Inside you'll find a large iced down beer trough with some gambling kiosks off to the side. You'll find milk, eggs, ice cream, vape products and even thermal wear.

It's also a pretty small store, less than half the size of most convenient stores. If you're coming here for craft beer, you're pretty much out of luck and they don't even seem to have much in the way of singles. They do at least carry Galveston Island Brewing beers and New Belgium. They do have a wine selection, but the prices are way out of line, even more expensive than convenience stores. These high prices may be due to its location near the beach and hotels. I'll give them credit for a decent liquor selection, including some single malt scotches, but once again the prices are fairly high. They also carry some Jell-O shots, cigarettes, cold drinks, and some mixers. If you're looking for a better selection of beer and wine at much better prices, you're better off going to the Kroger down the street. Some helpful information in the images below.

The new owner made me cry when I went in and saw a piece from my Uncle's store with an original picture framed in the cabinet. He asked I was OK and I told the the memories of the store and where everything was way back when. He was delightful, customer friendly and his customers are like family to him. He has a clean store, well stock shelves and takes pride of his store. I wanted to buy a Zero Sugar Soda drink and a water. He wouldn't let me pay. So, I bought a few Lottery tickets (I never do), but if I won, he would too. It was the least I could do to thank him. Of course, we stop in all the time now. I am glad he is the owner. My Uncle would have been pleased.

Located on the island of Bolivar near Crystal Beach, the store is vintage turquoise. We stopped by to purchase a beach parking pass because you can actually drive on the island beaches. The inside is not fancy, no big box store displays. The lady behind the counter was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. She told us how and where to look for sharks teeth on the beach. They sell iced down beer and other beverages perfect for a hot day in Texas. They also are set up with coffee and fountain drinks. We found sand toys and a small amount of fishing gear. There was a limited selection of grocery essentials. And, of course, snack foods. Outside, they sell Shamrock gas. The only rest rooms were a port a potty outside. Oh my! But I still give them 5 stars because they are friendly, had what I needed and took me back to my childhood. A definite oasis near the beach.
