I stopped in to the store the other day, and saw the recent renovations and new addition that they recently completed.
What used to be an excellent, little general store with loads of useful items and a decent assortment of available food from the grill, has been transformed in to a hipster hangout restaurant. You can no longer get a quick cheeseburger and other accoutrements, but rather you have to sit down and order as though you were in a civilized part of the world. Looking for a cup of coffee?
