“Very good dairy section. Tasty milk. Well organized. You need an account for self checkout which means prepared to get data mined and spammed... but other than that the place has high quality food and beverage.”
“Awesome place with great staff. You will find items that you won't find anywhere else. Very clean and organized place and very large selection. David (might be a manager) was very friendly and helpful. He went out of his way on a busy day to help us identify some foods we never tried before. Excellent!”
“Friendly place with very nice coffee bar. They even offered cream. The potato knish was outstanding!!! Vegetable soup was 2 out of 10. So overall great place, just they need someone to teach them how to cook soup.”
“This supermarket is one of my favorites. It’s always clean, spacious, and really well organized. Their takeout is consistently fresh, and they truly have options for just about anything you might need.
What really makes this place stand out are the small details—like offering smaller carts for quick trips and hooks on the sides of carts for bags. It just makes shopping easier.
They’re also incredibly convenient with their hours, open early in the morning when most places are still closed and staying open late. Overall, a solid 5-star experience every time.”
“Kiddos to Jessica from the Toms River BJs Bakery. When we called to place the order she was so kind and when we received the cake it was beautiful and delicious. You’re wonderful Jessica I would definitely recommend BJs in Tom’s River, NJ”

“A very clean Latinix market. Fast service by the proprietor. I was looking for Tamarindo's Frescos. He immediately offered to help. I spoke to him in his native tongue. I'm always practicing. Parking there can be a little tricky. Enter site slowly.”
“Good place prices are a little to high but sandwiches are great again there is two workers who works by the sandwich bar one is awesome second one is a little nastyBut the grocery is small but have must stuff and they are fresh!!!”
“This store has everything you could ever want in a grocery store. They have all the regulars plus full bakery, takeout, and sushi bar. There's a ton of self checkout kiosks as well as regular checkout counters. Overall it's another great location by the popular Gourmet Glatt chain.”

“ALDI in Toms River is basically the definition of “do a quick run” that turns into a full-on haul… for the price of a coffee and a danish. ?
This location is clean, organized, and set up in that classic ALDI way: you walk in, grab what you need, and somehow your cart is full of things you didn’t know you needed (hello, random seasonal aisle). The prices are legit, especially on staples — dairy, produce, snacks, pantry basics — and the store-brand stuff is often surprisingly solid.
A few pro tips for anyone who doesn’t live in ALDI:
Bring a quarter for the cart (yes, it’s normal, yes, you get it back, yes, the first time feels like a shidduch shailah).
Bring your own bags or be ready to bag in the car like a seasoned professional.
The checkout is fast — like, fast fast — so have your payment ready unless you want to do that awkward “hold on one second” shuffle while the line grows behind you.
The staff here are usually friendly and efficient, and even when it’s busy it moves along pretty smoothly. Parking is straightforward, and it’s an easy in-and-out for a weeknight grocery run.
Bottom line: if you want good quality basics, great prices, and a no-frills shopping trip that doesn’t take your whole day, this ALDI is a win.”
“I really liked this store since there are Peruvian products plus cookies that are not easy to get in most stores and there is a variety of creams and products and the store is large. ??”

“Really good prices. I like the store because it's not an overwhelming selection. Basic stuff, plus some extras. They moved the item locations, but shelves are easy to scan for product. The aisles are very clearly marked. Bathroom is always clean and supplied.”

“this place has everything one would need, we brought oxtail at a great price, way cheaper than the super market, the butcher was very patient with ny cheap mother.”
“This Shoprite might not be very big but it's the absolute best in my opinion. The new chef they have working the food service department has turned the department into prime food to go lunch spot. The fried chicken and hot bar entrees are high quality and professionally prepared. Since the addition of the new chef and the well training he gave his crew, this place has really come up and gotten on track. I really hope they have him running the food service department when the new Manchester Shoprite goes up on Rt 37, not too far after the circle. Do your self a favor and stop in for lunch, they do not disappoint. ????????”
