The Island Store is a convenient mini-grocery store located on Captiva Island. It survived Hurricanes Ian and Milton. The store is clean, well-lit, and has a little bit of everything, both essential and non-essential. It holds a huge selection of items, including alcoholic beverages from its outlet liquor store, food, cleaning supplies, medical and First Aid products, fresh muffins, and a small fishing section. Shoppers can find milk, eggs, coffee, bread, beer, wine, produce, prepared items, and even gifts. There is also a sandwich shop and bakery on site. The staff are friendly, helpful, down-to-earth, and happy, working diligently to answer any questions. Prices are high and dramatically increased due to the island location, but the convenience is considered worth it. It is a great, handy store for forgotten items like foil or coffee, adult beverages, or a toothbrush. Visitors are advised to do major grocery shopping before crossing the bridge but can find most needs here. A note of caution is given for tall people regarding the door.
The Island Store is your go-to if you don't want to drive to Jerry's on Sanibel or over to the mainland. Prices are very high but if you need it, they probably have it. Good beer and liquor selection and the deli looked good.

What a great little store on the island. They have a great selection of spirits and a huge assortment of food items. The deli sandwiches were delicious and at a good price. I would definitely go back.
