👍👍 Been our local convenience store for 5+ years. The owners who work most days are the best. Super nice and always friendly to whomever comes in. Plus there patience with the homeless folks makes me proud to be an Olympian. As long as we live close... this will be our quick munchie spot. Deuces People often mention store, owners,

    Excellent service and educational experience. He enlightened me how to use my debit card more securely and certain predatory prepaid cards to avoid. All after having to wait for a mix-up with my funding. Top rate little shop.

    First time going in today and will not be back. It’s just oh so lovely walking in and being greeted with super loudly “WE DON’T TAKE EBT here”. Umm excuse me, I’m paying with a debit card? Great way to assume. Very poor and rude customer service. They also like to overcharge. I’ve never seen such rudeness from a business. Especially near this location.

    This is my ultimate favorite local grocery right downtown. It's so accessible and convenient. The owner is awesome and so friendly. It's a must if your downtown and need something quick.

    I have always liked the people working here and especially the Hispanic man who's not rude nor judgemental like the lady who works sometimes and I believe is the 0wners wife. The owner himself has been Also respectful and genuine and regardless I admire their demeanor in handling this community and treat homeless people with respect IF shown respect. You know it's nothing fun for anyone trying to keep up with the craziness plaguing the world these days right? Thanks for the commitment

    Honestly i love the store and the man who works there so giving one star breaks my heart but.... The lady who works throws a fit when real service dogs are brought into the store. My Large working dog with the vest, not one of the lil fake lap dogs. Refusing to sell to disabled ppl is gross. U should be ashamed of yourself. Next time u refuse to serve me im going to just walk out with it and toss cash on the floor.

    Misleading and unfair pricing practices here. Minimum charge to use credit card and then a credit card surcharge of over 5%

    Support the local establishments, this is one. If you're downtown in Olympia this place is a great place to purchase goods and sundries.

  • 5/5 Plane J. 1 year ago on Google
    The owners are cool here and very friendly , I feel funny if I don't go in at least once a day , I think including the two owners , husband and wife, I think there is just one more employee there and he is very nice, this is a convince store so you can expect prices to be higher, now the closest grocery store would be thriftway but the way things go thriftway is more expensive so get it at Capitol grocery , For a few months unfortunately they have not been able to accept EBT but are getting that worked out and should be able too by July!

    Closest store to my apt...the owners are friendly. I wish they were open a little later but I don't blame them. My only complaint is that they don't take EBT. But they have decent prices for cugs and the items they sell.
