Pretty good for deli

I had hope for this place, mainly when it comes to price. 5.99 for a 2 piece box meal seemed alright. It was ok, the first couple of times when there was an employee who seemed to care about selling the food (and I'm not talking about sucking up to the customer). What I mean by that is if there were one or two employees milling about, they would not pay any attention to the people at the counter who really wanted to buy some fried chicken. I kind of don't understand why you wouldn't, especially when there's a full stock of fried goods right there behind the glass. I get that it's a hard job blah blah blah, but the minimum effort (selling the chicken to me) would have been great. Lawrence has a problem with fried chicken; Dillons and Chick Filet are the only ones that seem to stay consistent when it comes to this food item. I bet Checkers / Champs fired the good employee for caring too much about selling fried chicken to people.

Loooove this grocery store! It was way bigger than I anticipated and tons of selection with lots of unique ethnic sections as well.

Very pitiful excuse for customer service. They decided that because the dates on my ten dollar off coupon were "printed wrong" (my coupon was not expiring for three more months) that they would not honor it even though it was not expired by any means. Very happy to say I will not be revisiting this store again.

Although I've always appreciated Checkers, I rarely find myself here. Probably because I have to drive another mile from my house, hardly an inconvenience. So yesterday paid a visit there and was mentally jarred by the fact that I found a favorite sparkling water that's always in the refrigerator and a whopping $1 less per bottle than where I normally obtain it. Ouch. Wasn't even aware it was carried here. Then found a couple more items, made a stop at my usual destination solely to check prices. I've getting gouged for the same products. So, yea, the sort of somewhat underwhelming interior of the store, the bag your own groceries at checkout and no frills display--admit it, we shop with our eyes-- are there for a reason if you can go and save enough to fill up your tank with gas in a week. Actually, who drives anywhere these days? I go around town on the same tank for a month. I digress. Checkers is going to start getting more of my business in the future, for sure. And yes, the produce is miles better than the pricier Dillon's (pretty much the dominant grocer in the city) in both directions.

Most of the food didn't look good in the case. I threw caution to the wind and ate here anyway, picking the best-looking items, but I had some misgivings about this meal that were so strong I didn't eat it all. I should have known what I was in for when I saw the wedges appeared to have been in the case for hours longer than they should have. Was hungry though, and now am not hungry. Three stars, but only just.

The chicken was crispy coated, tender, and cooked clear through. The mac and cheese had a strong cheddar flavor. The green beans were cooked in a meat broth and were very good.

This store brings back a bunch of memories for me as a child. The original site was a former Rustys IGA. My grandfather was the General Manager for Rusty and worked as GM for 50 years at several of the stores Rusty owned. My grandfather, Cecil Rogers hired Jim Lewis (Checkers Owner) when he was in college. Jim eventually bought the site and expanded the lot to build the store. Jim, Terry, Rita all worked for my grandfather and I went to work for Jim Lewis when I started college in Lawrence. I started as a cashier and quickly was promoted to the front end supv/cash office. Jim and Rita were to very special people. Both could be tough but it taught me eberything I know today about running a business. I enjoyed walking through the store today. The store hasn't changed much minus the old video rental section. Still the best produce and meat departments in town. Still the cleanest grocery store in town also. Sadly I didnt see Jim during my visit. I'm not sure if he still runs things on a daily basis but you can see his mark. I am sure I will make one more trip into town from the lake before we pack up the travel trailer. Maybe I can catch him the next trip. Rusty and my grandfather have been gone along time but they both would love seeing how well the store is thriving. Who says you cant compete against the big supermarkets.
