“Fareway Stores: Exceptional Service and Top-Quality Offerings

Faraway Stores are a breath of fresh air. While other grocery stores, used Covid to drop their customer service levels, Fareway never followed suit.

Fareway continues to excel in delivering outstanding customer service and attention to detail. Every time I shop there, I'm impressed by the friendly, plentiful staff who are always available to assist, whether it's answering questions or helping to find an item. A standout feature is their commitment to carry-out service, something you don't see often nowadays. They ensure that you're taken care of from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave.

Fareway still staffs real people at their checkout lines, offering a personal touch that's increasingly rare. You never feel rushed, and there’s always a friendly face greeting you.

Fareway's meat department is also top-notch. Overall Fareway delivers a shopping experience that’s not just convenient but genuinely pleasant. Definitely the only store I shop at for my grocery needs.”

“The Chinese food at Hy Vee is surprisingly good.

Very popular with the military from Camp Dodge, just up the road.

Parking: A large grocery store with ample parking.

Kid-friendliness: Ultimately, it's a grocery store, so there are always kids there. And if the kids don't like Chinese food there is also a section with American food (potatoes and gravy, mac and cheese, meatloaf, etc.)”

“My brother and I recently received excellent service from this grocery store right before Thanksgiving. Also, the adjacent liquor store had a nice selection of nonalcoholic beers, with a very helpful staff.”

“I've been living in Johnston for almost 5 years and using this pharmacy. I don't have any complaints that I can recall. They're normally nice, friendly and professional. If anything I've been the one that's been occasionally grouchy and they've handled it professionally, so thank you very much Hy-Vee pharmacy!”
