I'm not the target demographic for Famfare Kitchen. My husband and I are empty nesters, and the…read moremeals are more than we would eat in a single sitting. Famfare produces hot meals for families and distributes them at pickup spots throughout the metro. I WISH they'd been around when I had a house full of kids, but I'm a regular patron of them now. My husband owns a business about a mile from the Kitchen, and every Wednesday, we cater lunch for the office staff. We're not talking subs or pizzas, we have nice meals that bring employees from the field into HQ to get some actual decent food. We found Famfare by accident but quickly realized their meals are an enormous hit with our staff, and as someone who knows their way around a kitchen, I can tell you they know what they're doing. Libby and Jen were kind enough to accommodate our requests to have their meals picked up during the noon hour, and they are piping hot when we get them. The salad dressings are made in-house and are exceptional, and the loaves of bread are fresh and tasty. These aren't just boring meals either...Beef Stroganoff, Grilled chicken pitas with buttery rice pilaf, Thai eggroll bowls, meatloaf...they're all delicious and well crafted. This would be a great gift to give someone who needed help providing meals once a week or a gift to yourself to cover Wednesday dinners. The shop also has a freezer full of soups, breakfast casseroles, and other meals. The meals are packaged thoughtfully and ready for travel, so you need not worry about a mess in the car. Take it home, quick reheat, and an even faster assembly, and you have a delicious meal for the entire family-effortless!

Super clean on the inside. Food was really good all around. Service was friendly. Felt for the crew as it was super busy but they were doing a great job. Pizzas were good but the chicken and mashed potatoes (imo) were even better. The drinks are self service with a lot of options. There is a soft serve machine also. You can eat and be entertained for hours on end here!

Major let down! We typically spend 100$ in games alone. 75$ plus dollars in food,,,, This manager needs a lesson in business!! Oh my bad,, on their website it says "may" have to purchase buffet to play games. I guess since my daughter is a young autistic adult,, they made the decision to use that disclaimer. We went 3 weeks ago and they let us play games and order out!!! Wow!

Included is a little kitchen store with dairy theming. Great stop for dairy fans of all ages. Prices have increased for the soft serve ($3.99 for a cone) but the feel and service are the same.

I learned about this from a facebook business that had a sandwich here. I researched in yelp, and…read morewas in Hastings anyway for work and passed it and came back. I ordered a Grilled Cheese panini and added turkey. I ate one half and brought the other half home to my son. Fellow Yelper Garrett Z recommended this Scotcharoo ice cream and I bought a pint. Also cranberry bread from Hanish Bakery in Red Wing. The soft service icecream seemed spendy at $3.99. They have a bathroom, which was nice. Very good panini, seemed expensive as no chips were included but portion was nice. Gooey cheese!

Plenty of parking. The store is super clean and the shelves are well-stocked. I agree with some…read moreother reviewers that the prices are high, but given the caliber of brands and high quality items, it is what it is. Out of all the sections in Kowalski's, we loved the artisan cheese & the bread sections the most. What a feast for both the eyes and the nose!!! There is nothing better than being able to select ingredients for a meal with all your senses, and that's what's missing at 75% of markets where everything is mass produced and vacuum sealed to last for eons. The staff were also very welcoming and helpful. If only we had Kowalski's in NW WI. . . {sigh}

They also have the best and freshest pico de gallo and guac! They also have a wonderful supply of gluten free brands and goodies. The Kowalski's team is friendly and helpful too. I also love that they have their own Starbucks inside and a great area to eat or drink your coffee. I also love that they give back to the community that they're located in. Nothing but positive things to say about this store!

I've shopped for regular things but I like the fact they have excellent choices in fruit, veggies and bakery. Big and well stocked, I always find whatever is on my list.

As I went toward the checkouts, I saw the spices and herbs section. I was thrilled to find celery flakes available, and for a reasonable cost! That ingredient is weirdly hard to find around the region. I went to the self check-outs. One of my cheeses had a smeared barcode that wouldn't scan. I hit the "help" button on the screen, and a checker immediately came over to manually input that item. While I was in the grocery side, my husband checked out the liquor store. He bought a number of beers to take home, including some that were new to him. We were both quite pleased with our shopping experience here and would stop in again on another trip to Hudson.
