Other meaning of Quedar?

Is it correct that "quedar" can also mean "to be (located)"?

E.g.  In a supermarket you might ask "¿Dónde quedan los cereales?"

Hola Alan

It is not very common, but you could use quedar as well in that context.

However it would be more used to ask about where a street, a station, a hospital is, and we'd probably add "por". For example:

"¿Por dónde queda la estación?" (Whereabouts is the station?)
