I still tend to go to Albertsons, or even take a "Sunday" drive over to Poulsbo, to Safeway or the Central Market more often instead of visiting this particular grocery store. However, when I'm in a pinch or being particularly lazy I will shop here. One must understand that it's a neighborhood store/shopping experience and you are going to pay higher prices for just about everything. That does not make me happy but I get it. They do a nice job of sending out flyers with deals and provide "money saving" coupons. The real big plus is some of the nicest people work there.

Staff is pretty good at trying to find what you're looking for. Maybe the books I wanted were too new, but I wasn't able to find what I was looking for. Very quiet inside and no one bothers you, so it's a nice time to browse through everything. Books are pretty decently priced. Most of the children's books I've never paid more than $5. As for the adult books when I browsed through, I saw them going for $7+ which isn't terrible at all. The price is written in pencil on the first page if you're looking for it.

From the owner: Bouquet was established to fill what we saw as a need in the downtown Kingston community. Building…read moreon the legacy of shop owners who have come before us, we aim to build a place where people can come and find beautiful things as well as a place to gather. We are a couple of Kingston transplants who lovingly call this incredible peninsula our home for many years now. The word Bouquet is meant to encompass an experience as it means literally "a clump of flowers or trees" and also refers to aroma as in the context of wine. It is through our senses we experience flowers, plants and engage with the natural world and Bouquet attempts to capture that in a way where people can take a piece of that home with them. Our aim is simply to be a place filled with beauty and a small example of what it is to reconnect with nature.

I was put off a bit by this because, although true, it was a very in your face thing to say to someone just entering the store. I was planning on looking for books to purchase but while walking back to that area I heard the employee/owner? Say the same thing two more times in a loud voice to everyone in the store. It was a total turn off. I don't like feeling pressure to buy something to appease a shop owner. If your prices are good and I see what I like I will almost always purchase something. I love supporting local stores but this behavior was over the top and we walked out and so did several other people. I'm sure there are some people who look around because they are bored while waiting for the ferry and while that may be irritating as a shop owner, it is part of business anywhere. If you stand by your product then let people come in and browse without giving a guilt trip to people. We left and went a few stores down and made a purchase at a cute boutique where the owner welcomed us and let us browse and make a purchase without saying anything other than pleasantries.

I suspected it was here, and as soon as I walked in, I recognized the grand wooden staircase in the center. Nowadays, the store features high end specialized grocery items, clothing, and decorative kitchen decor. There is a free bathroom and a cafe in the back with a few tables for seating next to very sunny windows. The only reason I am not giving five stars is that the cafe staff was a bit brusque, no smiles, although they surely served us efficiently.

They have a young woman who is usually at the window, and she is awesome. She always has a smile on her face and is willing to go the extra mile to make sure that you are well taken care of. The biggest issue that I have with this pharmacy is that, for some reason, lately, their drive up window has been closed during their open hours. This issue makes it very difficult for those who may have a disability to be able to easily get their medicine. Other than that, I trust the pharmacy. And because it's easy access and the folks seem to know what they're doing, I won't go anywhere else.

They have made several calls to clarify or transfer my prescriptions, several times over the past few years. I much prefer them to a supermarket across the street, which I found problematic. When I was about to leave the country for six months, my insurance company would not pay for any additional supply of medication. The pharmacist told me about a discount that is available. I had never heard of it before. I wound up paying $54 for the three months of medication that at full price cost many hundreds of $$. That is very good customer service.
