“One of my go to markets the essentials. Friendly and welcoming workers, very homely atmosphere. Decent prices, good selections. I actually prefer to get my fuel here also, sometimes cheaper and very much cleaner tanks since they revamped the pumps/tanks. Also they have non ethanol for all your small motors 'N' such. +++ very recommended to anyone passing through.”

“I don't know if Duner is still with your family, but among some of my most fond memories of my time stationed in Coos Bay were my interactions with your sweet dog, Duner. I was really struggling with depression one year and I went jogging along the jetty near the beach and Duner popped up and played with me by the water. What a wholesome dog you had, maybe you knew he had adventures like this but if you didn't, here is a beautiful peace to reminisce on. He must have remembered me from the fueling evolutions, but I never forget this day.”

“It's your average Fred Meyer. Nothing fancy. They were stocked with items that I needed so that is a positive. The employees were helpful when I asked for help. They did not approach me to see if I needed help which I would have preferred. Parking lot has plenty of parking if pulling a trailer. Don't forget to sign up for your FM card so that you can earn discounts on gas. This is always so helpful especially when driving far distances (like here from Vancouver, WA).”
