Plaid Pantry

"The staff is very nice. However there is an issue with one of the employees who works by herself constantly having to lock AND chain the door because she works by herself at night. I understand this is a rough area, but there are late night shift workers (such as security officers) who come here for coffee and or their lunch breaks. With window only access they are unable to do this. This location needs to be properly and safely staffed at night to allow access as it's a 24 hour location, for more than just tobacco and alcohol availability."

"The young woman that was working at the register yesterday (Wednesday 02/07/24 @ ~4pm) was absolutely amazing and was being very patient with my elderly friend. I appreciated her very much."

"Lot of weird, creepy, loud people, that come here and even some of the cashier's are pretty strange. I'd say the one on airport-way is a better experience. (I know) it's just a mini Mart they're all the same and carry the same products mostly but the atmosphere here just isn't the best on hayden Island... Constantly get asked to buy something weird like a coat or random stuff or they ask for you to give money. (NEVER give your HARD EARNED cash away) Unless you know it's for something useful and good like getting food or drinks(non alcoholic)"

"Prices are similar to any of the other Plaid Pantry stores in the area. This one seems to be a bit crowded as far as people go but that’s because it’s next to a big shopping center, mobile home community, and there is also a big homeless community in the area. It’s in a convenient location. Expect more than average foot traffic, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. As others have mentioned, the store is a bit crowded as far as inventory goes and that’s probably a result of how many visits it gets. The good thing about all the inventory is chances are you’ll probably find what you need."

"This store is not as bad as it used to be. Yes there are homeless and drug addicts around there. But I know personally that staff is trying to take care of all of that. But when the police tell them there is nothing they can do. Then it's not employees fault. It's the Police department issue. I'm a regular at this exact store. And the staff are friendly. It's a tiny store. I think it feels like a friendly little place to go into."
