Northland continental Grocers

I shop here because they sell Fresha Valley Full Cream Milk. It's the best tasting milk by far. It comes from Waipu so it's local and it always tastes like it came straight from the farm. The best thing is it's cheaper than the supermarket. You can buy two 2 litre bottles for $7.98 I'm obsessed with making Marsala Chai. It's so aromatic and fragrant. I come here to get authentic black Indian Tea and they also have an extensive range of spices. It is so rewarding and satisfying grinding and blending your own spices to your own desired taste and preference. Marsala Chai has a complex and decadent flavour profile and is sold in India by street vendors. They stock a wide range of groceries from around the world, fresh fruit and vegetables, chilled and frozen foods. They also have a stall with Indian street food and a juice bar outside for a quick snack and drink. The store is conveniently situated close to town on Maunu Road. Parking is limited but you can drive up by the door or alternatively park on the street.

Amazing place. They have spices, Asian food, frozen, fresh, South African products, friendly staff, good prices, free parking 😁

I had a really disappointing experience here. I went into to do my shopping for the first time and had my phone out to go through my list. One of the staff (male, short) yelled at me and screamed at me for having my phone out. When I explained I was looking at my notes he accused me of taking photos. So weird and bizarre.

No longer sells vegetables in large variety like they used to. Still a good store for herbs n spices

Great prices and variety you can’t get at supermarkets.
