It's seems Country Stores have to wear many hats, this store is half way between civilization and…read moreno where, if I'd have to guess I'd say this place is about ten or twelve miles from a Publix or a Walmart, business that are used to gauge remoteness in this part of the world. This place reminds me of an oasis and it seems everyone needs something and the owners are making every effort to accommodate them all. The first thing that came to mind when I pulled in here was diversification and after speaking with the young women who was running the register they continues to evolve, after all if you still have room to grow and there are still other services that you can offer expand, expand, expand. Currently the offerings include; beer and ice, some wines and mixers, grocery staples, premium gas and AV fuel (airboats rule here), bait and tackle, marine supplies including lube, oil, lights, wiring, seat cushions, hitches and tires, hardware, pipe fittings, pvc, nuts and bolts, a deli, tobacco, charcoal, propane and air. Coming soon: a bar and grill with an emphasis on bar I think she actually said "pub", a new bait shop - I'd bet they take request so if it's possible that they don't have something and you're a regular I'm sure it's just a matter of time. It goes without saying but I have to mention, the staff is super friendly and if you can't find it they can help you put you hands on it. If there's one thing that may sting a little is the prices, this is somewhat justified being it's such a remote location so I'm sure there's an up charge on deliveries along with no competition - I like these kind of places and the roadside sign is so cool too...

BEST ZINGERS AROUND!! My boyfriend and I were staying with family near by and stopped into the…read morestore for some boat snacks. Not only did they have my favorite hostess snack ZINGERS, but they have a great variety of craft beer, wine and other snacks. Their pre made sandwiches tasted just as fresh as if you got them in the deli. The owners Steve and Leila (sp?) are just as nice and welcoming as can be. They also own the cabins across from the store which are always clean and cozy and they just opened a little bar right behind the store. You can't go wrong by paying them a visit!

I am honored to commemorate my 100th review by reviewing Beverage Castle. BC, as I will hereafter…read morelovingly refer to it, was brought to my attention by a dear friend of mine who grew up in the Auburndale area. What makes BC so special is not that it is a drive thru convenience store, complete with beer and cigarettes, but that is a drive thru convenience store...in the shape of a castle. While this may not seem like much to most people, this Castle of Convenience is a symbol. A symbol of why I love America. Where else on the planet can you drive into a European fortress and buy your Molson Ice and Newports? Give up? Nowhere. Because there is only one Beverage Castle... and it's located in America.

The staff were amazing, informative and customer attentive. The wife got a pumpkin chai tea and absolutely loved it. I got a Kratom tea Red and honestly it is the best one I have ever had. No back taste that makes you curl smooth and tasty!!! After chatting with the staff and being informed of all the weekly events they have going on this may become one of our... We out the house without the kids places to go. They have seating everywhere even outside for smokers. The environment is very clean and inviting. Drink to coat ratio is on par for teas, but the taste is higher than most. For the kratom it was a great price 24oz for 14$ is really getting your monies worth!!! We will definitely be coming back. AS ALWAYS TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!!!!

I've always driven by this place but never thought to stop in until I saw their menu on DoorDash. I…read morefinally went in one night and I'm so glad I did. Now I regularly come here. They have a great drink selection including coffee, tea, Kratom, kava, and beers. It's such a chill spot to just have a drink and relax and vape if you're into that. It's not smoky and people aren't blowing ridiculous amounts of vape smoke. As well as being a cool place to hang out and relax, they have trivia every Wednesday at 7. They have a huge selection of vapes and flavors. Service is always on point.

Let's set the record straight from the start - this is a deep discount grocery store. It isn't…read morePublix, Winn Dixie, WalMart or even Piggly Wiggly. Nope, this is a store in a run-down strip mall that specializes in selling close-to or out-of-date items. Looking for fancy shelving and floors so clean you can eat off them? Go elsewhere. It's obvious this has been at least a couple of other stores long before this company showed up. What you get is a neatly stacked store with items that seem to vary depending upon what they get at any given time. Buy when you see it or possibly lose out. Is some of it outdated? You betcha. However, there is a catch with those manufacturer dates - they are made up. I recently discovered there are very little federal or state regulations concerning those dates; however, manufacturers know you'll ditch something out of fear even if the can or product still looks good. Today I found RC sugar-free cola, 12 pack cans, for $2. In case you're wondering, Walmart has them on "sale" for $5.88. Tastes the same but now I can get 36 cans instead of 12. And how about the Clorox misting spray refill at $1? It sells for $6.78 at Walmart. Now I can get nearly 7 for the price of 1. This list goes on. Since I buy only those items in cans or sealed bottles, I can't comment on the meats, bagged crackers and bread; however, if you consume those perishable items quickly you should be okay. In fact, I have a friend who buys his meats here and cooks them on the grill the same day. He loves the place for the cheap pricing. Staff is attentive and friendly, an oddity given the low bucks nature of the store, but don't let the looks of the store bother you. Like I stated, if you're a neat freak, go elsewhere. As you might imagine, they don't take coupons but they do accept credit cards. If you want deals galore, come here and come often!
