Hitchcock's Market is the main grocery store in town, offering a variety of fresh and unique items. Customers appreciate the friendly and accommodating staff at the butcher shop and deli, which provides high-quality meats, hot foods, and sandwiches. The store is known for its selection of items you don't often find in larger city stores, such as pickled pigs feet, pickled sausage, and chicken feet, as well as fresh farm vegetables like sweet potatoes. The deli serves delicious prepared foods, including beef and chicken empanadas, fried chicken, rice, and pulled pork, which are popular for takeout or ordering ahead. Many visitors travel from nearby cities to enjoy the tasty, low-sodium hot foods and order special items like pinchos, which receive high praise. However, the store has some drawbacks. Customers mention that the shopping carts are often difficult to roll straight, though recent updates have brought new carts. There have been issues with sales promotions not being honored, and some feel the prices are high or the offerings outdated, particularly in the baked goods section. Despite these concerns, the store continues to serve as a hometown grocery destination, valued for its quality meats, unique products, and friendly service. Overall, Hitchcock's Market remains a beloved local spot for fresh food, special items, and community shopping.
