About the Business
Welcome to Food Forum, the ultimate destination for fresh, high-quality produce in Canberra, Australia. Located in Belconnen, Benjamin Way, our establishment is not just a point of interest, but a true haven for food enthusiasts.
At Food Forum, we pride ourselves on our commitment to excellence. We wake up at 3 am every morning to ensure that only the finest Australian produce makes it from the fields to our shelves. While many retailers prioritize appearance, our philosophy is centered around taste. If it tastes good, we want it.
We believe in doing things the traditional way. Our in-house butcher shop prepares fresh meat on-site, seven days a week. You won't find any gas-flushed packaged meat with a three-month expiry date in our meat cabinet. Our dedicated buying team is in constant contact with local producers, sourcing the best lamb, beef, and pork our region has to offer.
Unlike other retailers, we debone our chickens in-house, ensuring that our customers receive the freshest product possible. We take pride in offering a wide range of food-related grocery products at competitive prices. From dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt to free-range and cage eggs, we have it all. Our selection also includes health foods, wholefoods, nuts, legumes, herbs, spices, and a variety of continental and oriental products.
Since our doors opened in 2014, we have rapidly grown from serving a few walk-in customers to becoming the go-to supplier for over 200 local businesses. Our fresh produce is delivered six days a week, with a delivery fee of $15 (free for orders over $300). We cover areas such as Civic, Dickson, Kingston, Manuka on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and Gunghalin, Belconnen, Woden, Tuggeranong on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
If you've been searching for a "fresh food market near me" in the ACT, your search ends here. Welcome to Food Forum, where we are passionate about sourcing the best produce that Australia has to offer. From fresh fruits and vegetables to high-quality meats like beef, lamb, chicken, and pork, we have everything you need to create delicious meals for yourself and your loved ones.

Reviews
"Ordered online for click and collect here having never shopped at Food Forum Belco before. Have to say we were really impressed. They were well organised, friendly and very supportive. We ordered a pre-prepared smoked chicken meal too, just to try out and it really was the most delicious chicken with scrummy baked potatoes, salad and dressings, mayo and toppings. It was fresh, tasty and really very special. We'll be back for sure."
"Completed a click and collect order in early September 2021 due to COVID lockdown. The online system was easy to use and they had a good variety of fruits and vegetables. I chose the Food Forum as I could pick the individual fruit and veggies I wanted rather than getting a standard mixed box. Prices were comparable to major supermarkets. Order was ready early (morning of the day I chose whereas timeslot advertised for click and collect was in the afternoon) and I got an email noting I could come and pick up. Pick up was in the back of the store through the 'staff only' doors which was a bit strange, but easy to find and access. The process to pick up was simple, the staff member put my order (which was boxed) in a trolley for me and then cleaned the handle of the trolley and passed it over. The produce (both fruit and vegetables) was excellent. So much fresher and better than the major supermarkets. All very large pieces (giant sweet potato, huge pineapple etc.). We used the food up within a week, but it would have stayed fresh for longer. Overall excellent quality, simple ordering and pick up process. Will use again."
"Just received my first online order and it won't be my last! The produce was wonderful and fresh and top quality. Price was comparable to the supermarkets. Keep up the great work guys in this difficult time!"
"I was looking for a local butcher to buy my meat from and my requirements were: easy ordering system, easy payment system, cheap delivery, deliver on time, ability to only buy the cuts of meat I want and comparatively good prices (was happy to pay a bit extra here and there to support local) - just a few requirements! LOL What I got at the food forum is: more than a butcher - you can order other groceries too (convenience), massive selection of meat types and cuts (great range), the base rates for pricing are really competitive and the specials are outstanding prices (value), online ordering system is well maintained with pictures and clear descriptions (honest), the ordering and payment system was a breeze (easy). My order came on time and looks the same as the pictures! I'm very happy and will definitely be a returning customer"
"The freshness of fruit and veges at the food forum has no question to be asked. Some of those on promo or special are not as good as the normal price ones. Customer service here is a bit shocking. I have never really experienced much welcoming here and hence the 3 star rating. The people employed here does not seem to get the concept of customer service."
