I called ahead to confirm they really closed at 6pm and when the associate answered he confirmed they did close at 6pm and asked me what I needed. I told him what I was rushing in for and he said yes we have it and I'll bring it up to the register for you to help. I got there at 6pm on the dot, they held the doors and had it rang up and ready for me to pay when I got there. Talk about over the top customer service. Thank You!

Their sincere customers service was well received and it made me want to spend my retirement money. I WILL drive all the way from the deep SE to patron this excellent business from now on. You need to make the trek to see their collection of supplies. It's well stocked with almost any tool you may need at home. And I know it's not just me...I dragged my hermit hippie neighbor in to shop for bird seed and she ended up with the same thought! As we dove home with her six bags of bird seed and my new grass seed...We concur--Covid-19 did not kill EVERYTHING. Good customer service is still alive and well in the Happy Valley Ace Hardware.

I was a little confused how to get in so we walked in to the restaurant (The Hive Social) and asked. They let us to the secret stair case and said we'd need to figure out the rest for ourselves. And we did. The portrait swung open and we discovered the coolest bar! The ambiance was very cozy and perfect for our date night. Our server was very friendly and made some suggestions when asked. We ordered a couple rounds of drinks and several small plates to share. They even staggered our apps to not overwhelm our cozy table. Everything was delicious. Well worth the drive and we will be back for sure (and probably bring friends)!

The footprint of the store isn't a big box store but if you have, or want to build an urban farm and garden this is the place to go. They have everything including the kitchen sink. I've never met a more knowledgeable hardware man. I bought two 8x2x2 Tarter stock tanks for the best price ever. His prices beat all the big box stores. He had all the T-posts I needed for my wine grapes including 8+ foot posts which are difficult to find. Anyway thanks Wichita Hardware enough said. He's got my business for life.
