Whatever you need , whether it's one thing you ran out of or a whole armload on the way home, it's in here.
No membership. No app. No nonsense.
Just walk in.

From the Road Snack to the Whole Bag You Didn't Plan On.
Doritos. Tostitos. Dinamita. Spitz. Bigs. Ruffles. Sun Chips. Smartfood. The classics you grew up on and the new flavors you didn't know existed until you spotted them on the shelf.
Whether you need something for the drive, something for the job site, or something for the couch tonight, the snack selection at Elmore's delivers.
We even have those much needed higher protein options.
Wall to wall. Door to door. Cold drinks in every direction — sodas in the bottle with flavors you can't find at City Market, energy drinks the bigger stores around here haven't touched yet, sports drinks, teas, juices, waters, and the classics you've been grabbing your whole life.
If you've been ordering certain drinks online because nobody local carries them — check us out first. The selection rotates and it always surprises people.

Blue Bunny Sandwiches. Butterfinger Bars. Snickers. Push Pops.
The good stuff. Not the sad little freezer with two options. A proper selection of bars, sandwiches, cones, and cups for the kid in everyone. Including the actual kids.
And look closely at what's hanging above that freezer. That's a real newspaper clipping. The one that made it official. The county gave this corner its name and it's been Elmore's Corner ever since.

Your Lunch Break Is 30 Minutes. Make 3 of Them Count.
You do not have time to drive into town, find parking, stand in line, and make it back before your break is over. Nobody does. And nobody should have to.
Stop at Elmore's on your way in. Open the freezer. Grab what sounds good. Throw it in the microwave at the job site and eat like a human being for once.
Devour meals, Stouffer's bowls, tamales, frozen burritos, enchiladas, Hot Pockets, Bagel Bites, snack packs and more. Right here on US-160, right on your way, ready before you even had to think about it.
Lunch handled. Break saved. Back to work on time.

Quality Gear. Right at the Corner.
TRUE fixed blade knives. Nebo tactical flashlights. Folding slingshots. Specialty tools built for people who actually use them. This isn't a gas station keychain rack, this is a real selection for the tradesman, the collector, and the person who appreciates gear that holds up.
The inventory rotates. What's here today may not be here next week. So if you see something you want grab it before it's gone.
The Roads Got Paved. The Corner Stayed the Same.
Highways replaced dirt roads. Towns grew. The drive between Durango, Bayfield, and Ignacio got faster.
But the corner didn't move. And neither did what it stood for.
Elmore's Corner Store has changed with the times by adding new products, new services, and eventually the 425° Take & Bake Pizza that eastern Durango has made a weekly habit. But the reason people stop here has never really changed.
It's local. It's familiar. And it's always been here.
The same corner that guided travelers through La Plata County a century ago is still the place people count on today, for a cold drink, a fresh pizza, a specialty item they can't find anywhere else, and a store that actually knows what this community needs.
