Willis Street Superette is a neighbourhood dairy at 219 Willis Street in Te Aro, central Wellington, and holds a 4.6-star rating on Google.
A dairy is the corner shop New Zealand runs on — milk and bread picked up on the way home, an ice block on a hot afternoon, and the odds and ends that don't justify a trip to the supermarket. Most dairies are independently owned, so stock varies from shop to shop, and it pays to learn what your local keeps in. Regulars tend to judge a dairy less on price than on proximity and reliability: it is the place that saves dinner when a recipe is missing one ingredient, or breakfast when the loaf has run out. The good ones restock often and keep the basics in steady supply.
For the flats and workplaces of Te Aro, having a well-rated superette on Willis Street is exactly the kind of convenience a corner dairy is there for.
