This store NEEDS more education on service dog laws/rights, and the A.d.a! We were stalked through the store by the young security guard, argued with bc my dog was not on leash (not required if it interferes with performing tasks) and my dog was at a perfect heel. I called the mngr, she was curt, and also argued with me about it. I sincerely hope that corporate will step up and educate this location.

It is a shame that we do not have a decent grocery store in the city of Kingston. They have been renovating it for MONTHS. They should have just closed and did the renovations all at once. No one knows where anything is. Even before the forever renovation ordeal, they were always out of stuff. I will never buy fresh veggies there because everything looks dirty. I will say that the employees are excellent and have always been nice. I feel bad for them having to deal with this mess...
