This is just an utter fail. Perhaps the rename is meant to distance the Golub name from its Price Chopper heritage, but Market 32 is a proverbial (stinking) rose, and going by another name doesnt make the smell any less intolerable. (I dont mean to impugn garlic, but to deny its odor is to destroy credibility.)The store is understaffed, and what staff there is–with a couple of notable exceptions–make it worse rather than better. The (astronomical) prices are almost beyond belief. The selections are pitiful and buy into horrid tropes about the clientele. And any hope of using this grocer as a complete solution to your grocery needs is to fail to notice it is little more than a non- resident-owned bodega, unconcernedly extracting from the neighborhood and putting nothing back into it.I gave this place several tries over several months to allow for some indication that it was a temporary problem that might get solved. Nothing of the sort happened, nor do I ever expect it given what Ive seen.Go elsewhere. Buy elsewhere. Believe nothing to the contrary; it will avail you. This is rancid, dehumanizing, solely profit-centered enterprise that should never see your hard-earned money.

Mostly helpful staff, store was decent looking if you dont include the disgusting restroom. Lines are always a little long and takes forever at self checkout. Overall not my favorite store but they are open 24 hours so thats convenient.

I just want to give a complement to the person who takes care of the lot - his name is Chris - and I think he does an excellent job - he not only puts the carts where they belong but he cleans the lot of trash, pulls the weeks around the poles waters down the walkway- and I just think he’s awesome 👏 👍🏼

Literally, the worst and rudest deli staff! Like, instead of saying pardon me or excuse the girl says I need to open this case now. SMH! Then the lady cutting got the order wrong twice. Politeness and professionalism is still a thing ya know. Not to mention, 20 minutes to cut less than 1 pound of 2 types cold cuts.

On the plus side I really enjoy shopping here because they have fresh produce and the people are really friendly. If that was a manager that helped bag my stuff today she was really dope. She bag exactly how I would bag my groceries.Pros would be that things are pricey I spent at least 80 more dollars in there then I would at C-Town. But then again I am in Albany 🤷

Dropping by occasionally.One time there was a puddle of urine at the carts pick-up spot. Not a nice start to do shopping. Probably someone used that spot as a toilet at night.As for the rest, average supermarket. Nice assortment, helpful staff.

Its okay. They will probably have what you need. It feels like this store caters to the Snap benefits crowd. Because the prices are OUTRAGEOUS! They are ridiculous with their prices. I would blame covid, but even before that they were expensive. Thats why I frequent Shop Rite. The best store in Albany. I wish it was them up the block.

The bathroom is always unsanitary. Its a bad reflection on price chopper and 32 markets. Other than that, the prices vary. Some cashiers are doing their job and are customer orientated. But, everything that is bad at this store, has alot of reflection on the mgr of the store, policies not be followed. Make this store better and cleaner and more friendly towards customers.then no problems.

I hear the various responses ranging from disappointed altogether as well as signs of brighter qualities. it is valid to express ones unhappy experiences. I feel they do a fair job here and I am always greeted and dealt with in a courteous and cheerful manner. Not every place will be award-winning, but I am happy they are here and nearby when I dont feel like venturing further north to another store. Thank you for how you all try to make it a pleasant experience. I do wish things were stocked more regularly. I too wish at times things were more frequently replaced to the shelves. Given I know little of the inner gears of supply and availability, I shall not have this reflect in my rating. Thank you for working to do your best. Stay well. Market 32 is basically a favorite place to shop.

My experience was OK, but at check out the lady did not apply the discounts on the meat i picked out. She peeled of the discount label and stuck them on the side an only later when i looked at the receipt i saw that she never applied the discount. Next time i will definitely check the receipt before leaving the store.

Review №36

Worst customer service Ive ever experienced, the cashiers dont pay attention and are always in their phones, they dont bag your items but they get extremely impatient and dont wanna wait for you to bag your own purchased items before sending the next customers items down the belt. The last time I was there I paid cash for my items, when handing back my change the cashier was staring at her phone as she tried to hand me my money and dropped all my change on the floor. Then she looked at me like it was my fault and huffed and puffed when I asked her to pick it up... She also made sure to finish her text message before doing so. Are we not the reason they get a paycheck?

I go to this store all the time. A loyal frequent shopper, and I use my college’s reusable bag to shop. Tell me why today 6/29/2020 I go in there to get my groceries and I put them in the bag, like I always do.There were 3-4 employees tailing me in every aisle. It was so uncomfortable, I couldn’t even get everything I needed. This is the only store I shop at because it’s right across from my house. It was such an unpleasant experience and it bothers me because I have never stolen a day in my life. My conscience won’t allow me to do that. They were probably new employees because I’ve never experienced this before, but Do better!

Unfortunately as we all know zero stars is not an electable option. With a grave understanding of the same, the poor and pathetic service I received at the hands of the “store manager” Mike was despicable for a lack of better words. Not only was this Mickey Mouse clown unable to address and resolve a relatively simple question I had; the manner in which he conducted himself was unacceptable and the appropriate senior level management team needs to explicitly be aware of the same. Not only did I feel publicly ostracized, he embarrassed me and left me with an extremely sour taste in my mouth.I am presently traveling for work this week and reside out of state in San Diego. Thankfully I am only in town for the week however; I now have to grossly inconvenience myself and go out of my way and find another local grocery store as it’s blatantly apparent this gentleman does not have a thorough understanding on how to do his job and if this one simple and routine aspect of his responsibilitiesis overlooked and neglected, I fear for my safety and that of the neighborhood patrons who frequent this store as I can only imagine the corners this individual is likely cutting and extending misinformation to his employees and other direct reports.Market 32 please do yourself a favor in the spirit of avoiding potential litigation and sever ties with this knucklehead. Based on my limited exposure, it’s evident he lacks the needed skills to properly manage a store and his continued employment within the capacity of a manager will ultimately end adversely for your organization and considerations for a change should not be ignored.Thanks for nothing Mike. I know your job requires the skills of a rocket scientist, but it’s time to hang up your smock and punch out chief.

I figured I would go to the nearest PC to get nasal spray at 2am in morning. I get there and the aisle is gated off. I get why one may do this, but the community shouldnt have to suffer. Im aware of there being security but not at night? I see why they call it the ghetto chopper.

The place is pretty decent. The selection is okay. There are a lot of items I I would recommend that they stock, that they dont. However, the staff is semi friendly depending on when you catch them. For being called the ghetto Chopper Its relatively clean. Three stars

Review №59

Bakery manager lied to my face when asked “ when was the the “fresh” French bread last baked and stated “ we bake our bread every am fresh”. Going against my better judgement I bought the bread, 2 4 1 deal in the middle of the week, and realized I was right. The packaging did not match the time sticker as it was oily from what ever on the back and was hard and moldy tasting on the ends. I called another baker I usually go to and asked general questions and she was disgusted as well. She said she will tell her manager and I stated I don’t want a $2 refund or anything I just wanted fresh made bread as it was marketed. Totally marking this location a do not enter.

Review №61

This place is...okay. The shelves are usually fully stocked, the selection is better than most small town supermarkets, but it certainly is lacking in areas such as restroom cleanliness. In no fewer than twice in the last three uses of said restroom was the toilet paper roll empty. Never is there any hand soap. To say that no staff seem to care about their jobs there would be an understatement. 3 stars.

Review №62

90% of the staff seem completely indifferent in providing quality customer service and often one is made to feel as though they are inconveniencing the cashiers (who are rarely actually staffed at the full service check out lines) The prices are frequently inaccurate and if pricing is correct they are astronomical and seem to be out of sync with other similar stores. The fact that this is the only accessible grocery store for many of the residents of Albany it’s rather disheartening to see. Otherwise you should be aware of the frequency of sale items conveniently and often not in stock, the lack of rotation of product resulting in expired products remaining on shelves, finally be prepared to check your own groceries out even when the store is extremely busy. You’d think that given the ridiculously high prices that they could at the very least not insist that you be responsible for checking and bagging your groceries. SMH 🤦‍♂️ I’m certain this is not the image the Golub family ever envisioned for the business. I shop here out of convenience but proceed with caution.

Visiting the Capital Region, I stopped in at this Market 32 location to purchase bottled water, and also checked the fresh produce dept. for fruits. I got water and guavas.It’s my second time shopping at a Market 32, all due to its location and convenience as I passed through the area.Their selection is not extensive, and also I can’t fathom why the words ‘Price Chopper’ is part of their name/brand.In conclusion, going forward... I’ll skip Market32 altogether.@SweetFaceGypsy

Was in the store on Delaware at 9 p.m bought produce went to check out no registers were open only self checkout asked if there was a register open a rude employee said he went to the bathroom we struggled to try and get self checkout to put in prices and weight for produce as four female employees stood not five feet away talking about there baby daddy and complaining about there dss caseworker making them get a job we asked for help after about 15 minutes of trying to get self checkout to work employees started yelling at us saying we told you he went to the bathroom. My question why couldnt one of the four help us anyway we ended up leaving groceries on self checkout Lane and walked out

The product is what you would typically find at any Market32, minus a few things because they dont have high square footage. Customer service is HORRIBLE! I can never find someone when I need them, the cashiers are all teenagers who love to gossip openly about drama, and they often ignore a guest or make them feel uncomfortable.

Great for after work or middle of the night runs. But I wouldnt make a point to do my weekly shopping here. Has a pretty good stock of basics and things you would find in bigger stores but on more than one occasion I have come to this store for an item and to go elsewhere to find it.

It ISNT overpriced, it actually is very fair. Anyone who has to do household groceries can get a lot for their money. Its newly renovated, and though theres no butcher or seafood counter, you can get quality meats and produce for little money. Its clean, and the staff are pleasant. Groceries arent cheap these days but this store has a decent variety so you can go from cheap to name brand and it wont empty the wallet. And if you have to get stuff at three am its open.

I like market 32 I like a lot of their products a lot of The Price choppers have cleaned up their act the stores are looking much better than they once did the staff is more courteous and polite and willing to help and that makes a lot of difference especially the store and Price chopper in Westgate theyre very good at what you do say do I cannot speak highly enough of your front end management I wish I could remember the one young ladys name who whenever help is needed shes just automatically there hes definitely definitely an added bonus very good people skills and very good at what she does next time I will make sure I get her name so I can put it up there

At Price Chopper on Delaware Avenue in Albany at 10:30 PM the night of the Madison Ave fire, an older adult woman and an younger adult man were observed rushing down the produce aisle arm-in-arm to exit the PC store through the front entranceway. Once outside the store they were stopped by the pursuing store manager, as I was walking into the store. Upon appropriate confrontation, they gave-up the several large ounce cans of beer they were concealing. They pleaded and excused their own behavior with their statements to the store manager. When he asked the older adult female to please empty her handbag she appeared angry and spewed verbal abuse at the store manager, but then another large can of beer exposed itself. Unfortunately, the police were not notified, and these 30-something adults were allowed to walk away. This suggests to me that local management is trying to contain the chronic theft problem with which they may confront all day. It makes me wonder IF corporate Price Chopper turns a blind eye to the facts of store theft they clearly must know occurs at this business location. Thats not good news for the Hudson Park, Washington Park, and other contiguous neighborhoods of the Delaware Avenue Albany Price Chopper. Allowing this criminal behavior to go undetected and unreported has counterproductive consequences. The Delaware Avenue Price Chopper store location is the destination of choice for the lie, cheat, and steal class of lowlifes endemic within Albany and all our modern cities. Shame on you Corporate Price Chopper for your neglectful and irresponsible neighborhood citizenship!

Pretty sure they doubled all the prices in the store knowing most people that live in the area are poor and without transportation leaving them forced to shop there .I also believe they depend highly on food stamps given its location knowing most people who receive those services are less likely to complain about the price .. Hannaford is so much cheaper and better deals

Market 32 is the place I shop most of veggies and meat along with bakery products and deli meat and cheese. Theyve got wide range of products to choose from and the staff are way friendlier compared to other market 32s or price choppers.I love the apple custard pastry from the bagels section. Also the pound butter cake from the bakery.
