A small convenience store at the corner of 4th and Adams. I've never been sure whether the place…read moreis called "Adams Market" because it's at the intersection with Adams, is called "Adam's Market" after someone named Adam, or is called "Adam Market" as it's sometimes rendered in other online results. The great thing about this place is the owner, who is jolly and sarcastic and funny, although his wit does tend to run a little absurd and not a little dry. Almost as great, though, is the selection of Middle Eastern foods. It's a great place to stock up on boxes of mahmouls for cheap, or to get tins of stuffed grape leaves, which are a vastly better snack than the paltry selection of heavily-processed junk food. Fresh, but limited, but huge, baklavah. The real wonder, though, is a small row of sodas in the back. Not the fancy burdock-and-ass English stuff, but the selection of Lebanese fruit sodas by Kazouza, the best of which is the watermelon. None of them are HFCS-loaded crap, but the watermelon nonetheless captures the fanciful watermelon flavor of something like a Jolly Rancher without being too cloying (at least, for the first few bottles.) It's so wonderful. Like, it completely changed my view of carbonated beverages. It's also a reliable place to get ayran, which is good when the Kazouza gets too sickly-sweet. Also, the brand of ayran they stock is also very useful as a yogurt culture, and at least with the milk from my goats that I tried it with, it resulted in some absurdly-thick and wonderful stuff. Some of the staff other than the owner can be a bit grumpy or difficult, and some of them are quite sweet and outgoing. Still, it's hard to fault the gruff ones. It's the most centrally-located and only late-night convenience store in downtown Olympia. It's a great place to rub shoulders with people who are drunk at noon and people who are far gone in the middle of the night. It really functions as Olympia's only Middle Eastern market. International Spice and Halal used to carry much of the same stuff, and since it closed and its owner moved on to other things, this is the best place to go. And it does a good job of that, while also doing a good job of being a convenience store. A very cool place. Near and dear to my heart.

This little cafe in the back of the Capital Court office building is a hidden gem. The interior is…read morepainted in bright colors; newspapers are neatly stacked on tables, waiting to be read; there is a TV in the corner; the layout of the space is attractive and economical, the space feels very clean, and there is abundant outdoor seating on an adjacent patio. The gentleman is very courteous. They stock a variety of baked goods and pre-packaged breakfast and lunch items, like what you'd find in a convenience store. And the prices are very reasonable. I strongly considered giving Mimi's 5 stars but the espresso was just okay--not bad, mind you, but not outstanding, either. Everything else was great.

It was owned and operated by Virginia Beach, Virginia-based Farm Fresh Food & Pharmacy. The Market had three locations, two of which were in Norfolk, Virginia, and the original location in Richmond, Virginia. The first store was an independently owned and operated grocery store which closed due to financial problems. The store's distributor, SuperValu, required that the store be reopened and handed operations over to FF Acquisitions LLC. The Market was known for each location being named after its neighborhood: Richmond's "The Market at Tobacco Row," Norfolk's "The Market at Ghent," and "The Market at Harbour Heights." Each store specialized in something prominent in the neighborhoods that they served, for example "The Market at Ghent" is located in a neighborhood with a large Jewish population; therefore it contains a large kosher foods section. All of The Market locations contained a premier bakery, deli, seafood shop, butcher, and wine specialist along with gourmet chefs on staff to prepare meals to carry home at the store's signature Chef's Corner. The chain's flagship store at Harbour Heights in downtown Norfolk closed the first half of 2011 after being open for only four years. The original location at Tobacco Row was rebranded as a Farm Fresh Supermarket during the third quarter on 2011 and the Ghent location was rebranded as a Farm Fresh Supermarket in November 2011. Farm Fresh Food and Pharmacy and The Market are wholly owned subsidiaries of Eden Prairie, Minnesota-based SuperValu, Inc.

Really disappointing experience picking up a DoorDash order here today. I arrived before any other…read morecustomers and the order was just a hot dog, a drink, and candy. I was told it wasn't ready yet, which was fine, but then every customer who walked in after me was helped before the order was finished. When I asked about it, I was told their policy is to help every in store customer first, even if a DoorDash driver has to wait 30 minutes while more people keep coming in. The employee was very dry and dismissive, and there didn't seem to be any urgency to complete the order. It wasn't just me being delayed. The customer waiting for this order and the other customers on my delivery route were all waiting longer because of it. I understand taking care of customers in the store, but DoorDash customers are your customers too. A small order shouldn't keep getting pushed back every time someone walks through the door.

I'm not much of a socialite, and I don't need to become best friends with the people I do transactions with, but what I expect is general friendliness. Puget Pantry delivers, whereas Don's does NOT. At Don's, I don't know if it's because I'm gender non-conforming, have green hair or look poor, but even though I go in there multiple times a week, they always eyed me like I was up to no good, avoided eye contact and other weird things. It made me feel weird and invalid when I went in there. (Exception: the son and grandmother who work there are awesome and nice.) #2 Reason: Later hours. They're open 'til 11 on weekdays; Don's only open 'til 10. #3 Reason: Cheaper pizza. I love pizza. Puget Pantry has Tony's pizza for $5; Don's cheapest pizza is $8. #4 Reason: They do cash back! Unlike you-know-who. Just a $1.50 fee w/o purchase. Okay, that's all.

They seem to be chronically understaffed--maybe there's a headcount cap despite high demand? There's almost always a line waiting, possibly because it takes 2 or 3 tries before each refill is ready--even after I ordered it online, and the website told me it's ready for pickup. This review is 2 stars not one, because I did, eventually, often after several tries, receive the correct drugs. I've moved my prescriptions to Haggen.
