Shell

i buy snacks from here and i could ask for nothing more. good folks work at this place and i appreciate the different variations of gummy candies

Love this place!! I’ve been going here daily for 4 years and it’s amazing to me how kind the staff is for the amount of traffic that flows in and out of there! Especially with some of the grumpy, entitled characters they put up with (previous reviews) If you find yourself doing something 43 times & then blaming others, self awareness may help you explore other alternatives to get what you want. But then again maybe writing a bad review will help put them out of business so we can all be forced to drive to Chimicum or Walmart to find a Hot dog 🤔

The Gas Station in Port Ludlow, or aka The Port Ludlow Village Store, which is how only the long time Jefferson County local fixtures and characters reference the store.
The only gas station/grocery retailer within approximately 7 miles and further.
) +To the East (Kitsap County, Four Corners Gas Station) and/or
+To the West (Jefferson County, Chimacum's Templetons Gas Station) and the next is as far as 12 miles
+To the North, (Clallam County Indian Reservations Long House Gas Station).

These factors make the Port Ludlow Village Store the most active jumping off point on the North West end of the Hood Canal Bridge.
Time, distance, and pure nessicy make living in this isolated rural area the meaning of a waking hell for city people and convenience accustomed metropolitan transplants.
This is the one bridge off the peninsula and it closes to traffic due to marine openings and automobile accidents for up to 2 days at a time without notice, which makes leaving the Olympic Peninsula a virtually impassable nightmare for unforseen periods of time everyday and it shall remain this way, it does not matter the amount of illegitimately swindled tax dollars WADOT spends on the lipstick, this pig will remain ugly.
One option in the summer and early fall is a 6 to 8 hour trip down through Olympia located in Thurston County, while a viable means to escape this highway
one is required to travel is often shut due to killer mud slides.
If you don't have a urgent need to come to Jefferson County, its best to avoid the Peninsula just like the Black Plague. The locals don't have the patience or the slightest appreciation for politically correct ideologies (which is no less then censorship of the individual), no room for safe zones because life is not safe, or easily attained awards or trophies because competency is not a trait which it. .equally afforded to all. Past persons who relocated to this sparsely populated region have in the past almost always proved to have very little respect for the idiocincracies and independance required to live in such a wild and desolate place over any real length of time.
If you are considering the move to the Puget Sound area you should know that the East Sound is much kinder to California's and anyone who enjoys relative safety and uninterrupted power and water..
