I'm grateful to have a local, small store in our neighborhood. They carry all the needed staples. Johnny and Dane are always there with a smile and good conversation. The store is clean and welcoming.

Employees are very nice and accommodating they are always working really hard with a happy demeanor. Better than most of the Plaids I've been to. The place is always really clean. They seem to be short staffed but they get it done. Thanks for your service it's always a pleasure going in.

Very convenient if you work or live near the area, you don’t have to go down the hill for the other plaid pantry locations or 7/11. I can just walk over and it’s only 5 minutes away. The old, tall guy does creep me out, as mentioned in the other reviews. But haven’t had a problem so far
