, a cafe and an ATM all in the same complex so its a handy stop and right on Rosedale road too. Its a bit crammed but hey what Superette isn't.

Well supervalue supermarkets are a gift from above. They are usually in a suburb ready to sell the basics such as bread, veges and the extras. It is a big dairy but a small supermarket. The prices are a bit high but from time to time they are sales on the bikkies and other products. It is a local place so the staff start to know you and they are all super friendly and helpful.

The Four Square in Matakana is a fantastic store to pop into for convenience when in Matakana town. I was happy to grab my toddler some organic baby food and snacks as we headed for the beach nearby. Honestly you name it; Four Square will have it for sale. Styled as a mini supermarket with everything you would need for the weekend at the bach or a picnic at the beach. They also sell Wine, Champagne, Beer and Cider for the get together BBQ your heading to. If you are feeling like you could strike it rich, they are also Lotto merchants so you're in luck. Outside the attractive display of fruit and vegetables are pleasing to my eye, and I thought the fun Matakana Four Square T shirt for sale here was fun and original.

We got a few of the items from the counter and I'd say it was okay in terms of quality, but service was fairly disinterested.

My veggie and Camembert toasty was very slim on fillings, especially for $9.50, but quite tasty nonetheless. the spinach and ricotta tort ($6.50/slice) was very tasty though, and we got apples and kombucha to round out the meal.
