    Small, limited market. For a visitor (like us), useful for mostly dry, canned and frozen items. Also has some pet food.

    I've been stopping here for years, but I haven't stopped in a while. This is a great little…read morestore. There used to be a Burger King, but it was replaced With a Mexican place. The Mexican place has limited hours. I haven't tried it yet, but when I do, I will write a review. The convenience store and the gas is open 24 hours. There is a post office here, but there is no counter service. It's primarily. P.O. Box and mail pick up by local residents. They do have a 24 hour mail drop, with pick up in the early morning. The convenience store is nice. It's clean, and the people are friendly. I like the decorations in the store. It has your usual. Beer, wine, food, snack, snacks, sundries, and it also has a small hardware section, which a good amount is winter gear. It has a small but nice souvenir section as well. Prices are pretty typical on some items, and then on others, they are a bit higher. I got an amazing beef jerky, and the price was reasonable for what I got They do sell chains in the winter time, but believe me, you are going to pay for them. There's plenty of parking, including truck and RV parking. There's also a popular snow park in the winter time. The elephant in the room, is, of course, the gas prices. You are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, with only a few gas stations in the immediate area, so you are definitely going to pay for gas. The best thing to do is fill up in Sacramento, Auburn, or Reno. The gas in Colfax and Truckee is a bit higher, but still well below what they charge here. I like this store. I will be back. Thank you.

    What a well stocked, small store for travelers passing through. There were pumps and plenty of…read moreparking out front. They had plenty of snacks on the shelves and many drinks in the refrigerator section. I was surprised about the amount of snacks and the selection of snacks they had. This store is clean. The lady who checked us out was kind and helpful. I would stop here again to get snacks and fill up next time I am passing through. It is definitely worth checking out.

    After a scenic motorcycle ride, our group of 11 stopped at Whorton's Market for lunch and…read morebreathtaking views. The food consistently impresses, and this visit was no exception. With everyone ordering something different, we got a good sense of their diverse menu. My salami sandwich was outstanding, easily one of the best I've had. Several others raved about their burgers, calling them the best they'd ever eaten. The menu also includes hot dogs, prepared hot food, and pizza. For those in a hurry, pre-packaged options are available. Despite our large group and other customers, the friendly staff efficiently handled our orders, getting our food to us much faster than a traditional sit-down restaurant could have. We enjoyed our meals at the outdoor picnic tables, taking in the stunning, panoramic views from high above the treetops. Whorton's Market is a must-visit in the area. Bring your appetite and your camera--you'll need both!

Only complaint I had to ask for ketchup for fries and got to picnic table a 1/4 mile from store and no napkins. Talk about messy.
