Since I was not going to use them tell this fall I asked if they would be willing to vacuumed seal them, which they have done in the past for an extra charge. Which I'm fine with. I asked the young man if this was possible. He started to say yes then. The older guy behind the counter, I'm assuming the manager or owner said no we won't do that. Case closed no explanation. Told them to forget it and I walked out. Guess I will have to see if the Apple Valley store treats their customers any better.

This is my favorite corner store, and I might be biased as it's in my neighborhood, but it's filled…read morewith great staff and tasty products. We use Everett's primarily as a meat counter, where they have great cuts and you can ask the staff any questions. They are there to help you find what you need, and they are extremely knowledgable. We usually call ahead if we are looking for a more rare cut or request. We also love the food they make and sell. Not only do they have a hot counter for fresh bbq and mac&cheese, but they make frozen goods you can heat up at home. I always get the breakfast sausage dogs or tamales, and their meat loaf or meatballs are wonderful. And if we ever forget an ingredient for a recipe, we can pop on over easily! Everett's is a great local corner shop and a staple in our household.

Store is way down on Concord in South St. Paul, but worth the trek. Some of the best meat sticks around and a great price. Ended up buying two big packs of garlic meat sticks, some old fashioned hot dogs and polish sausage. Once you have meat from a market all the others are just blah. Great selection of fresh meat, frozen and they sell Heggies pizza too. Will definitely be back for more of the garlic meat sticks.

The place feels spacious and seems to have a good selection of meat. There's also a good selection of prepared foods and animal parts for the pets, well, namely dogs. The only thing I don't love about the place was the customer service. No greeting from the guy behind the counter--not too pressed about that. But he spent the longest time talking to a "customer" who didn't seem to be buying anything or talking about buying anything. It was all unrelated talk. It took so long until finally someone else from the back came out and helped. Not sure yet if I'd venture back.

Poor double smoke ham. Bought a whole ham for Easter.

The counter help was not trained, could not operate the saw to cut in half and it was wrapped like a child would wrap. I think the meat market, is becoming no more than an ordinary store. Still looks like a wonderful meat market, need to back it up with service and meat quality.

If you're grilling out, this place guarantees it'll make the experience well worth it, *especially* if you're entertaining guests. From brats to steaks, they'll help you figure out what you want to bring home. Plus, if marinades and whatnot intimidate you, there's a sweet selection of pre-rubbed chops/breasts/roasts/etc. It costs a bit more than buying the economy bag of brick-hard frozen chicken at Cub, but let's put it this way: if you want to keep small business in business, and you want amazing/real/THICK meat, you gotta put up the cash for it and be happy about it.

Great deals on wine and spirits. The store has a lot more inside than it looks from the outside. They make a great pasta sauce and meatballs that can be purchased fresh or frozen!
