Wow, Mama Jean's has really stepped up their game!…read more Ok, I've never been in this location, was in-and-out at the one on Sunshine and 65, so the only memories I really have of Mama Jean's were weird, childhood ones of the location on Campbell. That being said, I was totally wowed when my Mom and I stopped in here to grab just a few vegetables. When I saw the cafe, I immediately asked her if she wanted to get a drink while we shop. I ordered a delicious unsweet iced tea (and I got a free refill on my way out!) and my Mom ordered the Honey Latte iced. The girl who took our order was sweet, happy to help, and got our drinks out quickly. I've been living in Buffalo, NY for the last 5 years, which is certainly more ethnically and politically diverse than Springfield, so I've become accustomed to finding certain brands and products at local grocery stores out East that stock specifically for the demographic. I had hoped but didn't place my happiness on being able to find those brands here, but sure enough, Mama Jean's had everything I was looking for and more! I'm so happy! We bought our local vegetables we wanted, I grabbed a cereal I was telling my mom about earlier that day, and even grabbed a joint supplement one of the staff helped me find to improve my half marathon training I'm doing right now. I was thrilled; I had no idea Mama Jean's was this great! I'll be shopping here for all my Springfield trips for sure!

I go to the store to shop , not for political messages.i happen to think Trump's policies are the best thing this country has experienced since the Regan administration but I would never try to promote my beliefs to a total stranger, much less , someone that was 1st buying my product, I may have to change my purchasing options , while I continue to pray for a Trader Joe's store !!

I didn't have high hopes but they were right next to my gym so I figured what the hell, and much to my surprise they had exactly what I was looking for! I don't think I would have otherwise stopped in here for anything, but doing so gave me a chance to look around and I was actually surprised at their produce and meat departments. They had a pretty decent selection here and the prices were great! The choices throughout the rest of the store were limited a bit. They have brand names, but not the quantity or selection you might be used to if you normally shop at Walmart or Hy-Vee. Still if you are on a budget and don't want to subsist merely on Ramen or Chef Boyardee you can get a full weeks groceries for a reasonable price.

I guess I forget to check in at Hy-Vee because we come in here often. Back in the old days like 8…read moremonths ago we used to go to Springfield to see a movie at the Alamo a few times a month (the best theater in many miles but thats another review) and then we would got to Hy-Vee for groceries. Hy-Vee is in a whole different class than our grocery stores, not a Whole Foods but most of the positive qualities and some of the negatives too. Yes there are a lot of people walking the Islas being pretentious and turning up their noses and people they consider beneath them or because they don't wear the right fashions or are buying the wrong kind of free range tuna. Thats the Whole Foods experience that we don't miss and we find amusing at Hy-Vee. But most people are just there to get groceries. Now the good stuff Service is always great, they have baggesr! They are not very good and they are not trained in how to bag properly but hey they got em! Hint, cans do not go on top of bananas, gallons of milk do not go on top of bread etc. The selection is great, they have a great section of the new age, gluten free, free range stuff and we like a lot of it. They have pharmacy items and brands you can't get in Joplin. They carry more flavors and versions of food items that I can find anywhere we have lived in the US but are unavailable in Joplin because of the Walmart monopoly. They excel at the meat counter, deli, bakery, and cheeses from around the world. Sadly the only areas we are consistently disappointed in is the produce. They have lots of choices and a large selection of the supposed natural stuff but the produce and fruits are over priced, often in bad shape and of low quality yet at a higher price than anyone else. We tend to buy our produce in Joplin, at Sam's or Walmart Express and the farmers market. But for anything else, Hy-Vee has more choices, better quality and lots of natural, health-focused and free range foods. Its worth the drive.

I used to enjoy shopping at Greene County Freight & Food Sales, but my opinion changed after a…read morerecent visit. As I was leaving, I asked to purchase a pack of cigarettes and was told, "We do not sell cigarettes." This confused me, since they have a smoke shop and sell other tobacco products. The response didn't seem accurate, and it left me feeling frustrated and disappointed. If there has been a policy change regarding cigarette sales, that's completely understandable--but a clear explanation would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, the interaction left a negative impression, and because of that experience, I've decided not to shop there again. Customer service and clear communication matter, and this experience just didn't meet that standard.

Most people who come here probably know what they're looking for. Most of the items (I'm assuming here) are mostly Russian or Eastern European. We got two sodas (a cream soda and a pear soda) and some sweet wafers (chocolate and milk flavored). Unfortunately they do have a $10 minimum purchase for any credit/debit card usage. Other than that I was excited to be there and it was a lot of fun looking at things I had never tried before.
