About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the store closed and the lights went off, a soft humming began in the Key Food parking lot. A delivery driver first noticed it, thinking it might be an old refrigerator left on. But as he investigated further, the sound grew louder, almost like a distant choir singing in perfect harmony. Curious, the delivery driver followed the sound deeper into the lot until he saw a small glowing figure waving at him from behind a carton of eggs. It turned out to be just an excited neighborhood cat, who every night gathered friends for a secret concert before retiring to nap on some fresh bread. The next morning, customers found the produce section decorated with colorful notes reading: ‘Thank you for listening!’

2. One day, after closing hours, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he approached the Key Food parking lot, his car radio would inexplicably switch on, playing children's songs at full volume. Curious, he parked nearby and peered inside. To his surprise, an old shopping cart was rolling around, bumping into cars and knocking over cones, while singing ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ in a squeaky voice. The next morning, when employees arrived, they found the entire store filled with balloons spelling out ‘Welcome Home!’ It turned out that a neighbor had decided it was time for the delivery driver to finally move in.

3. Late one evening, a delivery driver was unloading groceries in the empty parking lot. Suddenly, he heard an unusual sound—someone whistling a familiar tune from inside the closed supermarket. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old man whistling softly near the cheese counter. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic neighbor who thought the store was still open for late-night snacks. They ended up sharing some free samples and laughing over a shared love of music.

4. Late one evening, as a delivery driver was unloading groceries into the backroom of Key Food, he heard an unfamiliar voice over the intercom: ‘Please return your shopping carts to their designated spots.’ Curious, the driver followed the voice and found an old man in a wheelchair, who smiled warmly and said, ‘Just helping out around here, sonny.’ Turns out it was a regular customer, making sure everyone returned their carts so his neighborhood could stay tidy. The driver shook his head with a laugh, thinking, ‘Key Food’s secret weapon against chaos—a friendly senior citizen!’
