My wife and I, with our 2 children, have been members of this beautiful store for 3+ years since we…read moremoved into this area. I have lived on the Peninsula since 1984 and aside from traveling the western states for a few years it's been my home. We love this store because those that work here have always been friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Our children enjoy getting an Apple, Bananas or Carrot while we shop. The prices here have always been competitive with the "box stores". This is a great aspect when considering where to shop. To have fruit, produce and meats feom local farms at a reasonable price is one of many reasons we enjoy shopping here at the Co-Op and were quick to pay for the lifetime membership. Yesterday (19 Sept 2025) my wife and I went in for grocery shopping and everything seemed like a normal shopping experience we've come to expect. My wife has been enriched to finally have a service dog that goes with her medical conditions from her service in the Navy. She decided to stop having her service dog wear his vest and goggles (both were part of his suit as he was trained in both while he was a K9 for the police in Pocatello, ID). It was overwhelming for her to have people approach her and talk to her about her k9 (never seeing one so well trained, how cute he looks in his vest goggles, etc.). My wife was asked on 19 Sept if her k9 was a service dog by a lady who works at the Co-Op and she must have been a new hire as my wife and I haven't seen her working before yesterday. Most of the people who we interact with that work in the store all know my wife's service dog by sight and have the respect to not engage regarding our k9 in an invasive manner. The lady last night was not respectful, rather she treated my wife as if my wife was lying to her about our k9 being a service dog. Then after we got in line to checkout my wife realized she wanted an onion and a man stocking the produce stopped her and abrasively asked if the k9 was a service dog. My wife did not rest well and felt mentally off the rest of the evening. I realize it is important to keep pets outside of an establishment that offers fresh fruit, produce and other foods. It would also seem important with such a diverse array of people that frequent this store to have those working there know the importance of being professional, respectfu and tactful l when approaching anyone for any reason. Especially when it may be an interaction with someone who may have a service dog with them. Sadly people cannot teach someone how to use their intuition. I've seem many pet dogs, most of which are not trained well enough to be in any building. My wife's service dog is off/on leash trained, he's in tune with my wife's needs intuitively and never leaves her side even when we are home he next to her. It is a great comfort knowing that my wife has a k9 that can be there to protect her and keep her safe should any medical condition arise. My wife is now contemplating on whether she will be coming back inside the store as the stress created from the disrespectful manner has not allowed a restful night. I believe our new course is that she will no longer answer any questions from either staff or those who shop here. I will stand in for her so that she doesn't feel socially overwhelmed by those who choose to be disrespectful in their approach.

My wife and I have always had a nice experience here. The staff have always been more than friendly…read moreand we have always loved looking at the VAST vast selection of items. When we do come here we actually go for the toys. We love to shop local and they have a pretty decently sized toy selection and they sell really good brands like Hape, Tonka, Melissa and Doug, and Green Toys. I will say they are a bit over priced (this is the reason for 4 stars) and you could sometimes get a toy cheaper just buying directly from the manufacturers website. But as I said we love to support local businesses and they sell the toys we like to buy for our son. And like I mentioned the staff are really nice. This last trip we were going right before close and someone was vacuuming and my son is not a fan of loud vacuums. So the lady noticed that stopped the vacuum and then had a conversation with him about his new toy. It was a very good experience.

But today, I was stopped on my way in and told I had to leave my backpack--which acts as my purse--behind the counter. ME: "Oh? When did the store start this policy?" STAFF: "We've always done it." ME: "I've NEVER been asked to surrender my backpack and I come in here a lot!" STAFF: Pulls me aside in a confidential whisper..."It's not you, if you know what I mean, but we have to do it to everyone." Now, I am an AARP-card carrying senior in her 60s and I was stopped on this one occasion out of maybe 25+ visits to this store over the past 3 months. This is a case of implicit bias in action, folks. I don't carry a purse. I carry a small knapsack to keep my wallet in. I support Ace's right to proactively prevent shoplifting. But they must be consistent enacting those policies. Don't send off a suspicious vibe when you're projecting a "friendly" atmosphere! There's a smaller neighborhood HW store down the road. I think I will take my business there from now on.
