Akins Foods is one of the two grocery stores in the town, known for its fair prices and great specials. The store has a decent selection of products, with a good and fresh produce section, though the frozen and dairy sections could use some improvement. Customers have reported finding expired or rotten food in the past, but recent improvements in the store's cleanliness and organization have been noted. The staff at Akins Foods are described as very friendly and helpful, with one customer praising the awesome service throughout the store. The prices are generally a bit high, and some customers wish the store offered a locals discount. The store's coupon app is considered obnoxious and not very useful. One customer was disappointed with the lack of apple in the store's apple fritters, despite being told by a staff member that they were full of apple. However, the donuts and fritters are generally considered a good value at $1.19 each. Overall, Akins Foods is seen as a decent option for grocery shopping in the town, with room for improvement in certain areas, but with a friendly and helpful staff.
I like stopping here when I make my trips into the states when I was on my way to Eden Valley Ranch for the Table Mountain Star Party when it was held there a few times.
