Countdown Metro Auckland Victoria Street West

"As a grocery store, this countdown is fine. Unfortunately this countdown is a target for the homeless, and I feel like 50% of the time I’m shopping there, I see people stealing food and dashing out the door. I watched a disturbed woman pushing people around in the store, myself included, and mumbling and yelling. As she approached check out area, she throws a cup of what looked like a milkshake to the security guy. Instead of the security guy, taking down this woman who had been assaulting customers, he stands there, shocked, while the woman continues to yell at him and opens a coke bottle and start spraying him down with it. I don’t see much usefulness in the security guard at the store since they never seem to catch these people, nor make the other customers shopping experience, safe and comfortable."

"I have came there with my family every Saturday for our grocery shopping since it was our only option as we have came recently to nz and there was a lady her name was Tasneem who always helped us and was very patient with us and my family and would recommend us better products for better prices since we don't know much, so thankful for her."

"I would like to thank the young man that was working at the self checkouts at around 6pm on the 14th. I had recently messed up and pressed no being to 16 for an energy drink. He quickly came over and verified that that was wrong and corrected it. Thank you sir, I hope to see you every time I come to shop here! EDIT: I have just found out his name is Flynn. Good work Flynn!"

"Good for an inner city supermarket but doesn't have everything you would expect in a standard Countdown. Lack of trolleys or proper checkouts also means it's difficult to do a big shop. It's like the supermarkets haven't quite caught up to the fact that people actually live in the city centre."

"Central location, but big selection and quite clean/roomy, what more do you need. Easy as is"
