“I come here usually once a week or more at times, I come for fried chicken. It's on my way home from work. So walk in grab what you need and you're on your way. Parking sucks at times there's only a few stalls in from of the store and sometimes there ask taken, then you need to go to the back of store and get hit up by creeps asking for money. So If there's no parking in front I won't stop here. You can pump has here to. Find many things inside cold beer, soda it's like a little convenience store. Staff are nice and attentive.”

“I will give these guys credit. I am sure they are being overwhelmed by all the prescriptions since food land pharmacy closed and the next competent pharmacy is located in kahului. They have done a pretty good job with my prescriptions and I like the fact that I can enroll in the auto refill option for meds I have. The store is also usually well lit and pretty clean. The employees are usually pretty friendly. The only thing that drives me nuts is the constant beeping from one of there drink coolers. If I wasn't on medication already the beeping is enough to put me on some. I don't know how the poor staff puts up with it. Ok well for now that's pretty much the whole picture. Oh and the prices are ok on most of the stuff especially if it saves you a trip down the hill. Especially with the price of gas.”
