Saturday Christmas Party Day at GE. All kind of food stations to taste all kinds of food. The star was a roast beef concoction on a crostini, crab cake, chocolate, salad...wait that sounds like an entire meal. Add in a Starbucks coffee taster and Live music and you have a fun meal/day. Naturally it was packed. Nice job GE Grandview!

This place is always so organized and clean. I'm not from the area originally and I always feel safe there. Today there was an older gentleman worker who I wish I got the name of but he was the absolute sweetest and helped me out picking out eggs. Cannot speak higher of the staff I've interacted with.

This grocery store has everything you could need. It's so nicely organized and for someone who moved here from the east coast is the closest thing I could get to a Wegmans. It's very clean and fair priced. The discount program is great and easy to use. As a vegetarian, they carry lot of the fake meat brands. Great customer service as well!

Wine night is one of the best deals in Columbus! Every Friday, Giant Eagle in Grandview offers 6 wine or beer tastings plus a plate of 3 food offerings. We have gone 2 times since they starting having wine night again. The live music is always great and the employees hosting wine night are always so kind! We really enjoy the different theme nights and seeing what wine and food options they have to offer. The bartenders are always super knowledgeable about each option and can tailor the tasting to what you enjoy. The food is always hot and very good! You typically get an appetizer, meat and side (see attached menu photo). We will definitely be back!!

The former Wine Nights are back as Flights and Bites! A slight upgrade on the food selection but the same great wine. I've been twice now since they have been back - the first night a great selection of wine (3 red, 3 white) plus a beer option, served with Asian food! Tonight was a wine tasting (again 3 red, 3 white with a beer), and a heavy nacho bar type food. Definitely a great value ($15 for 6 samplings and dinner). Love the live music and I'm excited for it to gain more traction!

As a former frequent flyer of Giant Eagle wine night, I am happy to say it's back and better than ever! All 6 wines in the "flights" were fantastic - nice variety of reds and whites. The "bites" were also delicious - pork carnitas was the fan favorite. Live music was a nice touch. Will definitely be coming back!4 stars only because I think the atmosphere will be better when the event is hosted outside.

With rising prices on groceries and the availability of better product (Whole Foods & Kroger) for lesser prices--you would think stores would be interested in engaging customer loyalty. But not this trash location. I had a manager go out of her way to treat me like a thief. I needed assistance, as the pasta I was trying to ring up at the self-checkout wouldn't scan and the blackberries (on sale for $3.50 down from $8) were ringing at full-price. Anyhow, the woman took the items to another register, and made a comment about me to the other associate that apparently amused him. Five mins. later she called for a price check. During this time, she insinuated that I was lying about the price and that berries are expensive. Ma'am, I'm aware of the prices of berries--this is why I thought they were a deal. Also, I'm buying $9 fresh pasta; I know where to spend my money. Anyhow, after 2 mins. the other associate came back and reported what I said in the beginning--$3.50. The manager decide to then asked me a third time how much they were--even after confirming it at her register and wasting time by sending someone over for a price check. At that point I abandoned my cart and walked out. I will never step foot in this location again.

Disappointed in the recent experiences at Giant Eagle.I use to LOVE this location. It close, convenient and always a great selection. However lately the selection isn't as good and they are out of many things. But the worst part is they have moved to paper bags!! The handles always break and your groceries have to be cleaned up off the floor or in the parking lot. They definitely are great for carrying up 3 flights of stair at my condo. It has become so frustrating I have been going to Kroger more since they give the option of the plastic bags. I'm tired of this forcing of paper bags! Unfortunately the reusable bags are so unsanitary with all the chicken juices and grossness. What happened to loving trees?!!! I'm getting closer to making the full switch to Kroger.

Have I been punk'd? This may be one of the dumbest designed stores I've seen, and I've been to multiple IKEA's. I don't know if they're trying to be trendy or the design team in Pittsburgh was trying another new concept after a drunken night of inhaling fumes from a hay ride and remembering getting lost in a corn maze and how fun it could be. It's so difficult to navigate mainly because it's so different than a normal grocery store.There's a bar... but who's going here to hang at the bar? I get it's in a college town but just because Ohio State would crush Pitt in any football game isn't a reason to bestow this store on the fine folks of Columbus, OH. Maybe the bar is there to ease your frustration with shopping here.Don't get me wrong, the contents of the store are awesome, but try to get from one area of the store to another and you'll be baffled. The seafood and cheese are tucked into a rear corner. Some aisles don't go the whole length of the store and you have to weave around, making it difficult to get to some items. Maybe they'll try and sell you a GPS or carts with a locator.The beer area is off to the left as you enter and there's a liquor store too, but you can't bring your cart in, and there's nowhere to park the buggy. So you end up just leaving it in front of some of the beer choices, hoping someone doesn't take it with all the goodies you piled in already. Another miss from the design team.As someone who is no longer a GE Advantage Card holder (mine fell apart into multiple layers long ago), the fact that you can't use the self checkout without one is absolutely bonkers! It's complete insanity and I was dumbfounded and standing there not knowing what to do, trying to find the continue button or something. A simple "if you don't have a GE Card, then go to a regular checkout" message would have saved me time, which is what self checkout is supposed to do anyway.I would imagine once you know where everything is, it would be OK, but seriously someone was thinking a little too outside the box or was about to miss a deadline to turn in the floorplan. The Big Birds at Giant Eagle HQ need to lay off the Speckled Bird and keep it simple!

Although I usually have another go-to grocery store, sometimes I stop by this location for a few things. For a Giant Eagle, it's not bad!The parking lot is huge but can fill up during the popular times. The one perk of having such a large store is that most areas aren't crowded even if there are a lot of people shopping. There is a really nice liquor store and a wine/beer section. There are quite a few different varieties and it's located on the left hand side so if you're just getting the booze you don't even have to go through the store! Win!There is also a "bar" and some TV's so you can stop by for a drink if that's your thing. There is a large salad bar and they have hot food as well. This store also has some specialty areas: the deli and cheese sections and robust and lots of various prepared foods or those boxes where they give you all the ingredients to make your own meal, all in one box! The meat and seafood section is large and they have some impressive offering. The bakery is huge (btw, GE cake and frosting are delicious!!!) The personal care and pharmacy section is all the way on the right. As a Cleveland girl I have always disliked Giant Eagle ( it's the only comprehensive mid price grocery in the Cleveland area) but this location is softening me up a bit. The cashiers and staff are pretty friendly. Plus the gas station is on the side of the parking lot. All the chores, done!
