Giant Eagle

The store overall is the same to most other basic giant eagles. Fine enough selection fair prices and they carry schneiders tea. I gave this two stars because time and again I go here after work to grab something quick to make at home. I had the unpleasant experience of having Janice as the worker at the deli counter. Not only did she not look like she did not want to be there but the only words that came out of her mouth was. Anything else? No hi, no thank you, no have a nice day. I even initiated the conversation and closed it by saying most of those. Im a big customer service person and it honestly disgusts me that someone who is older than myself can treat customers so badly. There was a another girl in the deli who was nice as can be and the cashier was very nice. I have come here often but this was my last time, i will be giving my business to another giant eagle or aldis closer to home. The multiple rude employee experiences i have had here far outweighs the good ones.

I was at my friends house who lives in the area. We stopped here for a few things. It was a well kept giant eagle which seemed bright & clean in my opinion, compared to city options (north side, south side.) the produce had great selection and I didn’t see them out of things we needed. We did self checkout so can’t comment on the employees.

For any locals, I’m from the San Francisco Bay Area, so my views reflect my expectations there. I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect on my first visit to «Gian’ iggle», but there weren’t too many surprises. It’s pretty similar to Safeway or Lucky’s. That is, a huge amount of processed food, and a passable produce section.
The produce was similar to what you’d see in California this time of year, maybe a touch more limited. Also, it was holiday season, so all the junk that’s associated with that too.
The obvious differences were no alcohol section at all — you can wander down the strip mall to the «Beer» store and buy mostly only in 24 packs. Apparently some of the Giant Eagles sell six packs, but not this one. Also for people from out of state, check out the pierogi section, and the chipped ham, and other Pittsburgh oddities.
For a vegan, this is easy enough — lots of produce, and all the things you’d find in any other large chain.

Staff in the deli is hit or miss, you either get the girl who is nice and friendly or the one that hacks and coughs and roll their eyes at you when you order more than one item. The cashiers talk to one another and don’t really pay attention to you and sometimes you have to watch them as they will ring up an item twice, have had that happen many times. Some sale prices are pretty good — deli prices are a bit high — ready made food prices a bit high for the quality you get. Convenient bank hours though til 7 pm. Also very good at keeping their sale items well stocked.
