A lot of the steaks are pretty pricey, but their chuck roast is very good value (3 ish pounds ranges from 25-45 dollars depending on fat content).

I had no idea there is a local wagyu shop in town! Last night Eric R. and I attended a HYPE event…read morehere for a wagyu tasting. Our host Tyler shared the history of wagyu beef in Japan, how it made its way to the U.S., and what is different between the two countries in production. Booth Creek's ranch is located just 20 miles away, so the cattle are raised locally. Marbling content is verified for each cow by a lab in Japan! There are three levels of marbling (silver10-15%, gold 16-25%, platinum 25%+). This is not a quality indicator but is along the lines of USDA's select, choice, prime (though the fat content in wagyu is much higher). The store has frozen cases divided by these levels, as well as a frozen bargain bin (20% off) and fresh cases in the middle of the store. The tasting began with beef charcuterie boards: jerky, jalapeno cheese snack sticks, and summer sausage with some cheeses. Then we were served wagyu meatballs cooked in Cox's BBQ sauce and honey from Booth Creek. The second course was a picanha roast, smoked and sliced like a prime rib. It was really close to the prime rib flavor and texture, but at a much better price point. Lastly, Tyler brought out KC strip steaks (platinum level, seasoned with salt and pepper only) that were sous vide at 127 degrees, and seared them on a flat top in beef tallow. After he let them rest for five minutes, he sliced them and we got to try them. They were incredibly juicy and tender, seasoned well. It makes me consider the sous vide method at home though I do not have the tools right now. They offered some bundles and discounts as they kept the shop open late for us. We ended up buying gold label fajita meat and filet mignon steaks plus a bargain bin silver label filet tips. I cannot believe I have access to locally raised quality wagyu beef here in Manhattan! Beef is definitely what I had for dinner last night!

The counter attendants know English well enough to serve native English speakers. The store also offers a 5% discount to students and a military discount.

When paying with cash the cashiers do not offer an itemized receipt and while the meat case needs some general cleaning the food we got from it was fresh and tasted good. A great way to support local business!

That just shows how personable and friendly they are here. The vibe here is very busy and compact, since they have small aisles but it's worth it. I would highly recommend coming here just to look around and see all of the options and fun stuff they have.

Part of the year it is in Pottorf Hall…read moreat Cico Park and in the warmer weather, it is outside at 3rd and Leavenworth in the parking lot across from Dillard's. I have been to both the indoor and outdoor markets. The vendors are very nice. Every type of item expected at a farmer's market is available: meats (including a lamb-specific vendor), farm fresh eggs, vegetables, herbs, spices, bread, local honey. Eric R. and I learned all about farm fresh eggs when a vendor spent lots of time explaining to us about the process, how it differs from store bought eggs, and how the colors are different. We bought a half dozen, 3 brown and 3 blue eggs. They were truly delicious and I could taste a difference. The yolks were so bright! Only one of the eggs had blood spots inside but she told us how to check for those and how to clean them before cooking. The market now offers free coffee in the morning, and runs from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Saturdays. Support our farmers and ranchers and shop here!

The service was good and fast. Generally students are the people working in the facility. The prices are on the steep side especially being on a college campus. Highly recommend stopping here!

I'm a little surprised to find myself giving a Hy-Vee a four star rating in 2025 to be honest. Over…read morethe years my opinion on Hy-Vee in general has gone somewhat downhill for a variety of reasons, but my biggest quip is that it's just super expensive for no reason. That is actually still the case at this location in Manhattan, KS, but it's still an above average Hy-Vee, and I'll get to that soon. The first thing you'll notice at this Hy-Vee is that it's large, it appears to be fairly new, or at least very well maintained, but it looks like any old Hy-Vee from the outside. We stopped here as my mother in law lives in Manhattan and we were on the hunt for a veggie tray to take to our family Christmas. We walked in and despite living near a big modern Hy-Vee in Overland Park, this one really puts ours to shame in terms of feeling updated and fresh. We found the veggie trays and they were all beautifully put together and fresh. The thing that was terribly upsetting? They were also $25. With no other options we purchased it at that price. I was wondering if veggie trays are just this expensive now, and for the record, I went grocery shopping at Costco and Whole Foods in the KC metro the next week and found veggie trays at Costco to be around $10 and believe it or not veggie trays at WHOLE FOODS to be around $12 - so less than half their counterpart at a central Kansas Hy-Vee. Honestly stunning. Aside from the prices this is an excellent grocery store. If I lived here I'd likely return as they had way more prepared foods than ours does, and it seemed well stocked with fresh produce. They also still had self checkout which I love.
