This is what a neighborhood convenience store should be, and Jimmy is a huge part of what makes it…read moresuch a great store. It has an old school, mom and pop store feel where the person behind the counter actually knows the people who come in, they talk to you, jokes around with you, and pay attention to what customers need. I knew that Jimmy had dog food, so I asked him if getting chicken feed was an option. He looked into it, ordered it, and then made sure to let me know when it came in. If customers suggest something they'd like to see stocked, he listens. If he can get it, he'll try. If he can't, he'll tell you that too. Jimmy cares about his employees, his customers, and the store itself. He treats people with respect regardless of who walks through the door, but he also has rules and boundaries and enforces them. He works hard to keep the store clean, safe, and welcoming, and he doesn't tolerate people causing problems for his employees or customers. At the same time, he's usually laughing, joking, and cutting up with somebody. He creates an environment where people can have fun and feel welcome while still making it very clear that everyone is expected to behave and respect the store and the people in it. The store is small and packed with merchandise, but that's because they fit an impressive amount into a little store. You can grab coffee in the morning, drinks, snacks, household basics, and random things you didn't know you needed without having to make an entire trip to Walmart. For those of us who live nearby, being able to run around the corner instead of driving into town is worth it. I appreciate that the Mini Mart feels like part of the community. They support local people, listen to their customers, remember what people ask for, and try to make the store better with the resources and space they have. Jimmy has dealt with plenty of challenges running a small business, but he continues putting time, money, and effort back into his store and into the people who come through it. You can tell he takes pride in what he's built. This is NOT a corporate convenience store. It's a small, locally run store where you're treated like an actual person instead of a transaction.

But like I said I just got gas and never set foot inside store. The card reader on the pump works and the pump...pumps gas, and the printer printed my receipt. So that earned them three stars as nothing else to rate them on.

The food at the deli was great, the service less so. Despite placing an order online to avoid…read morewaiting in line, when we arrived at 3:30 (when our food was supposed to be ready, as we'd placed our order around 45 minutes earlier), the food wasn't ready. Our food (four subs) was STILL not ready for another 30 minutes. There was a steady line of in person customers, of course, but they had three workers actively making subs, and all three of them appeared to be prioritizing the in-person line. Only sporadically did they work on our online order, even though they were already behind on our order & those in line had only just arrived. Three other customers who had placed online orders arrived while we were waiting and were still waiting when we left. We finally got our last sub just as they finished serving their last customer in line. Again, this was 30 minutes after we had arrived, 30 minutes after our food was supposed to be ready, and fully an hour and 15 minutes past when our order had been originally placed. This was quite frustrating. I appreciate that the workers appeared to be doing their best, and they did apologize for the wait, which I also appreciate. But I could have gotten my food within 15 minutes if I had just gotten in line with everyone else. I'm not sure what the point is of having online ordering available, if the food isn't going to be ready when promised and the online orders are going to be so deprioritized compared to the in-person orders. Either they need to change their "ready by" times or they need to change their workflow. I will say, the sandwich, which was a vegan turkey situation, was absolutely delicious. I just wish I hadn't had to stand for 30 minutes and watch them make food for other people when our order had already been pending for longer than anyone in line.

What surprised me the most was that it was a big cake, not just a cupcake. Picked up some peach ice tea which was great. The cashier man was nice but didn't take the time to help me figure out the app. I finally figured it out so I could pay for my items. New to this app thing. Didn't know I would not get a receipt. He said it would be emailed but I asked for it and he gave it to me.

When we went in, we saw a lady at the front counter and a few aisles with various products. The shelves weren't bursting and some shelves seemed empty (we did go on a weeknight, around the time they were closing), but they did have a good variety of different items. It was easy enough to find what we were looking for and still get through the store to see what they had in stock. The store is organized and pretty clean. The lady at the front was also friendly. Overall, not a bad store. I would recommend stopping by to see if they have what you need.
