Second Ave Grocer (Altona Fresh)

We LOVE this grocer. The selection of fruit and veggies is second to none. The deli is our favourite part of the grocery store, Lisa and Dominica behind the counter are a delight to deal with are just lovely ladies. The boys who run the Backstreet BBQ are great too!

Found this little hidden treasure after a friend recommended them.
Just like a huge Italian Deli with a huge variety of foods and items to buy.
Their fruit is always fresh and tastes yummy. They have yummy cakes too.
Worth a visit.

Friendly staff and very helpful. Clean store and awesome produce.

The pride of the west! Second Ave is a fine food institution that offers amazing quality and service with a smile.
We’ll known for there selection of cold meats and fine cheese. My fave has to be there grazing box! The perfect, easy solution if you’re looking to 1up your mates at your next bbq or potluck gathering. Also a great gifting solution, so long as the lucky recipient is willing to share 🤤🥰

Tucked away in an unassuming part of Altona is one of the most delightful “grocer” shops in the west. When you walk in for those one or two items, suddenly you find a whole lots of new things that tempt you and end up in your basket.
The prosciutto (Jamon) is absolutely superb, sliced to perfection and laid out just the right way so I can go home and serve easily.
The staff are lovely and helpful. Nothing is too much problem. They even taught my friend how to cook the saganyaki - which he did, following their directions to the letter and it came out perfectly.
The range of goods here are endless. Teas, coffees, pickles, spreadS, oils, deli items, pasta, sweet treats, fresh produce, sardines, maple syrup and so much more.
The displays are nicely done including the ones higher up above the shelves - quite cute.
Notes: plenty of parking out the front and across the road, kid friendly, wheelchair accessible.

So happy to live near by this AMAZING deli 🙏🏼 good service with quality products.. let's not forget the boys an the burgers,,, best in the West by far 👌🏼

Best quality European food you can get around Melbourne shopping here is like your in Europe. Great meats, cheeses, pastas and selection of fruit and veg!

Good coffee, great Danish and delicatessen variety 👌 a little expensive but worth a browse and buy.

Love this deli, it has the best range of delicacies. Never disappoints and the staff are wonderfully helpful.

Always great! Plan to spend extra on things you didn't know you needed until you saw them there 🙂

Don't change a thing yous are amazing I love your jam doughnuts not too much jam it's a perfect treat I also love the range of pasta choices you have and so much variety to choose from im glad I found this store I will come back for sure 😀

What a wonderful place to go for your international grocers. You will find everything and anything that will make your mouth water for more ✨

Fabulous. It's a must. Great people are working there. They have everything. You must go in and check this place out.

Simply outstanding! I absolutely love 2nd Ave Grocer.. Fav items apart from the best fruit & veg are the croissants, gypsy ham, dolmades and the cheese bar! An easy 5 stars for the service too - feels like the good old days!

Hey google users,
This is the best deli in the area.

Best quality food, small goods cheese, cakes, bread fruit n vegetables, mini supermarket shopped here for years, great customer service. I LOVE THIS SHOP 😀

A M A Z I N G!

I have been shopping here for the past 8 years, since we moved in the area. We don't go to the supermarket, my 12 year old and I go to see John or Phil. We go because the selection is great and the people are lovely. The quality is leaps and bounds better than any of the major retailers, fruit & veg, cheeses, deli, bread and so much more.

Highlights are the deli, the cheeses, the tastings from various suppliers and the sausage sizzle on Sat morning.

It is also the way it should, like the old days, where people also meet other locals and the community feeling.

Keep up the good work guys!

This business deserves 10 stars.
Just order fruit and cheese basket great presentation and fresh.
Thanks to Julie great job

Excellent quality ingredients to be sourced here, the best small goods and cheese selection in the area. Small selection of superb fruit and vegetables. Excellent coffee served here. Lots of different coffee beans and the like. Spares for stove top coffee makers etc. The best deli around.

Excellent selection of cheeses and deli options (the ham and salami options in particular are stand out).
This place has a wonderful community/family feel and my partner and I love coming here on a Saturday morning and selecting some of their beautiful produce when we have people coming round.
