Thank you Zach. I have already been contacted by a manager named Beau. He asked for details via…read moreemail. I gave him a detailed account of our experience but never heard back from him. That's when I shared my experience with others. If there is an update to store policy that I am made aware of, I plan to go back to the Hy-Vee I used to love and update my review. On my last trip, I discovered this HyVee in Waverly will only price match one item per transaction. After choosing one item and leaving the others, had to check out at customer service. The assistant manager didn't know how to do it and came up with the wrong price. Left my entire cart and went to Fareway where they happily price matched HyVee. Fareway is now my go to grocery store in Waverly.

If you are looking for a restaurant that serves an early breakfast in Waverly, you should consider…read morethe cafeteria inside the grocery store. You go to the counter, look at the breakfast specials, and then place your order with the person behind the counter. They will hand you a plastic table number, and if you order a drink, you will proceed to the sidebar where the coffee cups or glasses are located. Caribou coffee is the main brand served at this Hyvee. I had the combo of eggs, pancakes, potatoes, and bacon. It comes freshly cooked and delivered to your table. This was my first time ordering breakfast this way at a Hyvee grocery store. The pancakes are actually very good. I found out why I was taken here. It is the only place serving a cooked breakfast before 9 a.m. in this town.

A lot of the more "cultured" folks around here (okay, okay, my family - all of whom went away for…read morequite awhile and then came back, and so have had more than just a taste of "big city living") swear by Fareway. I didn't get a chance to shop at Fareway, but I went to Hy-Vee a few times over my last week's stay in Bassett, and I have to admit I was impressed. The Hy-Vee in Charles City is a pleasant mixture of old timey things and new fangled options. Walk in and glance to your right on any weekend morning, and you'll see covered dished filled with traditional breakfast items and tables filled with local "blue hairs" (my mother's term, I swear!) and various sprogs and offspring, all socializing to beat the band. Two steps further, and behind the deli case you may see an Asian guy (I don't know his name, my family didn't either, they just knew he was Asian) who can whip you up a fresh, delectable stir-fry while you wait. You could also get prepared deli foods at this counter, and while I didn't, I suspect the fare might be good. Further on, there is an enormous meat case where we picked up some very good house-made brats. They're sold by the pound, wrapped in greased brown paper, and could be behind the fresh meat case at any Whole Paycheck. Fresh? OMG. Fresh. And while we didn't buy beef, I watched as the butcher unloaded a styrofoam box laden with giant, perfect, sweetly bloody steaks from the Amana Colonies, which I've never seen at any yupscale Grocerie and Expensive Food Emporium anywhere. We're talkin' grass-fed, baby. I was also surprised at the cheese selection. While there were wedges that looked slightly past their prime (the market for Asiago and Parmeggiano Reggiano is still under-developed here), nothing wasn't saleable, and.... whoo. Fresh Maytag Blue! And a random Welsh sharp cheddar that knocked my socks off. A quite big selection. I was impressed. The rest of the store also yielded surprises. I found not just lemon curd but lime curd, soy milk, tahini, and other things I hadn't expected to see in a small town Iowa grocery store. And.... there was SORGHUM! Sorghum syrup is as old-timey Iowa as it gets, and I was afraid that all the gourmet modern options would have crowded its earthy, deep-flavored goodness off the shelves. But no, there it was, right by the pancake syrups. Hooray! Final note: in Iowa, you can get wine and liquor in a special section of the grocery store. We found lots of good beers and plenty of quite decent wines, including a New Zealand Riesling that was superb - and affordable. Whoever manages this Hy-Vee deserves kudos for keeping up-to-date AND keeping what's best of traditional things. That can't be easy. Very highly recommended.

A very…read morenice variety of groceries to pick from, many of the brands though I was not familiar with since a considerable amount of what they have are items based on the region but there is still plenty of the old standards that you do know like Doritos corn chips and the like.

We had family stuck at home in the pandemic; Fareway loaded up my trunk for$100 so I could bring supplies to keep our kin from going hungry a couple weeks! I recommend this well-run Fareway.

They carried a good range from local cheese maker WW Homestead and also had a nice variety of Wisconsin cheeses along with some imports. The cider selection really came as a wonderful surprise, though. I used to cider being given a short shrift compared to beer. Instead, they had a great variety from local cideries, and I even bought a bottle from Belgium! My husband found a few new beers, too. If and when I come here again, I'd love to look through more of the store, even as I check on the cheese and cider anew. This is definitely my kind of place.

It took two staff members 20 minutes to make two sandwiches "made to order". We stood there and had no idea why it was taking forever. They did toast the bread. As pictured, I was glad they had GF bread but it made my sandwich much smaller. I got lettuce, red peppers, "avocado" the green paste you see on the lid, pepperjack and mayo. We bought a large bad of chips and a tea $2.29 and our total for two "no extras" sandwiches, the tea and one bag of chips was $24 and change. Still can't believe how puny the meal was. Only two veggies before you're charged .99 for extras. I expected it would be substantial and filling. Otherwise the store was clean, and has lot of options for foods and natural products.

Hello, Today, while…read moreat the Decorah Walmart, I witnessed an employee dumping trash into a larger bin without changing the liners (which were nasty) and taking items out of the trash to reuse (gross)! At one point, another staffer had to point out that a spray bottle this person pulled out of the trash was broken. Does cleanliness not matter? I quit using the self checks outs because they were regularly dirty, and staff pulled bags / hangers out of the trash to reuse and the frequent attitudes of staff. I will no longer patronize this store and will be talking to my husband about alternatives. Cleanliness needs to be a priority epically with the covid-19 and new fungus virus. P.S. management who won't help, short tempered stockers do not help. This Walmart is a sinking ship just like the defective products they sneak on their shelves to try and sell.

This one has an entertainment center that is larger than any other Walmart I have been in. Everything is up to date and they even have staff people who actually know what they are talking about.

The produce dept. which is of much interest to me is very large and well equipped as is the rest of the grocery area. If you can't find what you want then it doesn't exist. Downfall is the waiting line at the checkouts. They have 13 checkout stands which are not in operation.
