I liked its local character, friendly service, and good selection of basic groceries and snacks.

Maybe that is why NO PRICES are listed, or if they are, they are outdated. Just get ready for the shock and awe when you go to checkout.

It is a well lit store. Tons of windows. But it is a bit smaller than some 7-Elevens I have been in. That equates to less room and less selection. Don't get that mixed up with not having the essential 7-Eleven items. Just know that you may not be grabbing a familiar item you are used to at other locations. I came in here, for the first time, and went straight to the coolers. I had to stand in front of them, while dodging other customers, to find the items I wanted. Completely different setup so it took me a bit more time to find what I wanted. Then the registers take a bit longer since it is a well used spot. And on the way out, you have to dodge the many people outside to get back to your day.

Mostly stocked with gourmet snacks and light lunches, there is also a to-go / delivery ($3 charge) menu to order different courses from the Presidents Sports Bar attached to the Renaissance Hotel. It's well stocked with random items like homemade cookies and box cookies to house salads and sandwiches ( and even cold desserts like tiramisu and mini bananas fosters. There is a candy bucket tree with single candies in the clear buckets. They have a small coffee bar with carafe coffee and teas. You can also buy fruit individually and croissants. They have a freezer stocked with gelato cups, ice cream bars, etc. The items are reasonably priced, but certain bagged items like those same cookies ( Mexican hot chocolate) that they sell at Dolcezza can run up to $6. It's definitely a must try for the late afternoon or late night snacker. They are open until Midnight.

Talking to the friendly clerk, it sounded like the market gets quite busy during lunch time. I didn't try any of the food, but it looked pretty good. They also carry some local chocolates - I did try the wine truffles which the clerk recommended. They were $6 for four individually wrapped treats. The truffles satisfied my craving for sweets perfectly and I thought were reasonably priced. I would come back here if I were looking for a convenient snack and it were too miserable too go outside. The service was good here, but I'm taking off a star because the prices are not clearly marked and I had to ask about quite a few items.
