What a treasure this store is. The emphasis is on local and small manufacturers. A real step back in time to when service with a smile was real and mattered.
I'm very impressed with the deli food and the variety of products available.
Located in the iconic Hammond & Wheatley building in the main street of Bellingen. This street is also part of the Waterfall Way linking the Mid North Coast to the Tablelands eg Armidale.The IGA looks like it is at home in this building.The IGA being independently owned should be supported over the mega chains and fortunately for Bellingen they have no Coles or Woolworths.The store has a good variety of household foods as well as fresh fruit & vegetables. Fresh baked bread and other bakery lines are found in store.They also have a fresh meat section.Being part of the IGA franchise they benefit from weekly specials that ate often 40-50% discounted.The store also abides by the fresh or 200% guarantee.They employ a number of locals which to is important to any smaller town.They have at my last visit resisted the already proven disaster of installing self service registers that promote dishonestly in an already fragile society as well as leading to the sacking of staff.One only has to look at IGA at Nambucca to see how these self service registers have lead to loss of employees, poorer customer service experience and often they are not working or put out of service due to a higher level of shop lifting.Parking can be an issue but Bellingen is a relaxed town so if parking is an issue find a park elsewhere and enjoy the sights as you stroll along Hyde St or visit the cafe street just around the corner from IGA.
They stock a large range of "alternate foods". The Fruit and Vegetables are always of a very high freshness and quality. The staff are friendly and down to earth. All in all I can definitely say that this supermarket is of a high standard across the board.
Took our visitors to Bellingen . Lovely coffee shops. Went into the magnificent store of Hammond and Wheatley and everything was just beautiful. Did a little shop in IGA . The check out girl was very friendly. Had a lovely morning
