Nice folks. Limited selection which is often depleted due to being only option this side of town.
Best place to shop. Locally owned too!
I dont do a lot of grocery shopping here. There prices are higher than Kroger and Walmart. However, they make the best donuts! I will go there early just for their donuts.
This store goes that extra distance to make sure the place is clean and sanitary. Shelves are always stocked.
Friendly helpful, most everything you need.
They always have the items Im looking for specifically Smiths peach tea & fresh donuts. Staff is very friendly and helpful. I also enjoy their fresh produce section
Employees are helpful to courteous and friendly. Im always stopping in for things. I couldnt find Shears Puffed Popcorn a couple of times do management looked up when Shears delivers so I stop on Mondays or Tuesdays to get them.
We really like this little store. It has a great small town homey feel. Obviously the prices are not always as low as the local big box grocery stores but they are not bad either. They do have a off brand available so that helps if you are willing to use non brand items. The facility is clean, bright and spacious. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. If you enjoy a more relaxed, laid back, small town experience this is the place for you.
Nice to see smaller businesses still around. Bakers gives off the ole Mom&Pops vibe. Stalked shelfs, reasonable prices, little wait for deli and. Check out..
Its always clean, decent prices, friendly staff
Nice store. The prices are a bit high priced. Good place to grab a few things. Clean store. Cashiers are friendly.
Such nice people... Reminds me when we had small towns! Prices were really good! The meat cuts were awesome and priced well! Support the small stores like this or they will be gone!
Surprisingly pleased by the selection of this grocery.
Stopped on for yogurt and also bought a HUGE cinnamon roll! Prices were reasonable. The store is older but neat and clean...
Horribly high prices but the employees are possibly the friendliest people Ive seen in Mount Vernon. I feel sorry for the people who need to shop there.
I cant believe they have a security guard standing at the door checking for mask. Only went there because we ordered a birthday cake, it was great. Compliments to the baker on a job well done.
Cyndi in the bakery makes the most AMAZING cakes at a very reasonable price! And the cake was delicious!
Great small grocery. Decent beer selection too. I go here in a pinch.
Workers are always nice. The stores seems to be always clean. A little pricey though.
Love this store. Small and effective. Great prices and great people!
This is a nice, small grocery store. They have a good selection of items that you can choose from. A lot of times in these small grocery stores they only have one kind of item and you can choose from the store brand or name brand and thats it but Bakers has a very nice selection of things. And if you havent had one of the glazed croissants from the bakery then you are missing out on something amazing!
I was very disappointed with the quality of products I purchased the other day. The cupcakes were decent, but everything else was below par; the apple turnovers were undercooked& had barely any filling, the 3 1-liter Dr. Peppers were flat, & the box of danishes was stale. U would think that the prices they charge would insure quality products.
Love this smaller local store, so much less hassle than big chain stores. My family for three generations now have shopped here. Only problem is prices. Some are slightly higher than big stores, some considerably higher. Thats the reason for rating 3 stars rather than 5. I expect higher price but some are way too high, even for a convenience store.
Nice little store.Could have had a nice grocery store in Fredericktown but NOBODY wants to support one. All they want to do is talk about how nice it would be to have one but when given the opportunity not enough people will support having our own grocery store. 4 different stores have opened and closed in the 20 years Ive lived here because of lack of community support.
I stop here on a break while riding the bike path. Good sandwiches, fruit, drinks, and deli . Didnt see a marked restroom, though.
Bakers is your traditional small town grocer. The place is immaculately clean. The floors shine, shelves are in order and well stocked. The fresh food is displayed nicely. Its best attribute is the employees. These folks are friendly and courteous. The checkout and deli folks always have a smile. The product selection is decent and well priced.
So I’ve stopped by here many times in the past year and some of the staff are very disrespectful and rude. I believe her name is Kim? Not completely sure. But the woman with the short hair was really rude towards me. Uncalled for. There was this younger boy, he hasn’t been there for the past couple weeks so I have no idea what happened to him, but he was really nice to me, using manners. I asked for a manager up front and they called for him, he did not come so this woman came up. BUT after I talked to the woman, I went shopping and the manager was back in the bakery talking with a couple of the bakers. Obviously he didn’t hear the employees calling for him over the speaker because he was in the back chatting. Can’t remember his name but he has glasses, darker brown hair and facial hair. The bakery food, donuts, cookies, etc are one of the best!!!
Very friendly staff greet you as you enter and ask if you need help. Its a small store, so they cant have everything. Their bakery makes the best glazed donuts in town. Love the $1 section too.
I only go here for the donuts. Which deserve 5 stars alone. Most of the cashiers seem like they are always in a bad mood though. And they dont seem to like different races of people in this store. Prices are way too high too..
We love this smaller grocery! It is so pleasant to be in, clean, neat, and staff so friendly! Wish their prices could compete with Walmart, and of course, they cannot, or Id buy ALL my groceries there! My family loves it!
I really want to like and support this store because I love to support small business and honestly the donuts are amazing. But everytime I go there the employees are incredibly rude. I went in this morning for donuts and the older women was not kind to me at all. Everytime we use WIC there the employees are rude about that as well.
This is a great hometown grocery. It is NOT a huge corporate store. That is a nice change. It has the charm and personal touch that the big stores dont have. Everyone that works here is friendly and helpful.
Very clean and good variety. Of course, some prices little higher than big chain box stores, but its nice to support a local store with lots of local staff and products. And shop sales flyers--prices quite competitive.
Even though this is an IGA, it has a mom and pop feel to it. Its very clean and well stocked. Friendly staff!
The lines were long only 2 only office line and 1 other. No express lane. I had 2 items and had to wait a good 10 to 15 minutes. They should have 1 express open and the store manager was just sitting at desk watching and should have been helping. So if your in a hurry for a item or 2 pay the price and go to Wal-Mart....Your explanation does make since but what doesnt is WHY WASNT THE MANAGER HELPING INSTEAD OF WATCHING AND THE CASHIER DID CHECKOUT AND LOTTERY WINDOW...
Always shop here.very convenient and close to home.Deli is well stocked with fair prices.
Small town grocery, trying to stay in business against more corporate giants like Kroger and Wal-Mart.Bought out by IGA, Bakers hasnt changed much over the years.Prices are higher then most reflecting a struggling grocery of its size to turn profit.Selection isnt great, but has the essentials.Perks are its never busy, easy in and out, and hardly ever a wait.The gem is its bakery which has the best donuts in the city and the reason many of us keep returning.
It was great! Went there because stupid Wal-Mart did not have several items we needed. The new remodeled Wal-Mart is a joke. They should be ashamed. Many items missing. No Colby cheese, no distilled water, no pickles we like and no canned cherries. Got them quickly here and were on our way. Hope more people choose stores like this one in lieu of stupid Wal-Mart!
Very strict following Covid restrictions. No mask - No service. Good food choices. Prices a little higher than some other stores, but the service makes up for it.
Bakery ladies are very nice!
I bought a container of cantaloupe and when I brought it home I went to have some for breakfast the next day and found it was completely spoiled this is gross I’m never shopping again here🤮🤢
Vicki really does care about customers my wife and I just came in from Cleveland clinic wanting to get home she didnt know that as usual even though she probably wanted to get home too but she ran me thru fast lane. Not first time all employees treat customers great hope Baker s know what they got
Friendly hometown market with fresh food, we buy the majority of are groceries there.
Great store with good selection of groceries at lower cost than Kroger. Has a great meat, bakery and deli section.
The store is fine but why even have pop machines when they are always sold out or don’t work. They have been like this for years lol
The BEST donuts 🍩 in Knox County. And all the Staff are so pleasant. The most perfect small town market❤🥰
Cute little grocery store. The staff have been above and beyond helpful, and kind to me, especially when they find out I am from out of town. 10 stars to them. 👍
Decent neighborhood market. Has all the basic grocery items. Also has a meat produce dairy deli bakery and alchohol depts.Has the small town appeal. Not the bustle if a Krigers store.Parking is adequate but its difficult as t times to get out of parking lot due to heavy traffic.
Bakers is the most underrated grocery store in town. Honestly, doing a lot of item to item price comparison, they will almost always beat out Krogers and still have a wide selection to cover most anything you are looking for.
Bakers has a good selection of meats, produce, wines, beer, etc, and the prices are reasonable. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the check out moves fast. Whats not to like?!?
Overpriced. Products ring up higher than what tag on shelf says. Said something to cashier Stacie and she didnt even acknowledge it, continued like she did not hear. Will not shop here again.
Good little store. Friendly employees. Prices a little high for my liking in frozen foods and in some other sections but theres always a lot of Manager Specials.
Prices were kind of high compared to other stores. The store is conveniently located and well laid out which helps to offset the higher prices.
Friendly service each time I go . And yes there is a security guard to enforce face coverings . Which is a welcomed sight .
Just not impressed with the layout, never have been. The deli is less appealing now than it once was, I dont trust buying salads that are displayed all day in aluminium pans. Plus, I feel they are still too pricey. They are a sad substitute for Aldis. Ill be going back there when they reopen in September, even though it is further from home.
Great staff! Very friendly and courteous! Store needs a faceflift badly though. Smells musty, cracked floors, and holes in random places.
I enjoy shopping here. I dont feel overwhelmed like the bigger stores. People are very friendly. The bakery always has delicious pastries!
Good service & prices. Employees very friendly. It was a little hard to find what I wanted, probably because Im not In there often. Selection could be better.
It was fine pleasant people very friendly. However prices are going through the roof my god.
Absolutely best place to buy meat, highest quality cuts !!!
The best variety of chips and snacks in Mt Vernon. The baking aisle is comprehensive and well thought out.
The bakery is great, the cake we ordered turned out amazing and tasted great. Awesome donuts as well. Thank you!
I hadnt been in here since it was rebranded. Not a regular shopper, but I was looking for malted milk powder, which they did have (and Kroger didnt). It seems to have been cleaned up a bit, and theyre running an old-school merchandise promotion, which I havent seen in years. Stop in if you havent been there since it was Neffs.
Very nice employees Prices alitte higher than some places but its close and I dont like shopping at Walmart !
Competitive prices, definitely stop for fresh baked doughnuts. Store had made dramatic improvements, worth another try if you havent been here for a while.
I like our IGA. Some items are a little pricey but they have a few different generic brands for great prices. Its nice having a grocery store on the south side.
IGA prices are very high. I can go to Walmart or Krogers and get the same product for $2+ cheaper. Example.: Hawaiian fruit drinks.. Little over $3 and they are $1.98 anywhere else. It adds up at the end.
Very clean, good selection, friendly staff. I like the improvements made since this store became a IGA.
Just get rid of Deb.
I have only been here a couple times no issues just a very laid back environment
I have been going to this little grocery store since I was a little girl. Im so glad that we still have it as part of our community. Knox Rocks!
I just want to say thank you to the young ladies that helped my grandmother out on Saturday she was under the weather and they helped her home and made sure that she was ok .I love the fact that this establishment has such amazing people that care thanks again Derrick Depolo.
Very nice hometown market. The manager KT is a great friendly guy. All cashiers are friendly and helpful.
I get Doughnuts for my team here every Friday...my guys like them so much that they offer to get them when I am out of town.
This grocery store has the best bakery in town for donuts! They have a great selection and courteous employees.
The building used to be a dump as Neffs, but when Iga bought Neffs, they have really improved it. Remodeled the outside, brought in better management and reduced prices in certain things. Iga seems to be a really good place sofar.
Clean with fresh foods. Nice bakery and deli. Good beer selection too.
Employees are so friendly and go above and beyond. Cakes are amazing!! Better then Kroger or Wal-Mart.
The best doughnuts in Mount Vernon. Creme filled long johns are especially good. A locally owned grocery store.
Donuts are excellent, and in a pinch the selection isnt bad but overall the prices are too high to make it a regular stop.
Prices are outrageous, I do not shop here. And I dont recommend anyone shop there either.
Had good sale prices i found everything i was looking for and was happy with the prices and friendly staff. This was first visit since the store changed owners
The isles were clean and well kept. Seemed to be in an orderly fashion to complete shopping in a quick neat manner.
Prices are very expensive I know its not wal mart or krogers but dang. Mostly everything is at least a dollar more here.
Perfect 1 stop shop place. Much quicker than a large grocery store.
Great store. Friendly staff and nice selection.
Its nice that it is close and convenient to that side of town but their prices are a little high
Nice little place that has most everything you could want at a grocery store.
Friendly staff and great prices. The store is clean and organized.
Not as good as needs was they dont carry they same things so dont know if I can get what im looking for
People that work there are very helpful and the store is stocked up and clean with great deals every week.
Good place to grocery shop. Some prices are comparable to Wal-Mart and Kroger. New owners.
Great deals in meat and different items!!
Great store. They have some really good sales and lines go quick.
Great local store! The employees are always friendly and helpful 😊
Good meat and deli specials. Anything not on special is high priced to say the least.
Good people, nice place, and great selection for a local grocery store.
They are very nice because they give out cookies to kids under 12 and in stead of one they gave me two

2022-07-12Personally I think this place is a little on the expensive side. Tip, Check out their ad for deals on meat. They will have some great deals on meat occasionally, just have to look it for it. They usually display their big deals on their sign out front. Its good for running in and grabbing a few things, but I wouldnt do all my grocery shopping here..
Review №2
2022-03-09I love coming here for a few specifics, like hamburger and donuts, but very pricey...hands down best damn donuts Ive ever had in my life!! So it may cost more shopping here, but its right around the corner and it beats going all the way across town and having to deal with big grocery stores, with more people, higher volumes of traffic, further parking, && the fact that u leave with everything but what you came there for,(l.o.l.) like Walmart and Kroger...
Review №3
2022-07-02Its okay if you need something close to home. Amazing donuts and bakery staff. Employees are generally nice. Terrible produce options, store could be cleaner. Ice cream is freezer burnt like it has melted and been re-frozen. And I only say this because it has been like that the past several times weve bought it from there, expensive Ben and Jerrys only tastes freezer burnt at this store.

2022-04-12Prices are steep but I can find a few items that are rare in town here. Store is always clean and lovely staff.
Review №8
2022-06-14This place has the best deli meats and donuts in town. Really fair prices on the both as well.
Review №9
2021-09-05They dont have the cheapest prices, or the biggest selection. If you want that, you go to places like Wal-Mart. HOWEVER, I am personally okay with paying more and shopping here when I can. Not only is it supporting a local business against the big-box stores, but they also tend to have a unique selection of products that I tend not to see elsewhere. Additionally, they run sales often and its not like the prices are THAT much higher. They have their own value brands ad well, like the All Save brand which is surprisingly good considering the name of the brand leads me to think itd not be. Finally, the people have always been super nice and helpful to me, and they have probably the best donuts in town.

2022-03-02I like this little grocery store. The people who work here are friendly and helpful. They have a decent selection. Prices are a little high, yet it beats driving across town. The only complaint i have is the produce department does not get stocked well and often the produce is rotten or going bad.
