Employees are friendly and helpful, check-out lines usually move pretty quickly, most of the time there is ample parking, and the restrooms are clean.

I spent the summer flying for San Juan Airlines and I would often find myself on Orcas Island…read moreneeding to get some food. I frequented their soup and hot bar and I was always left satisfied. They had good options, ranging from ribs, corn dogs, orange chicken, and taquitos, as well as different soups. Unlike everywhere else on Orcas Island, the food here was always a good price ans didn't feel like expensive, "island pricing". I understand many people come here to shop and I can say that the grocery prices seemed to be comparable to prices you'd find on the mainland at Fred Meyer. The staff was always nice and friendly and the store itself was clean, well kept and organized. Sitting right in the heart of Eastsound makes it quite convenient as well. I definitely appreciated the sitting area to eat my food from the hot bar in the front of the store. My only major gripe was though they had wifi, no employee over my months of visiting was ever able to recall what the password was to access it which I found quite annoying. Otherwise, its a good store with a good hot bar for a quick lunch!

The make to order food was alright. I had the fish and chips. I don't recommend the caesar salad unless you REALLY REALLY like garlic. Like, burn your tongue garlic. From what I saw in the hot deli case, i wouldn't order that food. Some of it looked hardened and crusty, like it was a bit old, and some looked extra greasy. I took home a rotisserie chicken, and it was GREAT. They have a massive beer selection, for those of you who like local or micro brews, as well as a good few domestics. It was nice to see produce in that part of the county, although some of the vegetables were limp like they had gotten a bit warm. They had a pretty decent deli area, to get sliced meat and cheese. The prices weren't outrageous either. My main whine is the caesar, the deli case food was a big whine, and two things that I witnessed. I dont know if the guy was having a bad day, or what, but who I am assuming is the owner was VERY rude to one of his employees. He made a very sexist remark, was incredibly condescending, and I swear the poor girl was about to cry. The other thing was that the cook was not wearing gloves. big no-no in my book. His nails had black lines under them and he handled the food bare-handed. I mentioned this to the owner and he said it would be corrected. All I can say is that I will not be returning, but I guess you should go check it out and draw your own conclusion. read more

Great way to lose business by putting TRUMPF sighs on your property. I used to be a loyal customer, especially when Chuck owned it but no more...good luck. ps. I really don't understand how anyone can still support this character, especially that he has shown his TRUE colors over the last 4 years!

Chuck and Barb had a great place! New owners are no good. They are only interested in selling liquor and paraphenalia. Definitely not the neighborhood place anymore. Plus, they bribe customers with free ice cream for 5 star Google and Facebook reviews. Real genuine. read more

Like most co-ops, this place is heaven on earth to me. I am gluten free and vegetarian and…read moresometimes just don't feel like finding a restaurant and waiting for takeout, so I decided to just go here and see what they had at the hot bar. They had several kinds of indian food, a lush salad bar, and TONS of fresh-made deli items. I was tempted by a grilled salmon salad, gluten free mac and cheese, and the gluten free carrot cake. Ended up getting a vegan tofu burrito bowl and it was so good! I couldn't help but browse the snacks. They had every brand I love here, with flavors I had never even heard of. Ended up somehow resisting the desserts and huge fridge dedicated to olives and pickled goods and just got out with a few kinds of vegan jerky (which is hard to find for me). Again, heaven. I will have to come back on a cheat day when I am ready to sample all the gluten free dessert.

Giant potato wedges, chicken tenders, and THE BEST SAMOSAS in town! (so far, they're only the second place I've tried samosas, but they're really good) The samosas are lightly spiced but still very aromatic, crispy on the outside, fluffy potato inside.
