Not a big BX but for the size of the base I'm sure it fits their needs. Cashiers were very friendly.

The store is great, staff is friendly but it is extremely SMALL! The rating should not diminish the store itself or the workers. It could be sooooo much better if it were bigger!!

Had a bit of a emergency when my key fob battery went out and the staff went out of their way to lend me a screwdriver scissors to open the battery package and locating the batteries in the store. Got me back on the road. Friendly staff and clean lovely BX
