Daffodil Dairy is a dairy, listed as a supermarket, at 7 Tauranga Rd, Waihi, in the Hauraki district, with a Google rating of 4.4.
A dairy is New Zealand's name for a local corner shop, handy for milk, bread, drinks, snacks and last-minute items. A good dairy keeps a tidy shop, stocks everyday basics at fair prices and knows its regulars. Waihi is a small town on the way between the Coromandel, Waikato and Bay of Plenty, so local shops serve both residents and visitors heading to the beach, the gold mine or the Karangahake Gorge, and are handy for supplies. Convenience prices are often higher than at a supermarket, so compare prices for bigger shops, check use-by dates and bring cash or a card, since some small shops have limits on payment types. Opening hours can vary on weekends and holidays, so check before a special trip. Regulars pick up milk, bread and newspapers close to home and chat to the owners.
For people in Waihi and the Hauraki district, Daffodil Dairy on Tauranga Road is a handy local shop for everyday items.
