“I love this Aldi! It's always clean, usually well organized, and if I can't find something, I know the staff will answer any questions. I love that they always have cute seasonal items and great deals on name brand items occasionally.”
“It's so overwhelming that it reminds me of a Wegmans. This commissary does not carry all variety of items I can get at other commissaries. I was
shocked because its so big I thought they would have everything every other one would have.”
“Really Great store I give it a 10/10, great prices and you have a variable of foods available. Staff is really friendly and ready to help out. Really recommend this place.”
“I love this grocery store-- I save at least a third on my grocery bill! They are missing a few things that I still need to go to other stores for (extra creamy oat milk & wild caught shrimp). The only thing I wish was a little different was how, when you're checking out, the cash register person seems to throw the items into the cart with little discretion to what might get crushed or bruised. They usually seem too focused on how fast they can clear the belt.
Well, yesterday I had the best experience ever with Joanne! She was so careful, and thoughtful, and deliberate with my items. I was floored! I've been going to all kinds of different locations, for well over ten years, and never had such a pleasant experience checking out. She stands out above the rest!”

“Usually I stop by on my way home right around closing time and their shelves are nearly empty, but this time I got there and everything was very nicely stocked! I needed help finding something too and a worker came right over and helped me.”
“Very nice I like the meat is fresh and they service is very good alsoVery nice I m happy with the service I will give more than 5 starsThe owner will come with you to help you meat is very good and fresh whatever you want he will give you.”
“The owner of the store never is consistent with there store hours of operation. They open and close there Mart whenever they see fit and they don't care about inconviencing there customers whatsoever!!!”
“I love shopping at Aldi. You never know what you're going to find. Shopping at Aldi is a mental outlet. I like to go into the home section so I can find some great deals. I did absolutely that and purchased some serving platters. We're having seafood nachos and tacos for dinner tomorrow. They will work out just fine!#happyshopping”
“This store lowkey does not pass the vibe check.
TL:DR - Hiring process is crap and annoying to deal with, Hispanic section is good, and their donuts are AMAZING.
Come here AT LEAST for the donuts, fr worth it.
8 of my friends (9 including me) never got any kind of response when we applied to work here, plus the managers always seemed to mysteriously unavailable to be spoken to.
I've literally called the store, got told to call back the next morning, called the next morning, "Manager on vacation" :/
when will they be back? " X date." Thanks so much.
Called back on X date, "She'll be here tomorrow morning" thanks.
Calls back tomorrow morning, "Hi, not here. Call again tomorrow morning."
At which point I came INTO THE STORE to speak with this elusive hiring manager, just to be told that they were on vacation and won't be back for a while.
: )
So suffice to say, hiring process seems messy, outdated, unreliable, and flat out non-functional at times.
The website needs to be updated, the employees need proper customer service training because regardless of what I'm calling about, and who's answering, it's always in a tone that sounds like I might aswell be interrupting a neurosurgeon mid incision.
The only redeeming quality of this store is what it sells, and I'm not talking standard groceries.
Not only does Shoppers have a decent spread of hispanic foods, ingredients, drinks & snacks, but it's also got some of, if not THE BEST donuts you could buy from a store.
The donut chains like Dunkin or Krispy Kreme got nothing on SFW donuts, they got Croissant donuts (Cronuts), marble iced, Holland Creme (my favorite), jam filled, lemon pudding filled, boston creme, and of course all your standard donut types like powdered, brown sugar, plain and glazed, not to even mention some specialty ones they have on occasion like the apple pie filled brown sugar, or marbled icing cronuts.
Plus they're reasonably priced, which automatically raises the rating for me.
(Next I get donuts I'll snap some pictures and add them!)”
“Great fresh seafood and seems like the best deal on oysters in the area. A very good choice of produce at friendly prices. That said, stay away from frozen meats and frozen seafood.”
“(Translated by Google) The tamales are delicious, good prices, they have a little bit of everything(Original)Los tamales son deliciosos, Buenos precio, tienen de todo un poco”
“Es un lugar donde encuentras cualquier tipo de alimentos, medicinas, y es un lugar donde encuentras servicios de fax, copias cambian cheques además la gente es súper agradable, y muy amables...”
“I very much recommend them, very kind and polite service and fresh halal meat. It is so important to eat clean, healthy meat and vegetables during this time, and they always have that. If you have any questions they are very friendly. Excellent goat, beef and chicken 10/10.”
“Good prices, they were putting out new stuff which is nice to see. Did self checkout as I only had a dozen things and the lady overseeing self checkout helped me look up a hot bar item (buffalo wings - very good).”
