UPDATE: This review is for the BIG PINEY location…read more This was our chosen gas stop en route up to the Tetons area. We were pleasantly impressed with the market and deli. What a sweet shop for the locals and the travelers. It has a country store vibe. The ladies were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed sitting outside to eat the pizza we purchased. And we look forward to eating the cheesecake later. The gas was the best priced around which was a bonus. The only drawback was that the internet was down so it was cash only. Fortunately we had some to make our purchases.

After driving a good 6 hours home to Colorado from Idaho, my husband and I found our tummies…read moregrumbling. Both craving a sandwich, we settled on Obo's (because Subway sucks) and were pleasantly surprised with our experience - here's why! ++ Obo's is both a meat market, deli and store all in one - offering everything your heart could desire. Fresh cuts of locally sourced steak? All yours! All the deli meat you could want? Come on over! The store offers a variety of artisan crafts, local trinkets and groceries too! Because were there for lunch, we opted for house made sandwiches in the deli. ++ The sandwich menu - although small - is awesome, with the option to build your own sandwich too. I settled on the Italian which was piled high with allllll the meats, cheese, hot peppers and drizzled with balsamic dressing on a massive house made bun, while my husband settled on the traditional ham sammie which was just as delicious! I was far too hungry to take a picture of mine, so a picture of my husbands will suffice! ++ Although more expensive, you get what you pay for. The quality of meat supersedes everything in the area, as they freshly cut the meat on the spot for each sandwich. YUM! +/- The service in the deli was pretty harsh. Although the women behind the counter were busy and made their way through the line of customers, they were NOT friendly. The woman who greeted us just starred our way and then said "what do you want!" with a frown on her face. We quickly ordered and got out of the way, which proved to be a good decision. Having worked in the service industry, I get being in the weeds, but being nice goes along way. - No one, I repeat, no staff members in the deli were wearing masks or abiding by any social distancing. Even most guests who were waiting in line to pay weren't wearing masks, which is bonkers to me. Only the cashiers wore masks and one made a polite comment to my husband and me as we were the only customers rocking them. Yikes! Despite the lack of COVID measures, I'd return for another bomb to-go sandwich at Obo's.

The Sausage BB that my sister ordered was filled with great tasting ingredients, however the Bacon BB that I received was nicely filled with egg, but a little more bacon would have been better so each bite would have some. The hot sauce packets were not that great, a salsa version would be better. On Friday when we got the Breakfast Burritos, we saw a sign for a Burnt Ends Brisket Burrito which sounded really good. We stopped again on our way back that Sunday and ordered the BEBB. SO GOOD! Filled with great seasoned diced brisket and some Jack Cheese. I wish I had bought another to take home to eat later. Will definitely be stopping again.

It's well organized, the employees are kind as well as quick and efficient. The groceries are always good and fresh; however, the deli can be a hit or miss. We got a pre-made enchilada dish that was a definite miss. I don't know if something had been expired or it was made incorrectly, but I would steer clear of them for a quick minute and just go with grabbing your own groceries and making the food yourself. Spacious aisles so you're not bumping into each other, nice carts that don't have squeaky wheels, plenty of parking, and other essentials can be purchased like cleaning supplies, medicines, and candy. Yes, treats will always be in the essential category. TIPS & TRICKS: * Don't forget your pull off the coupons and use them right then and there, there are typically stickers on the food that give you "$2 off" but you need to rip them off.

We were staying in the area for a family reunion and it was nice to have this little market nearby…read more We were able to find everything we needed. Some family members ordered a very large order of fried chicken from the deli and it was delicious! Very crispy and moist, it was a big hit with our group of 42 people. We were a little shocked when we arrived that there was a gas type substance in the air of the store that looked like smoke when we arrived. It smelled awful and burned our eyes and lungs. I heard that they released something from the floor of the store and it released some sort of gas into the air. I'm not sure why it was necessary to do that during business hours but we couldn't get out of their quick enough.

Have been overcharged on several occasions at this store. Not cashier mistakes, but flat out…read moreincorrect prices that don't match shelf or sign prices. Four times I know of, today being $2.18 higher than the advertised price on the sign right by the product. Customer service is more of a disservice. Many cashiers are cold and unwelcoming, rarely smiling or greeting you other than a sentence fragment of "reward number?" Produce is often very close to spoiled. Many meat products are the same, not very fresh. I have thrown away meat before because it smelled pretty strong once I got it home and opened it up. Overall the prices are high and they justify that since this is a "remote" area according to one employee that overheard me talking about high prices. He seemed almost offended I dared to comment on high prices and spent a few minutes scolding and informing me on the matter. Tourists may think no big deal, but it sure stinks when this is our only option as a resident in Montpelier. After today's experience, I will no longer shop at any Broulim's no matter how convenient they may be and I will instead go to Soda Springs (22 miles) to an alternative store.
