Store in Papamoa

“Awesome friendly & helpfull staff. Good sense of humour too”

“Friendly staff, my go to in between weekly grocery shops place. They have great selection of items, including bowls, socks, fruit and lots of frozen goods. Plus all the usual chocolates, chips and drinks.”

“First ever visit and I was not disappointed. The Sausage Roll was fresh, the pastry was crisp the filling was flavourful and filled the pastry. The Almond Croissant and the Panna Chocolate (even tho I didn't try them until I got back to Whakatane about 4hrs later) was absolutely devine. But what topped it all off was that the staff, as well as being friendly and helpful and just a breath of fresh air, actually brought everything out to the car, I have never had anyone do that for me. I am sure that locals know all this about Best anyways but they definitely deserve praise and I challenge all locals to nominate them for the 2024 Prospa Local Business Heroes because they deserve it. Keep up the amazing mahi that you girls are doing.”

“Our experience at Bella Bridesmaids was perfect! We went to try on a few dresses to get ideas of what we wanted, but we ended up choosing our dresses from there. Gorgeous selection of dresses, great prices and Nicola is brilliant, very friendly and professional. We are thrilled with our dresses! Highly highly highly recommend. X”

“Most helpful staff. I enjoyed the experience of shopping there. Buying two prs of footwear that were very suitable for the occasion It was intended.”

“Always great service and great food at reasonable prices. Called in this morning to pick up a Pastrami Beef Bagel, for my 96yr old uncle's lunch since he loves them so! I was dismayed to see none in the cabinet and asked whatever could I do so as not to disappoint him? Apparently they have been very busy and hadn't had time to make any but at the look on my face quickly offered to have two ready for pick up in 15mins. Very much appreciated and end result very happy uncle!”

“Great juices, great service. Accidentally sold me the wrong pods and coils, refunded them immediately with 0 fuss. 10/10 Will be back.”

“Friendly staff, let us know where to pick to get the best berries. Tasty berry ice creams kept the girls happy afterward!”

“scored some absolute bargains here! the guy and and girl are friendly and cheerful. lots to choose from. good stuff!”

“Ordered some Biltong and a Father's Day gift pack. it arrived on time and the biltong was perfect (not too dry and enough fat). Was nice to enjoy the South African favorites in the gift pack :)”

“Sena, the lady with the beautiful ginger hair. She makes the best expresso caramel frappes that I highly recommend! I call them heaven in cup. The food is always fresh, and delicious!”

“Great service and a very easy website to navigate and order from. Thank you Jean for the lovely gift basket and thank you for hand delivering on a weekend. It was greatly appreciated. :)”

“Fred is a problem solver. The word 'cant' is not in his vocabulary. We have thrown him some curly ones and he has always delivered. This, along with a very friendly and courteous attitude makes for an unbeatable combination. He has rebuilt 2x torque convertors and 2 complete transmissions for our Komatsu bulldozers and this was after we were told the transmissions couldnt be fixed. They are both hard at work and havnt missed a beat. Very impressed. See you next time Fred.”

“I bought a beautiful moonstone ring from Alexandra … it’s now my favourite piece of jewellery! I then decided I wanted a pair of moonstone earrings with the same setting. Alexandra was amazing … she walked me through the design process and I am ‘over the moon’ with delight at the result. What a beautiful, kind, creative, fun and talented artist … thank you so much x”

“Cool earthy/ boho asthetic here, some unique furnture, homeware and clothing/ accessories. Also beautiful fresh flower bouquets, the lady was super nice and helpful, pulled together a fresh bouquet for me really quickly.”

“Best coffee and scones! Coffee is consistently good, service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. It’s a nice spot to sit and work on your laptop because of the calm music and large windows.”

“Great service, responsive team and super quick delivery. No hassles at all, even when returning a product that wasn't quite right for my needs. Highly recommended.”

“I’m loving my ebike which gives me all the options from pure biking to no effort at all and everything in between. Now I can ride as far and as far as Michael wants to go without having to give up because my knee can’t keep up on a normal bike!!”

“Deidre is an absolute angel. There are no words to describe the service, quality and love she provides! The dress she made for me was exquisite, and she was incredible to deal with from start to finish. Deidre you are amazing!”

“We were extremely satisfied with the services provided and the charges were very reasonable.”

“Excellent staff esp the front yard guy”

“These guys are successful restaurant owners so their care and quality come through in their food and service. Unlike your average industrial sloppy pie shop, these guys have a range of healthy options, they mix it up with different daily dishes and they’ll happily customise an order to your liking if you don’t quite see what suits you. Legends!”

“Jay was recommended to install our replacement benchtops. He did a great job of the install including coordinating delivery and the electricin and plumber. One bench was particularly tricky as the existing one butted up against tiling. The whole job was completed in a day with all the original tiles intact. We would highly recommend Jay.”

“A very hard working bunch of people working for Vivid! Countless hours go into their line of work and they still manage to have huge smiles on their faces. Great people, doing great work for the event industry.”

“This is such a brilliant shop. Well stocked with a wide variety of products plus an awesome Kiwiana gift section. I have often nipped in for incense or the odd bit for a project and it has always been a pleasant experience. The woman who runs Allsortz is a gem. She is so sweet and kind and always happy to help :)”
