Capitol Hill’s Pacific Supply is the hardware-store equivalent of a well-stocked 7-Eleven. No, it doesn’t have everything you need to build a house, just as 7-Eleven doesn’t have everything you need for a fine-dining experience (or even a nutritious meal). But just as 7-Eleven has its Slurpees and hot dogs, Pacific Supply has what you need when you’re in a pinch, saving you a trip to a big-box store that’s bigger than the Pike/Pine corridor.
