Country Store & Desert Café — Local services in Baker

So this past Monday Jan.16th ( mlk birthday) around maybe 4:15 p.m - 4:30 p.m...I walked into this store. I bought a red bull, a small bag of chips and a few pieces of candy. A lady with long black hair rang up my items. I saw the total but didn't really think about it at the time. I believe it was $15.44. Anyhow while waiting on a receipt, i noticed she had turned away from the register and sort of kneeled down doing something. I didnt want to wait so I walked out. But upon getting ready to drive away I thought about what she charged me for the items and I thought to myself, there's no way these few items costed that much. It appeared to me I was overcharged. So I went back into the store and requested a receipt. She gave it to me, after looking at it, I realized she charged me $5.99 for a handful of candy that was only supposed to cost $3 and she also charged me $2 for lottery tickets that I did not purchase. Upon complaining. She looked at the receipt, refunded me what she owed me, with no argument as im sure she didnt want the other customers to hear what was going on. She brushed me off fairly quickly. As I was leaving it dawned on me that she turned away from the register to grab the lottery tickets that she charged me for. So this lady is overcharging customers purposely and useing customers money to buy her lottery tickets. The outrage I felt when I realized it. Ill be calling the owner tomorrow. Shame on this lady for stealing...

If you're ever driving through Baker on your way to Vegas, make sure to stop by The Country Store!! it’s more than just a typical gas station stop... Open til 11pm, this store has everything you need for a quick pit stop. You'll find an impressive selection of snacks, drinks, and unique trinkets that you won't find anywhere else. It's also a great spot to grab some last-minute lottery tickets.

One of the best things about this place is its welcoming atmosphere. The staff here are always friendly and ready to help, making the experience much more enjoyable. Plus, the store is conveniently located right by the Mad Greek Cafe, so it's easy to pop in while you're grabbing a bite nearby.

Whether you need to refuel with some snacks, pick up a quirky souvenir, or just take a break from the road, The Country Store is definitely worth a visit. It's a small-town gem that offers a touch of local charm and convenience for travelers passing...

Loved it! Fluffy cloud ice and milkshakes to die for are just the tip of the iceberg for all there is at this awesome stop. The huge selection of vintage-style sodas shines and sparkles under display lighting. (We chose Dang! soda.) Souvenirs are fun but if you don't want to spend money, just take your picture outside on the old west wagon or between the angel's wings. The staff are so helpful that when their ice had all sold out in the 116 heat, a call was made and I soon had a 20 pound bag to put in my cooler. This is the best country store...
