Giant Eagle

This location is very small. I personally never shop at giant eagle but decided to stop In for a few things before work one day. I don’t think they have a whole lot to choose from for a grocery store. Also I don’t know if it’s just the area but it’s pretty outdated. And their prices are ridiculous. For example, they have different sizes of toilet paper for different prices. Like they’ll have half the size of a roll but double the amount of rolls are cheaper than a full roll with less rolls. To me that’s just a way to scam ppl out of their money. I doubt I will be back

I like Giant Eagle as a whole, yes their prices are a bit higher than other grocery stores but in general you can find some really good deals and their deli and bakery are fantastic.
This GE location though I will say I’ll never go into other than if I need to grab 1 or 2 things out of conveinence since I do live literally acorss the street. The times I have tried to do my normal grocery shopping I can’t find half of what I’m looking for and the layout of this store is just awkward. Really the only positives about this location is the wine selection. Go around the corner to Kroger for your groceries though.

Horrible customer service in EVERY department. Starting with the pharmacy, my last encounter with them I needed a prior authorization sent to my doctor. Nothing was ever sent to them and I went without my prescription for 2 weeks longer than I should have. once my dr received it, it was filled three days later. Every time my wife or I interact with the staff, they are extremely short with us and seem miserable. Wrong information is always given. Save a lot of money and bypass this place to Kroger!!!

I pass Giant Eagle on my way to Kroger every time. The layout is confusing and dark and the prices are too high, but the kicker that sent me to Kroger for good is that you either MUST have your rewards card, or a checker has to come scan theirs. You can’t buy anything without it. So frustrating when you just need to buy something quickly and leave. The fuel perks are better at Giant Eagle, but it’s not worth it.

I come here for the liquor store where the selection is good and the staff is friendly. I really can’t afford to shop for groceries here. The fuelperks don’t make up for the higher prices.
Also, getting in and out of the parking lot can be a hassle during peak times.

I love Giant Eagle. It is a big grocery store with good prices and great perks. The fuelperks add up quickly when you buy your groceries here.

The prices are WAY too high. You have to spend SO much money to get anything worthwhile off of your gas purchases. If they let you do more than one fill up (say 2 – 3) with the money off per gallon, that is the only way it would be worth while.
I buy my beer and my fish/​butcher counter items here. I do the rest of my shopping at Kroger.

There are some really great employees at this Giant Eagle location, but the store has a ton of problems. I wouldn’t recommend wasting your time here if you like fresh produce or good selection. I can’t even count the amount of times we’ve had to return produce upon bringing it home and opening it because it was rotting. We’ve also been lied to by employees who have no clue what they’re talking about.
A great example, during a summer holiday the store was out of frozen hash browns. When we asked we were told they didn’t have them because there was a shortage from the company and that no one had them. We drove 5 minutes down the street to Kroger to find their freezer fully stocked. It’s bad enough that the people doing the ordering for this store are so terrible at their jobs, but it certainly doesn’t help when employees flat out lie to customers.
Every time we go to this store they carry less and less of the products that we like/​use. We’ve complained on several occasions and nothing has ever changed. It’s a shame to have such a convenient location with such disappointing products/​services.

Uh Oh. I have to change my review after trying to shop here for a holiday meal in the Latin tradition. I have to say that the Latin american section has a lot of taco bell products and very few actual Latin food items. The store itself is very pleasant and if you are not looking for ethnic groceries, you are likely to find everything on your shopping list. Try to make some tamales and you are out of luck shopping here.
I just took it down by one star for the lack of ethnic items that are useful for real cooking. Note, I wasn’t going to do the cooking myself, but I was in charge of buying the supplies and on a snowy day I wanted to go somewhere close by. In their defense, Kroger (located across the way) did not have any of the items I needed for this project either aside from the pork and the flour…
I guess it is about supply and demand. There probably aren’t that many people in this area seeking ingredients to make homemade tamales from scratch.

Big grocery story that offers perks. You’ll earn fuelperks when you buy groceries to save on gas. Then you also earn perks to save on groceries.
They have large deli section with many pre made items. There’s also a huge walk in beer cave and wine section. The meat and seafood departments are average size. They also have a toiletry section too. If you need New Albany apparel or OSU gear the have a little cove near the registers. Then there’s also a pharmacy.
Be sure to sign up for the free Perks card. You’ll rack up fuel and food points fast. They also have a gift card section, so stock up on gift cards and earn even more fuelperks.

Big store with decent selections. Meat is somewhat pricey and only ok. Good beer selection usually. Above average gluten free selections too.

I greatly prefer Giant Eagle to Kroger for my grocery needs, and the New Albany Giant Eagle is a nice alternative to my regular in Gahanna. Familiar, yet a nice break from the norm.
Built only a few years ago to accomodate New Albany’s recent growth spurts, this Giant Eagle feels a little larger than most, and is definitely cleaner and more modern. I don’t think the selection of food and products is quite up to the Gahanna GE, but it’s still impressive and does occasionally have products other GEs lack. Especially with the bakery, deli, and sushi bars, if I can’t find it in Gahanna, I take a quick trip up the road to New Albany.
Candy aisle not doing it for you? Look around a bit. This place has one non-​grocery perk that keeps me coming back: eye candy. That’s right, from the customers to the cashiers, the New Albany Giant Eagle is a hot bed of hotties. Cosmic rift activity? A secret society? Or are grocery stores the new place for single young professionals to meet and mingle? This one might be! After packing away your groceries at home, be sure to hop on Craigslist to check those missed connections!
