A person at our hotel told us too that they have the best meat department in town too. We headed to the floral department which was unmanned at the time but they had a accessible case and we were able to find several bunches of roses for under $17 each. The smaller single roses may have been under $5.00. We also picked up several things for our hotel stay here such as some food items and a cake for our renewal. The bakery department clerk was very friendly and was able to write on our cake for us. It is a smaller local store but it had all the things we would have needed if we shopped here regularly.

I didn't think it possible for a grocery chain to be more obscenely overpriced than SAFEWAY (a…read morebrand owned by Albertson's), but FAMILY FARE supermarkets located in the Black Hills region of South Dakota do in fact fit that bill. Safeway, which has been owned by the Albertson's corporation for several years now is one of several branded markets than include Albertson's, Ralph's, ACME (on the east coast in the Mid-Atlantic States), is a chain that many people will say "has a license to steal." In the case of the Rapid City, SD, area, there really are only two supermarket chains where folks can buy groceries (other than Walmart), and both are obscenely overpriced because other than Walmart, there is literally NO competition. FAMILY FARE, a smaller chain that doesn't benefit from the buying power of the larger Albertson's company has prices that left me wondering how their ownership could sleep at night knowing they were ripping off their customers so flagrantly. I found the staff at the store I visited uncaring, uninterested and the aisles crowded with un-shelved merchandise. When you asked the staff for assistance, they seemed unwilling to help and completely lacking in anything related to consumer service, let alone basic communications skills. Rapid City, Spearfish and the rest of the Black Hills region of So. Dakota needs additional competition for groceries. My suggestion? Shop at Walmart and join Sam's Club and hope and pray that COSTCO decides to build a store in Rapid City.

It's pretty typical as far as Safeways go, but do not order fresh fruits and vegetables from here…read more They always give you the most rotten, unusable ones. I have to request a refund on nearly every produce item I buy from here. I thought I was just unlucky but a friend overheard two employees talking about it while they were packing an order (one actually told another to grab the worst item.) I stopped ordering from them altogether after I was told this.

I only shop here when I have no other choice due to a history of bad interactions with very rude…read morecashiers. Combined with Safeway's unjustifiably high prices, I just can't see myself choosing this Safeway over the Family Fare across the street. The last time I shopped here some of my purchased items fell out through a hole in a defective shopping bag. The employees struggled to clean it up due to a lack of the dry cleaning agent they needed to clean up a spill. They acted very irritated with me while I waited to see if they would replace the items I lost due to the defective shopping bag, but only helped after I started complaining about it. Rude comments about my family members' "ethnic" sounding names by cashiers has been icing on the cake. Employees need to be retrained about dealing with the public, but it seems as though this Safeway has a massive problem retaining them. Even on very busy days only a few registers are open, and lines are long as a result.

I visited Lynn's Dakotamart in Black Hawk, SD during my most recent trip to South Dakota in May…read more2025. While not a large store, it has just about everything you might need in a pinch while not cluttering the store with the extras you don't or won't need. During my visit to this store, I found the staff to be friendly, outgoing and most importantly, helpful. Those characteristics proved to be a far cry from the lack of communication skills I found in the two vastly larger supermarket chains that operate in the Rapid City area of the Black Hills - namely SAFEWAY and FAMILY FARE. Another nice aspect of shopping in Lynne's DAKOTAMART is the fact that their relative store sizes mean they are almost never overcrowded and therefore, you won't wait on long cashier lines. This proves another reason why on my next visit and when I move to the Black Hills region in 2026, I plan to start shopping regularly at these stores.
