Fish of the best day with potatoes lotions etc
Zee S.

Great smoothie and food, the fish dish was awesome, with a lovely broth that we slurped up..... With a spoon of course Great location Cool vibe and pretty flowers on site to buy. Will definatly be visiting again with friends

Great little tapas bar/florist combo. Facing the afternoon sun, it's a perfect spot to catch up with friends at the end of the day. There's no table service, so head inside and order drinks at the bar. Small menu of tapas-style food including 'Breville toasties', which I can only imagine is a toastie sandwich made in a Breville sandwich maker? Never mind, will order one next time. Liked the lush vertical gardens and floral displays. Put this on the list for easy after work drinks or lazy Sunday afternoons.

Davina and the team at Vida Flores is fantastic for Special Event flowers - adding that special…read moresomething without costing an arm and a leg. I used Vida Flores to do some statement "pieces" for a recent party and got a lot of comments and requests for "who had done the flowers". A very large amethyst vase/hurricane lamp from Ambiance was filled with Stocks in shades of purple and mauve, a bowl of pale mauve roses and another of Icelandic poppies were among the standout pieces. I have seen some other functions that Davina has done the flowers for and am always amazed at the creativity and the result. I would definitely recommend using Vida Flores for an event or when you want to "say it with flowers"!!

Vida Flores recently did the flowers for my mum's birthday soiree we had at home. The lovely owner,…read moreDavina personally came over the day before the event and whipped up the bouquets onsite - which, considering we live on a the shore, would have been a bit of a trek. I couldn't believe: a) how quickly she whipped up each arrangement b) how easy she made it look c) how stunning the final result was (see pictures) This will definitely be my first port of call next time i'm in the market for flowers! Oh, and apparently they also have a 'flower school' where you can learn how to make gorgeous DIY arrangements at home. Count me in!

This is the best superette by far. A super superette in fact. The flowers out the front really grab…read moreyour eye and if you didn't think that about 5 meters of flowers displayed out the front was enough, there are more inside, a florist down the back of the store actually and it puts a lot of stand alone florists to shame and it is inside what I would describe as a gourmet mini market and frutier. I absolutely love it here, such a range of wonderful international foods, brands that you would find in the deli section of New World or in a Nosh store. They also stock fresh breads from Wild Wheat on Mt Eden Road, which is very good bread and all the ingredients you would need to make a meal to impress. Additionally there is a wonderful range of chilled product, gourmet frozen yoghurts, sorbet and ice creams and more for the sweet tooth, New Zealand chocolates and Turkish Delight actually form Turkey. A fantastic place to come and stock up on some less than ordinary foods but if I lived in the area, I'd be a frequent customer for sure. Unbelievable prices on the flowers too and so many varieties to choose from, an amazing place and very friendly are the people who own it.

Bhana Brothers is pretty much one of the nicest fruit shops/superettes I've ever been to. The fruit…read moreand vegetables are always lined up perfectly and the flowers out the front are really enticing. They stock upmarket ice-cream and pasta brands and good cheeses as well. It's like a cross between Nosh and your dairy for sure. Like a really fancy dairy. The prices are pretty 'Ponsonby' if you know what I mean, but I mean, the location is great and I've always had good service, so if you don't mind paying a little extra, go for it. Definitely good place to head to if you're looking for some special groceries.
