Maclean Street Store is a dairy at 42 MacLean Street in Wallaceville, Upper Hutt, with a 3.5 Google rating.
In New Zealand, a dairy is a corner shop selling everyday essentials such as milk, bread, snacks, drinks, ice cream and newspapers, and often hot food. It is a handy neighbourhood stop for items you have run out of, particularly outside supermarket hours or when you do not want to drive far. Prices are often a little higher than at a supermarket, so a dairy suits top-up shopping more than the weekly shop. Check best-before dates on chilled goods, ask whether cards are accepted and look at what is stocked locally, since many dairies will order in a regular item on request. A middling rating is worth reading behind, so look at recent comments for how the shop is kept. Regulars pop in for milk or bread on the way home and keep a little cash for small purchases.
MacLean Street is in Wallaceville, so this shop suits nearby residents wanting a convenient stop for basics.
