Bones Grocery, formerly known as Bowen's, is a small, friendly neighborhood store in Huntingtown that offers a variety of products and a welcoming atmosphere. The store features a lovely deli in the back, known for making delicious sandwiches, with attentive staff who sometimes go above and beyond, such as packing dressings separately to prevent sogginess. Customers appreciate the store's selection of food items, including rotisserie chicken, wings, homemade country sausage, stuffed ham, and a good variety of wine, liquor, and ice-cold beer. The ice cream is also highly enjoyed. Many visitors find Bones to be a pleasant place to shop, reminiscent of a traditional country store, with helpful and friendly staff. However, some reviews mention recent changes after the store was bought out and renamed, noting that the atmosphere and service have shifted. While some staff members remain friendly and welcoming, others have been described as unprofessional or less attentive. The deli has experienced some decline, with longer wait times and inconsistent ingredient availability. Customers also express hope that the store maintains its charm and quality, wishing that certain popular products like H&M bread and mini gummies would return. Overall, Bones Grocery continues to be a beloved local spot with a mix of good food, variety, and community spirit, despite some recent adjustments.
