Friendly service, and an UNBELIEVABLE selection of grocery and non-grocery odds and ends. Powerade? Check. Motor oil? Check. Mr. Z’s In and Out T-shirts? Check. I was surprised to find that many of the prices were more comparable to grocery stores prices and less comparable to convenience store prices, though this place is the Volker Neighborhood’s prized convenience store. Sure, there is a lot of merchandise crammed into a tiny space, but that’s what gives this little place a lot of its charm. The staff is friendly, too, and greet you when you walk in. It also has a parking lot, uncommon in this neighborhood. Thumbs up.

Hah while I do like this store for the convenience I will say it is a lot like walking into a hoarders home. They definitely make use of the space in the store and pack it full of goodies. I have always avoided this place until I moved in nearby just because it always had a bit of a shady feel to it for me. It’s not a bad store at all though! Like any liquor/convenience store of this magnitude expect to find all assortments of odds and ends, cut up beer boxes taped with clear masking tape to keep the goods from rolling out, and cramped aisles in the store. If you can get over the looks it’s really a decent store for things you might need late night if you live in the area and need a quick item or two. Since I have only been here once, I will definitely update with more once I have been a few more times.

Love Mr. Z’s! It’s always late when I get home and no matter what the ingredient I am needing they have it! Staff is always friendly! One of 39th Street’s true gems!

Its main upside for me is proximity to my apartment. Very happy to have a little place like this nearby. Docking a star because the beer has, on occasion, been past peak freshness. Check the born on date before you buy!

Convenient mainstay in my hood. They carry most of the essentials you’d expect, and the prices aren’t bad. But they also run out of stuff… a LOT. I have been here in July when they didn’t have a single bottle of Gatorade in the cooler section. No Gatorade. In July. I’m not kidding. Yes, the place is tiny, but the concept of «you can make more money if you don’t run out of stuff» doesn’t seem to register. Still glad it’s here though.

OMG. Mr. Z! I’m a fan strictly for the fact they have Mr. Z t-shirts. I bought my dad one for father’s day since afterall, he is Mr. Z.

I probably wouldn’t go here if it wasn’t just a few blocks from my apartment, but Mr. Z’s is a clean and convenient quick stop for cigarettes(about 50 cents more than you can get down the street at Walgreen’s or World of Spirits) and other convenience store items. They keep pretty good stock, and everyone who works there if friendly, especially after they begin to recognize your face. You also have the creative freedom to make your own parking spot!

This little bodega, or convenience store is a easy place to walk up to(if you live in the area) or drive to(they have a small surface lot) if you need a drink, snack, cigs, etc. The building is cute, but needs some work. I can re-envision it as a cute little café with a patio replacing the surface parking… but I digress. It’s a little dirty, but the prices are not high and it’s a neighborhood mainstay!
