Re Store

Yes, enormous store crammed with all the quality coffee, cheeses, meats, full range of alcohol and everything in the range of continental goods you just can’t get at the supermarkets.
What we are there for is the rolls, as soon as you enter you must get your number before a hoard of ravenous tradies, office workers, third generation clients and sales reps going way out of their scheduled route come storming in.
Although I am a fan of the mixed meats at the Re Store and would like to go the ‘house special’, the rest of the crew insist on the chicken schnitzel. It is damn good so I very rarely pass it by. The quality of the meat and seasoning with the crumbing is very good but there is inconsistency with the schnitzel approach because the cost is by weight, fair enough as you get small and large schnitzels. Yesterday the crew was down to two due to leave so we loaded one up and went halves (chicken schnitzel warmed up and wasn’t very big — by choice — we went the peppers and olives mix, cheese, jalapenos and a little lettuce) and the judgement was that it ‘popped’, right up there with the best in Perth. $ 12.10 halved did the job well. Last time we went a larger schnitzel and it was $ 14.80.
The only reason we put a 4 star but edging on 5 is only due to us being cheap with our aim for the $ 5 lunch and the ‘extras’ are possibly the highest around. Generally to add a minor extra like carrot or tomato you’d expect 50c. At Re, 80c for lettuce. Medium extras such like jalapenos, artichokes, sundried tomatoes etc generally hit the $ 1 mark. At Re, $ 1.60.
Team Score —
Roll 5 — not too filling, crunchy or soft
Service 4.9 — awesome service and asked the right questions such as «warm the meat?» but if you are asked to cut in half when two men are in front of you please don’t go the diagonal and as it is not very precise as there may be brawl out the front when the roll is unwrapped.
Meat 5 — Very fresh and perfectly cooked chicken schnitzel warmed up just enough to melt the cheese but not take the edge off the salad extras.
Extras 4 — fresh, tasty and well portioned. Just a tad pricey.
Wrap 5 — the deli paper wrap is used by all the great roll makers. Not made hours ago, wrapped in glad and sitting in a fridge.
Eating 5 — ever wondered why the re Store has such a massive overhang at the front of the building? It is huge. Shade for hot, cover for rain and we have always got a seat.
Location 5 — extremely busy place for lunch, always a park close by. We park on Oxford St and walk, check out the bays, the size of the curbs and crazy going-​ons while you eat your roll and you’ll see why.

If you are pining for the Mother Country and you feel the urge to fill your pantry with a variety of Italian products with pictures of buxom senioritas on the labels, then make your way to Re Store and fill your baskets. The other terrific thing about this joint, along with being able to get pretty much every Italian Deli product known to man and woman, is the extensive national and international selection of wines available. If you seek a particular wine and you cannot find it on the shelf, just ask at the check out for the liquor manager. He will then check electronic records for stock, because the truth is they hold far more than they can display. So you may just get it.
Hot tip No.1: This is my go-​to place to create or fill an hamper, be it for a gift, a picnic or Christmas. Buon Natale!
Hot tip No. 2: truly mentally busy at lunch times and on Saturdays, so grab a ticket as soon as you walk in to join the queue. Browse and decide while you wait for your number to come up.

The Re Store is almost a place of magic and wonderment from the moment you walk through through the doors. Every where yo can see are awesome tastes and smells just waiting too be had/​brought from coffee and machines beautiful pastas very much the A to z of every thing EUROPEAN. Also a great Bottle shop. All in all a great place with friendly and helpful staff.

Welcome to food heaven! I love the re-​store with the variety and beautiful packaging. The exciting mix of different foods and alluring presentation made me want to gift abd be gifted with the range of chocolate, cheeses and tea on offer.
The only reason I gave it a 4 out of 5 is because if I was to buy a handful of items I would leave with quite a lighter wallet. I group Re store, Herdsman and Nosh Gourmet in the same category of — ”One day when I’m rich I can shop here every week”. But in the meantime I will continue occasionally treating myself and dreaming of re store products.

If this place wasn’t a hop, skip, and a jump away, I’d be here every day.
MASSIVE selection of beer, wine, and liquor: check
MASSIVE selection of deli meats, cheeses, and a sandwich bar: check
MASSIVE selection of continental goods: check
The queue makes me sad sometimes, but it’s a goer for a weekday arvo or morning before the lunch rush, and you’ll definitely leave here happy (although a bit lighter in the wallet)!

This place is amazing. It stocks a huge variety of wines, liquors, beers and ciders. They have tasty Italian imported delights and treats ranging from pasta sauces to chocolates. I love the home made pasta and tortellini. Definitely a must for antipasto, olives, cheeses and meats. Come here for lunch a. Grab a sandwich made fresh– my favourite is the house special! Thank goodness we still have authentic shops like this one!

Olives out the ojos (that’s eyes, folks)! Mercy me, I’ve never seen so many options! Nor have I seen a deli actually need a «take a number» machine, but this place ain’t any ol’ deli. It was absolutely packed to the brim with patrons all lining up for cured meats, specialty cheeses and marinated Mediterranean goodness.
«Pardon and excuse me’s» were continual exchanged between various line-​ups to get around the store. Saturdays are obviously bonkers. I still don’t get the name of the (Re)store, as Olives R Us would be more explanatory. The other branch in Northbridge at least has kitchen items, plates, gifts, etc. We bought our stovetop espresso coffee pot from there.
The to-​go sandwiches seemed to be a large hit among shoppers and my belly. Had I gone at a non-​prime time, I would have shopped around more for my sweet tooth.

Throw me a roll with mixed meats, cheese, artichoke, olives and roasted peppers and I’ll be your friend any day of the week.
This place is a ginormous supplier of deli goods and international imports, as well as being an extensive supplier of booze.
I love the fact that you can go stock up on goods from home, but you can also dash in for a quite gourmet bun/​roll takeaway pickup. With little patio settings outside they even provide a place to sit and enjoy the day.
I don’t understand the name, as I would have expected to find used furniture there this was a treat.

Love the Re Store for all Italian delights. The continental mixed meat rolls are too die for! The white rolls are worth getting but wholemeal is still good. Free Range local eggs were surprisingly cheap and we picked up a bottle of Skuttlebutts vino rosso from Margaret River for a good price. They threw in a free wine cooler too! :)

The staff without exception were extremely patient and helpful and cheerful and it is always a delight to visit.
We brought our friends from Sicily to the Re Store and they said they felt as if they were back in Italy! That says it all.

One of my favourite gourmet stores. It has a vast array of all things Italian such as pastas (including non wheat or gluten free), olive oils, cheeses (has my favourite — Buffalo Mozzarella), sugos, salumi. Also has a great International beer section at the left hand side (which includes my Brooklyn Beer!).

Buon giorno Italia! Molto lieto.
My loves:
–Cheese and cold meats to sample throughout your browse
–Wide variety of imported wines, beers, ciders, liqueurs and other tantalising liquids that all promising a good time. Plus once a year, just before stocktake a good sale!
— house made pasta, the proper Italian way. I heart the pumpkin and ricotta ravioli with spirals of parmesan.
— made to order sandwiches, packed full of grilled artichoke, cheese, sundried tomatoes, ham and other antipasto delights. Very satisfying and almost too much to eat in one sitting it’s that good.
Even if you don’t end up buying a thing and just stock up on free samples, the atmosphere, the European finds and the people you could bump into it well worth it.
Ciao!

I have hit my head against a brick wall trying to find Romano cheese… guess who has it!!! Re Store! FINALLY.
I couldn’t help but want one of those glass figurines filled with liquor… awesomeness.

Has everything and so much more! I need to move next door to this place!

Every time I walk through the doors, I am convinced that Italy is the place I need to be living. We lived in a small Italian village for about 6 months several years ago and I love that being here reminds me of this place, even though it’s in the middle (ish) of Perth. They stock cakes, biscuits, coffee, oil and just about everything Italian. And you can’t leave without buying some pasta and a roll. They are almost too delicious to handle.
The staff are always helpful and friendly. Depending on who’s working, I am greeted by name (which I find very impressive, as I wouldn’t consider myself a regular). Despite how large it is, they have managed to maintain the feel of an honest, family run business. I visited a couple of days ago with my Dad, who knows one of the managers and they were talking about how the business has managed to survive when so many similar ones have recently had to shut down. We were told that they pride themselves on their customer service and the quality of their food, and this alone would keep them going for many more years and I couldn’t agree more.
I am being dead serious when I say that I would live in the Re Store if I could.

I often find myself going out of my way to stop by this place and grab a few things. Those few things are usually sweet Italian pastries and San Pellegrino by the carton! The variety of deli-​style foods on offer is large and the prices are reasonable. They also have a large wine selection which I would estimate takes up half the physical store. The deli counter is mouthwatering, and even as a vegetarian I find myself looking at the salami’s and cold cuts for a little too long. The staff are adorable and there is a few Italian ladies there with cute accents. Overall, a wonderful place to stock up on European specialty foods.

Ever wondered when lunch time hits, where it is every one you work with bolts off too? Well for me, as soon as the clock strikes 12, I regularly stop whatever it is I am doing and devote all my attention to eating. What must I be eating that is so important you ask? Let me tell you that the lunch time queue is definitely worth it, because from the moment your eyes lock with the fresh ingredients at the Re-​Store, and yours lips touch your own made to order deli roll, your life will never be the same.
The Re-​Store is an exceptional Italian style deli, selling anything and everything: from coffee to cheese, to premium cut meats, to the finest imported wines and liqueurs.
Until you have tried the Re-Store’s authentic Italian delights you have not lived!

The Re Store is a Western Australian institution, that has provided imported continental food for as long as most of us can remember. The large space is packed with everything from exotic coffees to fresh pasta to exclusive liquors. The Re Store experience is enough to stoke the creative culinary coals of any foodie. A word of warning, if you plan on buying only a couple of items there is no doubt you will walk out of there with a couple of bags of ‘required essentials’.
The notoriety of the establishment means often you will bump in to friends and old acquaintances in the store whom like yourself are searching for the unique flavours of the old country. For those who don’t mind a drink on a hot day, the extensive liquor range has won numerous awards. My recommendation is to brave the usually long line and wrap your laughing gear around one of their infamous continental rolls.
