I liked the food Co-Op a lot. Simple to shop, great variety for store size, nice staff. I'll go back again. Recommended.

Meh. Lots of selection, clean and well stocked and well ordered store. BUT..... COVID gave them an excuse to eliminate their hot and ready meals, which were VERY popular with the customers and the citizens of Ashland, but apparently not with the management. And so they simply dropped them permanently. On top of that, although the workers there are all quite lovely and sweet, there's a soupçon of snobbish classism that I sense whenever I pop in. It's nothing that anyone can really change, but it's unpleasant nevertheless. Finally, those prices are rather hefty, and the products aren't quite fabulous enough to justify them.

This is one of our favorite places to visit when we're in the area. Considering they are relatively small compared to most grocery stores, they have an amazing selection of products. One of my favorite features to this coop is they make an outstanding effort to supply locally-produced foods and products. In addition to a variety of fresh produce canned goods boxed Goods chips Frozen Foods Etc, they also have a small kitchen where they produce Fresh Soups that are for sale in addition to several other Deli items like dips and guacamole. They do a good job of labeling allergens on food products they produce in store and they seem to be cognizant of cross contamination issues. This Coop store has been clean every time we visited including the restrooms. Many of their items are priced competitively for what they are, however I will occasionally notice an item that is drastically more expensive than what I'm accustomed to paying, if that's an issue for you, it is worthwhile paying close attention to the prices. They do offer memberships in the coop however you are able to purchase Goods without a paid membership.

I have been a Chequamegon Food Coop member for almost twenty years now and this is my favorite place to shop. Some people say co ops are expensive but, when you buy bulk, I find it manageable. The keys to eat that produce and cut out the junk. It is amazing what you can afford when you eliminate the toxic, industrial waste that many consider part of their grocery budget. Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food. Sorry if this sounds self-righteous... I am still battling to fend off our society's unhealthy and environmentally destructive "food" industry. The coop is our best ally.

Co-ops can be a bit expensive from time to time, so it can be hard to buy all of my groceries here- but I'd love to if I could! They bring in such great things. My wife and I just moved up here from the Twin Cities and are both vegan- we both agree that we wouldn't be able to stay here if it weren't for the co-op and its great vegan options. They even started bringing in vegan baked goods which is giving me life! I love the people and the atmosphere as well.
