The employee I was in contact with made me feel rushed and was not friendly in any way at all. I only had one question and she was pretty rude when she answered. She was also the cashier when I went to check out and was so rushed, and rude then as well. I'm so disappointed. I understand that people go through things in life, and hoping that she is OK.... However, when you work retail and customer service, you're one and only job is to help the customers and be friendly. I am hoping and praying this is the one and only time I experience this.

Still new to the area, and had driven past this little place next to the tracks a bazillion times, so when the wife was short of eggs for baking, I figured this was the closest place to check on a Sunday morning.

Decor is country store with everything from animal mounts to old WWII relics and metal signs. And shopping? Plenty of staples, but not a big selection. Even has hot coffee and places to sit to drink it. And sweet people, too! Will add more later... after a few visits. In the mean time, if you're in the area... stop by!

Cluttered windows that take away from the look and feel of the business 2. Cluttered layout of shelving and stock, making the store feel claustrophobic 3.

It's where I get my kimchee, fish cake, and nori (seaweed). Downer: prices tend to be too high! I'll keep shopping here, though.

A bright, cheery supermarket full of exciting and interesting products along with the staples, now…read morebeautifully organized and much more inviting after a stunning remodel that opened up tremendous space in front. I learned this when I had to start shopping here again, after a three-year personal boycott, because I lost my car and could no longer get to Safeway. Why the boycott? Because of a thing that happened to my husband and left an awful taste in my mouth: While shopping at Fuller's in 2022, Christopher poured himself a fountain drink and, on his way to the register, took a sip. It tasted weird. Standing in line, he checked twice more, and it tasted strangely like ammonia. When he asked the cashier's permission not to buy it, the young man said, "Sure!" and relieved him of the poisonous-tasting beverage. That was the normal part. Two weeks later, when Chris was leaving Fuller's with some purchases, a very young security guard (maybe 18) stopped him in the parking lot and showed him three surveillance photos, printed on three separate pages: one for each of the three sips Chris had taken from his unsavory drink. He asked Christopher to come back inside, under threat of calling police. After leading my husband back into the store and upstairs, followed by another employee to keep him from bolting, the guard admonished him for having assumed, two weeks earlier, that his cashier had the authority to let him leave without paying for his drink. The correct procedure, he said, would have been for Chris to buy the drink before taking Sip One; then, if he found it displeasing, he could return it for a refund--presumably from the same cashier who'd abused his authority by allowing Chris to avoid the purchase entirely. Because of my husband's ill-placed faith in the right of that cashier to act efficiently instead of insanely (as in the guard's scenario), releasing him from obligation to buy an inferior product, Chris had to sign a form acknowledging that he was banned for stealing from Fuller's Shop'n Kart--not for one or two years, but ninety-nine. I've waited three years to write this review, partly because I feel sick and exhausted to think about it and partly because it sounds so outrageous that I don't see how anyone will believe it. Instead, I've avoided shopping here until it recently became impossible. Now that I'm forced to return, I spend every shopping trip feeling torn between, on the one hand, loving the store and the many wonderful things it carries, and, on the other, hating myself for supporting a business that will continue exacting revenge over three unpaid sips of a foul beverage for several decades after my husband is dead.

Awesome. Such a different shopping experience. Grocery Outlet style with a focus on ethnic foods…read more My wife and I happened to be in the area. I love hot sauce. I Googled "Hot sauce Centralia". This was the only place that showed up with legitimate pictures of a healthy hot sauce shelf. I think I had to go to 2 or 3 aisles to find all of them. Mexican pastries, Japanese sauces you won't find at Safeway, just an awesome selection. They even had a tent outside with massively out of season items. I saw a house painting kit, with a roller and VHS tape. I almost bought it out of nostalgia. Wonderful store, happy employees. Thank you for being here.

Parking…read morewas easy to find since the store is located near a few other businesses, so that was already a plus before even stepping inside. I came here to Ben Thanh with a specific mission: finding shrimp paste that I couldn't track down at another oriental market down the street. Thankfully, they had exactly what I was looking for, which immediately earned them some points in my book. It's always a relief when a place carries those harder-to-find items. While browsing the aisles, I was pleasantly surprised to spot a few other things I'd like to come back for in the future, like different varieties of rice and Chinese sausages. One thing that really caught me off guard was that they sold baklava here! I decided to give it a try and, honestly, it tasted pretty good. I didn't do a full grocery haul this time, so I can't really comment on how their prices compare, but for convenience alone it's a great little shop to have nearby. Since I live fairly close in Lacey, I can definitely see myself stopping by again to check out more of their selection. There wasn't really a line; the cashier spoke both English and Vietnamese, was polite, welcoming enough, and quick to ring me up. Overall, a nice little market that came through when I needed it.

Caters very well to southeast Asian cuisines, notably Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai. I quickly grabbed a big jar of kimchi from the cooler, a bag of jasmine rice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, and of course dehydrated shitake mushrooms. This allows you to get started with a bare bones Asian meal of rice with sides. Anyway I was well pleased with the prices. I didn't have to sift through massive choice like at H Mart, and I could get shopping done quick!

Problem is, after 1000 reviews, it's not also easy to recall an experience, but this is what I recall about this place. The service wasn't friendly. Although I wouldn't go as far to call it rude, but the guy did act like our business was interrupting him. They had a homemade salsa that was better than anything you would buy in a retail store. They also sold something I can recall the name of, but it was chicken fat and my dog loved it I put it in a pot with water and simmered it into a broth and she was in doggy heaven. I also bought a pack of hot links that were probably closer to a spicy chorizo than traditional hot link. Since the business appeared to my Mexican/Latino, that just makes sense. Ive been back to Olympia and honestly regretted forgetting about this place, because my dog really loved the chicken fat and I haven't seen anyone local to me that sells it. Pricing here was also fair. Nothing was cheap, but nothing was overprice either. Short of the sour attitude, it would have been a win, 4 star for sure.

And…read morethe lady kept twisting the bag in the ice, which should've been like my first warning, like if that was the case and you weren't confident that they were good. I would've taken the muscles cause I told you I would've. But fast-forward to her , handing me a bag of fresh clams, which I then spent $30 on and proceeded to take them home to cook them. Immediately. As one does with fresh clams. I pulled out probably 10 or 15 that we're open And then when I cook them per protocol like I have in the past I got a strong metallic discussing taste when I ate it the first two It would be nice to get a refund for this. I might call tomorrow because that's bullshit like you don't sell somebody expired food just because you need to get it off the shelf and make a penny off of it and I was considering buying my food from here cause by local right it's the Washington Way but Stuart's meats is where I will stay because they haven't tried to kill me yet Let me all remind you that if you eat expired or bad clams, you can get pseudomonas which is a deadly bacteria or salmonella. I'm only speaking because I'm a physician. And you could die from that So anyway, Gibson's custom meets you guys are rude
