Had everything I needed and very friendly. Service anymore is so important especially when we see competition giving less but charging much more. In Fareway you still see the extra effort in helping you with anything you ask. Yes they have taken the award from Hyvee A SMILE IN EVERY AISLE. On another short visit it was busy and again NO waiting to get checked out and smiles everywhere. Nice job guys. Fyi: several new faces and good training on new people.UPDATE: I was asked if things have changed. Yes Fareway has done some updates with some new cooler cases. They're nice. I have got to mention this. I thought maybe the company was going to skip the self checking program. Well I guess they caved to pressure and put them in. I will say that it seemed a little better here as far as it going smoothly. Check it out. I've always been a fan of Fareway. They have us in mind. The customer.

Best meat department in town. Great people who get you what you want, the way you want it packaged. Then add friendly full service checkout and delivery to your vehicle. Great grocery store.

It is a store with very friendly workers, you can always find a worker to help you if you need help as they're on the floor around most isles and if you look like you need help they ask you if you do. Usually has pretty good deals, prices are competitive with bigger chains though some are higher as it is a smaller chain but all in all great variety of products at reasonable prices. Their meat counter has great choices and quality products, nice sized cuts too.

Love shopping in the store. Shelves are always fully stocked, the meat department is wonderful and always looks clean and neat. But the best part is the wonderful people who work there. Always friendly, helpful and polite

I have gotten to know the employees of Gateway well over all of the years that I have shopped there. They are courteous and helpful. Produce people can tell you what is good. Checkers seem like old friends.

I love getting my groceries 5here best meat in town ...i dont like the idea of people having to work on holidays and Sundays ...I've always admired the fact that they werent money hungry stores and give there employees Sundays and holidays off. Please stay with your original standards that has always been family first.
