A practical store with free popcorn. Staff are helpful. Love the chicks & bunnies! Nice selection of plants at reasonable price.

I like a good farm & feed store. This place has everything except common sense. $80 work jeans, will they do the work for me? The farmers I knew growing up were about getting the work done, making money, and surviving. This is about brand name, high prices, and fancy. I tried to buy a bag of pop corn - two of the clerks were too busy standing around talking to each other. Ringing me up was an inconvenience. But Rural King did have American Flag Tshirts made in America - Nine Lines. I appreciated that. read more

Bought a zero turn husquarna mower. Mowed once in the two weeks I had it, quit working and have gotten a run around on warranty. Last mower I buy from them. read more

Rough and down to business. Not a fancy hardware store or animal supply store, but instead an all-purpose warehouse with clothes, kitchen stuff, tools, and lots of things for animals of all kinds. I particularly like that Rural King is a Stihl dealer: great chainsaws sold here. read more

If you're ever running low on seed for your fields or mud for your barn, Rural King will fix you up real good! If your tractor needs fixed or your horse needs washed, all the supplies you'll need can be found at RK. They also got lots of nice shirts and hats with imagery ranging from bear scenes to deer scenes to wolf scenes. There's also plenty of hilarious slogan hats like, "Get the buck outta my way, it's pheasant season!" The place is run by good Christian folks, so no need to worry about safety or anything like that. Free popcorn when you walk in the door too! All in all, RK is the place for all your real rural needs! read more

Rural King - Guns for boys AND girls! - Home & Garden Near Me - Champaign, Illinois

Rural King is a pretty awesome store for good ol' country folk (I don't really fall into that category, but I like to pretend every once in a while). The best part is definitely the free popcorn at the door. There's no better way to make me feel welcomed than free food. It's "America's Farm & Home Store"... one of the few places I know that you can get so much assorted stuff! The have lots of spices (and only $1 each), clothing (all your rugged essentials), gardening (vegetable garden anyone?), hunting gear, hardware, automotive supplies, pantry goods (lots of stuff for baking & frying), kitchenwares (lots of cast iron!), and plenty of food for your dogs, birds, or horses. Definitely check it out in the spring when they have all their little baby rabbits, ducks, and chickens for sale... so cute (and a little odd). Be careful though... when you see a large display of dirty potatoes, don't get this confused with Meijer... those are taters for planting! read more

See all

Store review: Being a city dweller I wasn't sure what to expect with this store that we had driven across many times as we left Champaign. I decided one day to hope in and see what they had to offer. I was very happy to read about the free hot popcorn they have when you walk in the store. The store itself is a cross between hardware store/k-mart/farming supply. It has a little bit of everything from food to kids toys to farming equipment. Prices were good and people were friendly. There is a few scattered clearance aisles, with okay prices. Not too cheap like Target. All and all a fun place to stop by for some popcorn and shopping. For the little ones they can check out the bunnies and chicken in the front of the store Pros: free popcorn, lots of different random items, large inventory of everything Cons: if you don't have a farm then a lot of the items sold are not useful Hidden deals: Free popcorn read more

Nice store. Could be cleaner and better carts but prices are great. Can find some great deals here.

Great store for a lot of things, but the best part is the gun counter. They have friendly staff, a good selection, and the best prices in town. It would be nice to see them expand their selection even more, and sell some of the more unusual ammunition sizes (like some of the east-bloc calibers... 7.62x54R, 9x18 Makarov, 7.62x25 Tokarev, etc..) read more

I challenge any store to beat the selection, value, customer service and down home American pride that Rural King can offer. Not possible. This place has it all. I can get flannels, boots, 9mm, shovels, weed wackers whatever you want and the best part is that it's cheaper than anywhere else on earth. This store hasn't forgot about the common man. I'm going here to start my 4th of July right now. Get me some free coffee and popcorn and some American flag shirts. Merica! read more

I saw some boots marked down from $149.99 to $89.93 and then down to $59.95. I went up to the register to purchase them and they would not honor the $59.95 that was advertised on the box. They said it rang up for $89.93 and that they couldn't do anything about it. I own farm animals and purchase several thousands of dollars in supplies a year from them and they just lost my business. If you advertise a price, you honor it. Very disappointed in the Manager. read more

These people never reorder stuff. How does rural king not have horse fencing. They said it will take months to come in. We are in farm country I'm guessing that's why they put a store here. How about stocking it properly read more

I was emailed directly by Rural King to do a review of a product they shipped me. The product came damaged. I indicated that in my review and gave a low rating. They didn't like my review and decided to "moderate" my comments from their website. I would be skeptical of any positive ratings they have on their website, since they delete the poor ratings. read more
