Bin Inn Wholefoods Stonefields sits on Lunn Avenue as a 100 percent Kiwi owned bulk foods store, giving Mount Wellington families a plastic-free way to shop for wholefoods and specialty groceries, including allergy and gluten free ranges suited to a family managing specific dietary needs.
The store’s bulk bin range spans baking and bread ingredients, breakfast cereals and muesli, beans and lentils, seeds and grains, dried fruit and nuts, and confectionery and snack foods, alongside allergy and gluten free foods, organic products, vegan options and home brewing ingredients. A fresh ground peanut butter machine is mentioned repeatedly across local Facebook and review sites as a favourite feature, along with the store’s dairy and Dutch and international food range.
Families following a low waste or plastic-free approach to grocery shopping specifically call out Bin Inn Stonefields for making bulk buying straightforward, since bringing your own containers to fill from the bulk bins cuts down on packaging compared with a standard supermarket shop. Reviewers describe the owners as friendly and knowledgeable, with several noting they moved with the store from its previous Remuera Village location and continued driving to Mount Wellington to keep shopping there.
The store also stocks pet and bird food products, and one reviewer specifically mentions being able to buy food for the local storm water ducks and birds around Stonefields, a small but distinctive local detail some families build into a weekend walk with children.
No appointment is needed for general shopping, and families are encouraged to bring their own containers or bags if planning to buy from the bulk bins to get the full benefit of the store’s plastic-free approach. A Customer Rewards Card is available, earning one point for every $20 spent, redeemable at any Bin Inn store nationwide.
Given its position on Lunn Avenue close to Farro Fresh and Kings Plant Barn Stonefields, families can combine a Bin Inn visit with wider grocery and garden errands in the same trip.
