“Desperately needed air in a work truck tire. I was 20 miles north of Flyod, 20 miles south of Roanoke. With few options, a Quick Google search pointed me to Smith Grocery. I called, and to my surprise they had air.
Air hose was free to use and they let us use their tire gauge.
Happy to discover this place. Inside was cool with a full functioning ol' country store feel, antiques on the wall, hardware section, fresh produce, cold cuts, various groceries, made to order food, honey, maple syrup...to name a few.
Stop here, support local businesses, its amazing.”
“This is my favorite foodlion. I either go to this foodlion or to kroger in Christiansburg. I love both of these grocery stores, I can't pick a favorite so they are both my favorite.”
“Very nice store inside since the remolding due to the fire. They have a nice selection of just about anything that you can think of!!! Staff was also super nice and friendly.”
“We drove 967 miles to get to this store. There was a particularly bad blizzard at the time, and my heavily pregnant wife was getting concerned for our safety. So you can imagine our relief when we finally arrived at the store. However, it was closed, so we had to turn around and drive back home. We made the journey again the following week and, whilst there were no blizzards, the store was closed again! On our 3rd attempt (one small blizzard), you guessed it, the store was closed! On the journey home, there was another blizzard, and we inadvertently drove in the wrong direction for 500 miles before we realized our mistake. My wife then went into labour, and I was forced to deliver the baby by myself with just the tools I had in the trunk. Mainly a 52-piece socket set, a tile cutter, duct tape and a large adjustable wrench. All went surprisingly well. We've named her Blizzard. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we made a fourth visit last week and were delighted to find that the store was open. We were greeted very enthusiastically by a very friendly employee who made us feel very welcome. However, when I asked where they kept the foie gras, they laughed and said they'd never heard of the stuff. So my wife and I had no choice but to get back in the car and head home again, empty-handed.
It's not the 8700 miles we drove to finally get to this store that's disappointing. It's the fact that I discovered the store opposite my house sells foie gras and can also deliver to me free of charge.
Would I recommend this store? Yes.
Would I recommend this store for foie gras? Most certainly not!”
“LOVE THIS DOWN HOME COUNTRY FRIENDLY STORE. YOU CAN FIND THINGS IN THIS LITTLE STORE YOU CAN'T FIND ANYWHERE ELSE. AND, IF THEY DON'T HAVE IT MENTION IT TO THE OWNER BETCHA HE WILL DO HIS BEST TO GET IT FOR YOU. DOWN HOME FRIENDLY SERVICE WITH A NICE ,CLEAN ATMOSPHERE.”
“This is an above average Dollar General store. It is newer, so it is spacious, and well designed. However, it is a bit messy with the rolltainers in some parts of the store, with cluttered displays in a lot of the aisles. The staff were top notch, though.”
“This is the NICEST Dollar General I have ever been to! The items and products offered here are more on the level of Walmart and even HomeGoods stores! I wanted to keep this store as my hidden gem, but I know I can't keep it afloat alone. I do hope, if you visit this small town dollar store, that you appreciate all they have available as much as I do!!!”
“We all know you can get your basics at DG but I love to look around and find treasures. Like today I found a new womens razor for $1 less than my usual Venus brand. With 2 extra cartridges...score! :)”

“One of the best. We stopped by about 4:30 a.m. on Saturday 27 November 2021. The gentleman working was courteous and conscientious. The store was clean and organized...the bathrooms were clean and well stocked. The employee on shift was very friendly and took pride in his work. He deserves credit...I wish I had gotten his name. Stop by this place and let them know how good they are.”

“Surprised!!! Been hear many times, usually pretty slow, but not this time. 1800 Arrival for a 2000 appointment, was checked in and unloaded by 2000, yes the same day. Maybe turning over a new leaf.”
