$ 2.75 charge in the ATM with a maximum withdrawal of $ 20. That’s ridiculous and even though I had enough money to buy what I needed they lost my business.

This little shop has everything, including a great wine selection and household items. My partner has a new office in the area and this is a super-convenient and very pleasant place to pop in and get whatever we need.

Great owners who get to know you, remember what you like, and always have it in stock. A small bodega with a little bit of everything. I always love when they give you a banana for free! I know it’s not much, but it makes you smile since no one gives anything for free these days. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because you have to check the expiration date on some foods. Otherwise, a great little neighborhood shop.

I returned to this place just a few months ago and the store had been sold. The new owners came in and brought the store into modern times. All new fixtures, lighting, floors. Completely made over. When I told the gentleman who I was, he came out around the counter and introduced himself. He was very interested in some of the stories from the old days. I was happy to see that this place is a viable business.

The Commodore Grocery is a tiny little shop in an area where every other block has a tiny little shop. The place is not particularly clean, it’s very crowded, and the prices are convenience-store steep. The last time I went in, I was buying a bottle of pop and didn’t have any cash. They wouldn’t take my debit card because I wasn’t buying enough. I guess I can sort of understand, what with the fees and all, but come on… who doesn’t take cards anymore? The owner works sometimes, and I’ve never had any good experiences with her. She’s short-tempered and always seems too busy. Which would make sense if she was cleaning the place up or something. A few years ago, I would put up with the place because it was the closest place to my apartment. Now that some new places have opened up, at least two other convenience stores within three blocks, not to mention a Fred Meyer about five blocks away… I don’t see much point in returning. Which is a shame, because I always like to see small locally-owned businesses succeed.
