Absolutely love this grocery store has a wide selection of everything you could want.very organized check out lines. Excellent customer service. Best grocery carts in town with all the shelves built in drink n purse holder.Has a really great rewards program that either gives you money off your grocery bill or let you save significantly on gas from Get Go which is their sister gas station. For example I spend about $350 a week for a family of 6 ... that usually gets me .80 cents off per gallon. If I save for two weeks I save about 1.50 per gallon. Its well worth it!

This is probably one of the top 3 Giant Eagles Ive ever been in. Extremely clean, well organized, well stocked, beautiful displays, extremely friendly staff.... Im surprised to say Im blown away by a grocery store and envious that GE near me cant come close to competing with those one. Great job!

The gentlemen who greets the customers as we enter the store is always cheerful, which set the tone for me while I shop.Its always good to be greeted with kindness as one enters the grocery store.

True a lot of the items are pricier than walmart, but I will gladly pay to be anywhere but Walmart. Also, if you follow sales they are competitive with pricing on the selected sell items. The meat section has some of the most beautiful cuts in town and produce is always good.

Had never been fortunate enough until the other day to visit a giant eagle grocery store. Availability and selections were more than enough to choose from. The deli was my lunch time favorite while out of town. Though view of giant eagle was higher than a friend of mine who wanted tacos from the deli for his lunch and nothing was available such as lettuce tomatoes sour cream taco sauce etc etc.

The selection at this store isn’t great, but you’ll likely find what you’re looking for, even if it’s not your favorite brand or the best price. I do wish they didn’t require you to buy 3 or 5 or 10 of something to get the discounted price, but that’s not specific to this store, and most grocery stores work this way anymore. Just beware that the discount isn’t always worth the bulk purchase.

Excellent experience getting my first COVID shot. The wait was short, and the pharmacy was able to keep to their schedule. There was enough seating and everyone waiting was able to stay distanced.I was so impressed after hearing the horror stories from people who have used the mass vaccination fairs or other facilities. Giant Eagle has worked out a great system and has the right people.

No complaints. I just need to remember that on quick trips with a short list, the Altoona G.E. is probably not my best option; unless I know that they have something that R.S. does not. Larger, clean store. Greeter at the entrance was pleasantly cheerful.

The setup of the floorplan of this place feels so out of place backwards and downright depressing and for that reason I tend to avoid going there.

Bought Rotten slimy rancid smelling filet mignon from the butcher 8 times as of today. Was nice about it at first and dealt with the store manager. Then to corporate who had regional handle it who just stuck up for his manager buddy. Today was the last time I will ever buy your meat. Last week was a bad entire chicken. The deli cut our cheese on the meat slicer and gave us cheese with meat chunks all through it and used red and white paper that made the cheese turn red lol. Now we have to ask to cut it on the cheese slicer with no meat. The produce is rotting. What is going on at this store?! Used to be the only place I would buy my meat and produce. Not anymore!

Review №39

Refused to cut more steak because it was about 20 minutes before closing time on the last day of the sale. It’s one thing to be out. Refusal to cut more when you have it in the back or give a rain check on the price when asked is another. 🤷‍♂️ Circular should be corrected with times and not just dates if so.

Employees are helpful, produce section is well organized and sometimes the apples are even polished, lol. Health and safety rules are clear and I enjoy the directional flow that helps social distancing. Also, curbside pickup is quick and convenient providing a truly contactless means of fulfillment.

This store offers a great variety of choices. They have a great ethic food section. I do love Giant Eagle. The onky reason I did not give all 5 stars because their prices tend to be higher than other stores in my area. Sometimes, paying a bit more is worth the options.

I do most of my shopping here. Its convenient. You do accumulate gas money discounts when you have a giant eagle card.A lot of the brands are giant eagle. They seem to push those. Especially the meats.I usually get my meat at Weis or local butcher.

Review №78

Good pricing on some products. Nice selections in the meat department. I like their hot bar chicken very tasty. Unfortunately the cashiers are rude. I try to use self check out when ever possible. As tasty as the chicken at the hot bar is it is a pain trying to get anyone to wait on you. I have gone and there were literally three employees standing around the area everyone one of them saw me, but not ONE of them came over to help me. I think it is great they hirer mentally challenged people and give them work opportunities, however they really need to train them better. EVERY time I come in I get hit or almost hit by a cart because they arent paying attention. I was walking in the store one day and a guy was putting a motor cart back he literally about drove it right into me and another customer. Seriously if you are going to hirer the people thats great, but make sure they are capable of doing the job without trying to injure your customers. Next time I get hit I might just consider a law suit.

I came here to get some frozen snacks specific food item as quickly as possible. I found what I was looking for in the frozen isle very quickly and moved onto to non GMO snacks. After quickly searching decided to ask somone. My plan was I just check out if I made it to register to ask, as it isnt always easy to find a employee at many stores walk8 around to help. Not 2 minutes after I make my choice I saw a person who was extremely helpful even though he was busy. After that I checked myself out for the speed and was on my way.

Easy parking but have to watch when you exit (vehicles coming from different directions). Friendly Staff and prices O.K.(need to watch fliers) but some items high. Have tendency lately of putting more of their brands on shelves and dont have selection. They should watch Walmart on pricing.

Review №99

Not stocked as good compared to 10 years ago. Now we shop more at MARTINS, larger selection of name brand items. Id say the handwritings on the wall, store closing within a year. The G-Eagles dieing since it became a Corporate Orphan in Altoona, Pa.Nothing like manager-ownership for exuberance of customer service.
