Giant Eagle

Poor selection and high prices means we only come here for occasional items. What is the worst, though is the bakery. That crappy Bettercream that they pass off as buttercream frosting on their cakes will make you puke. The stuff comes in a 5 gallon bucket in chocolate or white. It is scooped out of the bucket and whipped to make it fluffy. It is ALL chemicals and oils. There is no butter or cream or anything resembling real food in their «buttercream» icing. AVOID.
It also needs to be said, this Giant Eagle is a poor neighbor in Berea. Situated next to the Metroparks, the entrance to the park next to their store is constantly littered with bags, bottles, cans and wrappers. They should be better stewards of the location they have been given. It is shameful, appalling and embarrassing how they neglect the adjacent park to which their parking lot abuts!
The people who work here are friendly and attentive. Lines usually move quickly, but then I’m usually using the 10 items or less line, and the butcher in the meat department rocks! You can get anything you need, cut, trimmed and dressed the way you want it and never be treated like a nuisance for asking.

I live in Middleburg Heights, but the Berea Giant Eagle is on my way home so I usually just stop at this one.
Pretty normal grocery store. It is smaller than some of the other Giant Eagles I’ve been in so they don’t have quite as big a selection. This one is WAY better than the Strongsville store though.

This place is really sad when it comes to check outs. Tried to get some quick things and it took forever in line. Never again

I’m starting to wish there were other grocery stores closer by that I could go to. Yesterday I bought a dinner for my daughter that was truly inedible. Nothing ever seems fresh there to me, though that’s what they claim. Bought a cinnamon coffee cake that was not good either. Am going back with the food and receipt to get my money back. This is the second time this has happened. Not a happy camper.
And enough talking to the customers, cashiers! Being friendly is one thing, sharing your life story is another. Especially when your lines are usually long.

Easily the worst Giant Eagle in the Dirt Bird chain. There is never a quick in-​and-​out trip to this store. Quality is usually pretty low, but it is the employees that make this place just awful. The check-​out lines are the real killer, but the employees and cleanliness of the store aren’t much better.

Giant Eagle, why do you suck in my neighborhood? There are never enough cashiers and the ones you do have move at the lightning fast speed of molasses! Last week it took me 10 minutes to purchase a bottle of orange juice. OY!
The people who work here are mostly friendly (I cannot fault you for that. thank you for having nice employees), I just find you lack overall greatness. And sometimes, honestly, I just want you to check me out not have a crazy long and involved conversation with every person in your line.
The produce selection here is ok, but overpriced. The seafood selection almost always is less than desirable. Please Giant Eagle Corporate peoples, fancy my Big Bird up a bit. We’re in need.
