Cooter General Store

"I like the cooter general store"

"Best coffee this side of Cooter"

"When I first arrived in Cooter, MO, I expected to find a town filled with closed-off and potentially racist people. What I found instead really surprised me. I pulled into the general store parking in my trusty old 2011 Subaru Impreza and was immediately complimented by the store owner on my Black Lives Matter and Coexist bumper stickers. I was kindly informed that masks were not allowed inside the building which I was happy to comply with since I am triple vaxxed (sorry covid!). Anyway, the store was filled with a nice assortment of household staples and various knickknacks. Sure, it was a little cramped, but I had to look past that since I noticed that a trans woman was working at the register. I was so glad to see real inclusivity in small-town rural America. I even bought myself a little souvenir, a new license plate holder that said “Cooter, Home Sweet Home”. It will be a nice trinket to add to my collection on my travels. Overall a nice, inclusive market with a wide variety of options. LBGTQ+ friendly with diverse staff."

"The prices are reasonable and the people there are always so nice"

"Rude service on 7/12. Employee was outside (with friends) when I drove up, started questioning why I have MN plates (recently purchased it, haven't registered in MO yet) and yelled at me to "take off that damn mask". Will never go back."
