“Great customer service! Only reason I put 4stars because not everyone will go out their way the way the lady that attended me would. She went out her way to let me use the restroom only because I don't have a gallbladder so it's extremely imbareasing for me. I could not have held it in nomore but she noticed. She was working the front cashier and she seemed to be a fire victim as well. I wish that I could pay my respect but I will definitely give her another visit. To appreciate her gradutude. She's amazing and deserves a reward.”
“I shop at CTown on Jamaica Avenue regularly, and it has become one of my go-to supermarkets in the area. What keeps bringing me back is the combination of convenience, variety, and value that can be hard to find in one place. One of the biggest advantages of this location is the parking lot. Anyone who drives in Queens knows how frustrating it can be to find parking while grocery shopping, so having dedicated parking available makes a huge difference. I can pull in, do my shopping, load my groceries into the car, and be on my way without the usual stress of circling the block looking for a spot. The store itself is spacious, clean, and well-organized. Every time I visit, I find the shelves well-stocked with everything I need, from fresh fruits and vegetables to quality meats, dairy products, frozen foods, and everyday household essentials. I also appreciate the diversity of products available. The neighborhood is incredibly multicultural, and CTown does a good job of carrying international foods and ingredients that reflect the local community. It's often possible to find specialty items here that aren't available in larger chain supermarkets. The produce section is usually fresh and offers a good selection throughout the year. I often stop by for fruits and vegetables and end up picking up everything else on my list because it's convenient to do all my shopping in one place. The meat department is also well stocked, and I have generally been satisfied with the quality and selection available. Another reason I enjoy shopping here is the value. CTown regularly offers weekly specials and promotions that help keep grocery costs under control. With food prices rising everywhere, it's nice to find a supermarket that still provides good deals without sacrificing quality. The staff have always been friendly and helpful during my visits. Whether I'm looking for a particular item or checking out at the register, I've found the employees to be courteous and efficient. Even when the store gets busy, the checkout process moves along reasonably well. Overall, CTown on Jamaica Avenue is a dependable neighborhood supermarket that delivers what most shoppers are looking for: good prices, a wide selection of products, convenient parking, and friendly service. It's not fancy, but it's reliable, and that's exactly why I continue to shop there. I would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a solid grocery store in the area.”
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.
