Grew up in the neighborhood and this is a great place for your ideal needs when you can't make it to the actual grocery store. They carry a variety of drinks and snacks from all over the world. Anything from frozen to fresh food. Household cleaning supplies to candles for a birthday cake. The owner is really down to earth, nice and the service is great. Being a newer store to the area I can only see this place getting better over time. Check it out.

With good stock and fair prices, this place has become my first stop after work. It has a wide selection of soft drinks and chips. There are essential items like milk and eggs and meat products, plus a random assortment of special treats you can't find most places, like Greek yogurt drinks, hummus, and tiramisu. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you're heading to work or school, they'll put on a fresh pot of coffee. The owner will go out of his way to get most things you ask for and supply them in the store. Since coming to the neighborhood, they have worked to fill their customers' needs while keeping a clean, orderly place. And lest I forget, you can also pick up something for the houseguests: dog and cat food are available. Don't be fooled by the dark exterior--the shop is open from early morning to early evening. They are located at the corner of Farwell & Clark, across from the library.

Made this store my number one to go to for all my first necessities and not only. They are a little far from my house but it doesn’t stop me to drive over there cause I know I will always find all the items I need that most convenience store don’t have. Definitely a step up from the regular local stores, totally the next level. Moreover, the store is ALWAYS clean that makes your shopping even more enjoyable.
A nice additional to the neighborhood. This place is a perfect mix between a corner store and a mini grocery store. Their offerings ranges from sugary munchies to fresh produces to cleaning supplies and I’m sure there’s more. Be sure to check out this place because I’m sure this place got what you need or are craving for.
