Crane's Country Store - Williamsburg

What a great load. they can spend hours here to hide all the historical objects that lie on the walls and cover. I wish the display cases were easier to see. there was no food, but the sandwiches looked good. great hunting, camping and outdoor clothing and equipment. it is worth a stop that transfers the condition.

I 've been coming here since the early 80 's. So much nastolgia, so many warm memories. I miss the old guys sitting around the stove in their overalls telling their fish stories (at least that 's what grandpa called 'em). Be sure to get yourself a one meat, one cheese and a Coke in a glass bottle.

A must stop if traveling east on i70. Everything from bullets to bologna, very cool old general store.

They have everything. Seriously. You can stop and get gas and a candy bar, or go in and have lunch and get a new wardrobe and pick up groceries on your way out. The staff is really friendly and the bathrooms were clean. I definitely recommend stopping by when you have plenty of time, there are a ton of really cool things to see.

One of the many cool things about road trips is stumbling across country stores that have been around for ages and sell everything you can imagine. Over generations, they've helped sustain and connect communities. There are fewer and fewer of them nowadays vs. chains. This one in Missouri started in 1889 and the current location was built in 1926. It sells deli sandwiches made to order, all sorts of other food and drink, souvenirs, live bait, feed, guns and ammo, endless camping and hiking gear, outdoors and farm clothing and shoes, plumbing and auto supplies and more. Also, what increasingly seems like a throwback, print newspapers. Plus, they keep their restrooms spotless. With friendly, helpful folks running the store, long may they thrive. They've been at it for four generations!
