Best cold meat and cheese ever! Unfortunatly cant have cold meat whilst im pregnant because all i am craving is a Charlie’s continental roll have been going here since i was a little girl and charlies was just the little corner shop! Amazing

Oh my looooord, this place is magical! How is there not some kind of foodie buzz about this joint a la Re Store?
This place is primarily about one thing — continental deli. There is a 30m long counter just stuffed full of amazing cured meats, cheeses, marinated vegetables, fresh made pastas and more. It’s a utopia.
You can get a bunch of Italian pantry staples as well — everything from chocolate and candy to oils, dried pastas and soft drinks and mixers. They even sell Frank’s hot sauce and wing sauce!
The bakery is kind of amazing as well, selling all sorts of Italian goodies. I haven’t partaken in their cannoli yet, but they look divine. There is also a bakery and a butcher in here with some really impressive looking wares. Nice.

Excellent meats, cheeses and antipastos! They know exactly what we like as we order regularly for our work functions. So tasty and such variety! You have to visit this place and get an Italian fresh roll!

To be honest, I miss read «Fresh Food» for seafood and expected to walk into a fish market. That is not the case here; zero seafood. Within Charlies, there is an assortment of little shops all housed under the same roof, which seems to be fairly common.
Far left, Asian-​run produce. Most of it looked fresh from what I saw aside from the spinach, which is what I needed. It was wet and limp, no-​dice for spinach. Beside the produce is a weird little gift/​nicknack shop, followed by a solo-​run hairdresser, and then what appeared to be a bustling bakery. The one thing I found odd about the bakery is they had two glass cases completely unused and empty. It didn’t appear that they had run out. But, there is a small dining area for people to snack and talk… so possibly they could have.
There is a large-​range of meats in the next kiosk over. The far right side of Charlie’s is completely devoted to a fully-​functional grocery store, with a wall of frozen foods. I found that there is another meat and deli counter in here, as well. I was impressed that I found provolone. Definitely an Expat find!
While Charlies appeared clean, I found the selected stores in here to be a redundant and not really worth the drive, except maybe the next time I need provolone.

This is the deli of all delis! you have got to be crazy not to visit this place if you live in at least 15kms from it.
They have all the meats such as salamis, pastrami’s, peperoni’s all in the ni’s! Their pizza is superb and their continental rolls are divine.
This place is massive and if you have no clue what to cook for that dinner party, just drive on down here and you will have too many ideas.
We love it here and quite frequently just drive down when we are not sure what we want to cook, but be warned, you can go mad in this place. Do get me wrong the prices are good, but there are so many great products to buy that you end up driving home with the «We didn’t really need to buy all of that» conversation. Ohhh, but how you will wow your guests.

Charlies Fresh Food Market is one of those few places that people will travel out of their way for on a regular basis. It has been around for as long as I remember, and seems to be like a good wine. It just gets better with age.
This place is a true italian style deli, with the meats, the olives, gourmet cheese, fresh fruit and vege and pasta. There is also a nice little café where you can enjoy strong italian style coffee and real authentic continental rolls.

My parent’s are connoisseurs. I used to roll my eyes in an exaggerated way when they’d sprout their connoisseur knowledge. Catch phrases like; «Our burgers are better than Hungry Jacks — and they’re healthier too» would always get a reaction.
I was incredibly put out when we spent a precious portion of our Royal Show day at the boring wine tent.
And I worried that my mum would never know a true taste sensation because of her fervent and completely unfounded need to avoid stuffed crust pizzas.
Turns out, my parents do know something about the finer things in life and I suppose it’s fair enough that an over-​indulgent processed cheese pizza doesn’t make the culinary cut for them.
What does, however, make the cut for them is Charlies Fresh Food Market. This Italian-​esque sanctuary is where authentic ethnic food lives. I reckon it’s on a par with the likes of the Re Store and my parents simply rave about it so Charlie must be doing something right.
I would recommend anyone who comes hereto try the olives — belissimo! And, of course, Italian sweets are a must for any pleasure seeking shopper. Oh, and don’t forget the pane — bread-​y goodness at its best.
The prices are reasonable, the staff are friendly and you really can’t miss the massive ‘Charlies’ building on Walter Road.

Great Deli — you wouldn’t believe this place. True little Italian deli, selling a variety of incredible cold meats, fresh pasta, a variety of imported pasta sauces and some awe inspiring Italian sweets! If you’re a fan of Kakulas — try this place out. They are even more authentic Italian, but don’t have the bulk buying capacity that Kakulas do.
