Choice Deli & Grocery is a neighborhood hidden gem, operating as a unique hybrid of a dive bar, convenience store, and takeout joint. It is known for its cool ambiance, with both patio and inside seating, and a very affordable selection. The staff is consistently described as friendly, kind, and courteous, great with customers and even dogs. It is a handy stop with late hours, featuring a vast beer selection including 30 Northwest microbrews on tap and walls filled with refrigerated beer, alongside an excellent snack collection. The food is generally good, with specific praise for the superb teriyaki chicken and shrimp stir fry, noted for being tasty with just the right saltiness and served with nicely steamed rice. The French fries are noted as nice and crispy. It is a one-stop shop offering positive interactions, coziness, and conversation, making it a highly recommended spot not to be missed.

Staff is always kind, the food they serve is good and the hours they stay open until are handy, I’m a night owl so it’s nice to know I can stop by in the later hours of the night and grab a drink or snack
