About 2-3 people in it. It's a small store. You are paying for convenience (prices are a bit higher) because most other stores in the immediate area by foot are closed by this time / there's not a ton of competition. It's not the cleanest of stores and if you get anything that is not prepackaged, good luck to your gut because it doesn't scream the cleanest place ever. I got a few things - gatorade, candy, chips and it came out to 20 bucks. Staff is okay. Felt like they were staring me down. When I got to the registered they greeted me which is the bare minimum but felt like it was the best I was going to get. So I'll give them a half a star for that. Place is organized a bit weird. I could find items in the most random of places. Best to come here if you want one or two items.

Luckily, we found MA & PA Market on Sunday, October 9th around 6:45pm. We needed red bull! The roommate got a regular one and I got a sugarfree one at $2.29 each. I didn't look around much, but the market was a good size. I believe they have a good assortment of the usual offerings. It was a rainy Sunday, so not very busy. We were in and out quickly. Very convenient when walking around Southwest Portland.

It has your standard selection of cold drinks, candy bars, snacks, cigarettes and the like, but it also stocks what seems to be an extended selection of dry goods, a decent size frozen case, and some hot food like fried chicken, jo-jo's, etc. Not that I have any reason to rock that kind of food when I'm in this area of town chock full of good food, but it's always a nice option to have. They came through for me on ice and bottled water when I was hosting an event nearby, and the ATM is convenient (even though it charges $2.95). Convenience has its price.

Wow, what a dystopian landscape this turned out to be. Much like many other stores in downtown…read moreareas this one was on lockdown. I mean that with the nicest undertone that I can muster. But with it being the closest thing within walking distance from my hotel to grab snacks, drinks, and forgotten items, it was a welcomed sight. Inside, I am assuming because of high theft, everything is on lock down. At least on the first floor. I did not venture up to the second floor so I cannot speak to that. Well, most things are locked up, but there are a few things near the registers that are not locked up, but those are smaller items that are more convenient. What you need to know when you come here is that you should have your shopping list completed in at least your head so that you complete your shop as quickly as possible. Also for the mere fact that you will need an employee with you to unlock each individual area that you may need an item from. Checking out is a bit easier, mostly self serve kiosks to check out. However, if you need a bag as the number of items you got are more than you can carry, either bring a bag with you or try to find that employee again to get you a bag from behind the counter.

Certainly not at a conventional grocery store. They also sell all kinds of other international groceries like giant jars if dolmas, lavash, the best chocolate bars. I could go on and on. Walking the aisles makes me feel like I'm in a different country and it's fun. There's not much in the way of parking. Most people in the Pearl probably walk there. I know I do.

If Portland could get the transient problem under control this would be the best little downtown town grocery store. The customer service could use some work, but is understandable due to the fact they have to put up with a lot of B.S from the zombies that seem to be taking over PDX. I can definitely tell they are working on turning this place around. I can't wait to see the outcome. High 5 to the dude with tattoos working in the late afternoon.

This was the only store that carried an exceptional wine I had been hunting all of Greater Portland to find. I was going to give up and ask a friend in Manhattan if they could stop in my favorite store on Lexington Ave and then just pack it very well and ship it hoping it would survive the trip. Than I stopped in here and wistfully approached the register to ask about the wine I liked expecting to hear the typical, "I've never heard of it". To my surprise she not only knew of it she walked out from behind the counter and walked me over to it. Not only was she gracious and helpful but they knew what they were doing here and I have been back three more times to get gifts for people here. Excellent service and I highly recommend.

I usually grab a case of hard cider (the specific kind depends on my mood, but they have a decent amount of choices), Red Bull and/or other drinks, cigarettes, and some snacks, but they have everything you'd normally see or want in a corner store. I've been here a couple times for things like aspirin and sunscreen too. I've been here many times but only on my most recent visit did I get caught in a long line that went through the aisles. The cashier handled it really well though and was going as fast as he could to help everyone so it was really appreciated. Usually my trips are very quick though with no lines. It's clean, especially when compared to some other Plaid Pantry's I've been to, and the cashier has always been pleasant. No complaints, and nothing I could think of that I'd like to see change. I'll keep coming back.
