Shroom Grocery is a location in Paper Mario. It is on the western side of Toad Town. The shop owner is a Toad, who has an associated tattle.[1] When Shy Guys invade Toad Town, one of them takes over Shroom Grocery and refuses to sell anything to Mario. There is the option to whack the Shy Guy (using jump, hammer, Kooper's or Bombette's ability) to repel him and therefore allow the owner to reclaim his shop. Shroom Grocery can be entered at the end, but he cannot buy anything because the shop owner states that Shroom Grocery is closed for the festivities.

Language Name Meaning Notes
Japanese キノキノざっか店[2]
Kinokino Zakkaten
「キノキノ」is likely from「キノコ」(kinoko, mushrooms) or「キノピオ」(Kinopio, Toad), and「ざっか店」means "grocery".
The official site for Paper Mario in Japan lists the store's name with two more kanji, as 「キノキノ雑貨店」.[3]
