Essentials
easy on Metro 67 bus. Affectionately known as "Whole Paycheck", the house brand is actually affordable. They have a good deli, bakery, and hot-food bar that's a bit pricey but very good convenient food. I believe they have a cafe eating place. It's right on the 67 bus line, short ride. Also drugstore and other shops nearby.
