Port Melbourne's gem: premium produce store with an attached cafe serving great coffee and all-day eats.

A warm, beautifully presented produce store with a cosy cafe corner tucked inside. Flowers and fresh fruit create a market-fresh aesthetic. bright, spacious, and unhurried. Sunday live music adds to the welcoming neighbourhood feel.

Unhomogenised milk on tap in refillable glass bottles, mystery fruit and veg boxes, pre-made charcuterie boards and fruit platters for events, click-and-collect via Rod's app, organic egg and dairy range, freshly squeezed juice bar.

Proudly Australian-sourced. almost exclusively local and Australian-grown produce, reflecting the Rod's brand heritage from South Melbourne Market. Italian seasonal sweets stocked at Christmas.

Comparable or cheaper than chain supermarkets on core produce, with a premium tier for specialty deli and organic items. Cafe pricing is reasonable for the quality. Charcuterie boxes praised as great event value.
