Their selection is fantastic, with everything from everyday staples to some really interesting and unique finds I haven't seen elsewhere. What really sets Kim's Mart apart, though, is the service. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They're always happy to offer recommendations and answer any questions you have. The prices are competitive, and the store is always clean and well-organized. Whether I'm grabbing a quick bottle of wine for dinner or stocking up for a party, Kim's Mart is my go-to liquor store.

“I stopped here while on my way home and was filling up my car. There was a guy at the pump next to me doing what looked to be martial arts. Then he kick flipped off the pole and continued waving his arms around. My friend and I were watching him as he took the nozzle off the pump, pays, chooses a grade of fuel, and splashes it in his mouth. He spits it out, chooses another grade, and starts guzzling it… After he decided he was done mouth washing with fuel, and he hadn’t even gassed up his car yet, he sped off. The employees were also incredibly shaken at what we witnessed. Great and kind employees though, clean store, four stars”

However, 5 mins before closing, I was greeted, the prescription processed, and I left 7 mins later. They stayed open to help me.

“Ladies inside are FANTASTIC. I did have a problem with the guy, explained 3x what I needed, he just kept a puzzled look on his face, and took out the empty tank, when I needed the full tank carried to the other side. I speak French and Spanish, but I knew that wouldn't help. He was yes mam on everything I said, but didn't quite process it. I'm betting the older of the 2 ladies was the manager! Very accommodating √”
