“I never have a complaint shopping at fareway. You can most usually find good deals. My family and I really like the meat counter specifically, they have something for everyone.”
“A a super guy on 7/30 @ 6pm aprx came to the rescue of myself and my daughter. She spilled her drink and he came and cleaned it up and made us not feel so bad. Great store all in all. I love the small town vibes u get at this fareway. I also go there especially for the produce and meat. Always have. Thank you!”

“With grocery prices through the roof elsewhere, aldis still has quality products at pre-pandemic prices. Personally i love that there is less options so i don't have to think too hard about which to grab. Only complaint is that they have automated ordering so when the students leave the fruit and veg sits for a few weeks with replenishment and when the students return things are gone for a while.”
“Great selection of everything you need for a grill out! Scott in particular was great; he made an amazing brisket sandwich for us and was so sweet. Definitely coming back, especially for the chicken wings he recommended.”
“Nice supermarket, organized, fair prices. But there is only one egg brand, which is Hy-Vee, and it is quite expensive. All the male employees greet you cheerfully and say good morning with a smile. However, all the female employees seem to be angry.”
“This place is smaller than some that I've been to but they had EVERYTHING you could want! They had green tea Kit Kats which are hard to find. I was so exited for find kimchi, endless types of dumplings and ramen, plus everything I needed to make pho from scratch! So excited I found this place and get creative with dinners.”

“They should keep more Halal items, such as beef, chicken, and lamb meat, processed food, and relevant Asian and Mediterranean food, so that 11th-grade students will benefit from getting their preferred groceries and stocks.”
“This place is great. Tons of inventory. Lots of options and breadth of product. Great boba selection and more rare ingredients. Other Asian food stores in town don't really compare”
“Excellent grocery store and a mini restaurant (fresh food items) - family owned and they provide great customer care for everyone - Halal food, PK, IN, Middle Eastern grocery items available (fresh and frozen) - They also offer fresh vegetables on alternative weeks (Okra, Gourds, Eddo roots, Eggplants, Beans etc.) - A must weekly stop for my household and should be yours too … الحمد لله ?”

“I’ve shopped at the other asian groceries stores in town and the rest really don’t compare. Uni-Mart is always well-stocked, organized, and fairly priced. I always found what I was looking for.”
“I love coming to this location, it's convenient on my way to work and great for my seasonal decor shopping. Manager? Rod is the best. He is always happy and helpful. I come here because I know I will always have a good interaction.”

“I am writing about the Asian store opposite or next to hyvee here. They have a good amount of basics rice noodles, rice, indian lentils, mochi, rice paper, meat, sauce, veggies, fish cakes, nori sheets. The place is run by a Korean. The store smells of paint or varnish because there’s painting going on and renovation taking place. Shop keepers seem friendly. It’s growing and they stock up new things every so often with Asian kitchen items such as portable stove, ladles, teapots.”
“Miss Madeline Ladehoff was such a joy when she made me my double venti cold brew iced coffee frappe with 4 pumps of white mocha, 4 pumps of caramel with sweet pumpkin cream foam and choccy chips and more caramel, shaken not stirred at th”
“It's a fine Hy Vee. The Wine and Spirits clerks are particularly fun employees to chop it up with. Any time I need help, the folks there are always on the ball. One time some random asshole college student came up to me and tried to recruit me to join his Amway team, but that's mostly just a funny anecdote and has nothing to do with the store. I hope his pyramid scheme fails and he gets punched at an Insane Clown Posse concert.”

“I've been very happy with my experiences here! I have had some difficult orders, complications from doctors, or a whole host of other complex problems with getting my medication to the pharmacy, and the pharmacists have been so extremely helpful in making sure I actually receive my meds when I need them. I have used other pharmacies in the past, and I've really enjoyed this one!”
“A not so hidden gem in Ames Iowa.
Their variety is impressive.
Definitely worth the trip.
Excellent soups, salads, and a nice bakery along with a very nice Gracey selection”
