Mullenix Market — Local services in East Port Orchard

I had previously rated this place lower because of one particular employee who worked the night shift in the first couple of months they were open, but he's been gone for quite a while now.

Now, the store is everything I had hoped it would be, and then some. They make excellent breakfast sandwiches and other hot food, they make espresso, they have frozen slushee type drinks (including mandarin orange flavored Jarrito's!), And they have a killer selection of beer and hard cider.

I have only used the bathroom once but it was the cleanest gas station bathroom I have ever seen. The staff are all friendly, and it's very rare to have to wait in line, and when that happens, it only lasts about 1 minute. Always very fast, thanks to an owner or manager who knows how to properly staff his store and ensure there are two people available to run separate registers during the busier parts of the day.

They seem to always be hiring (they usually have a sign up on the door saying so) but somehow it never feels like they are short-staffed or falling behind on cleaning and whatnot, which strikes me as a testament to the dedication and hard work of the people who do work there.

Mullenix Road Shell gas station “Market Deli”- stopped by yesterday at 7am for gas and could smell food from outside, decided to try their breakfast sandwiches. Lots of sandwich combos- enjoyed the chicken waffle the most! My husband frequently drops by McDonald’s in the AM, now we have a new spot to grab and go. In fact, after dropping the kids at school we went back for day 2 in a row. Tried the waffle sausage egg bacon combo- something about the waffle has a subtle sweetness and sugar crunch. Deli was out of the chicken waffle but staff was happy to make a fresh one for us. Friendly staff at the station too (I work at Tacoma General and refuse to get gas on Hilltop- really a refresher to see kind people after dealing with the...

They JUST opened, so expect some minor kinks to work out. For example, things didn't have prices marked, and the deli/espresso seems like maybe they were still working out some organization training. The brand of coffee the use for the espresso is rather bitter. Other than those couple of items, the employees are extremely helpful and courteous, and there's a good variety of other drinks and goodies. I'd like the drive-through for the deli and espresso. Makes it really easy to get a drink and breakfast sandwich or...
