It's a clean store. People are nice enough. The prices are a bit higher. The problem is since the New York State laws have banned plastic bags, King Kullen has resorted to paper bags as many other stores have. Unlike their competition however, they have chosen extremely cheap brittle paper bags that tear extremely easily in spite of double bagging attempts by their staff. As a result every time I shop there , most of the bags tear, the products end up on the concrete garage floor. The plastic and glass containers break and create a mess. The eggs shatter. The prices don't matter if a percentage of what I buy has to be thrown away because it's contaminated by the garage concrete floor and has to be replaced. It's just pointless to shop there anymore until this gets resolved. Their competing stores do use a higher grade of paper bags which tear less often and therefore there is less waste. I won't be going there anymore. It's a shame. It is not a problem just of this store in Island Park, rather it is a corporate decision that affects all their stores.

King Kullen in Island Park was the perfect place to run in and grab a few items, but not do a full shop because their prices are much higher than Stop and Shop. Great thing about this store are the easy parking and the cleanliness. So what changed? It may sound d*** to some, maybe most, but after Covid, they closed the bathrooms to customers. One of my biggest reasons to shop there was because I could access the bathroom without having to go to the back of the store and walk through the dark, dingy, storage area to get to a bathroom, which are always filthy, (Stop and Shops bathrooms). But when you gotta go... so when I went to King Kullen, it was a welcome change and found myself shopping there several times a week. Now that they closed off the convinence of the bathrooms, I am not shopping there at all. Trader Joes, Stop and Shop, Marshalls, and all other stores bathrooms are now opened. Anyway, wont be going back until the restrooms reopen.

Overpriced on everything, difficult to find things, the store was crowded, and I waited over 5 minutes for a change at the checkout counter to buy a bag of items, even after I said a very cordial hello to the checkout girl who didn't bother to look up,or say hello-everyone has bad days but that just summarized the 20 minute experience there. What a waste of time. I heard this place was nicer and better than our other Long Beach choices. Not true at all, except there are no bag/bottle people in front of the store-guess that's the plus here.

I travel back and forth from NY to Arizona to take care of my family. I buy grocery's for my grandparents and beer for myself while I am here. For the past two years have never had an issue. A few days ago when I came here they asked for my license. I am 26 years old. I presented my license and they said it had to be checked with the manager. I said of course no problem. "Heather" (manager) comes back with my license and says that's funny you think you're license expires after 8 years. I'm not selling you anything. Obviously acting as if I'm a child with a fake ID. I explained it's a real license and that's how the state law is over there. It's valid till the age of 65 because that's when Arizona deemed an eye test renewal is mandatory. She simply could have scanned it in the computer as every person does or used to do when I would purchase alcohol. (Sadly I don't look like I'm under the age of 21 anymore.) She then looks up in her book for licenses (obviously sees I'm correct) and says it shows it right here. I asked to see where it says that and she slammed the book shut. Then I asked to speak to the manager and he would not tell me her name and had to ask her at least 3 times for her to finally tell me. As someone who has spent thousands of dollars here in the past few years I will never be back. I've never been so publicly embarrassed and treated with such a lack of professionalism.

This is a very nice King Kullen. I was in the neighborhood and stopped for a few items, a gift card, and a lotto. I found my Stella Artois in the cans which is more convenient for me, and not that easy to find in my stop n shop. The store is clean and well stocked, everything is convenient and the staff are very helpful, on the floor, they clear the way for you. Best of all the Courtesy Desk is staffed with wonderful, courteous, quick and pleasant personnel. The ladies, especially Veronica R., really show true professionalism and I just wanted to acknowledge. I will will return to this store, if I am ever in Island Park again.
