Skinny Haitaitai Dairy is a neighbourhood dairy at 2 Moxham Ave in Mount Victoria, Wellington, holding a solid 4.2 rating from 13 reviews. Dairies are a fixture of New Zealand street life: the place to turn for a forgotten carton of milk, a paper, an ice cream on a hot afternoon, or something quick on the walk home from the bus. A good one keeps its shelves fresh and well stocked, its prices fair, and its counter friendly enough that regulars stop for a chat. Locals soon learn which dairies restock bread and milk early, which keep the drinks properly cold in summer, and which have the snack range school kids approve of — those small things are what earn loyalty on a street. For everyday top-ups within a short walk of home, this Mount Victoria corner dairy is the local option.
