Children clothing store in Auckland

“Pak’nSave Sylvia Park is one of the better options if you’re after cheap groceries but still want a cleaner, more modern shopping experience. Being located right next to the Sylvia Park shopping centre gives it a bit of an edge — it feels a little more polished than some of the older Pak’nSaves around Auckland, and the vibe is a bit less hectic, at least during off-peak hours. The store itself is fairly new, well-lit, and spacious. Aisles are wide enough to get through without having to constantly dodge other trolleys, and the layout makes sense. It’s still got that classic Pak’nSave look — plain, functional, no fancy extras — but it’s more pleasant to walk around than somewhere like Papakura or Royal Oak. Prices are solid. You’ll find all the usual weekly deals and budget-friendly bulk items. If you’re planning a big shop or trying to save a bit each week, this place delivers. The produce section is usually well-stocked and fresher than average. Same goes for the meat department — good variety, and the quality seems to be a bit more consistent here compared to other branches. The bakery has your standard breads and rolls, nothing gourmet, but decent for everyday needs. Staff are generally helpful. They’re not going to chase you down to offer assistance, but if you ask someone, they’ll usually point you in the right direction or find what you need. Checkout times can vary — self-service is available and useful for smaller shops, while the manned checkouts are hit-or-miss depending on the time of day. Parking is actually pretty good since it shares space with Sylvia Park Mall. There’s heaps of it, and it’s not as chaotic as some other Pak’nSave carparks. That said, it can get busy during peak shopping hours or weekends, especially when the mall is packed, but it’s manageable and definitely better than the tight squeeze at places like Royal Oak. One minor issue is that, like with other Pak’nSaves, not everything listed online matches what’s available in-store. So if you’re going in for something specific you saw on the website, be prepared for it to be out of stock or just not stocked at this location. All up, Pak’nSave Sylvia Park strikes a pretty good balance — you get the low prices and variety that Pak’nSave is known for, but with a cleaner, more organised store layout and a bit less stress. It’s a solid option if you’re in the area and don’t mind skipping the frills to get the savings.”

“Love this gym . The instructors know what they are doing and are super keen to help if needed . The equipment range is slowly getting better too . It’s definitely an older persons gym , I would say majority are 40 plus . But all the members are respectful with the equipment, wipe everything down and put things away . There are lots of fantastic classes as well.”

Very positive, patient and good attitude - and not rushed even though it was busy! Saw him going up to others also, not just pick and choose customers. So good!”

“Awesome team down here! I’ve been here multiple times, I would especially like to say thanks to Natasha! My wife bought our newborn in as we had a few issues with our current capsule (son not happy in it). Natasha spent quite a long time helping my wife find a capsule more suited to our boy, even through his tantrums. Again thank you to the team and we will see you again soon!”

A real gem of a person – thank you, Cameron!”

“Kati the lovely Canadian (who I haven't even met in person) went the extra mile and beyond for me while I am stuck here in Quarantine in an Auckland hotel.

Kati you are a true legend with exceptional customer service!! Thanks again :))”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I had an excellent experience with Shaveta at Farmers LynnMall. She was extremely friendly, professional, and very helpful. She guided me patiently, answered all my questions, and made sure I found exactly what I needed. Her customer service was outstanding, and I truly appreciate her support. Highly recommend her!””

“March 2023 Still a very clean and tidy shop. Product range very well displayed and staff very pleasant to deal with. Will continue to shop here. Dec 2022 Have been here several times in recent years. A very clean shop with all stock very well displayed.”

“Good value and very friendly staff, but during busy hours there may be a bit of wait to get served. Handy location with ample parking. Look out for specials and this is a good place/alternative for kids shoes especially. They also have decent goods return policy. Why pay twice as much if you are buying shoes that you are not gonna be wearing everyday as most shoes in NZL are made in China or other SE Asian nations. Recommending a visit to the store next time you are in the area and grab a bargain.”
