I was so impressed with Gooseberries the first time I arrived in Grants Pass, I moved here from…read moreNebraska just to live within walking distance of it. Well, that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but five years after my first impression of the store, Im still thrilled that I live so close to a great organic grocery store. When you live in Nebraska and the closest grocery store is 45 minutes away from you, and the closest store with a moderate selection of organic products is almost 2 hours away, you really appreciate a store like this in a town like this where there are many organic options to choose from. What caught my eye that first time, and it hasnt changed over the past five years: an excellent selection of products I actually use. No having to figure out "is this organic?" when looking at the produce, where some is organic and some isnt; its all organic here. Wide aisles, sparkling floors. Staff who have become friends. Everything is so clean. Theyll special order for you. And for me, no having to drive 2 hours to find "something, anything" thats organic. Yes, there are other stores in town that offer organic choices. But for a complete selection of everything I need, from sources I trust, that I know are always going to be there, PLUS a Senior Discount Day on Thursdays and fitness club discounts on Fridays, to me Gooseberries cant be beat. Shop local, shop the independent businesses; keep those businesses prospering, even if it costs a little more. Its worth it in the long run.

My husband and I stopped in on July 3rd to buy sausages, buns, and chili for the 4th. While cooking…read morethe next day, we opened the bun bag to find mold covering several of the buns. The date on the package: June 2026. The day after that, we discovered the chili had expired in March 2026. After the holiday weekend, we called the store. The employee who answered the phone told us to come in that week to talk to the owner, Craig. When I went in, the cashier went to speak with the owner, who talked loudly enough for me to overhear him angrily question whether I was local (I said, yes I live here), then he accused me of trying to scam him out of money. His actual words were "SCAM-NEEDS MONEY." He agreed only to replace the items and not offer a refund, since I did not have a receipt. We have been customers here for 4 years and am rarely if ever offered a receipt. When I went to grab replacements off the shelf, every can of that brand of chili had expired in February or March 2026. This was July. I brought the expired cans to the cashier and asked him what to do since they were all expired and he said "I don't care, get a different brand." Many other brands were expired too. I managed to find one can of a different brand expiring this month and took it. Not a single package of hot dog buns had a July date. All of them were from June. The excuse offered: "They were frozen, we add our own stickers with new dates to the back." Except ours grew mold in under 48 hours. We will never shop here again under this ownership and after sharing my experience, it sounds like many locals have had negative experiences and do not shop here. If you choose to shop at the Ruch Country Store, check the dates on everything you buy here, and ask for a receipt. Accusing loyal customers of running a scam while your shelves are stocked with expired food that can make people sick is disgraceful. If just need the bare essentials, the market a few doors down will treat you better. This store is the real scam.

My wife and I stopped in on July 3rd to get hot dogs, buns, and chili for the 4th. The following…read moreday while cooking, we found the chili to be expired in March of 26. No big deal, mistakes happen, we just didn't get to have chili dogs. The following day I open the buns to find mold over several of the remaining in the bag. Check the date and it says June 26. So now we're a little ticked off and call the store, a cashier answers and she says that the owner wasn't in that day and because we didn't have a receipt (we've never been offered one in over 4 years of coming here) that we should come in during the week and he would take care of it. Wife goes in and is met with resistance from the cashier because of the lack of receipt. He goes and talks to the owner who spoke loud enough for my wife to overhear him question if we were even local to the area and then say that we were probably just trying to scam him out of money. He only agreed to replace the items for us. Cashier tells her we can replace the items and to grab them off the shelf. All 15 or 20 cans of that brand of chili were also expired in March or Feb of 26, as were a lot of the other brands. She was able to find a can that expired this month so she took it. None of the other hot dog buns had even a July expiration date, all from June. "But they were frozen so the shelf life is longer than that." Okay, except they were moldy in less than 48 hours. This overall experience has ensured I will never shop here again until there are new owners (there will be with how he runs things). But I felt compelled to leave this review for the rest of our community in hopes that the ones who cannot go to other stores will at least check dates on their food and ask for receipts. It's disgusting to act the way he did knowing full well the store is packed with expired food that can make people sick or worse. Buy your beer from the market just a few doors down if that's all you need, because this store is the true SCAM!!

This place is right on the NW corner of an intersection.. probably the main intersection in town :D I stayed at Lone Mountain RV Park, which is right behind this Country Store. We needed change for the showers so we ran up to this store and even though they weren't open yet for another hour, the people kindly gave us change. We dropped by after packing up our campground for tea on the way out of town. They were making homemade cookies fresh out of the oven and I couldn't resist buying one, it smelled SOO GOOD in there. I got chocolate chip, which just finished baking, she was making peanut butter and oatmeal chocolate chip later on. I would have bought one of each I think if they were ready! Damage for the Two Leaves and a Bud tea and gigantic fresh cookie : a whopping $1.75! This would have been $5 back in Victoria. Just one of the reasons I love Oregon. Oh yeah, the cookie didn't let me down.. crispy on the outside, chewy and soft on the inside. Perfect.

On one visit, a clerk refused to sell me hot food from a full display case simply because he didn't want to go grab it, telling me to come back tomorrow. On a follow-up visit, I reconnected with an old friend on the side of the porch. Two deli staff members came outside to chain-smoke right by the front door--well within 5 feet--and rudely ordered us to stop "congregating." When I mentioned that the secondhand smoke was bothering me, I was told I was "causing problems." This store is dingy, overpriced, and managed by an unhelpful staff with zero customer service skills. I won't be returning and will be advising locals to shop elsewhere.
