Block's Fresh Market

Love Blocks! This place is a staple in the Hampshire community. The owner and his family and employees are absolutely wonderful and always are so friendly! I also love how they give back to the community. Shop local!

This little market has A Lot to offer! It has a great butcher to a good selection of spirits and lots in between! You can find just about anything here!

It's been a while since I last shopped here. I was pleased with my visit. Always a great meat department. Glad to have a grocery in town.

Store has made great changes since new owner took over. Grocery selection is great, allot of name brand products. Beer selection is great, nice variety including micro brews. Still has a real butcher shop in the back. Well kept neighborhood store! Makes you want to do as much of your shopping local as possible.

Blocks has been around for as long as I remember(38 years!). It was never a place I shopped unless I had to!
When I heard there was a new owner, my husband and I had to check it out! It was already so much nicer! The produce was fresh, all the shelves were stocked and faced, it was clean! But now...it's a whole new store! The owner is super nice! He's even given me items from the meat department after it was closed for the day! It's clean and bright! Has a nice selection of products.
DEFINITELY check it out!

I’m straight up amazed at the quality of the products AND staff. I know Jewel/Walmart/ALDI etc are in the area, but I’ve been doing 90% of my shopping at blocks. (The produce section is good, but could be better).

Butcher is superb. Quality and price are both amazing. The cuts are exactly what you are ordering, and precisely cut.

Liquor is fantastic. Their selection has some hard to find whiskey and bourbon. Wine/Beer is plentiful.

Snacks/frozen foods/daily cooking ingredients have a great amount of options.

Edit: I would like to make it known that the Owners have been doing an EXCELLENT job getting the produce section up to quality. Such a great market.

Great little neighborhood market - plenty of liquor, wide variety food selection and everything is decently priced. Needed something while cooking at my daughters on 🦃 and 🌲, Block’s was open regular hours! Being my daughter just bought a house in Hampshire she didn’t even know it existed. She does now and frequents!

I moved to Hampshire a year ago and I LOVE Blocks. They have a fantastic meat department and my family enjoys their steaks, Italian Sausage, Brats and more. They have a butcher on site who takes care of you and we love the meat quality and fresh offerings. It is wonderful to have a local, family owned store, with affordable prices and good service.

Hampshire IL..

Great place, affordable, owner is always there. If you need something they don't have, they'll order it for you. Don't understand these people complaining about wearing a face covering, my pops is 87 years old, you can't cover your face for a short period of time, shows the content of your character. Me, me, me! Did notice the workers wear a face covering, but the owners don't.

it is so much better under this new ownership . its organized better and has new products. the only thing i dislike is the fact that the guys in the deli are no longer there from before the new management. i dont know if they fired them or if they left, but they were super friendly and the best ones to have.

The meat is excellent. It is very rare these days to see a butcher shop meat section in a grocery store, with the meat displayed behind glass cases for you to choose from. The butchers weigh and wrap the meat for you. The baby back ribs are the best. Shopping here is a great small town experience.

I felt very welcomed to the "new" Block's. New ownership and totally remodeled floor to ceiling, front to back with modern coolers, shelving, fresh meat department and checkout. Wider range and variety of foods and newly added alchohol products. Some of the old faces are still there assisting customers. So I encourage Hampshire and area folks to come in and see the new grocery. Buy localn support local businesses.

Local Hampshire grocery store perfect for your quick pickup needs. Excellent meat market in back has good selection for the size of store.

Nice lilac store. Have everything you need plus some local meat for sale

New management is FANTASTIC!!! Very friendly and they've done so many renovations - much better selection of everything! Thank you for making shopping in our small town a viable option!

Of course you can find some items at other big name stores for a little cheaper, but the quality of the items and the quality if the service is great. It has a very small town feel. I wish there were more places like this.

Ever since the new owners have taken over, Block's Fresh Market is actually fresh. They are polite and friendly making shopping a great experience.

Improvements being done to the store are great so far. It was nice to find what we needed and see would could get more of the stuff we regularly had to drive out of town to find elsewhere.

GREAT local grocery and butcher. Fresh produce, dairy, freezer case. But go for the butcher if nothing else! Excellent meats deli and cheeses.
