About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Pavilions supermarket usually buzzes with activity, a lone delivery driver parked his truck near the loading dock. Something unusual caught his eye—a shadowy figure darting between aisles, but only in the corner of his headlamp’s beam. Curious, he followed the shadow, only to discover it was just an overexcited neighborhood cat chasing its tail. The delivery driver shook his head and smiled, thinking, ‘Another day at Pavilions—where groceries meet wildlife!’

2. At midnight, when Pavilions supermarket stood empty, a security guard heard an unfamiliar voice whispering from the frozen food aisle: ‘Just one more box of pudding.’ Curious, he followed the voice and found only an empty box on the shelf. The next day, everyone in the store started leaving an extra box of pudding for the night shift. It became a tradition—‘just in case’.

3. In the early morning, when Pavilions supermarket was just opening its doors, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar: every day at exactly 5 AM, a faint humming sound would echo through the aisles. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old shopping cart, slowly rolling down the aisle with its own little motor. Every morning it would stop near the dairy section, leaving behind only a trail of milk splashes on the floor. The delivery driver became known as ‘the guy who chases talking carts,’ but no one seemed too worried—especially not the neighbors who started calling him ‘the hero who saves our milk.’

4. In the late afternoon, when Pavilions supermarket was almost closed for the day, a cashier overheard a customer muttering under their breath: ‘I’ll never buy those bananas again!’ Curious, she asked what happened. The customer shrugged and replied, ‘They were supposed to be ripe already, but every time I bought them they tasted like ice!’ Turns out, it was just an old delivery driver joking around with his friend—a neighbor who worked there. Everyone laughed, and the cashier learned that sometimes, in Pavilions, bananas can surprise you.
