Harps Food Stores — Local services in Harrison

This store within Harrison just opened in 2022. Some of the local Harps grocery stores built in the last 10 years were already some of my favorites out of grocery stores in various towns across the Ozarks. This is probably the largest location yet. Collectively Harps stores are modern, well lit, clean, well stocked, and the meats, vegetables, and fruits are generally of high quality. This is a local chain in the area and I would encourage you to make a stop here and support local businesses such as this. If you enjoy smaller lines and a quicker shopping experience than some larger chains that will remain unnamed, this is the place for you. Some prices are occasionally higher versus larger stores, but in most cases they remain competitive and the shopping experience is much less stressful. As a bonus the staff has been nothing but friendly in my experience. They seem genuinely happy to interact with their customers. I take that to likely mean they are well treated by their management and the store owners. Clearly that is an assumption on my part but in my experience management makes and breaks any job. Treat your people well and positive results...

The only two complaints I have with the Harrison Harps is. They need fresher produce consistently. And we've bought a whole ribeye roast one day the cost was $99.00. we had them cut it into steaks for us. The steaks had good flavor but we're tough like chewing shoe leather. When we explained to the meat market that the meat was tough. He said that we must have cut it wrong. I told him that they cut it into steaks for us at the time of purchase. And then asked if that meant that they don't know how to cut steaks. He mumbled something under his breath and walked away. We have never bought another piece of meat from Harps and never will until they make this matter right with us. Perhaps this post will prompt a response from Harps. We won't hold our breath or loose any sleep over...

Harps recently bought out my regular grocery and Pharmacy Store. I congratulate them for their success. However, the prices of their products went up. Some of my favorite items were no longer available. Even in the Pharmacy raised their prices on an over-the-counter medications that still required a prescription from my doctor. For example, my OTC Allegra24 was $16 and now it is $24. That's quite a mark up. I want to think that their prices will lower on necessity items and therefore affordable for me, the customer, the ability to afford those non necessity items by shopping. Taking the time to actually shop. See what items are in this store. This store is very clean. The staff are nice and friendly. No long lines. And, I...
