Superior Grocers

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Superior Grocers closed its doors for the night, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The lights in aisle seven seemed brighter than usual, almost as if someone were moving around inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only empty shelves. But then, out of nowhere, a cat appeared, meowing and jumping from one crate to another. Turns out, it was just an overly curious feline exploring the store’s abandoned produce section. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh over coffee, including the delivery driver who now feeds that mischievous cat whenever he visits.

2. At closing time, an old lady whispered to her friend in the checkout line: ‘Did you hear? The cashier’s cart talks to itself after hours.’ After a while, everyone started hearing it—a soft humming and clicking coming from the empty aisles. One night, a delivery driver swore he saw the shopping cart pushing itself down the frozen food section! The next morning, the store manager found a note on his desk: ‘Dear Sir, please don’t worry—our talking cart is just practicing for its new job as a grocery robot.’

3. At midnight, when Superior Grocers’ neon sign flickered off, a lone shopper muttered, ‘I’ll be back… but not tomorrow.’ As if on cue, the door creaked open, and an old neighbor poked his head in, muttering, 'Did someone say “back”?' The two exchanged knowing smiles—clearly, they’d both been here before—and carried on their late-night grocery adventure together.

4. On foggy mornings, when Superior Grocers opened early for breakfasters, a mysterious figure lingered near the bakery counter. No one could see their face through the thick mist, but every morning they bought exactly three croissants and left without a word. One day, an excited delivery driver accidentally knocked over a crate of eggs right next to where the mystery figure stood. The eggs scattered everywhere, creating quite a commotion. As everyone scrambled to clean up, the figure turned out to be just an ordinary neighbor who’d been buying those same three croissants every morning for years.
