Always clean and staff great. Lots of things missing off shelves but that's not their fault I guess. Sadly Cafe was shut when I went to get coffee on way out but never mind.
Very affordable food, very accommodating with our children. Lovely seating area for our extended family to sit. Clean and tidy. Food was hot as appropriate. Kids ice creams were a good size.
Prices are not as cheap as Paknsave but is much cleaner. They don't have Super Gold Card Tuesday's like Onekawa New World do which is a bit disappointing.Only go there to buy their cakes
It's a funny store. It's expensive, but then they have several items that can't be found elsewhere in Hawke's Bay. Yet, the variety is still quite limited. It seems like they should have more international options. It's probably the best place for holiday food shopping in the Bay.
Nice friendly staff even with all the plastic shields around.
Good service. Professional attitude. Very nice people in general (and nearly all youngsters as well 😀).
The Florian Cafe does do a really good potato top pie.
Just stopped by for some instant coffee. All good.
Just stopped in on the way home and met an old workmate I have not seen for nearly 15 years. Had a little gossip and then headed home 😁.
... and the Pepper Steak and Blue Cheese pie is the best ...
The staff are very good and are handling the new "no single use plastic bags" rules as well as can be expected. All loose vegetable and fruit purchases are now in brown paper bags, so the till operator now has to open each bag to identify the item, place it on the scales to calculate the cost and reclose the bag, instead of being able to identify the item in a see-through plastic bag. All in, this must increase the customer time at the till and cause a reduction in efficiency. (Just a small rant 🙃).
30sep2023 - Delightful young cashier and (slightly older) lady packing my bag were very professional and courteous during my short purchasing exercise today.
Clean, neat tidy. Staff are ok. The place is very pretty and looks better then pakinsave. However prices are not cheap. Only shop here if you have too.
