Stop & Shop

Came here once with my mom. We brought some groceries and some muffins as an afternoon snack. My mom come here often whenever she goes to Marshalls.

Love the weekly sales but boys and girls don’t come on a Sunday unless you like waiting on a long line. I’m not sure why but the check out lanes on a Sunday seem to full of people that fill up to their carts like there’s a hurricane coming. The automated kiosk is where the shorter lines are and the gentleman handling those robot check out kiosk was on point, good game guy!
This market is organized, has pretty much everything a decently stocked supermarket would have. It’s also neat and bright.
Those push carts are old but work. The other day there were none to be fount, only baskets.
Parking on the roof seems very ample and I can always find a spot to park even on busy days. But the elevator down takes a extra minute.
Customer Service seems to be always good but the security guard is useless.
10 for $ 10 — Must Buy 10!
Great!

Great store in and of itself! The not wanting to hire an appropriate amount of cashiers… unexceptionable!

I stopped by Stop and Shop since they’re one of the few places that still have coin counting machines. TD Bank recently removed their machines after a scandal in which many people who used the machines were allegedly ripped off. I use coin counting machines since they give me an incentive to save money rather than to piss it away on something stupid. Of course, Coin Star has exorbitant «fees». Even so, I still like the machines.
Stop and Shop is located at a large shopping complex. It’s about a 10 minute walk from the 46 Street station on the M and R lines. Be careful when crossing Northern Blvd since some of the drivers in Queens are maniacs. In fact, when I was there, a fight nearly broke out in the parking lot since a driver who was entering the parking lot nearly hit a guy who was walking down the street. This isn’t the best area, but I’ve been to worse areas.

Store was clean. Easily able to locate the items I came there for. The produce secrion was very big. They had many varieties of what appeared to be fresh vegetables. I even found a deal. I didn’t have a stop &shop card but the cashier was nice enough to use the house card to allow me to receive the discounts.
Went there on my break around 2:30pm, they had 2 cashiers and 4 self checkout lanes. I prefer to keep the cashiers employeed and enlist their services rather than go to a machine. The cashier lines weren’t really long, but my cashier was pretty slow. The other cashier seemed to move her line along fairly well however. Next time I will choose wiser and see which cashier is fastest.
Need more cashiers but they have great deals

Victoria needs to attend a good Customer Service. Bad attitude and whatever her problem is she shouldn’t be at work. Disappointing to come to the store because the sales are good and the store is clean.

Went here and wasn’t that impressed. The produce didn’t look that great to me even though they have a wide selection. Also you have to have their store card to get the discounts. Not like Key where you get regardless. Won’t be making it back here anytime soon.

This location has definitely gone down hill, and is not a good example of Stop & Shop in generally in my opinion. The Produce Dept. just looks sad, so the fact that S&S sent out coupons to come in a check out their ‘new’ produce dept. is just funny. Also, some of the shelves are poorly stocked, and many of the staff members are less than helpful. However, many of the other grocery store options available in NYC are even worse unfortunately… so I guess we have to take what we can get.

A pretty good grocery store. The prices are pretty good. The employees are always helpful. They even have a large organic products aisle. I have only one real problem with this store and it’s a big one. Shopping carts. They have hardly any. Each time I venture here I have to spend my time scrounging around for one, either on the parking lot on the roof, or trying to get one from one of the exiting customers at the front of the store. Supposedly people keep stealing them, but they need to find a better way of securing them. Customers shouldn’t have to knock themselves out to find a cart, they should be ample carts available. I along with many other customers end up leaving out of frustration because we can’t find a single shopping cart. You’re losing a lot of customers Stop & Shop! You better remedy that ASAP or you’ll end up closing down.

Came here once when I was getting my car fixed nearby. I don’t normally go to this one.
Not sure if it was because I was there early during a weekday or it was an off day, but the store was empty! Like, almost shockingly so. There were only other customers in the meat section and I saw one guy come in with his two kids near the produce brieflty, and when we were paying for the groceries. It was weird, because the location in Maspeth is almost always busy, from the early afternoon, to mid afternoon, through the evening.
But hey, browsing here and shopping felt like a breeze. Meandering slowly down the aisles with our cart, without a care, without feeling rushed, without knocking into someone and apologizing or exchanging words, without sighing in agitation when a super old person is moving a centimeter every five minutes, was a welcome experience!
Very big store. I didn’t do heavy duty shopping so I can’t speak for their products.
Also, a bottle return area, which is nice to get some extra change for your recycling.

It’s just a clean grocery store
Has all your basic needs but there is some
Breathing room and space here which is nice and it opens early at 7am

Good size store, good selection, I love that I can check myself out instead of going on line, they have a parking lot if you drive so Thatz a plus. Don’t go 2 the deli often but when I did guy was really nice. Got items a couple times that expired a day or 2 later guess my fault for not paying attention. Some of the workers are nice and helpful some not so much, some have the gift of gab and rather talk 2 a co worker then do their job but Thatz only happened maybe 3,4 times. If it was closer it would b my go 2 store, they also have redbox if you wanna rent a movie maybe you can do so after returning cans.

A for real grocery store! Tucked in amongst other very suburban things such as marshalls, chucky cheese and a Chinese buffet, this stop and shop is always clean, big and bright. Cheaper than any other grocery store, I actually will go out of my way to get my staples here like almond milk, liquid eggs and a rotisserie chicken. Decent selection of organic and natural foods and now they have self check out, too.

I have been going here much more since having a baby. It is hard for me to go to local supermarkets while juggling a baby but this supermarket I can drive to! I drive there, park in the never overcrowded lot, take the A elevator down right into Stop n Shop.
Their produce section confuses me because I can find some items only in bulk (avocados?). But no contest it’s way cheaper to grocery shop here than it is to go to a local supermarket.
This feels like a suburban supermarket and I really appreciate not feeling rushed or like I am fighting through crowds or like using a cart is an inconvenience.
The Stop n Shop brand is cheaper than others and seems like the same quality to me.

I love the items in this supermarket. I love the sales and great prices also. The bakery department has a huge selection and is much better than other markets in the Astoria/​Long Island City area. The clerks at the deli departments are always so sweet and helpful. Anytime I have ordered cold cuts I have been offered samples with a smile. Other markets? give me a dirty look when I ask. I don’t love the parking lot on the roof, it truly is an accident waiting to happen. I wish that the shopping carts were better maintained. I have a two year old and sometimes we depend on putting her in a cart and usually the ones available are disgusting or have non functioning seat belts for the kiddies. The pros at this place outweigh the cons for us. I also like the lottery ticket machines as well as the red box and gift card exchanger machine — you have the option of cashing in unwanted gift cards for cash. have never used it but I can imagine it being useful around the holidays!

I loved coming to this supermarket when my cousin still had her car because I always went to the Stop & Shops back in Boston. Prices are good and they have more variety than you would fine at the smaller groceries stores that are closer to public transportation.
Will consider walking here from my apt and taking a cab back home with my groceries. Produce, meat and seafood are fresh. It’s also clean.
The only thing that was annoying is – one Sunday afternoon we went there to pick up groceries. There was no one to be found at the seafood counter to help. We asked the deli counter for someone. Probably waited a good 20 minutes before we decided to walk around the store to get other things and then come back. Still no one and there was a line forming.

I come here sometimes when I need items that my regular supermarket doesn’t carry. There is nothing special about this place except that its well stacked. One thing I do love about this supermarket is the bakery dept. They are super nice and helpful if you ever need to order anything. They even take orders over the phone and you pay once you pick it up.

They offer a slice of the wonderful suburb supermarket experience to the folks with cars in NYC.
What I love:
1. There is always plenty of parking and the store is never crowded.
2. Stop & Shop’s own organic food brand called Nature’s Promise is brilliant. Makes buying organic a bit more affordable (but of course still pricey compared to conventional).
3. Easier than going to Trader Joe’s (Queens), see 1. so I can get 2.
4. They are open until Midnight, Monday thru Saturday. Yes, MIDNIGHT.
What I don’t love:
1. Make sure you sign up for the Stop & Shop card, many items are overpriced if you don’t use the card at check out.
2. On weekend, they don’t have enough shopping carts. Many are stuck on the roof, where the parking lot is.

This place is huge — there’s nothing you won’t find. Fairly priced and some good deals. Usually the aisles are clean and organized. A star off for staff — sometimes when you need someone, you can’t find them anywhere… and the cashiers aren’t the greatest.
A big plus is that they have self checkout for «10 items or less» … love it!!!
Also, huge parking lot and an elevator to go to the store.

It’s been ages since I’ve food shopped at any Stop & Shop locations, nevertheless I’ve always enjoyed the wide aisles of cleanliness bright space. With a long span of absentness I’ve noticed they acquired healthier brand names as All Nature’s Promise and lessen their stock of major brand names as Procter & Gamble. This location serves Long Island City and beyond.
Rooftop parking is available where select elevators lead directly to Stop & Shop’s level. Outside of the store holds no shortage of bottle/​can recycling machines.
