Wow!! Is all we can say.🎉🥳what a beautifully overwhelming night for our first takeaway evening. We truely appreciated the patience, feedback and support. We clearly need another two deep fryers as we struggled to keep up. We are sorry for the wait time for some orders and we will do better next Friday. The AMAZING team got their mojo going so now we can settle in for our next takeaway night. We went through ALOT of fish and chips.🦈🍟The tarakihi and fresh batter seemed to be the star of the night. Thanks again everyone.

Good morning everyone.
Please see our menu for tonight. We will stop cooking at 7pm so if you want to phone an order through before then, that would be great. The team are looking forward to seeing you there tonight.

Hi everyone. Apologies, we were aiming to put the menu up tonight but will do it first thing tomorrow morning once we have sorted our fish supply. We are wanting to batter our own fresh fish but this is difficult to do, especially with the price of fish!! Anyhooo, we will have a plan by the morning. We have phone orders already for tomorrow so it looks like we are going to be busy.👍😁 phone orders are welcome.
Meantime, come and enjoy home made pea n ham soup and toast on these cooler days along with out other yummy food.☕️🥪🍟🍔 watch this space.

Good morning everyone. Thank you for the first day support. Its great to keep meeting people. We have had an interesting suggestion and want to get some feedback. The idea of have an area for a couch to sit inside, have a coffee, read a book etc seems appealling. Would this type of area be used much? Please let us know.
Most of the shop is restocked now. Will have pet food, ice blocks and ice by next week.. we havent forgotten our gluten free whanau. We will be building up those products too. 🤩 Take care out there, stay warm. 😁👍

Good morning everyone. We now have eftpos 🥳🎉
Thanks for your patience while this was being set up. Now for improved internet!
The team are ready to start hot meals again and are making great coffees.☕️
The plan for next week is to stock ice cream/iceblocks. 🥶 i know right? Even at this time of year we are being asked for them so.... its happening.
Lollies are in and more arriving on Tuesday.
We will keep growing the grocery lines.
Have an awsome day, keep warm and stay safe.😁👍

Hi everyone, we will be open tomorrow 9-5. 🥳🎉We will do our best for the community and welcome ideas to improve services. At present our hours will be 9-5 Monday - Saturday and 9-2 on Sundays. 🕔 As the shop grows, so will the hours. We are interested to know if people would like a late night on Thursdays or Fridays for takeaways. 🍔🍟Let us know.
We are hoping to have eftpos up and running by the weekend so at present we can do cash 💰 or internet banking. Sorry for the delay in getting it sorted, its quite a process. 🤦‍♀️
We wont be having tick ups.
We will continue with the few accounts that have a proven history with the store. The list is very small.
We are looking forward to being part of the very welcoming community. Thank you to all of you who have introduced yourselves already. 🤩

It's with great pleasure and yes relief that the community of Onga Onga will continue to have it's General Store. Shelley and Bevan Smith will take over on the 8th of June the shop will be closed from the 6th and reopen on the 9th. I'm sure you will all welcome and support them as Onga does. Yes we are in trying economic times, but please try to because our type of shop is a dying breed, but with your help we can keep Shelley and Bevans dreams alive. Leanne will be back 😊 yay so the new line up is looking great .I wish you all the very best for the future, we've enjoyed our time with you, wonderful memories we'll take away along with new friends made along the way. From Cushla, Mike , Jasmine, Leanne, Chelsea, Leslie, Karen and Jess Past and present.

Those who have not paid their overdue accounts and those who have been making times/promises to be paid a list will be displayed at the shop. I won’t be posting on social media but in the shop window it will be displayed 🤷🏻‍♀️ hopefully the power of peer pressure from your friends might encourage you to do the right thing
