I highly regret not stopping here on my last visit to Iowa City. This Co-op is absolutely…read moreincredible and it features a lot of great healthy food items. It was missing a few things that I wish it had but for a small store this place really packs a punch. Plenty of great vegan and healthy options. Great perks if you're an owner of the store. Parking is obviously a big hassle here unfortunately. Staff was very friendly as well. I bought one of their electrolyte Waters that I've never seen before which is great for my drive back home. The store is very clean and I would love to come back here whenever I get a chance.

I also wandered into the Co-Op and ended up with a few snacks to tide me over before the College of Engineering family event. I found it a little small as far as Co-Ops go, but there were still lots of healthy choices. Half the fun was listening to a bunch of well educated and interesting store staff and customers talk. That's one of the cool things about University towns.

This is an amazing grocery and co-op and I can't say enough good things about it. First of all,…read moremost of their produce and meats are locally sourced from farmers and growers who follow sustainable best practices...and second of all, their food looks and tastes beyond amazing! The deli and bakery are the best I've encountered, with sophisticated and delicious baked goods (especially cakes!), salads, sandwiches, and prepared foods...all made from scratch and using mostly organic and local ingredients. They also provide catering and will do a beautiful and professional job, going above and beyond with the quality of their food selections and presentation. The store is a fun and cozy place to shop, and they usually have samples...the deli is the highlight of the store with so many yummy treats you won't be able to walk away without at least a few goodies. You can purchase a cup of fresh coffee and there is a soup and salad bar (not sure the hours for the latter, though). The store isn't super easy to find, but there is plenty of parking. (You don't have to be a member BTW to shop here.) I wish there were more groceries like this everywhere!

I love this Aldi, but man is it crowded. I made the mistake of coming in here on a Friday afternoon…read moreand the day before Christmas Eve. AGH!! Surprisingly, the inventory on 12/23 was very good. I picked up exactly what I needed. Plenty of friendly staff working, but there just isn't enough room to move around. We were 3-carts wide in the aisles. My fault for having to shop on 12/23, but still. We got in and out quickly. I enjoy the 'specialty' items that Aldi carries for short periods of time. For example, the Green Bean Casserole pizza I picked up. Or unique sauces and jellies. Many unique cheeses. They have so much more than that. They also have their infamous 'aisle of shame.' This is the aisle you go down if you want to blow your grocery budget, or if you have no budget at all. We're talking about the non-food items. Those throw pillows, boots, candles, underwear you didn't know you need. Don't leave Aldi without strolling down this one. I should also mention their extensive wine and beer selection. Not sure it's Trader Joe's level, but good nonetheless. Check them out next time you're in the area. I'm a frequent shopper, so maybe I'll bump into you. Don't forget that quarter for the shopping cart rental. You WILL need a cart.
