“This gas station and party store is the best in town. They have everything you need for one quick stop. They have the biggest selection of beer, wine, and liquor in town. They have over 20+ doors of just chilled beer and wine and even have a walk-in cooler with more beer. They have an amazing selection of liquor as well, which includes: bourbons, whiskies, tequila, rum, liqueurs, schnapps, gin, cognac, and more and carry all sizes from shots (50 ml) to half gallons (1.75L). They also have a huge selection of non-alcoholic drinks as well. They have so many options for energy drinks, pop, juices, water, and more. Truly remarkable. They also have so many groceries too like chips, pretzels, candy, chocolate, jerky, sandwiches, and more. Even groceries like laundry detergent and paper towels and medicine. My favorite part of this store is also the friendly staff and owners. They treat everybody with so much care and respect and truly appreciate the customers who walk in the door. They are the best. They also support local businesses in the community as they carry Oddside, Long Road, and Grand Armory (which are all Grand Haven businesses) brands. They treat everyone like family and I love coming here.”
