Hope General Store — Local services in Hope

I’ve had repeated, deeply unpleasant experiences pretty much every single time I’ve gone to this store. I’ve been living in Hope for three months now, and I still get glared at and ignored by the staff here, and treated like an interloper. I’m lucky if the cashier working at any given time actually responds verbally after a transaction when I thank them and wish them a good day - generally I get a cold stare in return.

In addition to being treated like absolute dirt, they overcharge by about a dollar for pretty much every item they sell, which isn’t too pleasant, and have a lackluster and stale selection of snacks. And their pizza is poor to mediocre if you’re lucky enough to get a fresh slice, and absolutely inedible after it’s been sitting out for an hour or longer under the heat lamp - which it usually has been.

Owners were great people and super accommodating. This would be my Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner spot if I lived...

A favorite general store of mine. Hope General, and the town of Hope in general, sure live up to their name. I always hope my travels take me near this place, especially at lunchtime, so I can get some of their terrific pizza! The coffee is always hot, and fresh baked goods are very tasty and plentiful. Locally crafted items, beverages and snacks plus all the usual general store items (ie - a little bit of everything) round out the selection here. Downtown Hope always makes me smile too, there are nice folks and solar panels everywhere... always reminds me of that song: 'Just give me some hope!' Sometimes I (unconsciously) start singing it when I get near this store and when I get there, I'm...
