I'm a little surprised to find myself giving a Hy-Vee a four star rating in 2025 to be honest. Over…read morethe years my opinion on Hy-Vee in general has gone somewhat downhill for a variety of reasons, but my biggest quip is that it's just super expensive for no reason. That is actually still the case at this location in Manhattan, KS, but it's still an above average Hy-Vee, and I'll get to that soon. The first thing you'll notice at this Hy-Vee is that it's large, it appears to be fairly new, or at least very well maintained, but it looks like any old Hy-Vee from the outside. We stopped here as my mother in law lives in Manhattan and we were on the hunt for a veggie tray to take to our family Christmas. We walked in and despite living near a big modern Hy-Vee in Overland Park, this one really puts ours to shame in terms of feeling updated and fresh. We found the veggie trays and they were all beautifully put together and fresh. The thing that was terribly upsetting? They were also $25. With no other options we purchased it at that price. I was wondering if veggie trays are just this expensive now, and for the record, I went grocery shopping at Costco and Whole Foods in the KC metro the next week and found veggie trays at Costco to be around $10 and believe it or not veggie trays at WHOLE FOODS to be around $12 - so less than half their counterpart at a central Kansas Hy-Vee. Honestly stunning. Aside from the prices this is an excellent grocery store. If I lived here I'd likely return as they had way more prepared foods than ours does, and it seemed well stocked with fresh produce. They also still had self checkout which I love.

I miss the days when the produce was fresh and they actually provided customer service by bagging your groceries and offering to help take your items to your car.

Before shopping, I stopped at the customer service "money services" counter to exchange a $20 bill for two $10s. I was told that the cashier could not open the cash drawer for change only (even though I've exchanged cash at the west Dillons in the past). So I left and went to Hy-Vee where they gladly changed the $20 bill. And I was able to do all my grocery shopping at Hy-Vee. Great friendly customer service at Hy-Vee. Clearly Dillons is not big on customer service.

This young man always has a smile on his face and gives you his full attention when waiting on you. I have shopped with Dillon's store since Safeway closed. After Covid their turnover rate is high. I would say this is causing some of the bad reviews. Customers and employees don't have time to interact. I am a personable patron and like to speak with employees and other customers. One thing Covid did was to learn to be patient. I always check out with an employee. I am not a fan of the self check out. I have had bad service with both store employees and customers. We are all in this together and we should treat everyone how we would like to be treated. I believe most people like to be acknowledge and when shopping I like to call employees by their names. This works two ways. Customers need to be polite to other customers. This can be as simple as saying thank you, your welcome, moving over so someone can get past you. I hope management can notice the employees like Maskas and others who are a joy to have on staff. It would be nice to do something for these employees and maybe help with the turnover. Julie L.

What's up!? A THIRD Asian market in the Little Apple...within walking distance from campus!? We…read moredrove up to the center to eat at Thai Noodle, and I saw "EASTERN GROCERY" and an open sign and squealed for joy! Eric R.'s ear drums stayed intact though. We walked in and the new owner told us he opened Saturday and still was getting in products including more produce. There was a pretty reasonable amount of produce though - daikon, greens, lots of types of mushrooms, mammoth ginger root (see my pic), and other goods. There is a lot of space and most of the shelves seemed sparsely stocked, but there were tons of boxes in the back. I think it was cool of him to open before fully stocked, because this is a little more accessible than the other markets, though Yi's is technically walkable from campus. Aggieville is just much closer. There were drinks, snacks, pocky and other sweets, noodles, spices, sauces, rice, and even cookware like bamboo steamers. I bet this will be well received once it is fully functioning. I am thrilled that we have three markets in our small city with ingredients that I use on a regular basis, so this is a welcome addition to town!

I have ordered from all grocery stories for delivery since the pandemic started, and Aldi has been my best experience. Aldi goes through instacart, and it has been very easy to use on my computer and the app. Once my order is placed and time slot for delivery chosen, I can add to, edit, and update my order until the shopping begins. I am able to choose specific substitutes and list notes for the shopper. The delivery fee is only $3.99, whereas the other stores charge $9.99. Both times my stuff was delivered, the way everything was packaged and placed by my door was flawless! I never was much of a fan of Aldi produce but lately what I have received is great quality. I would recommend Aldi delivery for local groceries right now if people are not comfortable going to stores, though the other grocery stores are now offering free pick-up (when some previously charged for this option).
