“JUNE 2025 - new management I've lived close by for years but it has only recently become one of my favorite shops in the area! This place is under new management and they have put a lot of effort into making it a great little shop. It has come a long way in a short amount of time and I really hope they get the customer support need. They have an excellent selection super fresh produce, frozen and pantry food, must have basics and exotic food from around the globe. Thanks :)”

“I visited Columbia mart in November when I was visiting family in Auckland. I am.bit one to write many reviews... But I have to say that it is a fantastic convenience store that truly lives up to its name. It offers a wide selection of everyday essentials, snacks, and beverages, making it a go-to spot for both locals and visitors. What hit me the most and inspired me to write this review was the staff who were very very friendly and helpful, ensuring a truly pleasant experience. Open until midnight, the store is perfect for late-night cravings :).. ..”

“The new customer services team, Chris in particular is outstandingly customer focussed. I have been a loyal customer for years but apart from the owners who will obviously be customer driven they have had a mixedbag of counter staff, leaving a bit to be desired. Good job in hiring the latest Filipino talent! They know how to delight a customer.”

“Pak’nSave Ormiston is one of the newer stores around, and you can definitely tell. It feels a lot cleaner and more modern compared to the older Pak’nSave branches. The layout is spacious, the lighting is bright, and everything’s a bit more organised. It’s still got that classic Pak’nSave warehouse vibe, but it’s a lot more pleasant to shop in. The prices are what you’d expect — some of the cheapest around. If you’re doing a big shop or trying to save a bit each week, it’s a solid option. They have all the basics, and the weekly specials are usually pretty good. The fresh produce section is generally decent. Most of the fruit and veg look fresh, although just like any supermarket, sometimes you’ll come across stuff that’s seen better days. The meat section is well-stocked and usually good value. The bakery has a nice variety too, with heaps of buns, rolls, and breads ready to grab. Staff at Ormiston seem friendlier than at some other branches. If you ask for help, they’re usually happy to assist, and you’ll spot a few walking around the aisles if you need anything. Self-checkouts are there if you’re in a rush, but even the manned checkouts move at a good pace most of the time. Parking is probably one of the best parts. Since it’s in the Ormiston Town Centre area, you get a big parking lot with easy access. It doesn’t feel as chaotic as some other locations, which makes the whole trip a bit less stressful. The area around the store is nice too — you’ve got other shops, cafés, and places to stop in if you want to make it more of an outing. One thing to note though, just like other Pak’nSave stores, some items shown online might not always be available in-store. So if you’re planning your shop based on what you see on the website, maybe don’t expect everything to be there when you arrive. Overall, Pak’nSave Ormiston is a pretty good spot to do your shopping. It’s clean, newer, and has a good range of products at great prices. You still get the budget-friendly experience Pak’nSave is known for, just with a slightly nicer atmosphere than the older stores.”

“Been coming to the store quite frequently - as well as my co-workers. It's my go-to spot for all things Korean. The store has an incredible variety of products. Staff are accommodating, friendly, and kind. Laughs with them too sometimes! Plus, they give me knowledge about the foods I'm curious about - makes it easier for me to decide, considering the variety. The store is clean, well-organized, and a joy to shop in.”

“It has different departments in-store that you need to pay in the department. It has great range of korean products and I normally buy korean bbq marinate sauce from there.”
