From sliced meats, many cheeses, to freshly made pasta salads and fruit salads, my cart started filling up. I had a couple subs made at the counter since my hubs prefers a different cheese on his. The woman behind the counter could not have been nicer to fulfil my request. I would not have asked if there had been others in line so hubs was lucky this trip. They also had ready to eat items, stuffed cabbage (as my family calls pigs in the blanket), ribs, mac and cheese. Oh, I almost forgot, egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad. For some reason going in Chief's feels like stopping by to see a family friend or something. Since this covid uncertainty it is always assuring to smell the fresh popped popcorn when entering, then the smell of fruits, baked chicken, bakery items to name but a few. I so believe they have yummy smell scents piped throughout the store. Their meats are above average and I am picky when it comes to meat. From presentation to prices, Chief's is the place to go. They are offering mobile shopping now, however I have not used it since we enjoy going in and shopping. All of their employees are helpful, safely wearing masks and I always see them sanitizing so it is a very safe, clean and proactive store.

Like their fruit and meat way better than Walmart. Miss seeing Doug at the checkout. The older clerks are way more understanding of seniors in the community. They don't seem to train their check out young people very well. Last time I was there they put everything I bought in one bag. I know I should have said something but just attempted to get it to my car without the bag breaking.

Oh yeah!!

Oh yeah!

The store looked as though it recently had a refresh. The shelves were stocked well. The deli and bakery were actually too inviting since I overspent on too many goodies. The produce reminded me of a Saturday morning trip to Maumee Anderson's (the locals will know what I mean when I say that). Very high praise to the produce department. Kudos. Then on to the pharmacy area with thankfully a place for my hubs to sit and rest for a minute while I continued stocking up on medical and first aid needs. And yes, an employee even asked if I needed help reaching for something. All in all, a tedious store trip turned to a pleasant outing. Thanks Walmart!

I happen to go here for a special event. It was a Holiday Wine and Food tasting event. The staff was beyond friendly and the items that were included with the tasting were high quality but all were pretty much under 20 bucks. I was surprised to see so many quality wines at that price point. As we were scrolling around the grocery store all the staffs speak to you and have smiles on their face. I will definitely come back and do some shopping because I did check out their beer while I was here and it's about time for some Christmas Ale. I would definitely check this locally owned place out.
