What clients say about Chloe Auto & Hardware in Gormania (WV)
While out traveling, my wife and I discovered a little treasure that is quickly fading from our midst. A small hardware/convenience store reminiscent of Mr. Druckers store on Green Acres. They have a large selection of necessities from shovels to soda. The proprietor has been there for 25 years and she bought it from another She stated the store had been a part of the community since the late 1800s. It’s a treasure. If you’re out adventuring, take the time to stop in, say hello and pet her little dog.
Wow! You just don't see this anymore unfortunately. Wooden shelving compartment rows, with everything. I haven't seen this since I was a kid in the 70s. I'm just looking at the pictures. Wish I was there. I bet the smells of hardwood and hardware and stuff would just take me right back home! Of course when I was a kid, it would've been accompanied by the smells of whiskey or rum flavored pipe tobacco, and/or cigars. I don't smoke, and am against it, but I always loved those smells in the old timey hardware and feed stores and such. People in big cities would have a (fake) heartattack and a stroke now. ?
I'm from West Virginia, a few dozen miles from here. Had to leave decades ago for employment. Miss it.
We are new to the area and were told by a neighbor about this business. We prefer to give small family businesses our business and this one did not disappoint! Excellent customer service & inventory was generously stocked with competitive pricing. We had plumbing needs on a Sunday and they had what we needed. Great find and we will be back!
They got most all we need as we go higher in the moutains. They order materials for us for our project every month. Just stop, get the stuff an say hay y'all an head up in the hills
This place is great. It’s a small hardware store with a wide selection of hardware. Yes, it doesn’t have everything but it does have almost everything that one would need on a regular basis and if they don’t have it they can order it. It’s great to have a good local hardware store.
This store has been around for many years. It is a Wonderful place to get hardware, groceries and many other items. Love the old time look the store stil has.
