Ariki Store

I work in a shop just down the road from the Ariki Store and had a customer walk in today who burst into tears when asked how she was, due to being falsely accused of stealing the stores magazines, which she had picked up by mistake with her paperwork.
Not only was this poor lady falsely accused, but also deliberately humiliated in front of other patrons.
Clearly the lady working, who felt it was so important to wrongly shame her innocent customer, does not understand the power of word of mouth.
The lovely customer even went to the trouble of going and buying a new magazine to give to the Ariki Store to show she was in no way interested in stealing them.
We certainly hope from now on the Ariki Store staff member thinks twice before making these kinds of nasty accusations.
Shame on you Ariki Store.

Ariki Store is this petit little corner store in the backstreets of Grey Lynn/​Ponsonby that’s run by the loveliest couple! They serve of big scoops of ice cream, thickshakes with homemade syrup (they are unreal), coffee and a small range of salads, wraps and baked goods. Whatever you do, do not miss the brownie. I happened to visit when they just made a fresh batch — TDF!
p. s. if they range in the cabinet is limited — ask if they can make you something. They’ll normally oblige!
p.p.s the only seating is these cool striped bean bags streetside
