“Unique small grocer with bulk spices, coffees and teas, seasonings, HUGE variety of olive oils, old-time candy, great prices, and super friendly owners. Love this little shop in Dubuque, Ia.”
“As all my followers know, I reserve 5 stars for those establishments that are truly exceptional.i attended a graduation party where they served Cremer's pulled pork and other meats. Cremer's definitely stood out. The meat was very moist and flavorful, and the barbecue sauce was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Cremer's meats and I look forward to enjoying their other meat products.”
“It’s the only store of its kind in Dbq. We mainly go for the produce and eggs, but they have decent selection of all things organic with friendly staff that’s more than willing to help.”
“Fairway is my absolute favorite grocery store in Dubuque, great quality food, super friendly staff, excellent variety, they even offer to carry your groceries out to your vehicle and put them in, I couldn’t be happier with this grocer! Make sure to hit up their bakery;)”
“I love the prices..but i go shopping at the Asbury location as I feel their staff are much nicer and theres always products there..no empty shelves unless they are starting to put out seasonal stuff. I used to shop at the one by Dodge and Hwy 20 but stopped going there after I placed my cart in front of one of the staffs box cages.( there were people on both sides looking at the veggies) then my cart was MIA! The employee..instead of just moving it to the side pushed it way over to the other side...how rude was that. So the Asbury location is farther but my go to Aldis”
“We don't have Hy-Vee's where I'm from but I enjoyed shopping here, the store was very well stocked and clean with helpful employees. I was able to get my groceries and a hot lunch and a coffee all in one stop. This will be my go-to store when I'm in the area about once a month 👌”
“Very clean and organized. Employees R helpful, courteous, knowledgeable. There aren't boxes and stock clogging up the aisles like in some dollar stores. Everything is almost always very well stocked. Their prices absolutely can not B beaten. Their helium balloons R available for virtually any and all occasions and holidays. Plus the price is ridiculously cheap-$2!! Jumbo balloons R slightly more money, but still incredibly reasonable. Their birthday area is amazing. Tons of cake candles, an ungodly amount of gift bags, bows, cards 4 every occasion and holiday. Lots of items for birthday goodie gift bags. I love to go down there and roam the aisles for new, interesting and intriguing items to buy and try. Snacks, beverages, candy, food items. Today I saw THE ABSOLUTE CUTEST teeny tiny containers of Nutella! The perfect size 4 a purse, a car, a kid's lunch box, a work desk. I'm allergic to hazel nuts, but I SO wanted 2 buy one, they were THAT DARN CUTE!! And they have an amazing section of trick or treat candy 4 ridiculous prices. And I ALWAYS buy my Christmas gift bags down there. I'll buy like 30 at a time. They R beyond cute. There's a huge array available. Something for any and everyone's taste. And a really nice variety of sizes as well.”
“Great neighborhood grocery store that’s impeccably clean and well kept. Nice produce, frozen foods and overall selection. I think it has a more welcoming, less rushed feel to it than the big stores. In many ways it’s a nostalgic and refreshing change!”
“They have done an AMAZING rehab of this store - I was mind-boggled! It's gorgeous, bright and opulent inside. I got back to my hotel late at night and all the restaurants were closed. HY Vee has a huge selection of pre-made, delicious food choices. Grab a fork, I forgot!”
“Love this grocery store. If your hungry and don't feel like cooking and a little tired of another fast food burger. Then this should be your go to place. They offer a whole roasted chicken for $6.00 if your a member. At least a dozen different types of salads. Also offer a choice of hot sides. And if your just in the mood for a sandwich they have a large selection of cold cuts and many types of cheese. Grab a bag of chips and your ready for a fast dinner menu.”
“Abby did our wedding flowers, and they were absolutely gorgeous! We got so many compliments on them. She met with me one-on-one to discuss my wishes. I had a vision in my head and she produced it perfectly! She was very easy to communicate with, and the flowers were very reasonably priced.”
“Have large variety of everything. Decent prices. Only gripe at this time is isles r so tight no room when the u-boats of boxes sit in isles. They need to up their pay.”
“Picking up a grocery order through door-dash this morning, and the man loading into my car was so nice, noticed that something didn't look right with the order, and immediately got me a new one! What a great way to start my morning :) Thank you pick up man! 04/06/22 at 9:50 A.M Give this man a raise!”
“I like dollar general but lately I think they need to take a look at their price tags. I mentioned to a clerk sometime ago that their beef jerky sticks were mark 2.50, I get charge 3.75 and brushed off. Their sinus medicine is marked 4 but was charged 4.50. Their website says they got 5 bags of entenmann's cinnamon donuts but none can be found.”
“It was a significant step up from one of the other locations I visited. Items were put on the correct shelves, and better yet the cashier working the front was polite/respectful. I do intend on returning to this store in the near future when I go past it.”
“Lady at the counter was very helpful, needed antacid and she directed me and my friend to the exact section. Self checkout, on the other hand, was a bit of a pain to work with initially, but the attendant was also very helpful.”

“Walmart is convenient. Need something? Try a Walmart near you and find out who lives around you? At this particular one. You will find 5 star workers BABY!!!”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
