The Market At Local 259 — Local services in Hochatown

What a swanky market! I felt right at home since I usually shop at a health food store. They had just about everything you could want… being that it’s a very small store, the choices were limited. BUT, they had what we needed and we were grateful they had it. Firewood was $20/bundle. Beer was average-priced (it was mostly local beer with a few basics like Budweiser, etc).

At some point it became entertaining walking around to look at prices....

Well I debated writing the review due to the owners unprofessional responses to most of the reviews. My family and I travel rather frequently a year and have been to many rural towns and I have got to say this one takes the cake for the most expensive prices. $67 for pizza and cookies. The deli food appeared as if was sitting out all day as well.You could say it’s like a whole market or Trader Joe’s vibe with over inflated prices.
