Giant Eagle

I don’t know about the rest of the store, but the bakery folks were as good as it gets! I don’t know if she is still there, but I was particularly impressed with a girl named Jessica in the bakery. She knew I picked up the same thing everyday and she made sure I was taken care of. It was nice being in a store where people knew what you needed and they made sure it was available and good. I really like this store and the people that work there!

Not a bad little place. Clean. Walked around for a while but did not have anyone ask if I needed help, which would of been nice due to the fact I am not from this area (or state). But found what I was looking for. Small beer selection, nice that they did have a walk-​in for it. A plus is the State Store within the GE.

good clean store and great pre made burgers

Need to get some snacks and fresh produce for the Fam while on the road. It’s kinda fun checking out regional grocery stores to compare what I’m missing back home and vice versa.
Eagle’s Nest children activity center is interesting. I’ve never seen a child care facility at a grocery before. I guess an older child would rather kick it with the computer or other fun kiddie activities instead of traveling up and down the aisles. I’m pretty sure my mom would have used this service back in the day, instead of dealing with me hanging off the cart, pulling crap off the shelves that she wasn’t gonna buy.
The strategically placed chicken pot pie signage got my attention, so I got one, along with some chicken strips. The good dude behind the counter assured me that the strips were good. He was right.
The hot food I picked up was derishus. Pot pie was hearty and flavorful. I’m bummed there’s no bottom crust lining the pie tin, but the top crust was delightfully light and flaky. Chicken strips were quite good… seasoned coating and moist bird, not overcooked and dry or sitting way too long in the display case.
The gal at the checkout register. I don’t know what to make of this one. Cranky, bad day, visit from Aunt Flow? I’m not from around these parts, so I don’t carry a frequent shopper card. Other places either hook me up with the store discount anyways, or at least give me an opportunity to sign up. Not her. No store savings this time, pal. I wonder which card she pulled… the Pay Full Price card. Boo on her.
Despite Ms Meanie on my way out, the rest of the experience wasn’t terrible.
