Mike's Star Market — Local services in Eau Claire

I have been going to Mikes for the past couple months. Every time i have gone in there i go in with a smile and my wallet ready to pay. Only to be greeted with sour and judgemental looks by the butchers in the back and occasionally the people packaging the meat. Something i’m not too concerned about. However, these looks turned into charging me more (5.99/lb to 9.99/lb). for instance, the lady weighed my order at the front at 5.99/lb. After asking to get the steaks cut in half for packaging and for the butcher (Mike) to not cut any more, because the cuts were bigger than i was anticipating, she went back and Mike mumbled something to her and gave me a look. She then rang up the order for the same steak she just weighed at 5.99/lb to 9.99/lb. not realizing it because i’m so uncomfortable in there, i bought it and left. I got home and realized what happened thinking about my previous orders. I have decided i cannot pay them to treat people this way, i will be taking my...

I've taken deer here twice and both times were just bad experiences. Their website says $110, when we showed up they rudely told us it was actually $150. That's a big difference. I can't help but wonder why they would falsely advertise their prices. I also searched their website for any info I could about the condition they wanted the deer (we were given an already caped deer from a friend who took the head), and when I couldn't find anything, I called to make sure it was ok. They said yes. When we got there they were condescending and disrespectful. The man got angry and told us we were ametuers who didn't know what we were doing (the legs were broken, which is partly why we paid for help to hang/process this one). We have processed countless deer in our lives. People are paying you $150 so they don't have to deal with the hassle of processing their own deer, they deserve to be treated respectfully. I'm sad to say they lost...

I’ve been to Mike’s several times to buy meat or have them process venison that I bring in. I have never been greeted once! I have to be the one to say hi in a nice smile in hopes I would be treated decent there or at least in return get a smile or a “how can I help you.” Everyone looks so angry that I’m so afraid to ask questions and when I do, I’m shut down immediately by short answers and angry body language. I have always given them the benefit of the doubt and returned each time but after this last encounter of how poorly their customer service is, I’ve decided that I can’t pay them to treat customers this way. I will be taking my business elsewhere. Please be kind, a little smile or have a nice day...
