About

On North Island, Rainbow Op Shop is a charity shop at 1288 New North Road, Avondale, Auckland 1026, New Zealand. It is known for its Avondale location and its role as a charity retail point in the city.

First-time visitors can expect a compact op shop in the Avondale suburb, with a 4.2 out of 5 average from 36 reviews. The 4.2 out of 5 score across 36 reviews reflects steady local support. Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth are all within the island's reach, and the shop sits on a main road through Avondale.

English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country.

Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black.
