Town & Country Market

never buy steak from them. there meat quality is really bad.

I would much rather shop at a real grocery store then a super chain store. Town and Country is the original Portage grocery but I feel like they've gone down hill quite a bit. The store seems dirty, the selection of foods is mediocre (you won't find any unique or inspired ingredients here) and their deli is really low grade. The staff is quite nice though and I like the stores layout over all, I also enjoy their meat selection. Prices are average. The parking lot sucks though, it's way too small and arranged awkwardly. I'm surprised there's not more accidents there.

Beware - if you're not a fan of crowds, it is best to avoid this place between the hours of 5pm-7pm. T&C can get really annoying when it is crowded. Also, if you go, double check your receipt to make sure you are being charged correctly - every time we shop here, at least one item is not priced in the computer right, and we end up having to go to the customer service desk to have them correct our overpriced item(s).  I know it is not the cashier's mistake - but it is VERY inconvenient to have to go back to customer service over a dollar. And yes, I will get my dollar back...they add up after awhile.

On a positive note, the staff I have encountered have all been generally pleasant to deal with and friendly. They have great sales - actually, the only items I ever purchase are usually on sale - otherwise, they are normally a little pricier than I'd  prefer to pay. I question the freshness of their deli meat...I had an unpleasant experience with ham a few weeks ago; I don't want to go into too much detail but I will leave you with the word "slimy" to describe my deli lunch meat experience.
