About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the early hours of one morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Gordon Food Service with an unusual load. As he unloaded crates onto the back of his truck, he noticed something odd in one of them—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper. As he opened it curiously, out popped a tiny, sleepy hamster who scurried away into the nearby aisles. Alarmed but amused, the driver chased after him, only to be stopped by a bemused security guard and a concerned-looking manager. Turned out, someone had accidentally packed Fluffy, their neighbor’s pet hamster, instead of canned goods. The next day, everyone in town knew not to leave their pets in the grocery store—especially if they were mistaken for groceries.

2. In the depths of winter, when snow blanketed everything in sight, a delivery driver left something unusual behind—a bag filled with freshly baked cookies, neatly arranged on the loading dock. As days passed, neighbors started noticing these little treats appearing outside their doors—each day, different flavors appeared like magic. Eventually, someone asked Gordon’s manager if they knew who was responsible for this holiday miracle. Turns out it was just a delivery driver trying to brighten everyone's mood during the cold season.

3. In the middle of a quiet afternoon, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Gordon Food Service. Suddenly, a small dog appeared from nowhere and started chasing something on the ground. The driver leaned out curiously, only to see a squirrel dashing around with what looked like an old shopping list. The driver laughed, thinking it was some prank. But as he approached, the squirrel scurried up a nearby tree, leaving behind just a crumpled piece of paper. Curious, he picked it up—only to discover a handwritten note: ‘Free groceries for anyone who can catch me!’ A neighbor passing by chuckled, shaking their head at the sight.

4. One foggy night, an exhausted delivery driver muttered under his breath as he unlocked the loading bay door: ‘Finally, I can grab some coffee and get outta here.’ Little did he know that from then on, every time someone bought a bag of ground beans from Gordon’s shelves, they’d swear it tasted just like home-brewed magic. As weeks passed, neighbors started comparing notes: ‘This is the best coffee I’ve had since moving in,’ said one proudly. One day, a regular asked the manager if they could hire the mysterious delivery driver—after all, he must be some kind of wizard! The manager smiled mysteriously and replied, ‘He left long ago, but our beans still carry a little bit of his luck.’
