This is my go-to store. The staff and checkers are so pleasant and always brighten my day after just a short 15-20 second bout of small talk while checking out :)

Nice. Fully stocked grocery store with friendly staff. Lots of parking. Mask are optional. There is a new clerk - she is wonderful and very courteous and helpful. So yes, I will get her name and mention her. But it has changed for the better.

Clean & organized and has an excellent selection of gluten free items. I love this store. It's the better option in all of the chain. I would rather go here than the one that is 2 miles from my home.

Solid store, fairly decent selection. Not too crowded at any given moment so. wonderful spot to stop in and get out in a relatively quick amount of time. The produce can be hit or miss but generally more than gets the job done.
