About Mercato (Gurney Plaza)
Mercato replaced the old Cold Storage in the basement of Gurney Plaza and is the most upmarket of the supermarkets in Penang. When it opened it was the first in the state to sell Japanese A5 wagyu and seafood from live tanks, and it carries a wine selection of around 2,000 bottles.
It is a good place for imported groceries, cheese and wine, though everyday Malaysian snacks are cheaper at Mydin, GAMA or Lotus's. In mid-2026 the state health department ordered a Gurney Plaza supermarket to close until 2 August over hygiene issues found during an inspection, so check that it is trading before you make a special trip.
