“I was in this location today, my usual store. (Grand Ave and 4th Street West DES) I was pleasantly surprised to see ribs in the rotisserie. They ended up being better than I thought they would be. Not quite fall off the bone but the quality and quantity and flavor made them well worth the price. Please make this a regular addition to the rotisserie line up.”

“Great shop! Love that you can see where everything comes from (mostly in Iowa). I appreciated the frozen and fresh options as well as local items that weren’t meat. We opted for some lamb and it didn’t disappoint! We picked up some beef sticks and ground sage sausage. Can’t wait to try them. Staff was very friendly and helpful! I just wish they were closer to our house!”
“The Good Butcher, the first thing you have to say is the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. We stopped in on their grand opening. We were greeted as soon as walked in. A gentleman came out and spoke to us about watch was in the case and cooler. We discussed where the meats were sourced from. They had cute shirts for sale-hung on the wall. They also had some sliced salami for us to try on the counter. We grabbed two steaks to grill. They were delicious. Definitely worth the drive downtown to get meat from the Good Butcher. We will be back.”
“Just got my meat bundle from the East side Fareway. Thx Nathan for being so nice and helpful... This is my favorite store. Brought one of my clients with me today to show them the meat bundles and they were so happy they got one themselves”
“I used to do a lot of my shopping here up until 2019, when I moved out of state. I’ve just moved back and I think it may have gotten a bit of a facelift since I was last in, because it looks a lot nicer than I remember! Maybe I’m just remembering it being smaller, somehow.Parking lot is still chaotic, as is navigating the store (it’s always busy and the aisles are small), and some product availability has shifted. There are noticeably fewer japanese staples (no mirin?) outside of the frozen aisle/rice. It’s still a hefty selection, compared to anywhere else in the state.Snacks and drinks are always at a markup, which makes sense. On the other hand, the produce section is varied, as fresh as possible, and CHEAP. Far cheaper than what you will find in any of the chained grocery stores in town. I used to go here for all of my mushrooms and root vegetables, and I’m so glad to see that this hasn’t changed. Their leafy greens have always looked good, and that hasn’t changed either. The prices of their dried goods is great, and the variety of soup bases and stocks is almost dizzying. They’re also the only place in town that I know of that sells frozen char siu bao, which is an immediate 5/5 on principle.I still haven’t tried the pho at the attached restaurant, but will one day! Thanks again C-Fresh, it’s nice to see you again!”
“I can't speak to the grocery store itself, but the haunted house in the basement is fantastic! Hasn't changed much over the years, but it is hard to improve on perfection. Narrow hallways and crawl spaces. Near complete darkness with helpful, dim lights here and there. Jump scares tastefully done!”

“Salmon was the best I've purchased and ate in Des Moines! So fresh and bursting with flavor! Highly recommend, not only their seafood, but quality meat available also! Service with a smile too! Will definitely be back.”
