Manning’s Corner Store

This little place has a your general corner store items that are more expensive than what you would pay at a large store like Tops or Wegmans. They have a lot of small bags of snacks like chips, pretzels and crackers along with a decent amount of dips and salsas. They have your standard section of Twinkies and Ho-​Hos and a small area for your necessities like paper towels and cleaner, etc. They have a small selection of beer and although it may not look like they have 30 racks, if you ask, they have some in the back. Their coffee pot was full when we arrived at 6:30 so we were under the impression that it was nice and fresh. I was not a fan of the coffee and your only option for milk products was cream. Mind you, three coffees, a banana and a ham breakfast sandwich only came to $ 8. You cannot beat that, no way. The ham breakfast sandwich was pretty tasty. The woman working the counter was super kind too. Overall this is just a convenient place to stop if you are in the area, need a quick snack or a drink, just don’t expect too much.

This is small general store located on Rt 93 and Upper Mountain Road. The store is a popular stop for those commuting from the Cambria /​Wilson /​western Lockport area to Buffalo. Why is it popular? The gas prices here are consistently some of the best in the area. You can expect to pay an extra 5 – 10 cents just a few miles down the road in Pendleton. You can also fill up your propane tank here for a reasonable price. The store itself has all of the usual items — breakfast sandwiches, coffee, snacks, etc. Nothing particularly great, but I love having a «local’ country store in these parts and the employees here are always friendly. I much rather give my hard earned money to these guys than the price gougers at Kenyon’s down the road.

Good down home country store, convenient and well needed in this part of rural New York. This convenience store has two gas pumps and I think they sell propane. Friendly staff, and well visited by van loads of local farm hands. Thanks for being there during my last fill-​up.
