Barnes Country Store

Went to this store twice in the past few weeks and they couldn’t have possibly been friendly. Great service, very kind. Will definitely come back.

Without a doubt the nicest family I have ever had the pleasure of coming in contact with. I found that store cause my usual place did not have what i was looking for. God truly works in wounderes ways cause Barnes Country Store is a bit further but it is worth the extra time and gas. It is now my usual store for sure.

This store is wonderful!! A great family run business that is very convenient to get to, and with fast service!!
Paula and her spouse are a great, friendly couple and always accommodating for whatever we may need! I highly recommend Barnes!

Best costumer service!!!! Many different options and downhome atmosphere. Been coming here for decades !! Love you Paula!!!

A quaint old county store setting from the barn shape to the nostalgic floors. A nice change from the stores owned by money hungry to a mom and pop setting ! A very friendly couple that go out of their way to help you in any way they can. Its worth a stop to support a local business that's privately owned.

5 starss.!!! Owner Paula is the best in frederick MD Hands down..! You need a convenient spot.? This is it. She works with you, Atmosphere is great, environment is just perfect. Not your average liquor Store.. Keep up the great work Paula..!!

;D

Absolutely excellent ! Always gracious ! "Paula"...so classy, super smart....best-energy. Business is owned by wonderful family. Great hours. Fantastic during these times & always! Great business !

Always friendly owners and staff at Barnes. I will tell anyone I know to stop in. They have pizza and lots of other items also.. You're sure to find what you need.
Thanks BCS..!

They are the best people and good family and they have good beer and food they are trying to get bigger and anybody has something to say I will apply back to you something to be nice to them

Nice people. Nice family business. Fair prices. Superior service. Will be back in the future.

Recent remodeling on outside building and repaving of parking lot.

Very helpful in finding what I was looking for

It’s good

There's just something about hearing the hardwood planks creaking beneath your feet as you make your way through one of the few remaining country stores in the county. I live about three miles away in a town of just a couple thousand "boasting" a Sheetz, a Circle K, and a Rutters, with a 7-Eleven due to open in a couple months - cookie cutter convenience stores without an ounce of personality among them. Give me a real family-run country store anytime.

EDITED: Things have improved lately. No bad experiences in the past 4 months. I'm raising this from 1 star to 4 stars.

Original:
Don't bother. Just go somewhere better by driving 2 miles. These people are rude.

Barnes is a liquor store/convenient store combo.

Just a little store to get beer cigs liquor etc

i went to Barnes to purchase milk--the price was high but it is a small store so I expected to pay more. when the clerk ( a snarly individual) rang up my item he wanted to charge tax--i stated that in Maryland, groceries are not taxed. he took the milk back to the refrigerator and shooed me out of the store--this is illegal. i am also writing to the MD state sales tax authority--i hope this guy gets in trouble. what a cheesy way to make an extra few cents.
