My family and I just moved to Monticello. We enjoy our town and like shopping at Faraway. I always find my items, love the sales, and the meat department has amazing cuts. I appreciate the service and nice and clean store. I have tried the pick-up service, and they did a great job finding my items and packing with care. Thank you

They are remodeling the store. It looks very nice. The entire store looks clean everyday of the week. The fruits and veggies as well as meats are all very fresh and good. Fast, friendly, efficient, helpful staff.

The most amazing staff with the cheapest prices on all daily need items :) in town. Also the liquor selection does attract the right customers with some of the lowest liquor prices around :) Stay away from that Great Pastimes located @ 228 N Main St, Monticello, IA 52310

Somehow, it was my first visit to a Fareway. Very helpful staff, decent prices, excellent sales and the young man who brought our bags out to the car was very politeand helpful. Awesome store!

I just wanted to get some dog food and I got to talk into one of the clerks and we were talking about the new Ireland butter. And we talked for awhile and we talked about breaking bread and stuff we just had a nice conversation and I enjoyed it the people in there are so friendly and so nice. A few weeks ago I was in there when I came out I had a flat tire two of the Carry Out Boys tried to change it but they couldn't get the lug nuts off so the one went in and got another guy and he came out and change the tire for me. I thought this was so wonderful of these young boys because they didn't have to do it they were supposed to be working but they were out there trying to help me change a tire. I hope realizes what great help they have

I always, in my 4 visits, have enjoyed the helpfulness of the staff in every dept. Also, the customers whom I encounter are very courteous and friendly. That means so much to me. Everything is clean, no funky smells, and I have only great input...except one. When I visit the Fareway stores, normally my groceries are taken from my cart by the staff, which is a great help to me, since I have rheumatoid arthritis. It's really tough to pick up any given item over 2lbs or so, and it's one of reasons I return to Fareway beyond the staff, the ease, and let's surely not forget the best meat counter ever. Those guys and ladies are top notch. I only feel that comfort, ease of pain, and expediation could be accomplished by updating the checkout. Please, keep in mind that the staff are beyond wonderful. I surely love me some Fareway! Godspeed!!

Fareway’s meat counter is the best! All staff is incredibly polite and helpful. Shopping at Fareway is simple and quick. The size of the store is perfect and they carry most everything you need for your family menu.

Very clean and organized store. I drive about 30 miles one way to get fresh meat so it’s worth it to us. Will pick Fareway over Walmart grocery anyway.

Clean store, well stocked and helpful staff. I love that they have a real meat department, not just a bunch of prepackaged meat. The carry out service is also nice.

Fair prices, good selection of products ( especially meats) for a small town grocery, and friendly service. Plenty of parking as well. Has everything you need.

What a meat counter, I thought I died and gone to carnivore heaven. These butchers are the best, knowledgeable and helpful. This was the busiest section of the store. And their prices are right in line.

Great selection. Meat department is best I've ever shopped. For a small town grocery store this location can't lose.

It used to be know as " Iowa most economical food store" they cant say that anymore, very pricey, limited selection like an overpriced Aldi.

I would like to give a shout out to the Fareway team and customers for this morning. I clearly forgot the 65+ shopping time was early in the morning. I ran in for a gift for someone 65+ I hope that counts. 🤦‍♀️

Their selection is very slim. I've always liked their meats better but most of the other products are over priced
