Review from DineoutGal A.

A quirky new convenience store in the Exchange that sells individually packaged toilet paper, butter, mayo, onions, potatoes, spam, candy/chocolate, bread...etc. The venue is a little sparse in items provided considering the amount of space available. But it's a neat concept for residents and workers in the area if they need to pick up an item or two. Sandwiches from Tallest Poppy are sold there, usually from mid-week on. The place has an old school candy store vibe with it's vintage counter and set up. Chat it up with Andrew - he is an interesting cat. Start a conversation with him about the store or anything else - I'll guarantee you'll be entertained.
The prices are okay, I mean convenience stores in general aren't going to provide you the best price since they can't sell in volume to make up for lower prices compared to a Superstore. But they are there for your convenience so the markup is justifiable! 500 ml of sour cream was $2.29 and a brick of butter was $5.99 and a small bottle of canola oil sold for about $5.99.
I think everyone needs to support places like this in our downtown to encourage more small businesses to open up in that area. So buy something next time you're there!
