Woolworths Metro Albert Street

Woolworths Metro Albert Street, situated in the AMP Centre on Lower Albert Street in Auckland’s CBD, offers a modern and convenient supermarket experience tailored to busy city workers and residents. Open from 6 am to 7 pm on weekdays and from 8 am on weekends, the store caters to early risers and lunchtime shoppers with a well-curated selection of grab-and-go options like fresh salads, gourmet sandwiches, barista-made coffee, and kombucha on tap. The compact store is sleek and well-organised, with self-checkout kiosks and polished product displays that make quick shopping trips efficient and pleasant. While it doesn’t offer the same depth of range as full-sized supermarkets, the essentials are there, and the quality of ready-made meals and fresh produce often receives praise. Customers frequently commend the friendly and efficient staff, noting that it’s an ideal stop for lunch or top-up groceries during a busy day in the city. However, prices are typically higher than in suburban Woolworths stores, which is expected given the prime location and smaller footprint. Some shoppers also report limited stock at times and occasional concerns about security due to visible shoplifting incidents, though these issues don’t appear to detract significantly from the overall experience. For those living or working in Auckland’s city centre, Woolworths Metro Albert Street is a practical and polished solution for quick, quality grocery shopping with a touch of convenience and urban style.

This shop in Auckland CBD is convenient, offering a great selection of bakery items as well as meals like curry chicken, sandwiches, sushi, and salads. It’s my go-to spot for lunch when I need something quick. The store is always clean and well-presented, with a nice variety of products. While the prices can be a bit higher compared to other stores, they often have discounted items that add extra value. I have noticed that occasionally some products are out of stock.

Spacious new supermarket. Not as big as the one on Victoria Street but still has a range of items. Everything was very well presented. There are plenty of self checkouts. Since it's new and there is a lot of construction outside, it was very quiet and quick to get around.

As a nearby merchant, I always come here because it’s close. But the staff is very unfriendly, especially today a Japanese staff. She is so rude. I was looking for a bottle opener because of work use, when I tried to ask for help, she said we don’t have that, who uses a bottle opener nowadays? No one uses it. And she kept telling this to her workmates. Seems like I was the one shouldn’t ask. The star is for the security guard, because he is the only staff member who is patient.

How convenient. Was very thirsty but didn't have enough cash to purchase a $5 bottle from the convenience store. No problem. Come to Woolworths to buy affordable products in the heart of the city.
