Rare Kinkacruiser Posted January 19, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Is there a small supermarket/ grocery store somewhere reasonably close to the I.T. where I can buy my nibbly supplies for a cruise? I have the address in George St for the Liquorland outlet :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjm66 Posted January 19, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2013 There is a Coles on the corner of King and George Street. Lots of nibbles and other supermarket lines. There is also a dearer but closer mini mart directly under the station at Circular Quay. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biognige Posted January 19, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 19, 2013 There is a small supermarket on the corner of Pitt Street and Circular Quay but is on the pricey side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mochuck Posted January 19, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I have never taken food on a cruise - it sounds like a good idea. Cheese and bikkies to have with wine. Are you actually allowed to take food onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you actually allowed to take food onboard? Yep you can take what you like. We take chips and cashews. You can generally get cheese and bickies from the buffet for your own sail away parties. We always do it. Had a wonderful day with friends in Fiordland on our balcony with our nibblies. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you actually allowed to take food onboard? No problems taking food onboard, taking it off is not allowed. The crackers in the buffet are generally broken and too fiddly to open in the two-packs. Cheese, olives nuts are 'free' on board. Definitely need a jar of good coffee and other stuff you don't want to waste baggage allowance on. Thanks for those addresses. I can google them to check distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SydSailor Posted January 20, 2013 #10 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Best bet for supermarket is Woolworths in the Metcentre on George ST (near corner of Margaret St). It is 2-3 blocks closer to Circ Quay than the Coles on King/George. Closed Sun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretending Posted January 20, 2013 #11 Share Posted January 20, 2013 There is a Woolworths in the city directly opposite the town hall from memory. Just grab the free city circle bus that runs from circular quay up into the city and back again. It stops many times on the way. Ask the driver to let you know which stop to get off. We have always found them to be very friendly and helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
