Schnucks Ladue

This Schnucks location has too much «stuff» for its size. It is very crowded during «rush hour» times. It has a great variety of items. Love the chicken wing bar.

They are the best supermarket in the area.
Nice & clean. Friendly. Good service. The lines are always moving not like Walmart.
Best produce in quality & price. Look for things on sales. Some stuff are cheaper than Walmart.

I love this store. I love the convenience checkout. You can get candy bars, deli items, salads, fried chicken and coffee all at a convenient quick checkout like the counter at a 7 – 11. You can do your regular grocery shopping too. They regularly have clearance liquor so it’s worth checking out.

Best one I’ve been to yet. Great seafood and butcher shop. Very impressive for a chain grocery store. Customer service is ok not great not bad. No one smiles there. Hmmm

Good donuts, ’cause sometimes you just feel like having a donut. The ladies in the bakery regularly have difficulty grasping the concept of «it’s for here» instead of bagging it to go.
Limited produce selection when compared to other stores. Also the layout is weird and it can be difficult to find whatever produce item you seek. Quantities on display are also limited so it can be difficult to get what you want unless you like one of the few examples on display (side note: this aspect was slightly reminiscent of shopping in some places in Eastern Europe). Staff can be abrupt and disinterested in helping you find things.
Not my favorite Schmucks but they will do in a pinch. They have good donuts…’cause sometimes you just feel like having a donut.

Two words, Benito’s gelato. That’s what I came in here for. The Arnold Schnuck’s doesn’t have it. :(This place has a tiny sitting area with free wifi. Awesome for a grocery store.

Wow! I’ve been in about five different Schnucks around the city but this one is the best! It is huge and feels more like a Whole Foods than a regular supermarket. They have a coffee/​gelato shop and an incredible wine/​beer section. The staff was super friendly as well. If I lived closer, this would be my supermarket of choice. If you are in the area and need groceries, definitely stop here!

I love this Schnucks!
First off, I love all Schnucks but this one rocks because it’s in such a convenient location. It’s right off the highway and perfect if you need to pick some stuff up before heading home or to a party.
I’ve stopped by this one countless times to pick up a bottle of wine or food for a get together. The layout is simple, the staff are friendly, and there is always plenty of parking. This location has a great selection of pre made food, too. It seems larger than your average supermarket. I highly recommend doing your grocery shopping here!

Why is it, that when a store or business is located in «Ladue» that the employees get a pissy attitude. This store could be great, but the customer service pulls it’s rating down. It has a great selection and variety in all departments. It is clean and laid out and merchandised well. It is the lousy attitude of the employees that bring this rating down.
Today we stopped by to pick up some produce and could not find what we were searching for. We looked around for an associate to assist us and none were to be found. This is the first Schnucks I’ve shopped that there was not an associate working the department. To get assistance we had to go ask someone in the prepared foods to find someone. They had to go in the stockroom, which we had opened and yelled into. She returned, saying someone would be out shortly. We waited and waited. Finally, a short, stocky, gray haired man, hit the doors open with a bit of attitude.
«What?» We told him we needed shallots. He pointed to the left and said, «look over there, they’re in the baskets. How did you miss, them» He kept on walking the entire time, did not even stop to talk to us. What if we had other questions? This was the worst customer service I have ever seen in a Schnucks and I’ve shopped around. I’ve gotten better service at the one on Lin dell.
Side-​note, one of the shallots we bought was rotten. Good thing we bought extras.

Has very quickly become my go to supermarket.
If you live in the city, you may be concerned that it’s further away than Clayton Road Schnucks or the Brentwood shopping area, but I implore you to give it a try. It’s much nicer than other Schnuck’s i’ve been to, its never too busy, and its literally straight off the highway (I kid you not, you drive right into the parking lot).
The main knock I have against this supermarket (and basically all STL ones) is that its horrifically overpriced. I will never understand the disregard for everyday low pricing and loyalty cards here.

I’ve been here a number of times for quick pick-​ups when in the area.
Produce, bakery, liquor and meat/​butcher areas are quite large with good offerings.
I got assistance locating the kiwi by an employee in the produce area, who noticed me looking stupid. I didn’t have the heart to tell him I look like that a lot.
Located the other ingredients for the desserts I’m making for a Labor Day barbeque, and found a checkout line with no line.
Bagger-​guy was extremely friendly, as he welcomed me, and we chatted about the weather.
Just a note: Schnucks brand has a fat-​free version of Cool Whip that is much cheaper than Cool Whip.

I shop here often and today I was grabbing some ingredients for dinner and a sandwich. I had an issue at the deli counter which left me quite upset. Jordan, the manager, was so understanding and handled my problem very quickly. It’s so reassuring when someone takes the time to listen. Thanks so much.

Schnucks is a decent supermarket. Reasonably priced compared to Straubs, and has better quality than a Super Walmart. However, it’s still pretty pricey for various items like cereal, etc. Despite the prices, it’s right off the highway when I come home from work and it’s real convinient.
One thing I love about Shnucks is their selection of Cheeses. OK, they’re not the BEST, but they’re pretty darn good. I’ve been looking all over town for gjetoast cheese and the Shnucks in Ladue and in Creve Coeur have it. AWESOME! I will admit that the cheeses are not cheap and usually add at least $ 20 to my checkout total.
The one thing I found really annoying was that several times when I’ve gone here I had to do my own bagging, while in the checkout line. I’m OK with that, BUT normally, when you go to an actual person to checkout your items they have a bagger. Also, during the times that there wasn’t someone bagging for me, there were clearly other baggers but just helping other people out. Well, that’s just silly. If you’re going to have baggers you really should have them for all open checkout counters, don’t be teasing me folks.

NOTE: This review is for the Benito’s Gelato stand inside of the Schnucks!
The fourth and final stop on me and Kat V.‘s Tour De Froyo led us to Schnucks. Weird, right? Not at all — there’s a Benito’s Gelato stand inside of the supermarket, and Kat insisted that I try it!
I can’t turn down gelato. I just can’t.
I had a belly full of froyo, ice cream, and ginger ale at this point, so the $ 1 baby scoop of gelato was PERFECT. I recommend this size if you just want a taste; it really wasn’t baby sized at all! There were two generous, golf-​ball sized scoops of gelato on a tiny cone. Perfect.
There were about 8 flavors to choose from, but I settled with the Italian chocolate chip. Good choice, Steph. It was creamy, rich, and had plenty of sweet chocolate chips throughout.
I highly recommend!

If you don’t mind dodging the senior citizens circling around the parking lot while trying to get to the door, then this is your place if you’re in Clayton.
I always hit up the soup bar and I head straight to the secret soup bar, yes, that would be the one beyond the salad bar and the standard soup offerings. This is the bar near the back offering up piping hot seafood selections. Yum Yum gimme some! I have grown to love the chowders and bisque’s and tend to always have a great lunch on the go.

I stopped here because I craving some raisin bread while driving around (I-​I just-​I just can’t explain my cravings… Sigh) and I decided to look around. Large liquor section. Has things that I love that I haven’t seen at any other Schnucks (I didn’t buy anything, but I bring Mr. Boozy to my U City friends’ places all the time so that will be convenient). The shop has a unique sitting area that isn’t connected to the stand. The stand has a weight, so if you want a piece of fruit with some tea or whatever, they can weigh it for you. Brilliant! At the store I work at, you can scan something but it is just a hand scanner, which doesn’t allow you to have a scale.
The store is funkily laid out, and it took me a sec to figure things like where the bread was. And the parking lot is interested to the point it bugs me how odd it is laid out… But other than that, I got to see some people that were transferred from my store and that was a plus!

This is the only Schnucks I’ve ever visited, as it’s under a mile from my house, so I have no others to compare it to.
The first time I visited I bought some beer and boneless skinless chicken breast. I handed the cashier (an older male) my drivers license (from Michigan) and he asked for «another picture i.d. and another card that has your name or picture on it.» WHAT. I look near identical to my driver’s license photo (except I wasn’t wearing a parka while purchasing the beer) and I didn’t even think I carried another picture i.d. on me. I asked the cashier if this was policy and he said yes because I was from out of state; all out of state patrons had to give two forms of picture i.d. I somehow managed to find another picture i.d. in my wallet (my sad undergrad card) and gave him a debit card. He didn’t like that both of those had the word Michigan on them and asked why I was here. I told him I had just moved here and he battered me with questions about why I didn’t have my license changed and why I was living here and what my address was. I was infuriated and almost about to walk out when his manager came over (I guess he had called her over when I was going through my wallet). She looked at my i.d.‘s and asked me the same string of questions and finally let me have my six-​pack. Absolutely ridiculous. Oh, and my chicken was stringy and smelled bad.
I insisted I’d never go back but of course I have once or twice since it’s too close for me to turn down if I need a couple things. I (accidentally) bought beer there one other time and wasn’t even carded. Nice policy.
Excellent cheese, decent prices, and lousy customer service. You can decide if this Schnucks is for you. I’ll take my business elsewhere.

Geez, you freaking have a Benito’s Gelato stand in here now? Your mini carts have cup holder should I get a latte? This is getting a little silly.

Schnuck’s is one of the best grocery stores around. The produce selection is always great, and I always run into someone I know when I’m there. The Ladue Crossing location is one of the best, and my family shops there regularly.
Whenever I’m waiting in line for the deli workers at Publix to slice my meat and cheese for me, I think back to Schnuck’s where the meat is pre-​sliced, and equally tasty, and everything moves much, much faster.
It’s also great because they stock so many local St. Louis products: Red Hot Riplets, Pasta House Co. Salad Dressing — it’s all there. Whenever I’m in town, I try to go grocery shopping with my mom to stock up on all my St. Louis favorites (well, the ones that are easy enough to take back to Miami on the plane…).
