Stop and Shop

This is my favorite Stop & Shop location in the area. The layout of the store is less crowded. Produce section is meticulously organized and clean but still keep an eye out for banged up veggies. There is a butcher counter with fresher cuts of meat than in the case (which I have never seen at any of the S&S’s). Two aisles of natural/​organic products for your splurging pleasure. Checkout lines move quick. Customer service is great except for at the seafood counter where are bothered every time I ask for a lobster.

The produce at this location is leagues better than the Stop and Shop on W River St. Our go-​to place for everything that we need. Well stocked throughout most of the week. Store was clean, check out is always quick and easy with friendly service. A bit more chaotic during the weekends, but even then, it’s still a pleasant experience. Large selection of organic and natural foods, produce, frozen items, pet food, seasonal items, you name it… I haven’t had trouble finding what I need here.

I like this location of S&S. Somehow it just seems cleaner, more organized, and appears to have a better selection of items than the other ones I’ve been to in the area. I typically only shop here when I’m in the area (usually going to Target, Lowes, and other necessary evils that force me to go to chains). It has a large parking lot that it shares with Home Depot. I would opt to go here over Providence and E. Providence if getting to Seekonk were easier. They tend to have certain organic and natural foods that I can’t find at the other locations. Staff is friendly and seem to be more efficient than some of the other stores, as well.

I try to avoid going to S & S. They are overpriced and I hate the fact they always have some group or person at the doors asking for money. Since there are no good fish markets around here I had to go to S&S to get fish. What happened to service with a smile? Why is the younger guy that runs the fish dept always miserable? Not a friendly experience at all. He always gives the impression that you are disturbing him. I’ll go to Castigliego’s in Somerset. I’ll also pay more $ for groceries at Whole Foods. At least they acknowledge you at the check out. These younger cashiers would rather talk to themselves.

They always have discounts which means I’m a BIG fan. I don’t really like the set up so much but its a quality store with pretty good prices

This S&S is as good as they get. Parking is easy, the store has wide and well-​lit aisles, the employees are pleasant, they have a nice produce section, there’s a Dunkin’ Donuts if you want a coffee, and… and…it’s just a supermarket but I like this one above all others in the area. There’s also a Home Depot next door in the event you need to pick up some 2×4’s or driveway tar.

Typical Stop & Shop. A bit better than your usual supermarkets but not exactly your Trader Joes, Whole Foods, or Wegmans.
Found what I wanted to make breakfast and salads in the hotel room. They dont have much of a selection for Artisan Breads. Had to resort to getting one with chemical vitamins. Also, the ‘healthy’ salads all have xantham gum as thickener agent. Had to resort to making my own balsamic with flax seed oil.
Its also important to note, no beer sales here. If I remember correctly, its MA and RI law or something.
Found most of the workers to be nice and conversational. They assisted me in finding plastic knife/​fork in the deli area and helped to key in a store card. They tried to convince me to remember to bring my card to get discounts on gas, but we dont have that in NJ.

I have been going to this Stop and Shop since I was a kid. Could there be bias in this review due to these circumstances? Perhaps, perhaps not. As I said, I have been coming to this location for a number of years… I used to know the place inside and out, compiling my coupons in order of aisle number to easily check out the deals. Such is not the case since their recent renovation but I’m sure I’ll get things down again.
This large supermarket boasts a number of services within its walls. A Dunkin Donuts (with convenient cup holders on the carriages), Citizen’s Bank, and In-​Store Pharmacy can all be found within steps of the entrances. Wide aisles direct cart-​wielding customers through section upon section of fresh produce, deli items, baked delicacies, seafood and meat shelves, extensive refrigerated/​frozen foods, canned and boxed goods, floral arrangements, natural food selections, pet needs, bath and beauty products, and so much more. A Coin-​Star machine and can/​bottle redemption turns loose change and empty beverages into manageable funds at the register. A RedBox turns simple dinner planning into date nights.
I have never been disappointed by the quality or selection of food I come home with. Employees have always been helpful in locating certain harder to find items I need for recipes I pulled offline last minute. Sales and opportunities to rack up gas points play a prevalent role during my time in-​store and help keep my wallet full after checking out. Portable scanners are available to make cashing out a speedy process and help keep track of my spending throughout the trip.
Beside the awkward layout of the store during their renovations, I really can’t think of anything that I don’t like about this location. Even the bathrooms are clean and delightfully decorated (an almost rustic, European stonework theme going on). Issues with incorrect pricing are quickly dealt with at the customer service desk… I could go on and on. I highly recommend this Stop and Shop location.

I don’t think I’ve ever been this excited walking into a grocery store. A Dunkin Donuts in the store? Super psyched, I ordered my coffee and began perusing the aisles.
The store is huge. The aisles are very wide and you don’t have to do the «you go» «oh no you go» routine as you try to move your cart down the aisle. The produce section is large with a good selection. The meat aisle had a lot of variety as well.
The store had a lot of cashiers as well as self-​checkout lines. We found everything we were looking for quickly and were in and out in a few minutes.
In addition, the bathroom was well done and was very clean for a supermarket bathroom.
All in all, a great shopping experience!

While I would prefer to shop at Whole Foods or East Side Market they are both just a bit too expensive for my everyday grocery needs. Though the East Providence S&S is much closer to my house, I make a point to drive a little farther to this one. The produce is always a lot fresher, healthier looking and abundant than it’s EP counterpart. This is important to me since the majority of my groceries are from the produce section. The store overall is clean. Since they just redid it a bit a lot of the isles are very roomy now so you can move your cart around others without crashing into them. Parking is always easy as pie.

I’ll go to S&S over Whole Foods for two reasons: the tissue selection and the international foods isle. Sadly, this market is severely lacking in both!
While the S&S on Branch Ave in PVD is great, this one in Seekonk is a little small-​ish and sadly skimpy with the exotic foods I so dearly crave. It also felt cramped and ill-​lit, so while I did get some of the things I was looking for (laundry detergent, and ok a FEW boxes of tissue), it wasn’t an entirely pleasant experience.
I was also underwhelmed by their meats selection, and wouldn’t go near the seafood counter. Parking was a breeze and I should tell you that the store itself was very clean.

Went to the store on Wednesday mid afternoon around 5 ish — that is when they get all of their fresh produce. I was so stoked! I actually got to select the broccoli I wanted instead of just taking the last few crowns left.
Just a tip!
