Grace Dairy is a neighbourhood dairy on Queen Street in Lower Hutt, and it holds a perfect five-star rating from its first Google reviewer.
A good dairy earns its keep on the forgotten things: the milk that ran out overnight, bread for school lunches, butter, eggs, a cold drink on the walk home. The best ones are owner-operated and know their regulars by name, and they often keep hours the big supermarkets can't match. Locals judge a dairy quickly — how fresh the milk is, whether the chiller is doing its job, how fast you're back out the door. A handy one on the main street saves the whole trip across town for a bottle of milk and a packet of biscuits.
On Queen Street in the middle of Lower Hutt, Grace Dairy is there for exactly those small, sudden needs.
