Mercato

Our philosophy is simple - Provide the best quality food.

A family business with 40 years of experience. Our store stocks a huge selection of cheeses and antipasto; a wide range of oils and vinegars; a sumptuous selection of imported biscuits, chocolates and torrone; and an assortment of organic foods. Our Bar provides fresh breakfasts and lunches, cakes, pastries and sweets with wine and coffee.

There's also plenty of fabulous kitchenware to accompany your food selection. We can provide a platter of the very best cheeses and antipasto for all your entertainment needs. You can also choose from an exciting selection of lavish hampers perfectly suited for any occasion.

The expansion in 2005 has resulted in an ability to stock up to 10 times more of each product type and diversify the range of services. John and the Mercato family have continued to be innovative in their approach to the business, developing new concepts such as in-store cooking classes, On The Go readymade restaurant quality meals and an on-site bakery.

The store continues to secure national and local distribution rights for premium products and was licensed for liquor in March 2009. Another proactive approach has been the development of Mercato On The Road, a wholesale arm of the business.

At Mercato we believe the old Italian proverb "A tavola nessuno diventa vecchio"(At the table no one grows old), so much so that we have dedicated ourselves to providing the best selection of local and imported fine foods to our customers.
