The Lone Butte General Store is a convenient and friendly neighborhood stop in the rural Lone Butte, Cerrillos, and Madrid area. As the only store closest for many, it saves a 30-minute drive to town. It offers a variety of different foods, drinks, condiments, and everyday stuff like eggs, milk, bread, and cheese, plus hot food and gas. The store is small and can feel crowded. It is a family-run business, owned and operated by the same family for almost 30 years, and is beloved by the local community. Staff are always friendly, courteous, and professional. The store provides a real feel of neighborhood. While some note the prices are a little pricey or higher than average, this is understood as necessary for a small business to make a profit and remain open in an area that relies heavily upon it. It is a very helpful and convenient place to have out here.
A lot more store than I realized from the outside, they carry more staples than a convenience store. Single restrooms were reasonably clean. Convenient stop.

I've been going to the store for the longest time. Always clean and nice gas prices. The older gentleman has been so kind to me. The younger guy isn't as nice. Ever since I became an Officer, he seems so intimidated by me. Just not nice like the older gentleman.
