I was incredibly thankful this general store was open early and connected to the Starbucks! We woke up one morning and it was cold, rainy and windy! 40 degrees and with the wind, it felt like 22 degrees! We packed some cold weather clothes, but not a lot. I definitely wanted a beanie to help with the wind chill, and so did my daughters. Visited this store while my daughters stayed in line at Starbucks. Was able to find a beanie for each of us. There were a lot of cute items available for purchase, including some Snoopy items! Loved the self-checkout option as well. Prices are a little bit higher than you might expect. Super convenient though, if you ever find yourself in a pinch for something in this area. read more

5 stars for the water filling station! Thank you! (Yes prices are high but it's right outside GCNP...what do you expect?) read more

I'm rating this store 2 stars because I'll give it credit. It has a lot of stuff and it was fairly well stocked. My issue with it is that it was EXTRAORDINARILY expensive. The prices are unacceptably high. Such as $11 for a pack of 10 slices of cheddar cheese, $6ish dollars for a gallon of milk, $6ish dollars for a jar of Skippy Peanut Butter... etc.... We spent $74 on 1 1/2 paper bags of groceries. Later in our trip, we went to Walmart and bought 4-5 bags of stuff for $50... Skippy Peanut Butter and milk at the least are half the price, and the same brand of cheese is $4ish dollars at Walmart. Just incomparable prices... If coming from Las Vegas, there is a Walmart on the way, so I suggest you stop there and plan accordingly. If coming from anywhere else, I'd suggest, again, planning accordingly. read more

Tusayan General Store - Grocery Near Me - Tusayan, Arizona

It's got something for almost everyone and any need. Very well stocked store and quite large, has a mix of groceries/personal hygiene/ gift items. You can find your daily needs here and while price gouged, definitely not as bad as most stores around here. My advice would be to bring everything (including general grocery items like bread/snacks/water) yourself but if you forgot something you will likely find it here. A plus is that if you're staying at Yavapai lodge it is RIGHT there, so very convenient. read more

This one is the closest to the South Rim entrance of the grand canyon , on our way back we stopped at the restaurant next door to grab a pizza that's when I spotted this general store. It's a good size and has many essentials but we were looking for souvenirs, they have some magnets , cute soft toys a few Grand Canyon merchandise apparel like tshirts for $14.99 My little one got the Smokey bear for $29.99 They also had hats, coffee mugs etc I didn't get a chance to check the other side that has the essentials but it looked well stocked. Cheers! read more

Our annual trip to Williams for the Polar Express is never complete without a trip to the Grand Canyon. Most times, we have zipped past this small town enclave of fast food joints and gas stations, satisfied to survive for another hour off whatever food and drinks we packed for the day back at the hotel. But on our last trip through, we couldn't help but stop for a caffeine boost at the local Starbucks, and this market was right next door, so... when in Rome.... And all thing considered, I was glad we stopped (other than you know, coffee.) The store seems to be focused on beer and alcohol, which isn't really my bag, baby-- especially with three kids in tow. Take-home growlers of beer, filled in store from tapped kegs is an interesting insurance rider (guessing, here). They also have a pretty good selection of Grand Canyon-related t shirts, gifts, books, and that borderline-offensive Native American art like "dream catchers" and kokopelli-painted trinkets (aside: Kokopelli is a fertility deity, so I sorta SMH when I see it used as a decoration). Candy and dairy and snacks and jerky and a few other odds and ends round out the store. I'm guessing this is not your place to do weekly shopping, but for the casual visitor, you'll find something you want or maybe something you need. Parking lot exit probably will direct you to the town roundabout, so keep your head up and pay attention. They don't have stoplights, and probably don't take American Express. read more

Tusayan General Store - Grocery Near Me - Tusayan, Arizona

They don't price-gauge as bad as I thought they would, like the surrounding restaurants and shops. Small place, with one side a souvenir shop and the other was a regular market. You can get camping supplies, ice cream, alcohol, fresh bread and produce. I wanted a bottle of wine for the hotel room and was able to find a couple reasonable bottles to my liking. We also picked up ice cream and something for breakfast before we got back on the road. Cashier was nice enough but wary. Easy to find on the main drag, lots of parking and even a Starbucks window - however we never saw it open. read more

Today, I learned the true meaning of "convenience" store. This place has everything from souvenirs, beer, wine, snacks, and even fresh produce. The high price of gifts and souvenirs were expected. The price hike on food was unbelievable, for example, a cup of noodles was $1.50, loaf of bread was $4-$6. Seem prices are doubled on everything - I guess that is price of convenience. However, the gift and souvenir section had vast selection of shirts, magnets, jewelry, hot sauce, postcards, and many more. My advice is to shop at flagstaff for snacks and other essentials before heading to the Grand Canyon area. read more

Super fun general store that is full of souvenir type stuff along with any food or staple items that you may have forgotten. Just keep in mind you will pay a premium for the convenience of items being right there. The souvenir items ranged from cheaper bundle deals to more expensive quality items. There is something for everyone. There is also a deli attached but they are only open at breakfast and lunch, so I didn't get a chance to try it. All in all it was a great little store. read more

Never thought I would leave a review for a convenience store but I was so happy to find this place. It's a Keto Safe Haven!!! Prior to my vacay to AZ I did a lot of research on food by my hotel. I was so disappointed in all the restaurants surrounding the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. It's all fast food. So, I meal prepped as much as I could. However, hiking in this hot weather has increased my appetite. Inevitably, I ate all my food, lol. So, the General Store seemed to be the best option. Man! I was so pleasantly surprised. They have fresh produce, diary, keto friendly snacks like Lily's chocolates and Quest bars. I don't know why this place has such bad reviews, it's super clean, everyone is so nice, and they have great options! Go go go! read more

There are very few places to buy necessities in Tusayan outside of Grand Canyon National Park. I forgot my sunglasses and just wanted to get some cheap ones for the upcoming hikes. I found a pair with UV protection that fit perfectly and were cute too! $14! Picked up a few other things (coffee, water, souvenir bandanna). They were all pretty reasonable. I was fully expecting to be gouged but that wasn't the case. read more

Awfully rude owner! Go next door to the convenience store nearby to get what you need. We were surprised to not find a single diet drink in their inventory. When I asked the owner at the register whether there are other stores nearby, she rudely interrupted and told me no there are not, and that I better "Google everything before making a trip". Excuse me??!! After I asked how come they don't carry any diet drinks (we've always been able to find a diet option anywhere), the owner shrugged and said that is all they have, period. She lied about the stores. A convenience store store next door had what we needed, and the staff were very pleasant. read more

Stopped in to get a few supplies while visiting Grand Canyon. Good sized market. Well stocked and clean. Has tourist items, drinks, grocery items, produce and even fresh meat. They have wine and liquor also. You should be able to find just about anything your looking for. We did. Prices are what you would expect for a tourist town. Staff was friendly and helpful. read more

Finding myself more bullish about Tusayan General Store than other Yeeps have been in their reviews. We found the store to be clean, well stocked, well organized, to have what we needed and then some, staffed by friendly people and fully accessible from parking lot throughout the store. (Take a look at Lauren Jeanne G.'s good interior photos to give you an idea of what to expect.) For the four of us in our traveling party, we were looking for a place to buy good quality food options to take into the Park with us (so we wouldn't have to eat the awful Xanterra concession food there) and to nosh on with a bottle of wine at the hotel in the evenings. The General Store has snack options in spades, from run of the mill processed foods to the more organic, healthy choices we wanted. Like Justin's Organic nut butters in convenient individual size servings, whole grain crackers, mixed nuts, organic bananas, Lara Bars, dried fruit., Brown Cow yogurt....and OK, we'll admit it , licorice and chocolate bars. Not to mention bottled water which you'll drink more of than you can imagine as you explore the Park. They also have ice (for your cooler...seeTIP below) and a sundries section where you can pick up things like zip-loc bags, paper towels and the aspirin you might need to treat the elevation headache you might have (7200 feet in the Park and it can do that to some), They also have the ubiquitous souvenirs, options with which some reviewers seem to take exception, but this goes with the territory and the option is don't buy them.. They even had a bottle sales shop for liquor, beer and wine. Not something we looked at as we always pack our own bubbly and red wines (and wine glasses too) to travel...prioirites. (Note that alcohol will affect you more at this elevation than at sea level...and here again that aspirin may come in handy.) BOTTOM LINE: for our experience is for a little store in the middle of nowhere and near the entrance to one of the National Parks, our expectations were exceeded. And given it costs this little place quite a bit more to truck in goods than it does a Safeway in the middle of big city pays, we thought the prices were fair enough too. A TIP: based on three visits to the park in the last decade: Eat breakfast and do not plan on eating lunch in the Park. The Xanterra food options at concessions range from not so good to not so good. And you'll waste time standing in line. Better to take a small cooler in your car, some snacks for inside the park and enjoy them here and there as you take a break from exploring. And that's where the Tusayan General Store comes in handy, as the best place in town and right on the way to the Park entrance, to buy those snacks. read more

Tusayan General Store - From parking lot - Grocery Near Me - Tusayan, Arizona

More overpriced than expected, extremely rude cashier. Another reviewer said there's a General Store at the Grand Canyon with a better selection. Go there instead, support the National Park service, I wish I had. Here I was told to wait in the long line again if I wanted to know the price of the souvenir in my hand before buying it because "I should have known what I wanted before I got to the register and I'd already taken up too much of his time" (buying other stuff). All in a creepy soft spoken voice. FYI also was told no returns, but just saw another reviewer did return something. One star for not overpriced illustrated note cards (3.95 for one). read more

If you forgot anything for your trip down into the Canyon, this is your One Stop Shop! Anything from touristy items, groceries, beer, wine, soda, clothing, camping gear, RV fix-it's, personal items, etc, etc! Even a US Post Office with old school mailboxes. I had blown out the sole of a hiking boot, so my fix it was a tube of "Shoe Goo" and Electrical Tape (to hold the mess together while drying). My wife needed a particular contact solution, yes, they had that too! We rejoiced in our finds and ingenuity by a few other luxury purchases and a local six pack. If you want to survive, make a stop at the Tusayan General Store! read more

Tusayan General Store - A little bit of everything you would need. - Grocery Near Me - Tusayan, Arizona

Yeah I'm the idiot who road tripped to the Grand Canyon by myself and didn't bring any snacks or nearly enough water to cover for the weekend. Luckily, I found the Tusayan General store, which is really the only convenience store aside from the little gas station marts, here in this quaint town. There's everything you'd need for your trip. From dry & canned food to protein bars & snacks, beverages, beer, souvenirs, clothes, firewood, ice, and plenty other items. I loaded up on what I needed, shared a laugh with the friendly workers up front, and was on my way to [not die at] the Grand Canyon. [Spoiler alert: I survived!] read more

It's the only food store around plus has about everything you'll need for your trip but you'll pay the price the good thing is it's half a mile from the park entrance. There's also a general store in the park read more

Guy with long white hair was extremely rude. Should not be customer facing. Put him in the back. read more

This place even sells the candles with the holy santos on them. Tight! This is the store where you get your food, camping supply, send & receive mail and get your reasonably priced Grand Canyon souvenirs. All under one roof! We loaded up on sandwich making stuff...and beer before our visit to the canyon. The price of the stuff though not cheap was reasonably priced, plus I felt that the staff was friendly and very accommodating. My only regret was that I didnt buy this t shirt that was on sale here. Nice design and only $13. Guess I gotta plan another trip? And when I do, Ill be back at the Tusayan General Store. Ciao. read more

Huge store with a big selection of souvenirs (including a generic pressed penny machine), groceries and alcohol. Do my eyes deceive me? I found one of my favorite vodkas, Turi on the top shelf. And the pricing is about right on par with BevMo so it wasn't a total rip. But no, we did not buy it opting for the local $30 mess of a vodka with prickly pear flavor. Uggh. Uggh. Uggh. Should have stuck with Turi, Belvedere or even freakin' Stoli. The lemonade is $1.99 for a gallon. Cheap! Best deal outside of the Grand Canyon. (picture of icky vodka in listing) read more

Tusayan General Store - Arizona Prickly Pear Vodka - Grocery Near Me - Tusayan, Arizona

Nice store full of Grand Canyon touristy stuff.

Extremely rude staff. Have a feeling the checker (old white man, khaki pants, tucked in black grand canyon shirt, grey hair wearing a mask just over his nose) didn't like the fact that we were an interracial couple. Very high prices ($66 for bacon, sausage, cheese, bread, Lettuce and tomatoes, yikes). ALL cartons of eggs were expired by at least 2 days. It's the only place around (hello, price gauging!!) where we were camping so we didn't have a choice. So my suggestion is - plan to shop somewhere else. We will never be going back. read more

The food was toilet and expensive. The old man cashier was rude tried to kick me out because I took my mask down my nose so I could breath. I told him I couldn't breath I went outside and he called all kinds of people about nothing. Yet their making food and the air is circulating. The food again toilet. This place is full of cheap chinease garbage. I don't like rude service from a cashier when I paid all their hourly wage. Old cashiers with PPP up to their ears lol. read more

Perfect convenient store by the grand canyon. We had brought what we needed for snacks, but if we hadn't this place would have saved us. They have EVERYTHING. By everything ...they even have vegan chocolate. I was really impressed. Healthy snacks, protein snacks, even actual food stuff. The other half of the store was tourist things like souvenirs. My husband and I found things for our parents and cool grand canyon playing cards for us. Prices are decent as well. They also have the back of the store for clothing if you forgot or need anything for hiking. I saw a lot of north face and Patagonia. Alot of options/sizes/colors. It was like being in a tiny rei. It's such a small town but you have everything you need here. And there is a Starbucks attached. Really enjoyed looking around here. Hope this review helps someone looking for a store before going to grand canyon. read more

Love this place. Nice selection of individual beers (and small growler station) as well as a small produce section. Good options for sandwiches (Boars Head meats) as well as frozen items (Jimmy Dean frozen items). Also fairly nice liquor selection. People are nice. Prices high, but can be when the only game in town. read more

Older man with white hair seems like he hates working there. Was rude slammed our stuff into the bags and left the change on the counter. Barely looked at me.

In the first shopping center you come to after exiting Grand Canyon National Park is the Tusayan General Store. Not only a great grocery store with all you would expect and more, there is a Starbucks adjacent with an entrance in the store. About half of the square footage is souvenirs and clothing, along with travel necessities you may have left home without. The prices are better here than anyplace else in town for souvenirs and t-shirts. Plus any food or supplies you need for your stay or continued travels, this is the place. The service was amazing as well, the gentleman who checked us out took the extra time to really wrap and secure my purchases so nothing would get damaged on the way home. I really appreciated that! read more

This is right outside of the Grand Canyon. So, while I was waiting for my pizza to bake next door, I scurried over to the general store in hopes to score some baby moccasins. While, they did carry Minnetonka, they did not have any for babies. That aside, this store is pretty impressive. It is part grocery complete with craft micro brews and liquor, part souvenir, and part outdoor gear shop. Bonus, they even had a penny press! read more

I came here to buy souvenirs for the family before heading out of town. My arms were full and I was looking for one last T-shirt in a youth size and finally decided to ask an employee. When I said "excuse me, do you know if you have any more youth sizes in this shirt?" He turned around, clearly annoyed I was asking for help and said "What?" Then proceeded to tell me he didn't have any kids so he couldn't help me. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to start an awkward argument but I don't think it matters if he has kids or not, he works there right? My hands are full and I was struggling to find the size I needed. He should have helped. Then I go to check out and I asked for a subtotal about halfway through the transaction and the cashier acted like he didn't know how to continue because of it. He was SO annoyed. After I pay he hands me the bag and says "here" my husband thanks him kindly and I finally had it. I said don't thank him, he should thank us we just spent $250 in this store. To say the employees in this store are rude is an understatement. I work in customer service so I'm extra nice to people in customer service because I know it's tough to deal with people sometimes day in day out but COME ON. Smh. Rude. read more

This place is the stereotypical tourist ripoff joint strategically located at the edge of a national park who's sole goal is to gouge tourists who want to stock up before going in the park. Not only are their prices confiscatory, the customer service abysmal, but they add items to your receipt that you didn't order. The pricing in the park is better, the selection equal or better, and the park staff actually cares about your experience.If you absolutely have to shop here, CHECK YOUR RECEIPT. Make sure they haven't charged you for something that you didn't select. read more

Man with the pony tail working the store is a jerk. "Good morning!" No response. Asked a question, all he did was close his eyes and shake his head. $7 for a bottled drink. Cute T-shirts and souvenirs but I hate supporting such a crotchety old white man. read more

Stopped by twice during our Grand Canyon visit. Had all the basics that were needed to cook our own dinner instead of eating out. Pasta dinner with salad and garlic bread. A few snacks. Also a 6pk corona. About 45 bucks. Maybe slightly more expensive than Los Angeles, but reasonable considering the other options. Would have cost at least that for our family of four to eat out. We have enough leftovers for lunch the next day and more. read more
