FreshChoice Roslyn is the neighbourhood supermarket on Highgate, serving the hill suburb of Roslyn in Dunedin from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm, every day of the week. True to the FreshChoice promise of Where Fresh Meets Local, the store pairs a full grocery range with genuine fresh-food departments: an in-store butchery, a bakehouse, produce, a deli-kitchen, seafood, and dairy and eggs.
The range is broad enough for a complete weekly shop. Alongside the fresh departments you'll find groceries, frozen foods, drinks, snacks and confectionery, plus household, baby and pet lines, health and beauty, supplements, bulk foods, magazines and newspapers, flowers and gifts, and general merchandise. A liquor licence means beer and wine are part of the run too.
The butchery is a point of pride, with more than 270 meat lines covering poultry, beef, lamb, pork, game, organic meat, sausages and smallgoods — from everyday chicken drumsticks and beef mince to lamb shoulder chops, crumbed schnitzels and premium scotch fillet. Can't make it in? The whole store is shoppable online, with delivery and pickup options at checkout.

"Where Fresh Meets Local" is more than a tagline at FreshChoice Roslyn — it's shorthand for what this hillside supermarket has built its reputation on. Sitting on Highgate at the top of Roslyn, one of Dunedin's most characterful suburbs, the store serves a steady flow of locals who pop in for a single ingredient, do a full weekly shop, or order the entire trolley online. The doors open at 7:00 am and stay open until 9:00 pm, every single day of the week, making it one of the most reliably convenient shopping options in the neighbourhood.
The range at FreshChoice Roslyn is genuinely broad. Fresh food leads the way — fruit and vegetables, an in-store butchery, a bakehouse, a deli-kitchen, seafood, and dairy and eggs — but the aisles behind them cover a complete weekly shop: groceries, frozen foods, drinks, snacks and confectionery, plus a seasonal section that changes with the calendar.
Beyond food, the store carries household essentials, baby and pet lines, health and beauty products, supplements, magazines and newspapers, general merchandise, bulk foods, and a flowers and gifts section for last-minute bouquets. With a liquor licence on the premises, beer and wine sit alongside the grocery run too.
If one department defines a FreshChoice store, it's the butchery, and Roslyn's is no exception. The meat range runs deep — poultry, beef, lamb, pork, game, organic meat, offal and bones, burgers and rissoles, sausages and smallgoods — with more than 270 meat lines browseable online before you even set foot in the store.
Everyday staples are all here: chicken drumsticks, skinless breast fillets, tenderloins and beef mince by the kilo. For the weekend there are lamb shoulder chops, crumbed beef schnitzels and premium scotch fillet steak. The smallgoods shelves carry Hellers sausages in cheese and bacon, Angus beef and venison varieties, plus Angus beef meatballs and Campbells bacon. There are even mutton dog bones for the family pet.
Alongside the meat, the store's bakehouse turns out fresh bread and baked goods, while the deli-kitchen covers cheeses, smallgoods and ready-to-eat options for lunches and easy dinners. The seafood department, dairy wall and produce displays round out the fresh offering — the cheese selection even gets its own billing among the store's featured departments.
FreshChoice Roslyn runs a full online store, which is a genuine time-saver for busy households. You can browse every department, build a trolley, then choose delivery or pickup at checkout. A delivery and pickup timetable on the store's website sets out the available windows, and account features like My Last Order, My Frequent Purchases and Shopping Lists make repeat orders fast.
Regular shoppers can keep an eye on the Specials page and the Latest Mailer, which collect the store's current deals in one place, with seasonal promotions running throughout the year. The Home Rewards programme and the store's mailing list keep regulars in the loop, and FreshChoice shares news through its national Facebook and Instagram channels.
