This convenience store features a Godfather's Pizza as well as an A&W. Freshly made root beer!…read more Friendly service at the A&W too, but that's where the praise stops. I stopped in after a soccer match and waited 17 minutes to get a burger and fries, because they didn't have nearly enough help to handle the postgame rush. Would hate to see what the line is like when American football is played. The interior of the store is reminiscent of an old-time general store. I'll be back up in Vinton in a couple of weeks and give them another chance. But for now, I'd have to say you are better off going to another establishment in town.

This is my "home" Hy Vee. You can find some colorful people here. Sometimes they're even salty and…read morehard, like one of those sourdough tooth crackers that Snyder's makes. I'm going to guess they can make for tough customers. It's a pretty clean store and like all Hy Vees it's well stocked. They sell Don Javier's chips from Silvis, IL or somewhere over there by the Quad Cities. They're expensive, but they're the closest thing to the chips in a Mexican restaurant you can find. But I digress. The meat counter is good, there's no blood on floor on the customer side of the counter. The bakery same. Restaurant area ditto. I like Hy Vee's deli/restaurant but... man, the Chinese or "Hy-Chi" can be sketchy. It's not the employees' fault I'm sure. It's whatever recipes they use. Then again, it just might be Chinese food generally and it may be personal. The liquor store is great. You want booze, you got booze. This keeps the hard pretzel people I mentioned earlier happy. The staff is top notch. There's a really friendly woman who works here that is from Bosnia. She's got a clipped accent and based on what I saw I think she knows her regulars. I think working here probably requires a thick skin because you've got a mix of the Kirkwood students, the NewBo neighborhood (I assume - because that Hy Vee just north of down town - shuddering - it's a lil rough), and the pretzelish people mentioned above. Almost every time I got here I'm with my love which means I'm going to ask her loud enough for the cashier to hear what her name is today. Or whether she is using the credit card we found on the street the other day. Or if she can sign for the pseudo this time because I'm at my limit this time. Or "hurry up - I can see a cop and the Judge warned us what would happen if we broke the restraining order". Or the always reliable, "please don't hit me when we get out to the car - I'll be good". Granted sometimes the staff is dumbstruck, but most of the time they just smile and/or laugh and enjoy the drama. This is a good place to shop. Tell them Dick sent you.

The only reason I didn't give them a 5 is some of their prices are a little high at times and the wine and spirits is not as good as other Hy-Vees.

Busy grocery store on 16th Ave SW, convenient to stop by on the way out of town. While the variety…read moremay not be as big as the other chains, you should be to get what you need to prepare your meal. The meat department is always rocking with butchers who have been in staff for many years. They have a great supply of meats, and they are always ready to cut a piece of meat to size. They have experience and it shows. The front end staff are very able, but it can get crowded near the registers during the busy time. If you need help taking your purchase to your car they are always ready, and I do mean always. Nice place to shop if you're ready for good prices without all of the fluff.
