“I was so happy to find this shop! I brought Cody 2 pairs of boots that I had condemned years ago into the depths of my closet. He made them like new again for me with fresh soles and a polish and I was just stunned with the results! I work construction and I can speak for everyone when I say that getting rid of an old pair of work boots to replace them with a new pair is a bummer. All that time wearing them and breaking them in to feel like a pair of sneakers just goes down the drain. Never again unless I have a catastrophic boot failure will I get rid of a pair again. Cody will get every pair of my boots from now on to bring them back to life. A true craftsman!”

“I love this store! It has become a daily shopping visit due to the close proximity to my place of work. They have great food clean bathrooms and employees that make you feel seen when you come in the store. Not a whole lot of places I can go that I get called by name, and the employees know my needs before I say them. Will continue coming back! And try the sausage egg and cheese waffle sandwich. You will thank me! Also you can call to order food fresh.. we get pizza all the time and they DELICIOUS”

“This is a small convenience store in the middle of town with gas pumps out front. It carries most of the convenience items you would find in any other store of it's kind. It's mostly visited by locals. They carry beer, soda, coffee, chips and basics. The remarkable memory of stopping in here was the kind, courteous, and friendly nature the employee treated us. I will be back again.”
