About This Spot

Stepping into Cullen’s Corner feels like being welcomed into the heart of a neighborhood where everyone knows your name—or at least where the friendly nods and warm hellos come without hesitation. This isn’t just any grocery store; it’s the kind of local hub that moves at a gentle, unhurried pace, where the everyday bustle softens into something familiar and reassuring.

The air here carries the comfort of a space tended by people who care deeply about their community, a place where the shelves hold more than just groceries—they hold pieces of daily life, moments of connection, and the kind of little essentials that make a house a home. Whether you’re popping in for an easy meal fix or a casual chat with the folks behind the counter, there’s a palpable sense of belonging that wraps around you like a quiet, steady embrace.

Behind the counter, you’ll find no pretense—just genuine warmth and a spirit of generosity. It’s clear that Cullen’s Corner is more than a store; it’s a gathering spot where neighbors swap stories, share a laugh, or simply exchange a familiar smile. The welcoming atmosphere encourages you to linger a bit longer, whether you’re drawn by the inexpensive bites, a crisp beer to unwind with, or the reassurance that this place is quietly invested in the fabric of the neighborhood.

For those who cherish discovering spots where the human side of commerce shines through, Cullen’s Corner stands as a modest but meaningful cornerstone. It’s where simple pleasures—an easy conversation, a thoughtful recommendation, or just the steady presence of kind faces—come together to create a space you might come to think of as your own little corner of Portland.

wonderful neighborhood cornerstore, a family operation that i have been a regular at since moving to the area. great people and cheap beer prices.

I can’t say enough good things about Lee and his corner store. He’s not only one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet, but he also goes out of his way to get to know his customers and build real connections. He’s funny, warm, and always ready to help. The store itself is everything you could want in a neighborhood shop—whether you need snacks, drinks, food, medicine, or anything in between, Lee’s got it. And if by chance he doesn’t, he’ll do his best to find it and stock it for you. It’s rare to find a place (and a person) this thoughtful and reliable.

Mr. Lee is a star of this neighborhood’s community. Friendly and kind, yet no nonsense. I love coming into the store to say what’s up.

Mr. Lee and his family are by far the most welcoming people! I love coming by and seeing these folks who have welcomed me into this neighborhood and made me feel at home. Cullen’s has everything you need! Great beer and wine selection, as well as anything you may need for a quick dinner at home. This place feels like home.

I love this corner store. It’s perfect. They stock regular sized cans of Diet Coke and caffeine free cans which is very important to me. the owner is extremely nice too.

What a great little ‘BIG’ store in our neighborhood! Lee,Tanny and their son Paul own & operate this friendly, well stocked gem of a store! (Every now and then you may walk in & hear someone singing- that is Paul who treats us now & then with his beautiful singing voice!). When you come in- even if you have been coming for awhile- just take a minute to look around & you will be pleasantly surprised at all they carry- including a very handy ATM! They have a great beer & wine selection plus ciders, energy drinks & juice. They carry Dairy-milk,yogurt, sour cream & cottage cheese. They have quite the selection of fresh produce-avocados,tomatoes, potatoes & onions. nice bananas & usually apples & oranges for a quick healthy snack or to toss in a lunch box. In their cooler you will also find sandwiches,lettuce, lunch meat, cheeses, bell peppers, jalapeños,cabbage, mushrooms & once we get near summer- expect cucumbers & zucchini too! They have a large selection of chips & you will find different flavored dips & salsa in their cooler. All day they keep their food warmer stocked with perfectly cooked chicken strips, chicken & jojos & spring rolls-yes! every day! They are my regular stop during the week when I want a friendly face & a chat and don’t want a busy/crowded grocery store. I buy quaker oatmeal & brown sugar, Charmin Ultra Soft toilet paper & Mike’s Cranberry Hard Cider- so much more & They sell butter by the cube too if you don’t need the whole box!! They carry frozen foods too- like Ice Cream & pizza for one & Stouffer’s frozen lasagna is a regular favorite of mine too. The dry essentials like foil, paper towels, toilet paper, soaps, diapers- & much, much more-stuff needed for barbecue-it’s all here & all so reasonably priced!They are open when most places are not -like during this pandemic and when we have severe weather-snow & ice events because they know we need them-they are essential to our community & I am so happy they are here. Thanks for being here and always so friendly and caring! I certainly appreciate you!

Great store! Nice selection of snacks and beers (even some produce). I used to live around the corner, and now I go out of my way to stop there and chat with Lee and check-in. In fact, I was so fond of the place when I lived in the area that I felt compelled to take some long exposure film photos. In a world lacking interpersonal communication, especially within convenience stores, it's refreshing to step into Cullen's Corner.10/10 recommend.
