Warrensville General Store and Deli just may be the busiest spot in this village some six miles north of Montoursville.
If so, cousins Tina Earnest and Ken Bower Jr. would certainly like to keep it that way.
The two are the new owners of the business located in the heart of the community at 5849 Warrensville Road.

Cousins Tina Earnest and Ken Bower Jr. run the Warrensville General Store, which serves sandwiches, pizza, breakfast meals and other food.
As longtime Warrensville residents, they are excited about having a business there.
"Our main thing is definitely breakfasts," Earnest said. "We also do lunches. We have subs and pizzas."
The restaurant also offers fresh-baked goods - cookies, pies and cakes - and homemade soups.
