Even in the worst weather, the wiper fluid bucket is full, the scrub-and-squeegee tools in good shape, and towels in the dispenser.

If you have a question, the clerks know exactly what is in stock, and check out customers quickly.

I once went in with an injured foot and the cashier even went and retrieved the item I needed. Can't say enough good things about the staff. They have a good snack selection, a wide variety of fountain soda options, and keep the place fairly clean and updated. I make a point to go here rather than anywhere else in town.

Straub's Fine Grocers is the Erewhon of St. Louis--minus the overpriced smoothies, plus a chicken…read moresalad so legendary you'd think it was smuggled out of the Louvre. People here don't just like it--they lose their minds over it. I've witnessed stampedes toward the deli case that would make Black Friday look like a polite book club. Mention you've had better and you'll be shunned harder than someone who double-dips at a garden party. The thing is... the chicken salad is fine. Solid, even. But I've made better at home, barefoot in pajama pants, with a jar of mayo that was flirting with its expiration date. Shopping here feels like you've been invited into a members-only grocery lodge. The produce is flawless, the cheese selection could make a Parisian weep, and every item has a backstory worthy of a TED Talk. You're not just buying bread--you're procuring a "heritage grain boule, hand-shaped by sun-kissed artisans during a waxing moon." That wedge of cheese? It's from a small goat named Gerald who only eats lavender and listens to classical music. Of course, this level of "curated grocery chic" comes at a cost. I left with a bag the size of a throw pillow and a receipt that looked suspiciously like my car payment. But the place is immaculate, the staff is gracious, and the people-watching is world-class--equal parts country club and culinary cult meeting. Bottom line: Come for the spectacle, marvel at the devotion to chicken salad, and if you're feeling dangerous... casually say, "I think I've had better" and watch civilization collapse in the dairy aisle.

Hot dog grills did not have anything wrong that I could see but if there are bugs then you can bet they have been on there as well.

Whenever I am in Sparta, I will stop by. I may even make a special trip to just shop here. Yep, I was that impressed with all their goodies.
