“Dear Minimart, the staff on the morning shift on October 18 is very friendly and has a very special German-style beard. The toilet is a bit hidden and not very clean, ask the staff for a pass. Selling a lot of beer, gas here is cheaper than in Seattle, there are many items for tourists and trail riders, but too many items have no price so I don't dare buy them. There are many local restaurants around. There's $1 coffee, too.”

“This place used to be atrocious, with some of the worst hot food and service I have ever seen, but upon my stopping in yesterday for some hot food after I got off my graveyard shift, I was pleasantly surprised by the best chicken tenders I have probably ever had being served at this place. I will be back this morning for more. Just wish I were able to grab the food I wanted instead of asking the guy behind the counter to grab it for me. Maybe I’ll try some other things, too.”
