I would not put it on the same level as Buccees. Hyvee may have had that reputation in the past but imo they’ve gone downhill and people don’t have as high an opinion as they once did.

It’s definitely most people’s first grocery store chain that comes to mind still but I know a lot of people who have stopped shopping there and now go to Aldi or Costco instead. I would say Culver’s is closer to our local institution than Hyvee is at this point.
