Goodwins Mills General Store

"I was told by a local to try the pizza and wedges and let me tell you they are amazing. Customer service is priceless!"

"Used to drop in now and again 10 years ago, things have changed. The pizza was terrible, a cheap frozen one would be better."

"Have been going to the general store all my life, has always been great food and good service, has gone downhill rapidly the last few years, literally cant even cook over easy eggs, ham, and hasbrowns for breakfast. (Gave me dry scrambled eggs, cold sliced ham and stale hash browns), this has happened the last two attempts, wouldnt remake order after complaint, no longer recommended this store, go to Jacksons Corner store"

"The store seems generally unclean and the staff their gossip a lot. Cooler doors are broken, theirs a port a potty in the back if you need a restroom and the Kitchen staff don't seem to understand their own menu. I was told I couldn't order a sandwich with only toppings on half of the sub .Like, seriously? They confused the word Clam Cake for ... Meatball and the checkout staff seems to operate as if we are all still in 3rd grade (There's a Middle Eastern man who runs the kitchen and he is actually fantastic and proficient...my problem is more with the local folks that work their)"

"I stopped in with a friend for the very first time last Tuesday evening to grab a quick snack. After looking around a bit, we approached the food counter with a warmer to one side. The counter appeared to be set up for self-serve (paper containers for food, various condiments, etc. all laid out for the cutomer). None of the staff came over or said anything to us, so I took a container and turned toward the warmer to get some potato wedges when I noticed a handwritten sign on the front door. Before I could even finish reading it, a guy working behind the counter came rushing over and raised his voice angrily at us saying, "Hey, hey hey! NO! You do NOT just help yourself like that! There is a sign right there!" I hadn't touched anything yet (and couldn't have anyway since I later noticed the door was taped shut) but I quickly apologized and politely explained that I was trying to read the sign and had misunderstood the set up. Again, I had never been in this store before. After several seconds of silence he took my order, but despite my trying to be friendly, his angry attitude did not change. I understand that people have bad days or can get frustrated with customers. However, I don't think I have ever been spoken to like this (practically yelled at and scolded like a child) by staff anywhere else before. My friend was so shocked by this guy's response that she didn't even order at all! The experience really threw me off and made me never want to return, which is too bad since I am regularly in the area and was happy to try someplace I hadn't been before. The food was okay, but not worth the rudeness. The woman working the front counter was more friendly in comparison, but even she seemed tired/overworked and frustrated. I'm not sure what is going on in this store, but the the atmosphere is far from welcoming or positive. Would not recommend."
