Don't expect this guy to be bike friendly

Did you have a bad experience, just get "bad vibes" in the place, etc.? I've heard good comments about this place and not had any problems myself, so I'm curious.

Bad experience, bad attitude attendant

I live 15 miles from there on the Katy and ride up every few weeks. The young guys are friendly as are almost all the customers. Seems like there always has to be one or two that feel the need to be hateful to show they're real men. You know, morons

I was at this market twice last week, the attendant was not overly friendly, but perfectly competent, made a nice sandwich. They stock a nice variety of foods, and are open more hours and days than many businesses on the trail.

I agree with bentcruiser. We were there last week the lady made a sandwich that was adequate. The regulars looked at us as though we were from another planet. The owner definitely didn't want to be bothered.

I love stopping by the Mokane market. It has a true rural small town atmosphere! Local farmers and ranchers congregate in the early mornings. It truly is a heart of America kind of place. The food is good, fresh and wholesome too.

Great bike ride and quite an enjoyable nature experience. However a lack of friendliness in the area puts a damper on things.

Me & my son, Quinn had a very good experience at this market. The young man behind the counter was very nice and polite, & waited on us promptly after behind on the trail for 10 hours. He even offered to lock our bikes up behind the store so we could walk down to the local fair that was taking place in town that weekend. 9/2/06

Our experience at the market was a good one. The place is definately small town but isn't that part of the beauty? We move some of the toys that were on the table and made ourselves at home. It so happened the owner was putting up a display near by and we had quite a chat about the history of the neighborhood.
