Came here on a Monday night around 11pm. I guess it's a bit of a staple of the community? At least…read morethat's what the front desk staff at my hotel around the corner told me. It was pretty slow. About 2-3 people in it. It's a small store. You are paying for convenience (prices are a bit higher) because most other stores in the immediate area by foot are closed by this time / there's not a ton of competition. It's not the cleanest of stores and if you get anything that is not prepackaged, good luck to your gut because it doesn't scream the cleanest place ever. I got a few things - gatorade, candy, chips and it came out to 20 bucks. Staff is okay. Felt like they were staring me down. When I got to the registered they greeted me which is the bare minimum but felt like it was the best I was going to get. So I'll give them a half a star for that. Place is organized a bit weird. I could find items in the most random of places. Best to come here if you want one or two items.

Luckily, we found MA & PA Market on Sunday, October 9th around 6:45pm. We needed red bull! The roommate got a regular one and I got a sugarfree one at $2.29 each. I didn't look around much, but the market was a good size. I believe they have a good assortment of the usual offerings. It was a rainy Sunday, so not very busy. We were in and out quickly. Very convenient when walking around Southwest Portland.

Ma & Pa Market. You gotta love the name. Well, okay. Maybe you don't. Regardless, this is like a…read moremini mart plus. It has your standard selection of cold drinks, candy bars, snacks, cigarettes and the like, but it also stocks what seems to be an extended selection of dry goods, a decent size frozen case, and some hot food like fried chicken, jo-jo's, etc. Not that I have any reason to rock that kind of food when I'm in this area of town chock full of good food, but it's always a nice option to have. They came through for me on ice and bottled water when I was hosting an event nearby, and the ATM is convenient (even though it charges $2.95). Convenience has its price.

That can take a while, as the store appears to be minimally staffed. My wife had a prescription sent there on Sunday morning. There was a single person on duty at the pharmacy. Her simple prescription (an antibiotic ointment, and antibiotic pills) took three hours to prepare, and two hours past the first "your prescription is ready for pickup" text message. But, that aside, it was a relief to find a store with a pharmacy still operating in this downtown location near our hotel. So although ours wasn't the best experience, we appreciated that CVS is still open amid difficult urban circumstances. Oh, a bonus was that we discovered this CVS also sells wine, and the prices are not jacked up to hotel levels. That was also much appreciated.

I then go to the door and it's chained but I was able to crack it open and asked if she was going to help me out in which she replied 'no' ??? I was confused and extremely irritated she would respond like that. I also told her to change the sign on the door if she doesn't want to do her job.

We found it easier since it was at a corner but it's in a small plaza so there wasn't a lot of parking spots. When I walked in, I went straight to the locker which is on the left side of the store. The worker asked if I needed any assistance but I told him I was just picking up my package. The process is easy, you just put in your code and the locker open. My issue was that there were other packages in the same locker as my item. So I had to look through them and put back the packages that wasn't mine.
