Stop & Shop

Today I went and purchased a box of Carolina breakfast sausage at $ 11.99 I mentioned to the cashier that I saw them at Shop Rite for $ 9.99. I mentioned this to the cashier and stated that Stop n Shop is trying to be competitive. And I responded that charging $ 2.00 more is not competitive but robbery. Her response was that Stop n Shop can not lower all their prices they have to stay in business. Ok lol! Subsequently I stop by ShopRite right after leaving Stop & Shop. Today Sunday, November 1, 2015 Carolina breakfast sausage regularly priced at $ 9.99 we’re on sale at $ 7.98 with their plus card. So stop & Shop let’s stay competitive.

I have been coming to this store for a while but today it was truly the worst!!!
The quality of the produce has just declined to the point of no return. The cilantro was muddy and filthy, the lettuce was literally rotten, the apples were damaged…
I spoke to the manager and he was very apologetic and professional, but unfortunately I will not be returning here ever again. The employees are always very helpful and wonderful.

Blood Pressure Machine covered with

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!

Horrible experience today. Lines 6 deep all over even at self checkout kiosks. Then my kiosk malfunctioned giving me an error message after each item I scanned telling me «attendant required» & causing it to take 20 minutes to check out 30 items (normally would have taken half that time as I’m a pretty experienced shopper!). The associate/​attendant who was supposed to be manning the 5 self check out lines — John — disappeared leaving every one of the 5 lines at a complete standstill for varying reasons. When he finally came back & I told him I wanted to see a manager since this was ridiculous he said to me «then go find a manager». Holy crap I was stunned & told him that he had horrible customer service skills to which he replied «don’t give ME an attitude!» I finally had to actually call the customer service desk from my cell phone (yes you’re reading this right!). The manager Lisa did finally come over & was very nice & apologetic but frankly it was too little too late. I will be calling corporate on Monday to complain about their associate John & will consider taking my business to Shop Rite.
AVOID THIS STORE UNTIL THEY STOP UNDERSTAFFING AND GET SOME REAL ASSOCIATES WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE TRAINING!

I shop here almost every weekend. Using the handheld scanner is helpful (it gives you its own savings «coupons» and you can verify that a product’s sale price is still valid — sometimes the tags are old) and kinda fun. They have a large selection of almost everything. However, when a product isn’t on sale, it’s a bit pricey — Walmart is cheaper when you need a few things that aren’t on sale at S&S. Starbucks is always tempting. I’ve been shopping here since the store opened, and only once did I venture into the restroom (I was very pregnant) and it was not very pleasant. They do have quite a few self-​checkout lanes, which go very fast if you use the handheld scanners (provided you aren’t stuck behind people who don’t know how to use them).

This review is for the produce. It doesn’t look fresh. I found mold in the strawberries I bought yesterday. I brought it to their attention and they gave me a refund.
As much I love their organic section, I’ll go to a farmer’s market to get my produce.

The worst place to shop. From the managers to the check out staff and self check out staff, so unfriendly. Never a smile or a thank you. I once asked a store manager to price a chicken for me and he said he didn’t know how and he would not get someone to do it for me. The self check out people, once I had a coupon that would not scan, the guy came over, pressed a few buttons and said nothing just walked away. Today I was in the self check out and there were no bags, two girls standing at the desk by self check out, looked at me and the bagrack and walked away! As stated before, the produce section is horrible, they hardly have anything and whatever you buy is rotten by the time you get home. The self check outs do not have a stylus to sign your name, it says use your finger. How incredibly lazy! Many complaints have been made and nothing is done. The only friendly worker here is the Spanish lady in the fish department. She’s awesome!

I can look past rude service because self check out exists (thank you)
Best organic selection in bayonne. Two health aisles now!
I always buy the natures promise brand snacks, organic canned beans, Mac and cheese, cheese etc. many options under the brand and also affordable.
While this store is not perfect, have you ever been in shop rite? Hell on earth.
I’d rather pay the little more for more selection, wider aisles and a better check out experience!

I don’t live in Bayonne my sister does. I live in Bergen county. The Stop & Shop right up the street from me, doesn’t have a great selection, on much of anything.
This stop and shop is PHENOMENAL!!!
— Vegetable selection, has such variety beyond your horizon!
— GREAT Cheese section /​olive section
— Two aisles worth of all different types of organic food, with a freezer, and fridge section. (Soy products, vegan, gluten free)
— Meat Section with a nice butcher, who is very helpful. Organic chicken brands.
— Seafood section everything is always fresh and great!
— They have this whole section just for milk.
— Bakery, everything is fresh. By their freshly baked breads, they have this garlic butter parsley spread, it’s amazing for garlic bread. It is my absolute favorite! I could have it every single day if I was allowed to! Haha.
All together basically one of my favorite grocery stores I’ve been to!
Happy Unilocaling, Unilocalers! (=*

Came in for a bottle of water so in could take a pill. As the checkout lines were all 10+ deep, I approached the empty «courtesy» desk and asked if I could pay for it there. I was met with a scowl and a curt «you’ll have to give me a moment.» Gretchen proceeded to take her sweet time while repeatedly scanning the checkout lanes as if to suggest I should have gone there. When she finally got around to collecting the $ 1.09, it was with great effort that she mustered up an insincere «have a good night.» Perhaps she had a long day but «service with a scowl» has become all too common these days. If you hate your job that much, find something else… or at least fake it.

This has been my supermarket of choice for the last 5 – 6 years. I’ve loved the scan while you shop option since day one. You can just scan your item and throw in your reusable shopping bag. At the end of your trip you can just go to the self checkout, scan a UPC barcode by the touch screen and your ready to just pay and get outa there. I actually now use my iPhone instead of the store scanner. It’s so convenient. The one thing I hate about food shopping is the checkout line. This makes it more tolerable.
They have one aisle dedicated to organic and gluten free items. For living in Bayonne and not needing to buy items in bulk as it’s just my wife and I, this place works.

This place just gets worse & worse. The deli section had flies everywhere. The refrigeration section has a foul odor. And the freezer section appears it hasnt been cleaned since they opened. Even the staff’s uniforms are dirty. My suggestion stick to canned and packaged items.

Ok so this is the closest most convenient grocery store to me and I will only go there when I absolutely have to! The service is some of the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life. The checkers are rude they never greet you and they’re always talking amongst each other as if the customers don’t exist! I don’t expect much but when you deal in customer service you should at least greet the people that make your job possible! I would not recommend going here for produce… go to Gerardi’s in Staten Island for fresh local and organic.

Always have what I need but it always seems like it takes me at least a half hour to get out of this place — the self serve lines are not as fast as you would think

I really do like Stop & Shop but most of the time I head on over to Shoprite because it’s a few blocks from my apartment. If I want to go to Shop & Stop, I have to drive. The great thing about competition is that it keeps each other in check. Shortly after Shoprite was rebuilt and expanded, S&S renovated, which was great. Plus, S&S houses the ONLY Starbucks in Bayonne, which is my go to coffee! Big points for that! I do think that Shoprite has a better produce and bakery section than S&S. One thing this S&S has over Shoprite is their healthy eating aisle (I think it’s aisle 2). It’s packed with great products! I love walking up and down that aisle, looking at all the different options.

Go here for steak, go right in front of the butcher, and you can purchase excellent filet mignon for $ 17.49 per pound. Why would you do it? To avoid substandard local steak.
Of couse if you have the money, you will go to a restaurant and order a filet mignon meal for double that price.
Go elsewhere for the produce. The deli is same as everywhere for high prices.

Fresh fruits/​vegetables. Over all very satisfied.
Deli has fresh and good brands of meats. Not like Shop Rite… ugggg! Went there once, will not go again.
Have been going there for years. The blond girl at the customer service (around 18) should get a reality check. Has been rude to me twice. And to other customers, not cool.
DELI PEOPLE please be more professional.

The only reason why I go to this Stop & Shop is because it’s located next to my site but it is overly priced. I actually like Stop & Shop but have found them to be quite expensive over the years. I’m not sure why but it makes me not want to shop there and deal with more crowded markets just for a better deal.

So much better than Shoprite. I love not having to mow down people as I breeze past the registers in the front, while looking down the isles in an effort to find what is next on my list. I also love that the people are helpful, friendly and fun. It’s also definitely not as busy as Shoprite, so I have more time and I can look with ease. Even though this is nearly out of town I prefer going to it instead of the other.

I’ll say it once, I’ll say it again. I love chatting with the cashiers at Stop & Shop. The people on the floor are great, too. I picked up a bunch of grapes which were on sale, and the guy pushing the cart of bananas said that the deal would expire tomorrow. Thus, I bought grapes and saved $ 3.15.
Starbucks on site gets you your caffeine fix. Great deals on seasonal items as always. Organic stuff is a little pricey, but what can you do, it’s Bayonne. Best damn avocados in the tri-​state area, though.
Selection and appearance are a little slim right now since they’re renovating, but all to help the customer out, RIGHT?
