D K Grocery - Jamaica

I am wondering if the new name indicates a change in ownership. I've been to this store several times over the years of camping at the state park it was always good, reliable, friendly. But yesterday Sun. 8/22 we ordered b'fast sandwiches. Mine came with sausage that was literally burnt to a thin crisp. I was already driving away (trying to beat the incoming storm) didn't have time to turn around. Additional minor detail the cashier extolled the terrific, locally made donuts on display. We bought one soon learned that the cashier failed to mention the baked goods were day old+. We love Vermont, having both gone to school there. It's VERY rare that we have an experience like this. Perhaps it is due to the labor shortages all over. We'll try again next time.

If you 're staying in town or if you 're driving through Jamaica, this place is a little gem that carries nearly anything anyone could ever need. I feel as though you could walk in and ask for '57 Chevy hub caps, and the owners/staff would diligently check every corner and come back with we have '56s if that 's okay? (Ok, I exaggerate a tad : . To hit the highest notes: if they have any left, scoop up anything by the local baking queen, Skinny Goose. From shortbread to a loaf of German rye to cherry danishes, you will be in for a huge treat. The craft beer selection, particularly local and New England brews, is beyond brilliant. If you 're in town on a Wednesday evening call ahead to order a delicious wood oven pizza. I am disappointed to see some naysayer reviews regarding the shoppe 's previous owners. While I can 't speak to the previous owners who retired, I can say every family and friend members working behind the counters here have been nothing short of friendly and kind each and every time. Speaking of all of those times... the upside of Covid summer 2021 is that I had the opportunity to work remotely and found a great short term rental for a month+ in this quaint town; a walk and shop to D&K was genuinely a highlight I looked forward to each and every day.

A Jamaica landmark! After a great run, this is now West River Provisions. They have everything you need for your trip up to the mountains. Wine, beer, tobacco, groceries. They make a great chicken cutlet sun.

This place is packed with everything you need. As someone who is new to the area, I'm trying to get a lay of the land....where will I find my go-to Sourdough Bread? Where can I get a last minute coffee? Are we out of Beer? What spice do we need for that meal....you get the point. This Market/Grocery Store seems to have all of that covered in a small space. I believe they do Pizza Night on Wednesdays....as well.

FIRST: this is not a grocery store. It's barely a market. SECOND: Karen, the owner, lives up to her name. She was extremely rude to me as I attempted to purchase a 4-pack of delicious coneheads. As a 23 year old adult, I expected the transaction to happen smoothly. Karen however had other ideas. She would not sell me my coneheads, as my 22 year old girlfriend (who did not have her ID on her was waiting in the car. Apparently she thought I was providing alcohol to a minor. She claimed she could lose her whole business (which honestly I don't think would be the worst thing in the world. THIRD: this may have been harsh but she made me really angry and almost ruined my ENTIRE vacation. So Karen I'm sorry but you brought this on yourself.
