Beaverton residents lost their closest Zupans on Hwy 10 (Beaverton-Hillsdale)

Just outside of Beaverton was a great little local family owned grocery store called Zupans. From time to time, when I needed something unusual, I could count on that extra 10 minute drive from my home to Zupans netting me the results I was looking for and they would have the item.

But, the economy has affected everyone including the Raleigh Hills branch of Zupans. There are many reasons the store could have been losing business, but my wife feels that it could be the introduction of New Seasons Market just up the street. I personally haven’t been to the New Seasons. I’ve always been happy with Zupans. So I’ll take what was a 10 minute drive and make it 25 minute drive and head to the one located at 7221 SW Macadam in Portland, where I actually first discovered them when I was given a gift certificate for a free turkey one year.

So, sorry Beaverton residents, if you liked Zupans, you are going to have to spend a little more gas to get to one. If you have been to New Seasons, feel free to tell us about it, we would love a review!
