Great little neighborhood grocery store with an eclectic selection of items as well as a Boars Head selection of meats and sandwich offerings. I tried their reuben. It was good, but a little different. Instead of sauerkraut they used coleslaw. And it worked well enough, except the small bits of carrot added a new flavor to your standard reuben that I'm not entirely sure worked. Still killed it, though.
I also have to say, their potato salad showed great potential. The seasoning, vinegar, and sweetness was all spot on in a way that most potato salads miss the mark on. Really excellent in this regard! But there is nothing else going on either! If they added some celery and red onion this would be a top notch potato salad! Or really anything! This potato salad is just potato and dressing!
I also grabbed one of the ice cream sandwiches that I've never seen before from the freezer in the back and it was tremendous! Peanut butter and concord grape ice cream sandwich, heck ya!

The other day I went in to buy a single item and realized the price was raised again, and walked out. It was already priced high compared to anywhere else, which is fair, I get that is the economical caveat of a small market. But there's definitely a limit to the "why am I paying...
Read moreIt’s a cute, convenient store with nice staff that I want to like so bad, but it’s hard to. The prices are the highest around for almost everything. In addition to overcharging for their products, they’ve started charging extra for people using credit cards showing very little regard for their customers. The prepared food is generally disappointing. I’ve tried several of their sandwiches and not been happy with any whether it’s the dry, stale sandwich roll of the Italian or the wafer thin Rueben or the overly salty chicken salad Their ice cream selection is laughably bad
It’s a nice place to have in a pinch and as convenience stores go it has an impressive selection of real food, but go...
