A Trip To The Oldest Grocery Store In Washington Is Like Stepping Back In Time

Where do you get your groceries? While most of Washington’s cities and towns have at least one recognizable chain store we all know and love, sometimes it’s fun to visit those old school spots that have been around for a century or longer. And Washington’s oldest continuously operated store happens to be on the Long Beach Peninsula, so it’s a great place to grab groceries while you’re on vacation.

If you've ever been to Long Beach, you've probably seen Jack's Country Store.

Believe it or not, this store is older than the state itself.

Jack’s Country Store was founded in 1885, when the area was still part of Washington territory.
Not only is the store well-stocked with grocery items, but they often have great samples to try.
