Baby food store in Auckland

“I recently moved into the neighbourhood and decided to explore the bakery section. They have delicious pastries, ranging from savoury to sweet, and I even bought a cake for my dad's birthday. I wasn't expecting much, but it really exceeded my expectations! The staff are lovely and very helpful, plus there's plenty of parking available.”

“We were looking for a toy that had sold out. The staff were very helpful to track down another toy world store that had stock and provided us with the contact detials and procedure to do a special phone order. Thanks!”

“Nice store good varieties great service”

“Great for bargain hunters. I always end up buying something I don't need. Staff are really friendly. They seems to sell alot of everything. Great little shop.”

“The manager Teegan is amazing. She was fantastic with helping my little one pick out her outfits. Wonderful shopping experience”

“The asian lady that served me was wonderful. A great deal and she made it even better. Sleeping bag and bed.”

“Great selection for all types and check out their specials. Staff very obliging. Fitting room, good access and parking.”

“A first time visit. I couldn't find two or three items. One of the staff went with me, took the items from the shelves and into my trolley. Asked if I needed something else. I had done my shopping, so thanked him. I liked the place so much, I bought a few extras.”

“Pak’nSave Silverdale is a well-sized, tidy store that serves the wider Hibiscus Coast area and does a solid job of it. It’s not flashy or overly modern, but it’s practical and clean, with that familiar warehouse-style layout that Pak’nSave is known for. If you’re after low prices without the bells and whistles, it ticks the right boxes. The store is spacious and easy to navigate, even during busier times. Aisles are wide, shelves are usually well-stocked, and signage is clear enough to help you find what you need without wandering too much. The overall vibe is no-frills, but things generally run smoothly and efficiently. Prices are sharp across the board — groceries, meat, produce, and household items all come in at the lower end, especially if you keep an eye out for specials. The fruit and veg section can be a bit hit or miss depending on the day you visit, but most of the time it’s decent. The meat section usually has a good range at affordable prices, and the bakery offers the basics like bread, rolls, and a few sweet treats. Staff are usually around if you need help, but it’s a typical Pak’nSave setup — more of a DIY experience. Most people are just in and out, focused on the shop, so don’t expect high-touch service. That said, checkout lines move fairly quickly and self-service options help if you’re only picking up a few things. The carpark is decent with a fair amount of space, though it can get full during peak shopping times, especially weekends. The location is handy too, close to other shops in the area, so it’s easy to tick off errands in one go. As with other Pak’nSaves, the online listings don’t always match what’s in-store, so it’s best to go in with a flexible list rather than expecting everything to be there. Overall, Pak’nSave Silverdale is a dependable local spot. It’s not fancy, but it’s clean, roomy, and delivers on what really matters — saving money. If you’re in the area and want to stock up without spending too much, it’s worth the stop.”

“I love this store. Very clean, tidy shelving, easy to find items. The isles are quite wide for a small store, so no one bumps into each other. Produce is fresh. Meat selection is good. It has this really calming feel for simmering so stressful for me as grocery shopping.”

“Pak’nSave Albany is one of the bigger branches on the North Shore, and it definitely shows. The store is spacious, fairly modern, and usually well-stocked, making it a popular choice for families and bulk shoppers. It keeps to the classic Pak’nSave model — low prices, minimal decor, and a focus on practicality over presentation — but the Albany location feels a bit more polished than some of the older ones. The layout is easy to follow, with wide aisles and clear signage, so you’re not bumping trolleys every few seconds. The shelves are usually full, especially earlier in the day, and there’s a decent range of both budget brands and the more well-known labels. Prices are, as expected, very competitive. You’ll find good specials across most departments, and if you’re shopping for a big household, it’s one of the better options to keep costs down. The fresh produce section is generally reliable. Some days the quality is top notch, other times it’s more average — pretty normal for Pak’nSave. The meat section offers good value and a decent selection, and the bakery is basic but has all the essentials. There’s also a reasonable selection of international foods, which reflects the local community well. Staff are usually friendly enough, though it’s mostly a self-service experience unless you go looking for help. Checkout times are fairly efficient, with a good number of lanes open during busy periods and a decent set of self-service checkouts for smaller shops. The carpark is big, but it does fill up, especially on weekends. That said, it’s well laid out and doesn’t feel like a fight to find a spot, even when it’s busy. Being close to other stores and amenities makes it easy to combine errands in one trip. One thing to note, like at other Pak’nSaves, is that what’s advertised online might not always match what’s in store, so it’s worth shopping with a bit of flexibility. All up, Pak’nSave Albany is a good choice if you want decent prices, a clean store, and enough space to do a full shop without feeling crammed in. It’s practical, reliable, and does exactly what you’d expect — no frills, just solid savings.”

“I absolutely loved your Portuguese tarts — they were the best! I’ve been looking for them lately but can’t seem to find them. Where have they gone? Hope to see them back soon!”

“Staff are super friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. In store butcher is one of the best around, parking can be a bit hectic at times but they're truly a part of the Birkenhead and wider North Shore community.”

“Good quality food with really friendly services. Good store size. Heaps of parking and right by the motorway exit. Good values too when on specials. Recommending a visit if you have been.”

“A really lovely young man on the checkout today. He's always so pleasant and friendly. Beautiful smile. A pleasure to see a young person who can engage in conversation and provide quality customer service...the pies are good too.”

“Handy shop stocked with pretty well most everything. Lovely Indian owners. Lotto onsite. Carparking right outside. Train Station across the road, public Conveniences also on roadside.”

“Raced into Farmers (Nor west) to update my foundation. However I had my product wrong name. Any other assistance could have said- no, we don't have that, but Mina (beautiful Persian woman) went the extra mile to find out what I actually wanted, and sourced the product from another counter. Her gracious manner throughout, reminded me that purchases for myself deserve to be less hurried and to enjoy taking time for me.”

“The mall features a wide selection of skincare brands, including Farmers, MAC, Lancôme, Estée Lauder, The Ordinary, and more. Currently, there’s a significant discount event happening, which offers great value. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, making it easy to find the perfect products.”

“This is a really great store. The staff are lovely and they have so much variety from organic spices to charcoal toothpaste and everything in between. They have lots of bin products of course so you can refill your own containers. I like trying new products every time I go there - this time it was vanilla bean paste which I'm having in my porridge. Yum! They stock lots of natural health products like the zero waste, plastic free Go Bamboo cotton buds. So it's a great store if you're looking to make more conscious choices for yourself and the earth. I just refilled my empty vinegar bottle and will do the same with my ecostore shampoo etc once they are empty. Check it out :)”

“This is my favourite shop in Auckland... They have an extensive range of organic and natural products, including fresh produce, all pantry products, and supplements and skin/ hair care etc. I love that this shop is also independently owned. Highly recommended!”

“Best Pak n Save branch I've been too. Their bakery is excellent offering fresh cream doughnuts, Leamingtons etc that many other branches are limited on. Also some exclusive bargains here, not available at other stores and a 10 cent discount fuel voucher instead of the usual 6 cents. Well done!”

“It's a lot bigger than it looks like from the outside. The grill in front of the door makes it look like it's shut, but it is actually open. It has a big meat selection at very reasonable prices. Alongside the meat fridges you'll find very cheap and fresh veggies. I bought some beautiful crunchy capsicums for only 70c and a whole bag of eggplants for just $5. Beyond that are some pantry and freezer items. It's a big selection of interesting and different Asian products. It's well worth a visit!”

“One of the last supermarkets in Auckland who actually still provide customer care and service. The range is good the store is clean, however you will find this in most supermarkets. The staff are awesome, friendly helpful and polite. Even the guy picking up the trolleys was friendly you just dont get this anymore well done to everyone great team really A++++”

“Reduced to clear were amazing. Like a lot of people I'd been searching for the BEGA brand cheese slices, in particular Super thin slices. 65% less fat. I've been making sausage in Filo with cheese slice on the top for over 20 years, my kids loved them. Now my Grandchildren do too. Supermarkets arn't importing them anymore from Australia. This lovely Lady, The Manager. Was wonderful, it's a first in policy, I got the carton with 32 packets. She has kindly received another 6 cartons. Go buy as many as you need”

“Very big super store and also very well organized,”

“Always friendly and great service. Your one stop shop for most needs. Been going here in the past 23 years.”

“This is my local supermarket and I always have a great experience when shopping here. The store is clean and well-organized and the staff are always friendly. Highly recommend if you're looking for quality and convenience in one place!”

“Very big store with lots of varieties. Covered car park is a huge bonus especially at hot summer afternoon.”

“I've been massively impressed by the cleanliness of this place that offers the freshest fruit and vegetables as well as meat and diary products. All things are beautifully displayed. And prices don't disappoint either. Also, if you like peace and quiet while shopping, this is the place to go to.”

“A very neat and clean New World supermarket around Victoria park. Has all the daily groceries you need. Totally loved shopping experience.”
