Mars Salt and Sweet - Closed

The Verdict

Editor’s Note: This venue is permanently closed

Conveniently located a hop, step and a jump from Point Chev beach, Mars Salt and Sweet is your one-stop shop for picnic supplies and ice-cream! The boutique grocer stocks everything from cheese and pâté to cured meats and divine pastries—including Heaven Scent pies. You’ll also find freshly squeezed juices, smoothies and Eighthirty coffee. The real drawcard is their scoops of Charlie’s gelato and sorbetti, supplied by the much-loved creamery in Matakana. Choose between flavours such as coconut, Bounty Bar, lemon meringue and dark chocolate—mmm!

Please note: Mars Salt and Sweet change their opening hours based on the tides and weather, so check in with the team before you visit!
