Negative experience: After the way that was treated by the owner's of this store I would advise anyone else that has any form of electric scooter to not come to this dairy, I took it with me witch has never been an issue at any other local dairy/supermarket taking inside with to prevent being stolen got screamed at to leave it outside.I simply left without buying anything and will never return I will go to the other dairy down the road where they do not mind patrons bringing inside.
