Brooks Variety Street Market

Very unusual and unfriendly. Little smelly and not much variety. There not open early enough and not open late enough. I’m always standing outside waiting for them to open the doors and they are always late! Some other times I go the doors locked and says be back in a few minutes I’ve waited half an hour and gave up before.

This place is something else.
it really smells awful. I think like dying, but not quite dead penquins, or maybe puffins. either way, its not good.
I live right around the corner, so sometimes i will procure items that are double or triple sealed.
As far as costumer service.
I walked in one night an there was a kid that was not older than 10 behind the counter… he was nice enough, but the rest of the people that work there are def not extroverts. and don’t really like having to pull their eyes off the TV to cash you out.
Oh well. it is what it is.
oh also, the intersection that it is on is terrifying. i don’t know why. it just scares me. sorta like other peoples dirty socks.

This place isn’t bad at all. This is a convenience store. You gotta pay a little more for convenience.

The absolute WORST customer service, high prices, AND, (this is the weird part, given the name), NO variety! ;)
I’ve been in there 6 times now as I live down the street, and each time, I promise myself not to go back.
Now, I’ve been going to enough convenient stores in my life to know that customer service at corner stores is often sub-​par, but Brooks Variety wins the worst customer service award of the convenience stores. The man at the counter (who watches you on a tv screen as you walk around — even though this is a very safe part of Brighton), acts like you’re interrupting him to buy what he sells. He’s gruff, disinterested, and unfriendly and watches his other tv set (with the news in Arabic) while you pay.
And, everything is extremely expensive, they don’t take credit cards, have a minimum for ATM cards, and don’t carry milk without Rbst! Okay, this time, I’m FOR REAL NEVER GOING BACK.
