“I love this store and the new ownership.and It offers a variety of most things that you would need of a convenience store but I have to give the store a rating of one star because the phone number that they have listed doesn't seem to work anymore. therefore I wouldn't recommend the store to anyone that doesn't live within Glenmora city limits. I live about 10 minutes out of town and since I can't call them and order a pizza I might as well just call hineston leebos and order one there because no one wants to have to come into the store, order a pizza, wait for it, then drive 10 minutes back home. now if their phone was to start working again I would probably give this store five stars bc it's one of my favorites in the area.”
