“Please note this store sells discount food, it’s not Costco or a regular supermarket. They sell items close to expired or past Best Buy and packaging maybe damaged. This is what they do and they do it unbelievably well! This place continues to deliver!!! You won’t find raising prices here. Been coming here for years… the prices are always great. You get great food at a steep deep discount and you get to have a positive impact on the world, by keeping that food from going to waste?! Today I snagged some tortillas for a quarter, pretzel gold fish snacks packages for a dime each. Potato chips shareable size under a dollar. Chips and salsa $2.49 for both?! They sell a vegan/gmo brands like kind/Annie’s/horizon and more. Brands are forever and constantly rotating just like the selection.”
“I am so grateful for this Trader Joe’s, I’m a new mom and the cashier (totally forgot his name) he had salt and pepper hair/beard bright blue eyes and cool earrings offered to walk me to my car and help me load my groceries in this awful 115 degree heat!!! Super helpful, nice guy!!!! Thank you!!! And all the employees at this location are so helpful and their kindness radiates!!!”
“One of the best discount groceries stores around! 50% of my groceries I get there!! Manager and staff are absolutely AWSUM PEOPLE!! CANT PRAISE THEM ENOUGH!”
“Mesa Store 110 I would like to take a moment to recognize Stephanie, the cashier, for the way she handled a very difficult situation during my recent visit. The weight machine at her register was not working, and Stephanie was trying to figure out what was causing the problem. Despite the situation and the growing line of customers, she remained calm and professional. She did not allow her frustration to show or create any negative atmosphere for the customers. Even after the manager figured out the problem, another register was not opened to assist the customers who had been waiting for quite some time. Stephanie was left to handle the long line on her own. Throughout it all, she continued to apologize for the wait and personally thank each customer for their patience. I want you to know that Stephanie's calm and positive demeanor made a real difference to me. Honestly, because of the way she handled the situation, I decided not to leave my shopping cart and take my business to another store. Stephanie deserves recognition for her patience, professionalism, and excellent customer service. Employees like her make a difference in a customer's experience, especially when things don't go as planned. I also want to recognize another employee who provided me with excellent help in the bulk section. I was looking for oat bran and some other ingredients, and this gentleman took the time to help me understand the labels on the bulk items. He also explained that I could have an item ordered by the case if I needed that quantity. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name, but I wanted to make sure his efforts were acknowledged. He didn't have to go out of his way to help me, but because he was observant and attentive, he noticed that I needed assistance and helped me find what I was looking for—and even gave me additional information that was very helpful. Both of these employees made a positive impression on me. Stephanie's patience and professionalism kept me from walking away from my purchase, and the gentleman in the bulk section made my shopping experience easier by taking the time to help. Please let both of them know that their kindness, attentiveness, and willingness to help were noticed and genuinely appreciated. Employees like these make a real difference in a customer's experience. Thank you for recognizing their hard work.”
“What a great store and products, it was a beautiful experience and delicious organic products from locals. The place is spotless and customer service, excellent. They also have alive chickens 🐔”
“Love this market. It sucks it’s far from my house. They carry my hatch green chile every year. Always get 2 sacks a year. But this year I got 3 sacks. They let you try the chile also before buying. There is no refunds on this.”
“This is where we get a lot of our meat. My wife is from Mexico and she always goes there for tamales, chicharon, carnitas and carne asada. They make really good horchata too.”
“Great little grocery store! They have a bakery and deli counter where you came get ready-made, ready to eat plates (plates) that include a main dish (burrito, tacos, carne Asad, etc) plus rice and beans for $7-$15 per plata!”
“I love Sprouts over all but was in there at the Deli and ordered 4 fresh sandwiches with my son.There was a lady there named Julie who was not happy she was slamming the things around even the bread she did our sandwiches on.And she knew she was being noticed and still didn't care i almost told her not to do the sandwiches but my son said to just let it go and don't say anything. The other employee that made only 1 of our sandwiches was very nice and made my sandwich with care and that's who I asked for the other rude ladies name she said her name was Julie I told her well she doesn't look to happy and her response to me was i know she's not..”
“Come check out this amazing family owned convenience store. Wide selection of your favorite beverages and snacks, ice cream and fresh vegetables ? A hidden Gem ?”
“Nice store staff members friendly. Butcher will order specific things for you. Will also cut meat for you if ask. Has a Starbucks if you are into that. Over all clean and well kept grocery store.”
“So angry 😠, I just found this location, closer than assumed, what a mistake! Cut my groceries bill in half, I had been suffering at Walmart believing their pricing was the lowest, absolutely not. ALDI beats pricing, quality of merch, environment, customer base solid...even tried a few new items respecting my budget. Way To Go ALDI!”
“I went to self checkout Gerardo was great. He's a keeper. He helped me out a lot. It was my first time using yours he was big help. Thanks for your help Buddy.”
“Beautiful store. Welll stocked. Tons of organic. Fresh produce. Clean and well maintained. Terrific health section with lots of supplements. Lots of bulk too. Love it!”
“My dad and I went into Food City today for the first time, and this place was on point! The store was super clean, everything looked well stocked and organized, and the staff was incredibly friendly. They even had free samples throughout the store and free fruit for kids, which I thought was a really cool touch. It honestly just had a welcoming, positive atmosphere and made a great first impression on both of us. We’ll definitely be back. Great job, Food City!”
“Q: Why don't butchers use dictionaries? A: They don't want to mince their words! A carniceria is a Spanish term for a butcher shop, a specialized meat market that often provides fresh, high-quality meats and personalized service. Being born and raised in Phoenix, popping into a carniceria isn't a big deal. What it is, though, is a treat! I popped in recently for the chicharron de pella at Carniceria Murrieta's and it was delicious. Got guacamole? Pair it with chicharrones! Chicharrones with guacamole is a popular snack pairing the salty, crunchy texture of pork belly with the cool, creamy, and zesty flavor of guacamole. They sell it here. Get it!”
“The absolute best staff. Can we talk about Taylor for a minute? What an exceptional cashier. Knowledgeable, attentive, kind, just the coolest dude. Let's also talk about your meat dept + deli. Best dang team I've ever met. I tried to ask for the manager from one of the guys at the deli counter so I could give him some kudos (and help him get a raise) and he said 'Nah, I'm capped out for my wage, but I really appreciate the feedback ma'am!' This store is really doing something special with their team. It's hard for me to shop anywhere else at all. Every time I go there, there's a manager walking around greeting people - and they've all got just a great vibe. Thank you so much! I am a former grocery store customer service manager, and this team is a dream team, truly.”
“Never wrote a review before but had a wonderful experience I wanted to share. I was waiting for my sandwich to be made and walked over to bakery. Anna greeted me right away and informed me they had more cookies and pastries baked and they are cooling off but she would be happy to let me sample any. She told me about the oatmeal cranberry walnut cookies being very popular and delicious and would go great with my sandwich. I told her I would take a box. She not only boxed me the fresh and still warm cookies, but she gave me and another customer a cookie and let me know she gave me an extra one in the box - a baker's dozen from the bakery manager. Great service! I will definitely be back and will buy cookies each time.”
“Have my favorite drinks that I was driving all over town to get at total wine, all this time they had it just down the road. Family owned and great customer service. Always enjoy stopping in and they have excellent craft selections at great prices.”
“This store is so clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. Laurie helped me find an item i was having trouble finding. She also informed me of a sale that was very beneficial to my shopping needs.”
“I couldn't find anybody to help me with my cake but Inez came through and helped me with what I needed! I really appreciated her kindness to take the time to help. Great customer service. Thank you, Inez!”
“Its a grocery store, has decent deals when you catch them. If you fill 5 prescriptions at the in store pharmacy you get 20% off on top of any of the digital deals.”
“Safeway (1855 N Power Rd, Mesa) - A Neighborhood Gem! I've been shopping at the Safeway on N Power Road for a while now, and it consistently provides an excellent grocery experience. The store is always clean, well-organized, and bright, making it a genuinely pleasant place to shop. The produce section is a real highlight—everything looks fresh and high-quality, and I appreciate the wide variety of specialty items and organic options they carry. On top of that, the staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, always willing to go the extra mile, whether it's assisting with curbside pickup or answering questions in the aisles. This Safeway definitely stands out as a reliable and customer-focused market!”
“An easy walk from my apartment and my go to for a quick trip. Not over the top, just a convenient and dependable neighborhood spot I’m happy to support. It’s nice being able to run errands on foot and keep things simple. ?✨✌?”
“A nice and convenient store with a small deli and pharmacy. The employees in the pharmacy are so helpful, fast and friendly! Sufficient, but limited selection compared to the larger stores. Very clean and orderly”
“Upon our initial arrival at Food City, we found ourselves in need of their restrooms. I noticed an employee diligently working and inquired if he could assist us by opening the restrooms. He was exceptionally accommodating. In fact, he was the manager, Cesar, who displayed a high level of professionalism and kindness. The second individual from whom I sought assistance was Mark, who worked at the quick checkout. He was very kind and courteous, helping me with my purchases as I was unfamiliar with their Mi Club membership. He guided me through the process, and I successfully bought a box of strawberries for a dollar, as they were on sale. I extend my gratitude to Food City for employing such an outstanding staff.”
“Got a Pastor Burrito for $11, and it's maybe the best burrito I've ever tasted! So juicy and delicious with guac and sour cream. Service was efficient and friendly as well.”
“I talked to the manager he seemed to be a real nice guy the place is real small compared to Super Walmart but the pharmacy had my medication and and had to order one and they got it there in one day”
“I really enjoyed visiting this fine family owned business, there was great deals on things, toys stocking staffers Ebikes just a real tresure hunt, staff was kind ? and very knowledgeable about things. My new home spot! See you guys again soon thank you! Until next time.”
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
Kroger is spending $112 million to build two new stores and renovate 15 existing locations across central and northwest Ohio. The company calls it a "record-breaking" commitment to the region. The two new Kroger Marketplace stores will rise in Canal Winchester and Delaware, Ohio, each costing roughly $30 million to build. Kroger broke ground on the Canal Winchester location on March 19 at the southeast corner of Diley Road and Greengate Boulevard. The 118,000-square-foot store is expected to open in late fall 2026 and will create around 250 jobs.
Loblaw Companies Limited is putting serious money into its retail network this year. Canada's largest food and pharmacy retailer announced it will spend $2.4 billion in 2026 to open new stores, renovate existing locations and strengthen its supply chain.
