This place is great for its intended use of picking something up you forgot or grabbing a quick lunch of chicken tenders. However, it's crowded on the deck making it challenging to get in or out of the store at times. (Maybe put some umbrellas outside off the deck for people to sit at). It also feels like a gas station walking inside, very cramped. Soda and milk variety was limited.

We always have fun riding our bicycles to the General Store when staying in Palmetto Dunes. Either for breakfast or for supplies and ice cream, this is a well-run quaint and convenient shop for when you need a few beach or condo supplies. If grabbing breakfast here, they have a good special where you get two hash brown patties. It does not say this in the menu but they will give you two. This is a good price ($7.99) for the amount of food you will get. The ketchup and other condiments are behind the cashier counter and you w... read more

We stopped by the store for the first time and I wasn't impressed that the refrigerated items weren't clearly priced. The freezer section by check out hardly had any flavors of ice cream, but, I was thankful they had a few ice cream options remaining...a Twix ice cream bar is better than nothing! I do give them points for a great front porch to sit in the shade for a few minutes enjoying the ice cream.

The store has so many products you may need which makes it convenient but you'll pay. The store seemed to be higher priced than most we visited for example a $7.50 soft serve ice cream cone that was half melted. That's really the only bad thing I can say. The store has everything you may forget to pack.

Food Review I luv the general store, however, their breakfast and lunch food offerings have really gone downhill since it changed ownership a couple of years ago. The fried chicken used to be to die for and now is poorly cooked and usually dry. Mashed potatoes are powdered and thin and poor tasting. Other offerings are nowhere near the quality or taste of the past. No real smoked offerings anymore either. They used to smoke on-site just before lunch and offer smoked ribs and chicken. Not any more. Pricing is up on all offeri... read more

Very welcoming staff and very good breakfast items in the back kitchen. Plenty of other items for a general store but the breakfast is the main reason to go.

Hidden gem. It's a small grocery/convenience store with a hot counter in the back corner serving up awesome breakfast options. Sandwiches, plates, and donuts. They also do lunch with options such as fried chicken, ribs, wings along with country sides. I believe they also have daily lunch specials.

Reviews are all over the place Young parents w children may love Seniors will avoid for much better dining As a convenience store - higher ratings We are mindful of local ownership, and we are sensitive to maintaining local ownership at HHI

Great cinnamon rolls! The general store is a quick walk or bike ride away while staying in Palmetto Dunes.
