Stopped by after seeing recommendations for their italian subs from a local facebook group. This…read moreplace is on the outside of Altoona and close to the mall area. This is an interesting setup with a small italian market and a deli counter. It looks like they do a lot of a catering based upon the view into their back of house. While we waited we picked up various speciality items. My son and I both ordered the 12" Pompeii's. This is one of their italian specialty cold cuts and comes with hot peppers. The meats and cheeses are boars head brand, sliced fresh and the sub comes loaded. The roll is a nice dense loaf. The hot peppers add a great kick! We both only ate half of our subs and had leftovers for dinner. They have various other hot & cold subs that we'll try on future visits. The service was helpful and super friendly. They were busy so it took probably 15 minutes to complete the process. Overall, it was a great sub and a welcomed change from the usual chain offerings. My only gripe is there's no in-store seating. If you're local it's a great takeout sub but we wanted to eat them immediately.

We chose a cheese danish and a lady lock for the road. The store has an upstairs and is packed full of lots to look at. They had old time candy, honey, vanilla, kitchen and gift items. Both ladies were super nice.

I would give a five-star review except for the fact that they do not have a restroom. A place like…read morethis, where you could spend hours shopping, needs a restroom. I would have shopped longer, but nature calls, and once you leave to go down the road to find a restroom, you really don't feel like going back. The place is great though - they have just about anything and everything you can imagine. A lot of very unique gift ideas. Some things are a little pricey, but most are reasonable. Don't forget to check the upstairs bargain area. If you can't find something here you like, you aren't looking!

For the locals, there's kitchen and culinary staples a-plenty: bulk dry goods, a well-stocked deli, local jams, jellies and other locally-produced items, and a variety of kitchenware/cookware t'boot. If you're looking for something interesting and/or tasty, it can be found here: cheese ends (just what it sounds like: the first and last cuts of cheese blocks in the deli, offered for a discounted price/lb. and full of a variety of tasty cheeses) gobs (which may be called whoopie pies by the non-native), fresh produce, kerosene lamps, cookbooks, mix'n'match candy aisle, slabs of baking chocolate, etc. Closing recommendation: get a gob. Or two, or three. Once you wake up from the sugar coma you'll thank me.

The last owners Walt and Steph were fantastic and the employees were always soo friendly. This new ownership jacked up the prices, lowered the food quality, and the employees are awful! There's always a different face, never a "hey, how are you?" Nothing. I got a lottery ticket and paid with cash and they girl acted like I was the biggest inconvenience. Threw the money in the drawer and huffed as she had to count out change. This most recent was a pepperoni Stromboli. They are a quarter of the size they used to be and over double the price. I will definitely travel further just to avoid this place anymore. Almost $12 for 6 bites of dough, sauce and pepperoni.

I visited Rutter's for the very first time today. I've lived in Altoona for over 30 years and had…read morealways been a customer of the "other" big convenience chain in town. Today I thought I'd try something different and went to Rutters for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised. The good: the store is nice and large and well organized. There were plenty of employees at work so I didn't have to wait in line for any. The biggest deal is that they have an entire food prep area that was staffed with 4 people who did nothing but make food orders. I placed an order on one of the many monitors, got a drink, paid for everything, and went to the food pick up area expecting to have to wait for my order. It was already waiting for me. So fast! I did not see a self pay kiosk which annoyed me at first, but when I went up to pay there were three registers open and again no waiting!! Very nice!!! Rutters has a large selection of food items. More that the "other" convenience store. Prices vary in comparable selections. Some are more some are less. The saving grace however is that they have a lot more topping choices and most are included with sub so there aren't any surprises in price waiting when the order is actually placed. The not as good: The drinks are slightly higher in price by .10-.30 cents. In general I spent maybe $2 more for lunch than in the "other" place but the many choices and toppings really made up for that. They do have a loyalty reward card like the "other" but I can't really comment on that yet as this was my first visit. I was happy with food quality, choices, and service which more than made up for the slightly higher cost. All in all, Rutter's made a very good first impression on me and I'll definitely be back again.

I don't know…read moremuch about how it was, but I am assuming that this was a welcome addition when the space was vacated. Not sure when that happened, but it could not have been recently. The inside does not look like much has been updated. It's the typical grocery store out there. Fluorescent lights illuminate the aisles, generic looking price tags, and all the items that line any aisle in any grocery store. They do have some pretty great sales, but with any sale, you have to strike at the right time. Prices for items not on sale seem to be the going rate for them in the area. Staff were super polite and I appreciated that.
