Great Costco! So many samples. I came to grab crab for dinner and I was full by the time I left. I do like the seafood area. I like that the option of preparing food for less than an army is there. The crab claws are huge and delicious. Lines move. Employees are all friendly and helpful. If only the Staten Island Costco could take some pages from this locations book.

Costco offers a one stop shop for all your shopping needs from $ 4.99 rotisserie chicken, $ 9.99 fruit bowls, $ 12.99 for a tender creamy Dulce de leche cake(my favorite), electronics, furniture, bedding, clothes, etc. I find it amazing that if you have a house or apartment and have absolutely nothing in it, working with a complete blank canvass. You can literally buy everything needed to set up your home from this place. Here’s the downside to all of this, you have to bring your own truck because they don’t deliver, plus no shopping bags so bring your own. Chances of going crazy, just buying everything that you think you need are very high. Sometimes, I have to talk myself out of buying a lot of things. Once I bought 3 lbs of Kirkland shredded Mexican cheese, 7 dozen eggs, large bag of frozen spinach ravioli, largest bag of Doritos(under $ 5.00 they were practically giving it away) and a large box of frozen chicken and cheese taquitos seemed like a pretty good idea when I was shopping at Costco but when I got home. I would look at everything I purchased and ask myself why??? I have to remind myself that I only have one refrigerator with a limited amount of freezer space plus I always feel compelled to eat everything in a timely manner. Costco offers some great prices and they do have some sales but you have to really look for them. I also enjoy coming here during the holidays because they offer nice gift baskets, different types of cookies, candy, etc. If I could buy all my gifts from here I would. One of the best perks of shopping here is that they offer free food samples around the store to promote their food or product items of the day. Even after shopping they have a place for you to have lunch, dinner, or snack. Not the healthiest offerings but who would not like a hot dog and soda(free refills) for $ 1.50. They also offer pizza, pulled pork sandwiches, chicken bake, churros, ice cream etc. To enjoy this experience you either have to be a member of Costco or know someone who is a member to take you with them.

I love Costco. I have been coming to this location for around 20 years, and it’s just a relaxing and fun experience every time. The prices are unbeatable, as is Costco in general, but even the large, oversized produce is cheaper than it’s smaller grocery store counterpart. The employees are also some of the friendliest around — most of the folks have been working there since I was a kid, but even new hires seem to genuinely enjoy being there and helping customers. That’s a rare thing these days, and it’s nice to be a part of. The bakery is also incredible — it’s even cool to see the folks in the back going to work, churning out 100s of delicious cakes, muffin, bagels, or whatever else every day. I live alone, and still go to Costco to buy most of my groceries in bulk. I wish all business areas were as efficient and friendly.

This location is on the smaller side compared to your typical Costco stores. No gas station here and no liquor store inside.

This is only for the Tire center.(I couldn’t find it separately.) Worst service ever. Very very slow. No point of making an appointment. I make an appointment at 6pm and my car is not even taken in to the work area until 6.50pm !! One day they say it will take one hour and the next day they say one and half hour and add«No sir we never say 1hr»!! One day they reschedule the appointment from 5 to 5.30 and the next day«No sir we never reschedule on the same day» !!

Almost always a pleasant shopping experience. Lots of great products and food samples. Great value on the rotisserie chicken, veggies, and home items(comforters and rugs). Staff at checkout lines are very friendly-staff at customer service could use some training. Best time to shop appears to be around dinner time on weekdays. Recent shopping experience noticed prices were different on a Sunday and following day Monday — 3 dozen eggs were $ 9.49 and garlic was $ 2.99/pound on that Sunday(did not buy both) and next day on Monday, they were respectively $ 3.99 and $ 2.49/pound(bought the eggs). Won’t be shopping on Sundays anymore!

Great place to buy large quantities or special items such as cameras or TVs. Tonight the night before Halloween the candy aisle was hopping. I like shopping here to stock up on large quantities so it last long as shopping is not my favorite thing. The place is kept lean and staff is always helpful. Meat is always great quality, excellent burgers and fillet mignon. Regarding vegetables and fruit you have to watch expiration dates and look at what you are buying. COSTCO started carrying UDI’s bread in the bakery section and they are carrying many more gluten free items. If you catch it right they offer lots of samples to taste. So if you don’t like shopping like I do stock up here. Membership required.

I have been a member of Costco for over 10+ years starting in Matthews NC. This Costco dissapoints me. Produce is often moldy. Rotisserie chickens are dry and often not time stamped. Understaffed and over worked employees seem grumpy with some exceptions. Not a fan.

I am a huge fan of the Hazlet Costco. I’ve been a member since the original opening as Price Club. Many of the staff are 20 year veterans and everyone I encounter is courteous professional and highly knowledgeable about product and location. The best meat department of any store in the area hands down. The short side is you have to buy giant packages. Not the end of the world especially when you have a bunch of people to feed. Bakery is top shelf and they have the best birthday sheet cake around. The tire department has a huge inventory and fabulous prices plus they have reasonable wait times. Electronics general merchandise and dry groceries are all fair prices and well stocked. Even the parking lot is too shelf! Shopping carts are also alway like new. You gotta love this Costco!

Overall a very good Costco. No liquor department here. Meats, vegetables, all are very good here and if you can swing it on a weeknight before 830pm it’s very quiet and easy to shop. Mark at the Wireless Desk was very helpful and helped me get a great deal on my family plan as well.

Since I was small, I went to costco, first with my parents and for over a decade for myself. This costco is the most pleasant experience of all of them in a 3 county radius. My mother even tries to save her trips for when she comes to visit. First off: even when it’s «busy» it is not a zoo. I think I’ve only ever had maybe 3 people ahead of me online. The cashiers are amazingly fast and you’re really out of there in no time. Product wise: it’s smaller than some others, and doesn’t have gas. It fills your needs though. I got basically an entire BBQ for almost 20 people for less than 150 dollars. And I have a load of food left. Seafood is amazing there too. The size of the salmon is crazy. A million kinds of cheese and dips. The hours are annoying, but that’s a costco thing, and isn’t the fault of this location. I took off a star because I’ve used the bathrooms here and they’re not good. Also the bakery is slacking in terms of quantity on the weekends. By 12pm you shouldn’t be out of a lot of stuff.

Great location. Super busy on weekends, so I tend to come on weekdays. Our go-to for cakes and deli platters. Last visit I had to wait for my cake, which was scheduled to be ready at 11am(I came to pick up at 3pm). Other than this one isolated incident, I would have given them 5 stars.

All hail the cult of Costco. A membership is the key to having every consumer good on sale all the time. They have a bit of everything and the selection has already been vetted for quality by their consumer goods testing laboratories. The only tricky part is showing some restraint so that your basement doesn’t end up looking like a bomb shelter.

The Costco employees are polite and go the extra mile for customers. I am a big fan, I have been shopping at Costco for many years, the Hazlet store is clean and the lines move very fast. I did half of my Christmas shopping at Costco, including books and lots of good chocolate. I will keep shopping at Hazlet Costco!

I love Costco in general. Who doesn’t? This Costco is your standard Costco. On weekends they have the samplings at each aisle, which is always a great way to try new things. This Costco is clean, friendly, and always well stocked. I usually get my novels here since they always have the recent bestsellers and discounted costs.

This could easily be my favorite Costco. While it could use a liquor store(Gov. Christie please amend the NJ law that dates back to prohibition) and a gas station it is still a awesome place to shop. You get amazing deals, and the staff is terrific also! The Executive membership(which I have)…okay it’s $ 110 annually but I’ve gotten back no less then $ 125 each year since I’ve been a Exec!!! Really!!! They pay me to shop there!!! I get Lucky and Buffalo jeans for $ 20. I’ve gotten Hilfiger polo’s for $ 15. Even the Kirkland branded stuff(Costco’s name brand) is top notch quality stuff. The Kirkland Signature dress shirts are a RIDICULOUSVALUE… maybe not Brooks Brothers but defiantly Jos A. Bank quality… and you don’t have to wait for a buy one get two + a tie and a pair of trousers sale to afford it. I can’t believe the only thing I’ve covered here is the clothing??? Not the $ 5 Rotisserie Chicken that makes Stop N Shop or Shop Rites look like a fatty droopy Cornish Hen… these chickens are tasty and huge! I eat a quarter of it for diner then make quesadillas and chicken salad for the next few lunches. Then there is the food court where else can you get a Hot Dog and a Soda for $ 1.50!!! Really? I was at a Hot Dog cart a week ago and the guy wanted $ 2.00 a dog(and they weren’t nearly as big or quality as this) and a soda was $ 1.50??? How do you do it Costco??? I’ve been to Sam’s and I’ve been to BJ’s but there is only one Costco… and there is a clear reason for that. High end quality for rock bottom pricing. Member for life??? Yeah, probably safe to say… it’s like I stop in here every day!!!

This is my favorite place to shop. I have been shopping here for years, and I’ve found the best deals here. Even though they have changed the return policy, you will get the best bang for the buck in almost every area. I’m still trying to develop a strategy to not spend at least $ 100 every time I go here, but one day that will happen. This is the one stop shop for all your home and life needs!
