The Happy Apple

Favorite grocery store near my house I often go to buy food and groceries. Especially the flowers are always cute and fresh and lovely price. The staff were always smiling, friendly chatted. let’s support local shops🤟🏻

Lovely local grocery store. Workers such as Ray, Jamie and Niall are simply the loveliest, always seem to have a smile on their face😄! Makes the whole shopping experience very enjoyable when you are greeted in such a way. I must say their range of deli produce and fruit and veg is exceptional and high quality. You get what you pay for in this economy!!

Great grocery store, always have fresh, quality produce and excellent service!

Love love this place best wafer crackers just a bit thinner than the ones you at the big two. My go to for top quality cheeses and deli meats when making a cheese board and they have fantastic high end chocolates as well as there fresh produce is implacably merchandised it looks fantastic and very enticing you just want to buy it. Last time I walked back into the fresh produce 3 times and the man servicing that area was lovely and very helpful as to was the lady in the deli she came around the counter to help me as I couldn’t find the Will Stud cheese and the service at the checkout is always delightful….what a great store Happy Apple you make me happy

A good variety of produce , not cheap, but quality is there. A top delli and selection of cold meats. Good flowers and fruits as well.

I love a small little local store that I can easily access. Happy Apple provides a good deli, reliable produce, a good selection of beer,and even freshly squeezed orange juice. What more do I want? Perhaps the price? But then you get what you pay for. See the poke bowl, vegetarian lasagna and tasty pastries. One of Ascot Vale's best

The service here is fantastic, Lynne always goes out of her way to help out!

Looking a lot better under new owners. Food no longer out of date! Fruit and veg great quality and the hearing is on!

This is just an amazing store. Their fresh produce is just consistently top quality, and prices similar to the big supermarkets. I go out of my way to get my fruit from there. It’s always so fresh and tasty. Once I started buying fruit here, I never went back to the major supermarkets. The staff are also super friendly. It always feels good to support local.

Really impressed. Actually only ordered from them because Dad wanted some Dr Marty's Crumpets, they are hard to come by. I've ended up ordering a lot from them the meat is of great quality and veg and fruit too. Deliveries are always great. Probably using them more than yourgrocer at the moment. And they are not to shabby either.

Their home made orange juice is incredibly yummy

Always delicious food and high quality fruit and vegetables! Also it can be difficult shopping with a baby- after going through the registers, the lovely lady who served me was very kind and unpacked and repacked my bag and another staff member offered to help me out to the car with my groceries which I SO appreciated! Love this shop so much 💙

I get weekly food deliveries from this place. The food quality is AMAZING. Like, tomatoes that taste like tomatoes! And I'm super duper impressed by how helpful and responsive the staff are by email, SMS, or phone call. Seriously, this place sets the example of what perfect customer service should be.

The best local supermarket………quality fresh produce, plenty of options to choose from and to top it all off……..great service!

The Happy Apple has beautiful fresh food and some really interesting packaged products. Everything is fresh and delicious, and the staff are always so friendly and helpful. I often get my groceries delivered and have not had a single issue. They are amazing!

Update: The manager called the week after and was able to clarify that they would generally offer other solutions such as delivery of missing items or credit. And apologised for the situation.
And the response below from Happy Apple demonstrates their quality service which I have seen for the past couple of years. Thank you Happy Apple!

This rating is for their delivery service only.

The main concern was the vegetable box ordered did not contain some of the items listed and upon politely highlighting this they essentially apologised and did not compensate at all!

They said the contents had changed that day but I checked their website and it still had the contents I saw when ordering. When communicating this, they then changed the contents description to a vague description with no contents.

The box I received missed 3 of the listed items and hence not really value for money. Might as well but them seperately.

I love this shop they always have such a variety of high quality groceries, fresh produce & ready made meals. They are also very accomodating and have ordered in wine for me upon request. Shop local!

With very short notice I ordered a Grazing Box and bunch of flowers. Marisa went out of her way to accommodate me. The flowers were beautiful and the Grazing Box was outstanding! My friend was blown away. 5 stars to all of you!

Good quality produce and they stock great quality food products. Staff are friendly and has a lovely local village feel. They also own the food works next door. It will be great when they make this 1 big store!!

Wonderful place to get a selection of pretty much everything your heart desires to eat and drink. Great vibe too with happy workers and a friendly local feel. I love dropping in to see what is on special, or pick up some snacks, or something for dinner. I'm yet to try one of the roasts that can be preordered but looking forward to it when I finally do!

What's not to love about The Happy Apple? The owners are amazing humans, the workers are lovely and the produce and foods are delicious! They are the best place to buy fresh produce from in Ascot Vale. They go above and beyond to help find items and stock wanted products.
