Yan’s Supermarket

A true Hutt institution, Yan’s Supermarket sits proudly at the heart of the Lower Hutt city centre, well cognisant of its place in the region’s culinary fabric. Part Asian supermarket and part bustling takeaway, it’s a one-stop shop for any lover of Asian food.

A buzzing, welcoming atmosphere greets you the moment you step into Yan’s. The aisles, teeming with all manner of Asian supplies, hum with the hustle and bustle of efficient shoppers, while lively chatter and the clatter of chopsticks ring out from the adjacent dining area. At first glance, the space can seem sparse and utilitarian, but this is quickly allayed by the warm smiles and attentive service of the staff.

The supermarket half of Yan’s boasts well-organised shelves stocked with a diverse selection of Asian groceries, ranging from fresh produce to specialty sauces and snacks. Complementing this cornucopia of Asian goodness, the restaurant side features a casual and cozy setting, with minimalist decor that allows the rich aromas and flavours to take centre stage. It’s renowned for its authentic Chinese dishes, with the roast duck and BBQ pork popular among regulars. With a wide selection of rice and noodle dishes available, as well as yum cha favourites, don’t be surprised if your quick pit stop turns into a long lunch.

With a comprehensive Asian grocery store and an authentic dining experience all under one roof, it’s no wonder Yan’s Supermarket is a hub of Asian food that draws customers from all over. Try the authentic dishes on offer, explore the ingredients that go into them, and then come back for more.
