PSA: Aldi Australia is about to launch its most luxe summer dining range ever – and it starts at just $6.99
Australian shoppers will soon be flocking to Aldi to get their hands on a range of Amalfi Coast inspired homewares – without the price tag.
The budget supermarket chain is launching a luxe line of dinnerware and serving ware that’s ready made for summer entertaining.
The premium looking range drops in the Aldi middle aisle on Saturday October 25 – and is already predicted to be a sellout.
Even better, the budget-friendly price point makes it accessible, with pieces starting at $6.99 and topping out at $29.99.
The new homewares feature distinct Mediterranean coastal design motifs – including sea life, beachy prints and lemon designs.
The vibrant tableware has a tonal colour palette of whites, blues and yellows, making it easy to mix and match your favourite pieces together to create a gorgeous tablespace.
The standout pieces from the range are the new ceramic serving trays, each priced at $14.99.
Available in either a circular, oval, or rectangular shape, the trays feature either a lemon-theme or under the sea design.

The standout pieces from the range are the new ceramic serving trays, each priced at $14.99. They come in various shapes and feature either a lemon-theme or under the sea design
The coastal inspired range also includes four packs of napkin rings for $14.99. They come in a number of different beaded textural designs
These dinning plates come in sets of two for $6.99 and feature an Italian stamp print design
But the favourite is sure to be a scalloped round tray, which has an illustrated lemon tree emblazoned with the words ‘La Dolce Vita’. Bellissima.
The striking placemats are another must-have for summer tables. Priced at $14.99 each, there are four designs to choose from: a sea green shell, a blue and white sea plant design, a natural brown fan shell and a scalloped lemon design.
There are also matching textured coasters in similar designs to the placemats.
To bring a sense of occasion to your summer entertaining, there’s also the option of the divine underwater or lemon themed napkin rings, which would also be perfect to double as place holders.
Both the coasters and the napkin rings are multi-dimensional with beaded pattern details – meaning they don’t just look superb but are invitingly tactile. They are sold in in four packs priced at $14.99.
Completing the Amalfi Coast design-themed homewares are a range of bowls and plates.
Both are $6.99 for a pack of two, with the plate and bowl designs including an Italian stamp print design, sea life and – once again – loads of lemons.
Those hosting outdoors may wish want to up the ante with a delightful yet practical serving tray that comes with a food cover, priced at $29.99.
Each piece is inspired by the coastal trend often sold for as much as 15x more at designer outlets
The range is perfect for outdoor dining through the summer months

Amalfi Coast lemon prints feature all throughout the new Aldi Australia homewares range, including on this set of two bowls, $6.99
Inlaid with a delightful aquatic fish design tray, the wooden and mesh cover fits neatly over the top to prevent unwanted flies or pests spoiling the party food.
Or, for those who prefer a more minimal design, there are three packs of white dipping bowls for $6.99, which feature various blue sea life prints on the bottom.
It’s not the first time that Aldi Australia has wowed with their Special Buys summer homewares.
Back in December 2023, the budget supermarket released a tableware range that had a similar feel to a designer brand.
At the time, home stylists noted that Aldi’s colourful seafood-themed plates were reminiscent of the designs of favourite Australian brand In The Roundhouse.
Customers were ‘obsessed’ with the vibrant dinner wear range which was adorned with playful patterns and illustrations of fish, lobsters, octopus, prawns and crabs.
And by comparison, the Aldi plates at the time only cost $6.99 for a set of two, while one In The Roundhouse plate sets you back $29.
