    I stopped in this "Old Neighborhood" and village market on Wednesday October 23rd while in route to…read morea few wineries for some pretzels and Chex mix. What a nice, clean and organized store with pleasant "local" employees working. I noticed while looking for the snack isle that everyone knows someone in here (except me lol). It does not totally compare in size to my local Kroger or Meijer, yet Ken's Village Market is sufficient enough to satisfy customers looking for many foods, cereals, bakery, deli and other items on a weekly or weekend shopping basis. While power walking to shop I noticed a nice deli, bakery and weekly sale items in the main area. A familiar brand from my Value Center store back home that was sold which caught my eye. The old name "Spartan" Brand which is now called "Our Family" was displayed in the center area with canned fruit and vegetables on sale. ( see photo). Too bad I wasn't shopping with a list to grab a dozen. I saw a pharmacy counter for the local residents which is necessity here in this town. I also saw a shopper in a electric scooter so that is helpful for the handicap. I found the snack isle with many well known name brands as well as "Family= Spartan." My favorite "Snyder Pretzels" was on sale 2/$4.00 so I grabbed 2 different styles: Rods and Mini and also one regular bag (Blue) of Chex Mix. The liquor or booze shelves are directly across from the snacks, so how convenient and perfect is that idea for all party and munchie animals. :) When checking out, this store has a "U-Scan" area so I was paying without waiting in line. My snack shopping experience was successfully completed in a total of 15 minutes. Ken's Village Market is a bookmark when in this small town. Their store hours are: Monday thru Saturday 8 am to 9 pm and also Sundays 10 am to 5 pm. P.S. When exiting the parking lot I saw a resident shopper saving gas by riding his unicycle to this store. I hope he shops for 3 items or less ?? To keep balanced :)

    The best store around. Anything you might need is in this store. The Bakery is the best.read more

    When purchasing groceries in Boyne City there are a few options but we love perusing this natural…read morestore as we always find amazing yummy items that we can eat without guilt! They have produce, frozen, refrigerated and canned items that will make any meal a delight. We can find alternative milks and butter, gluten free pastas that are the best kind and all for a pretty reasonable price. There are a few discounts if you belong to a co-op (anywhere in the world we were told), but honestly for what you get it's not too costly in comparison. We love their brown rice gluten free pasta and sauces which can be an easy dinner while on vacation, or we can splurge with some dairy free ice cream or gelato. Yum! If you haven't been in but want to try out something good for you that is also delicious we recommend this store!

    Don't get me wrong, I love the Grain Train, and I go there just about daily now, but you cannot…read morecompare it to the warehouse grocery store. With that said, I personally love the Grain Train due to how close it is to where I am staying, how I can easily find local produce and products there (which I fully support), and the friendly staff. There is a small corner where you can get bulk items such as oatmeal, nuts, popcorn, etc. if that's more your speed. They also keep a small fridge in the back for a selection of pre-made cold meals and sides. Again, due to its small size, it is pretty limited on what it offers, but it covers a basic grocery haul. Also, items are typically listed at a higher premium than a standard grocery store because of the local and organic quality of its products. I would recommend dropping by if only to look around and see what's available if you want to shop locally.

    I remember when the location of this Family Fare Supermarket was Glen's Market and it was great…read more.. I was hoping for a decent shopping experience when we recently stopped by on a Saturday afternoon, but was extremely underwhelmed. Upon walking in, the market seems outdated and not the cleanest... My family was antsy to get to our destination after a four hour drive, so we were hoping for a quick grocery run, but it was far from quick. They have the basics but not all of the products / brands we were looking for... We added some beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) to our cart, as well as some snacks and went to check out. We chose the shortest line, put our items on the conveyer belt and then were told that the register could not take credit card - only cash or check. Annoying but my husband was willing to pay with cash, so we stayed in that line vs. finding another line to wait in. When it was our turn, we were then told that they were going to reboot the register and that we should move to another lane. We did that and then when I went to pay and showed my license, they had an issue with entering that information, so it literally took another 10 minutes to figure that out. I felt bad for the employee working the register as it was not her fault, clearly, but it was not a good customer experience shopping here. Needless to say, if you have options to shop for your groceries elsewhere, I would advise doing so.
