Sciclunas Real Food Merchants

Top quality food. Classy atmosphere.
Also excellent take away coffee and snacks.
Probably the finest local food merchant in the south eastern suburbs of Melbourne.
Do yourself a favour and pop down there!

Staff at sciclunas are lovely, Girls at the cafe specifically-consistently make really great coffee! The Kids love the milkshakes here too.

I'd searched high and low for stinging nettles (don't ask, pregnancy cravings) and these guys brought in as much as I wanted the next day!!! The best kindest humans I've encountered in retail

I tried some hot chocolate from their cafe and OMG. I loved it so much that another time while having a connecting bus service and got two so my friend (Who was on the same bus) could try the hot chocolate and he loved it too. I highly recommend getting drinks from their cafe. The Barista who works there is very nice and she produces a very consistent hot chocolate every time I go there. ;)

Have been going here for 15 years and love it just the same every time I go. Friendly, efficient staff, great vibe. Clean and fresh fruit. Yummy cheeses, stunning flowers. Great coffee too.

Love this place. It's simply a happy place to browse and shop.

The wide range of fresh produce is reasonably priced and great quality.

The deli and pantry items are super tempting and the pavement cafe is fantastic.

Service can be a little patchy. Some staff training in exemplary customer service wouldn't go astray but still giving it 5 stars.

, those staff training in thie area mightn't go astray

This is a very well run business. The deli area has a wonderful display of a variety of food.
It is beautifully displayed and the hygiene when serving is always well done.
THE PLACE is CLEAN. You get what you pay for!!! Which is quality. The specials are good value. The staff have always been helpful and pleasant when shopping there.
It was time that i typed this review to give credit where creditS due

Coffee is pretty good, and the baristas on the machine do great job.

First time visit long time drive bys. Loved the variety inside, the cleanliness of the shop floor and how lovely the staff are. They have a variety of different groceries, ingredients and suppliers so you can help support local businesses. All round loved the visit and will surely be coming back for more 🍞🥐🥖🥩☕🍫

Their name gives you part of the story. But to get the full picture you have to visit one of the stores.

Fantastic local products. Always fresh. Always tasty.

I have never so much artesian breads, gourmet cheeses, small goods, as well as the freshest fruit and vegetables in one store.

An amazing collection of food products beautifully presented. Very friendly and helpful staff

The best food store this far South by far.
Since they redone the shop, it has taken a bit of a price increase for sure.
However, their Deli section makes it worthwhile, quite rare for the area, they have a huge range of cheeses and Charcuterie.
For myself, they are the only shop South, storing Kangaroo Island Free Range eggs (Only eggs in Australia Human Choice approved FYI)
And the Nitrate free Salami are always on my list.
The customer service is consistently great.

What a brilliant shop it has everything from fruit and vegetables, jar and bottled sauces and condiments. Any cheese you could imagine.The shop itself is to die for with many other array of foods. It's a must see.

I like their diverse range of food options.
Recently bought a beautiful floral plant 🪴 from them as a gift for someone. They have complimentary flower wrapping and ribbon self-service, which is awesome.

having worked in this industry I really appreciate the quality of goods, esp. the coffee. Prices are on par with others selling similar and sometimes a tad less. Love the fact that you can get everything you want + things you won't see anywhere else. More a total shopping experience/fun day out if you are a 'foodie', worth the drive from Balwyn.

This is a premium market store. It is going to cost you plenty yet the foods on offer are mostly high quality. If you have a keen eye for culinary treats you will find it here amongst the amtures choices. Yum yum in my Tum.

Excellent choice of fresh produce. Small goods section is worthwhile exploring. The flower stand is excellent, especially, on Fridays and Saturdays. Good quality flowers for a very reasonable price.

Not only do you provide very fresh and mostly Australian grown produce, the presentation of produce is amazing. You also source some delicious cheeses and charcuterie yummies. Staff are always pleasant and helpful and you offer great marketing and customer service by providing daily tastes of both cheeses and product available instore. Cant leave the shop without buying and its very infrequently that they don't stock an item often unprocurable elsewhere. Quality Quality
We are lucky to have you in Mentone thanks

Great shop for fresh and local produce ! Staff always happy to assist and very polite and professional! You can always find something special every week , or try different fruit or yogurts, dips or cheese! Highly recommended !

Love this place so much. The fruit and vegetables actually have flavour and texture. Grocery selection is excellent. Staff are super helpful and friendly. Awesome store.
