So many wonderful things about this store! I love shopping local and they have a surprisingly large inventory. Plenty of conventional items but also a great place to shop for those unique items that other stores may not carry. I follow a specific diet similar to the keto and Paleo diets and Food Fantasies pretty much always has what I am looking for! Also a great place to shop local for vitamins and supplements. The store itself is always clean and the products are always fresh. My favorite part is that I feel genuinely welcomed when I walk in. The staff is also very helpful and informative. Thanks Food Fantasies!
Vast variety of health items, lots of vegan treats available, even fresh baked items to quick pkgd small meals convenient for lunch! Also has a small produce section. Can find oils, vitamins, and beauty products & grocery items!Personable, helpful and friendly staff. Love this place... vegan carrot cake is my favorite
Great local health food store. Some items are still a bit pricey, but still things you cant find other places. They have added a cooler with some sandwiches/wraps near the front. Great selection of vitamins, minerals, herbs, etc. Excellent selection of natural beauty supplies. Great selection and okay prices on gluten free items.
This healthy gem has everything. Fresh made breads, wraps and sandwiches. Excellent organic produce selection. Wide variety of groceries, supplements, health and beauty items. Super friendly and helpful staff. A healthy and cozy oasis in a sea of big box chain stores. A must stop for any traveler.
This is a wonderful place to shop for teas, natural foods and beverages, freshly baked breads, viamins, toothpaste, pet food etc. The staff is super friendly and helpful! You can place orders for items that arent in store or if you order larger quantities. I would highly recommend that you stop in and explore the whole store! Its great!!!!!
Only grocer in town to get good quality local brats and other meat, IMO. Would be 4 stars, but stock varies and they run out of things, charge the wrong prices, and carry expired goods from time to time. Its pricey but they offer specials now and then via a text club. There is a big section of the store taken up by supplements and vitamins, hair and beauty, and now candy and wine. Bulk offers are numerous for baking and snaking, spices and teas too. They have very limited hours on the weekend! Be sure to check.
I have been going to FF for years! I highly recommend, ear candle-sinus option. Every year, I come down with a ear migraine headaches, which is pressure on my ear. All the wax that comes out of my ear is shocking! Chunk come out of each ear, we feel so much better, after doing ear candles. My sister whom is a nurse recommended to me years ago. Thanks sis! Great food, make sure u have about an hour to look around. I will spend money at FF.
Great little store, carries wide variety herbal, bit-min and health foods, incl dairy, meats, and fresh breads. Friendly, helpful staff; hapoy to take product orders or hold produ cts for pick-up, etc. Sure wish I had one in Rushville, IL so I didnt have to drive an hour to get there each time!
I needed to find CBD products and my medical doctor recommended them to me the salesperson in the store was very helpful and helping me find the right dosage CBD product then I was already takeing. Much cheaper than through the mail that I was getting and Im very satisfied with the service and the store and will be back in the future.
This is the Rural equivalent of Urban Whole Foods. However, this is truely real food. This is a Non-GMO, totally Organic food store. Their bulk bins bost a variety of dried fruits, nuts, beans, TVP, grains, flours, granolas, and confections. If you are into packaged foods, the ailes are repleat with pre-packaged organics. Honeys, butters, noodles, sauces, beans, ... They have their own bakery and publish which breads they bake on which days. Warning: the dried dates in the Produce section are like biting into Baklava! The parking is right at the front door but is a squeeze during major commute times.
I walked around the store and looked at several things, but no one offered to help me or acknowledge me even. They did another lady that came in...and, when I walked out, again they didnt acknowledge me. Felt very uncomfortable. I was looking for no or low carb items...if they had them, I didnt find any.

2022-07-30Having moved over to a healthy lifestyle over 20 years ago Food Fantasies has played a huge part in teaching me about new ideas, items, foods in general and even provide my favorite Organic Spices at a Much better price than I can find at either County Market or Hy-Vee. The staff is normally very knowledgeable and doesnt look at a larger person like me sideways because of coming into health food store. This is not GNC or anything like them except that they provide good food and great supplements or ointments Teas have great variety, loose leaf and bag. Even the varieties of coffees have grown. When possible, they will place special orders as need be. I would definitely recommend this Health Food store to others.

2022-05-07Yep...overwhelmed by all the products they have. Bought some organic fuji apples, organic Reese buttercups and some Calm pouches. We should shop there more often. Be sure to get free magazine with your purchase...Its informative.

2022-03-01This is a fantastic store with all sorts of ingredients you cant find and a good selection of healthy groceries and supplements. Are you groceries here only every so often or specific things I need I usually come here for the hot tea which I cannot recommend enough but also the selection of drinks youre not going to find anywhere else is pretty great too looks like theyve added alcohol I guess within the last year.

2020-02-18I loooove this place! Today I bought this vegan certified protein powder after having bought one at County Market that claimed to be vegan and it really wasnt. Amazing vegan food products and beauty supplies. Its a bit expensive but sometimes its worth it. Also, they constantly help the APL if you love the causes to help animals.I highly recommend it for people who are just beginning a vegan life since everything is well detailed and classified within the store.You will not regret! ❤🙌🏻

2019-02-20Great selection, lots of items I cant find anywhere else in town. Just recently discovered their selection of Thin Slim Foods Zero Carb breads and bagels. (No more lettuce wraps on burger night.)They have a great selection of essential oils, kombucha starter kits, and fresh baked goods. Service is always pleasant and welcoming.
