“As someone who is observing from the outside, I want to express my gratitude and thanks to Stop & Shop manager Seon Hall at 70-20 Rockaway Beach for their efforts in the community. Over the years, Mr. Hall has been a strong advocate and supporter of various community organizations, including the 100th Police community council. He has allowed them to stand on the premises and ask customers for food donations, and with the approval of Stop & Shop corporations, has even donated water, turkeys, and gift cards. I am also grateful to the entire management team at Stop & Shop, including Mark Allman, Mark Lawrence, Linden Chance, Sharon Spooner, Michelle Lawrence, Chris Castellano, and Erik Brennan, as well as all the staff members for their excellent customer service. It is heartwarming to see a company like Stop & Shop give back to the community and support local organizations. This is why it is crucial for us to support businesses like Stop & Shop with our money so they can continue making a positive impact in our communities. Thank you, Stop & Shop, for your dedicated service to the Rockaway s community.”

“They are a nice supermarket, great staff, good prices. Kinda small to maneuver around in but other than that it's a good store I like the prices the food is fresh and the company is friendly.”
