No atmosphere - but amazing Mexican Food. Due to Covid-19, take out only. Make sure and get an order of chips and salsa. If spending the day near St. Joe - consider La Perla Produce in Benton Harbor. They have a restaurant in the back. Again, top rate Mexican food.

Michigan's version of Wal-mart! This is a nice grocery store, and it is located a block away from ALDI, if that is what you prefer. Both of these are about 20 minutes away from the house. Take US31 (not 139) because of a construction detour.
