After many years of closure, Lucinda Store has once again opened its doors. Owners Fortini and Waldon officially reopened the store on the 14th of December 2022, much to the delight of locals and visitors alike.
Trading seven days a week, the newly refurbished convenience store and café offer an array of everyday essentials alongside a tempting selection of freshly prepared meals. Customers can enjoy fresh fish and chips, breakfast cooked daily, indulgent homemade treats, and delicious pizzas. The store also boasts a relaxing alfresco outdoor dining area, providing a perfect setting to sit back and enjoy the coastal atmosphere.
Fabia Fortini said "The store is on the beachfront, creating a beautiful setting and a relaxed and welcoming vibe," she said.
The outdoor dining area is one of the store’s standout features, offering a cool ocean breeze and breathtaking views of the islands and the iconic Lucinda Jetty. As the longest service jetty in the southern hemisphere, it serves as a popular tourist destination whilst travelling through the Hinchinbrook Shire.
The store’s owners are committed to providing high-quality products and a friendly, community-oriented atmosphere. Fresh seafood is sourced from local professional fishermen, ensuring customers receive the best and freshest options available. This focus on quality and local sourcing has helped the store build a reputation for excellence in both service and product offerings.
Since reopening, the response from the community has been overwhelmingly positive. Residents and seasonal tourists have warmly welcomed the return of Lucinda Store, with many expressing relief at having a local spot once again available for food, drinks, and grocery needs. The convenience of a local store, combined with its high standard of food and service, has quickly made it a favourite among regulars.
With its prime location, delicious food, and friendly service, Lucinda Store is once again a cherished part of the community. Whether it’s for a quick coffee, a relaxed meal, or a takeaway to enjoy by the beach, the store has successfully reestablished itself as a must-visit destination. Fortini and Waldon’s dedication to quality and customer satisfaction ensures that Lucinda Store will continue to thrive for years to come.
