I live in the neighborhood and shop here frequently. Great selection of household items and friendly staff. Pet friendly and treatos at checkout.
A great local hardware store that has helped me with various things! I've purchased Air conditioners here, Christmas decorations, power tools, a new toilet seat, and most recently I had several sets of keys made. Employees are always nice and chill who are ready to help you. It's a great asset to Lakeview.
I bought keys here and they didn't open my door I went back again and he said those keys would work but they did not so now I have to go back a third time
