    Best place to buy groceries in town, period. Maybe it's because I'm in there so often, but they're…read morealways extremely friendly, and it really works as a "one stop" place. They have the alcohol and spirits section, the health food section, a Starbucks, the hot food, Chinese food, and bakery section, and of course, the pharmacy and medicine section. The front desk also does postal services, and you can recycle cans and bottles as well. The store has always been beyond helpful. While I haven't always been met with an "Employee of the Day" attitude (which I would never expect), they've always been pleasant enough and extremely friendly. I use my reusable bags constantly, and cashiers have never had any problem with them. When I point out a price error, a manager is called over and the price is honored. In fact, I went to Starbucks (inside the Hy-Vee) the other day, and while checking out, the cup was knocked onto the ground and spilled all over the floor. I was mortified - to say the least. (Now I wait until I'm done shopping to get my Starbucks). Within seconds, two employees were there cleaning it up, and a manager asked me what coffee it had been. By the time I was swiping my card, he brought me another version of my drink - free of charge. Seriously, an amazing grocery store. When I have to travel around the midwest and go to other Hy-Vees for groceries or whatnot, I'm always sorely disappointed compared to this one. This one has spoiled me.

    Enjoyed shopping at HyVee this week. Appreciated the help and easy checkout with staff. Everyone…read morewas friendly and had great answers to questions. Easy to find healthy options to select from. Cool vibe whether other AM or PM. It did not disappoint! Thank you!

The overall vibe of the place is calming, which helps me in these hectic times. Private parking lot, great layout, helpful staff who know their store. Excellent produce. Terrific deli and meat market. Numerous options that you cannot obtain in most store. Located just West of downtown Ames. I try to stop here every time that I am in Ames, as I find items that I cannot get elsewhere, and they add to my quality of life. Some interesting food options always intrigue me too!

I also love their juice bar and always get a juice to go. It is their hot bar that I love the most but especially their soups! It is hard to find any vegetarian soups but they always have at least one! So far every soup I have tried, I have enjoyed a lot! A few times after getting a small bowl for there, I get a big bowl to go. I also enjoy their deli too. I love how they even have vegan options there too! I don't do much grocery shopping there but usually go for the food lol. It really is a little hidden gem! Ended up becoming a member a few years ago because of how much I love their hot bar! Other part I love, they have some of the most amazing bread made in shop, not always lucky enough to get some but when I do, it has to be best bread around!

One time some random asshole college student came up to me and tried to recruit me to join his Amway team, but that's mostly just a funny anecdote and has nothing to do with the store.

About $35 with tax. Pricey I thought, BUT I needed it to work. Come to find out recently, people have been complaining that companies are PRICE GOUGING for kits that were $15 for a two pack and now are $19 for a two pack. So, yes, Hy-Vee has been doing the same. DO BETTER HY-VEE! This is literally a pandemic. Marcy'sDinerTantrumScale 5/5- NoScreamingKids. NOT CyHawkApproved. They have lot parking. Employee I interacted with was friendly(I always mask, because I'm a RN) The place is clean. Nicely lit. Open till later, but during pandemic, not open all night. So, now the government has made tests free. I'll go there from now on. Stay healthy. Wear your masks, they DO work. My test was negative and I repeated one of the drive through ones next day and that was negative as well.

    10/28/25 1:00 p.m…read more Walk-in/Take Out Food: Our food was delicious! Everything was so full of flavor, and the portion sizes were great for the price. It all tasted so fresh, and the baklava was absolutely to die for! My husband was unsure as to which one he should get, so the gentleman working recommended the selection of baklava that we got. I am so glad that he did because all of it was phenomenal. Service: The service was great. I definitely feel as if they went above what would be considered basic service and were all incredibly friendly and pleasant to interact with. They were quick and efficient and definitely knew what they were talking about. Ambiance: Being a smaller international-type grocery store, it was really pleasant and comfortable to be in. The selection can be overwhelming, but not in a bad way. There is just so much to choose from, and I feel like every time you go in, you will find something new that you didn't see before. The selection of items they have is incredible. It's not overly noisy either, and it smells amazing as soon as you walk in.

The prices are fine, some are a little high and some are less than other places.

    You know, it's tough to appreciate a Super WalMart of the scale that it is in Ames when you are…read moreactually from the Midwest. Why? Well, in the Midwest, I have found, there is one on every corner. For that reason you have about another 10 locations (literally) within a 20 mile driving distance to compare it to. The fact that a small city like Ames (yes people, Ames is pretty small lol) can support two of these beasts is amazing. Coming originally from CA which, to my knowledge, have no Super WalMarts, this place was a godsend. Everything available in one place. Produce is usually pretty decent, and shelves are pretty well stocked. Do you get those special Wal Mart employees? You bet, but you get those at every Wal Mart. Cheap labor means cheaper prices, and the latter is why people come here. Having recently moved to MA, while there are super WalMarts, they don't hold a candle to this Ames (or really any other central IA) location. Dirty, poorly stocked, almost no employees around to help you. Honestly, you Ames folk don't know how stinking good you have it, and I mean that. The simple fact that you have a 24-hour store is awesome! Thank your lucky stars. You have one of the better Wal-Marts in the nation, even though you may not think it is one of the better locations in your area.
