Its fine for a local grocery store. A little more pricy and less choices than bigger stores. If you want convenience, this is your place. Friendly employees and quick checkout!

This is the biggest Fareway I have been to. Did not disappoint! Went to get some good meat and found some stuffed pork chops for dinner. The meat department was very busy but I only had to wait 5 minutes!

The meat counter is fantastic. Most of the meat choices that you would want are readily available. I was specifically looking for thick-cut fillet mignon, without bacon. I settled on 10 flat iron steaks. The produce was absolutely beautiful and the shelves were stocked with everything to pull off a fantastic meal for my wife and father-in-law.

I really like Fareway. Their meat dept is 2nd to none. I would do all my grocery shopping there if they were more dependable about having the items I need. They have very fair prices and great people. I would also rather just take my own groceries out.

Review №98

Newer store with a large parking lot and easy entry and exit to streets. Fareway is known for its meat department and this location lives up to expectations with a large variety of meat products, great staff, and excellent prices. In practically every other grocery department though, Fareways selection, while ample, is not on the same par as Hy-Vee or even Wal-Mart. Produce will be fresh, but again, significantly less variety than Hy-Vee. Fareway is a bit of a throwback, no-frills type store, but you are likely to find 90% or more of what you need here and save money and time in the process. They have excellent specials and prices are typically lower than Hy-Vee across the board. Very clean, well-staffed, and they still carry your groceries to your car if you want them to.
