Forks Outfitters Thriftway and Ace Hardware is a unique and helpful combined business. It connects three stores in one: a grocery store, an Ace Hardware, and an outfitters for hiking and souvenirs. The grocery side is well-stocked with plenty of options, great produce, and a praised deli and bakery featuring delicious chicken tenders, cookies, and Nanaimo bars. The Ace Hardware offers plenty of supplies and knowledgeable, helpful service. The outfitters section has good prices for hiking and sporting goods. The on-site coffee shop, The Grind, is noted for having the best coffee in town. The setup can be a little confusing as the connected stores are shopped separately, but the selection is good in all three. Overall, it is a very friendly place with decent prices, providing great convenience for a small town.
The place. Do not be confused. Best tackle selection on the peninsula. Also bait.
And an attached grocery store, and they all seem very nice- so much more human than the other side of the pond. :)

Great service. Very friendly, patient, and helpful. Plenty of supplies and decent prices - this coming from an urban dweller who is used to paying too much for stuff.
