Reviews of ACME Markets (Fruit Store)

Alexandra Nagy

This place is really sad since A&P closed. I would give it a lower score but the employees make it okay. There is always a wait at checkout and I have waited over 30 minutes just to pay. Not sure why they took out the self service checkout counters. At times, the shelves seem to be empty. However, this place does offer parking.

Diana Nunez

Products are fresh. .great specials. Store is well located. Staff friendly and helpful. Prices are higher than other supermarket in the area except when store has specials. But quality of meats are better

cydnee martin

Short lines. Courteous.

Caoilainn McKee

My favorite grocery store in New Jersey

ayan mukherjee

Good place to visit....should be able to find all delis

Gurbir Singh

Went three times...each time something we bought was expired or had mold on it. Not sure who does quality control here, but they should be fired. Given the low volume of customers I'd avoid this place. Going to just order online.

gschorr34

shopping this location over 25 years...many friends among staff...all helpful ...especially troy, brian, alana, annie, velma, danielle, diptee, james...keep up the good work

Rodrigo Morales

Great service and even better deals!!!!

Alex Kim

Cheaper prices than nearby option (Morton Williams) a little further to walk to, but not as competitively priced as shoprite. Vegetables somewhat fresh and decent selection of items.

Steven Song

We just moved to JC from Manhattan and we're so happy to have found this place. Finally a place where you can find what you want without having to fight through the crowds at prices that are reasonable. The other supermarkets in our area are either way too crowded and disorganized (ShopRite) or way overpriced (Morton Williams).

Felicia Simpson

The Pharmacists are very helpful

Ryan Paxton

Good selection of groceries. everything you need. Best of all, it's nice and quiet!

Jeff Fitzgerald

This store now charges for so-called "reusable" bags (which are reusable maybe once or twice before you have to throw them out anyway). When I was there today, a woman was complaining to the manager who responded "complain to the mayor." If it weren't for stores like this that refuse to use eco-friendly paper bags, Jersey City wouldn't have had to ban plastic bags in the first place. Don't blame others for your own shortcomings.

Jules

Shop here practically everyday. Produce is fresh, employees are helpful and friendly. Good deli selection. Ample parking.

Vincent Vogt

Expensive compared to other stores in area

Derek Dean

I stopped going to that destruction Derby of a super market down the road and started coming here. It's fantastic.

Jonathan Conlin

Really nice and clean supermarket.

Stefan Kunkoski

Nice place to shop. They have some really good deals if you take the time to look.

Stacie B

Disgusting, it seemed like drug deals were going on in the parking lot around me, I felt unsafe. I got inside and it was dirty and dingy and everything seemed old. I would not go back.

manuel cabrero

It's a good place to shop for food what can I tell you

Regina Cappio Wilson

Great store. Helpful staff. Easy to drive or walk to.

Mohammad S Tuhin

Good deal on watermelon

Arvind Anand

Good place to grab stuff on the go

Cez Ramone

Why does it have to be so expensive ?

Shabbir Hussain

Unhelpful and arrogant staff

A N

Nice sushi

Marc Palumbo

Just shy of 5 starts because I feel they are focused on improvements to an underdog in the grocery aisle. Good deals can be found and I do think the meat is a cut above. I'll keep going and watching for the best in house.

Sherif Dwidar US TAXES AND PAYROLL

I love the place

Sarah Harris

HORRIBLE customer care service!!! I called at 7:46 PM on 9/9/17 and the person on the phone I quote said : " you're gonna call me and ask if I sell Synergy and then ask if you can return!" So rudeeeeeeee and extremely unprofessional. WILL NEVER SHOP HERE! You lost my business.

Karmen Douglas

Clean, quiet n they have a large selection of stuff there the majority of people who work there are old people and some of the people who work there needs to shower

Tyler Locke

This store is barely decent and the only reason I return here is to avoid the crowds at Shoprite. However, Shoprite does have much better prices and a much wider selection of groceries, as it's much bigger. My biggest complaint about this Acme location is the complete lack of customer service. The meat and seafood counters are almost never staffed and you inevitably have to complain to customer service who will make an announcement while you wait for an employee to emerge from wherever they were hiding to actually come help a customer. The photos depict an all too familiar scene at this store, empty counters.

Ravichandran S

A full scale shop for all the daily needs at home. Big parking slot right in front of the market is a plus. Been there a couple of times.

Naveen Thattil

Tried to buy a sandwich at the deli - literally 3 employees refused to ring me up - said it was someone else's job. This place is comical.

Malcolm Dsouza

Huge super store to be in buy all that u need

Michael Montayer

Awesome

Diahann De Ruggerio

They don't carry PAN cornmeal. A staple in Latin cooking.

John Harrison

Great produce, meat, and food selection, but they are way too cheap about hiring cashiers. On any given day you'll spend 15 minutes waiting to check-out.

Anthony Cordero

Love the updates

Margarita Santiago

They should open later

Chauncey Scott

Older store but well kept. The only place with normal prices in Newport.

Debi Buzunis

Very clean

Noelle Fair

One of the most infuriating grocery trips I ever had. I will never go here again. The employees are friendly and helpful enough, but for some reason they have decided to rearrange their entire layout!! No one can find ANYTHING and NOTHING is labeled correctly. The employees on the floor I feel the worst for. They are taking the brunt of the customers frustrations. Why would you do this to them? Plus, the produce is outrageously expensive and SOAKED in water. #gross

elnoracrook@gmsil.com Alvinearl5

Great!!!!!!

Sriranjitha Angiras

I can't speak for everyone, but I met with rude staff and thought the things were overpriced. I had to buy an umbrella urgently, and the only ones available were 9$ and totally not worth the money.

J .b

Good selection and prices

Tony Amato

Much cleaner and less cluttered than Shoprite. Slightly more expensive but still has good deals. Their hot bar is way better than Shoprite and the baking department too.

Andrew_ Cooper

Great butcher dept. Awesome help

Dustin Glass

Great food selection but horribly understaffed. No more than 2 or 3 checkout lines open at 6pm.

Andrew Markowitz

Idk what going on here but the whole store has been a giant mess lately.

Candace Scala

Just tried to grab a couple of things and according to the phone message and website, this location is open till midnight. It’s 11:38pm - all the doors are locked and no one is answering the phone.

John Rayside

Food was spiked past it due date and the place was dark no lights on

Mark Johnson

Basic supermarket. Well stocked, clean store, and friendly employees.

Georgiana Alleva-Bobe

Clean, organized, fruit was fresh.

Tatiana Ofri

Fresh oysters, Australian Lamb chops, New Zealands Golden Kiwi, ..... Wonderful, Fantastic, Bellísimo !!!! Like to leave in Jersey City !

Sotirios Gountas

I agree with the other review regarding pricing - overall, the prices are cheaper than the A&P this Acme replaced. That said, I've noticed a proportional decrease in the overall quality and selection of the produce, meats, and other items (though still better than Shop Rite). I would categorize this supermarket as middle of the road in downtown Jersey City. They also need to do something with the checkout lanes. They got rid of the self check out lanes but don't keep enough lanes open especially during peak hours. Like Shop Rite down the street be prepared to wait.

Debasish Rout

Nice

William A

Hard to find assistance

Jason O' Brien

Don't buy any form of meat fish or poultry. Twice now we have had expired food from here. Just buy non perishable foods.

Kiran Aravapalli

Decent, but extremely pricey in my opinion. Everything seems to be 2 dollars more than what you would pay at a shoprite

Terence Peavy

Friendly service and good deals! The expanded hours are great as well!

Tom Solon

Prices are not competative compared to the Shop-Rite the other end of the road. The queues tend to border on the long side here since they have either very slow cashiers, or, not enough. The store is quite empty generally and is rather a nice experience without the crowd. However, that waiting in the queue is very offputting. Empty grocery, but long waits for checkout. Not alluring at all.

fred mtoledo

My favorite place as a supermarket with plenty Parking and a lot of discount.

Greg

Registers are frequently understaffed during busiest hours.

clos B

They open at 7am but there's no personnel at the deli section to do a sandwich. The lady doing inventory will not even make eye contact or acknowledge your presence. I'm sure that's not good business practice.

Yolanelle Label

The worst personal service ever!

Jennifer Rodriguez

No one ever shops here but the shoprite .3 miles away is always packed.

Lashanti Williams

Friendly staff, clean but cold.

Salvatore Marcello

Great market

Jonathan D. Kearney

Pretty standard supermarket. Not quite as mobbed as SuperFresh and slightly better quality.

Lady Figz.

To dam expensive

Alexandre Fernandes

Make sure to ask for Alex the butcher for your favorite cuts of meat

Marcia W

We had high hopes when we heard A&P was being replaced. Unfortunately, it's the same over-priced (sometimes ridiculous) produce and other items, a shortage of cashiers and long lines. You're better off going to Shop-Rite. ACME's days are numbered, hopefully they wake up, or disappear.

craig boyd

Excellent very good service and Pharmacy is very good

Saneisha Mainor

Good place to get groceries

Chandresh Doshi

Worth try

Kimberley Petredis

Check to make sure items are not expired. Better than the A&P it replaced but still not great.

Margaret Alfonso

Successful

Douglas Lindstedt

Customer service is lacking.

Dee Wilkerson

Nice and clean \ Staff great \ prices little steep \ But sales are great

Prudence Choong

I like grocery shop at this place. Neat, clean, much more choices for everything. And good price. Polite and fast service staffs.

Marquita Henderson

Prices are good and the quality of food is fresh. Highly recommend.

Lita Goldsboro

Good prices, fruit platter, fruit, meats and bakery goods.

David Hoj

Eeeehh

Rise2run Group

Amazing people. I was in store few days before and I always buy fruit for my smoothy from ACME but on that day I left my Bag with Blackberry which I paid and today September 1 I went back and I said to the cashier that I left my bag and he gave me 2 box of Blackberry free it was so nice. I recommend this place to everyone.

Julia Lomba

Great selections. I like the 2 for 1 meats. Check out person was polite and cheerful.

Steve Kerr

Great!!! Great!!! Sales!..Friendly Staff!!! Great Service Always!!

Jhonatan Torres

Good products and always with discounts

Lexi Kottner

Clean, good selections, and the people that work there are always helpful when I ask a question. They have a lot of parking, which makes it nice when it's busy.

Sandra Torres

LOVE ACME

Anna Stein

Love their promotions but hate prices on any other occasion. The store is well-organized and clean and the people restocking the aisles are extremely helpful. People working at the register could use more training on customer service, though.

Minh Nguyen

Bought 2 bags of groceries & wouldn’t let us use the restroom because of the tour..?

Nora Lazo

The place is nice and well organized but they are a little expensive, then other supermarkets. One thing I didn't like is that I saw a person with a dog inside the store.

pred1919

Needs better management...

Dee khilall

This Acme has lots of unique items that you may bit normally fine else where. There recycled bag is great for just .10 cents. Its conveniently located in a shopping area with lots of free parking. Definelty somewhere to visit.

Nick Lenzi

This store is managed like they are trying to be closed by corporate in a month. There's no reason this store shouldn't be great. Tons of parking, sizable store, but it functions so poorly. Things are laid out in disarray and is badly labelled. You can deep into the store without even seeing a single employee.

Xin Jiang

Definitely racism store. Don’t allow us to use the restroom because of what? We are Asian?

HB Fraser

This is my new SUPERmarket. Everything is freaking fresh as food should be...

Sumukh Teja Vanamala

This is also a drop off location in Jersey City if you're traveling on a tour bus. And the ACME Markets sell grocery.

Tejas Kumar

Much better than the Shop Rite a few blocks away. Groceries were much cheaper and significantly less crowded

Tamekia Bolden

I like Acme mainly for the fresh seafood. There prices are a little high on some stuff and when they out things on sale be careful with dates because they would put out stock that has been sitting for a while then try to move it so just look at your dates.

Theresa Guerriere

Great food and prices.

Kendra Spencer

Nice supermarket

Tommy Nguyen

Been here twice in 3 years. Prices are higher than the ShopRite in JC, but quality is not better. Some parts of this store seem dimly lit, which is not a good experience. Overall, I avoid going here, especially since there are better options in the area.

William Borrelli

Great store to shop for the necessary stuff you need for everyday needs. The prices are reasonable and as an employee at this store our employees are very friendly and courteous and are willing to help you out if needed.

bunny rabbit

Ok

Chris R.

Prices are too high. Meats are ALWAYS expired or almost expired. Service is not good.

Andre Grear

Best seafood in Jersey city, fast and friendly service

Kevin Hessler

Horrible customer service and place is always a wreck

Tim Bradshaw

Very pricey but has decent selection of items. There are better shopping options in the area. Staff is friendly.

Felicia Palmer

Best organic and fresh fruit offerings in the JC area. They keep the produce section neatly organized and stocked with colorful and fresh fruits and vegetables -- both organic and conventional. I love that they also stock organic cereals (for my 6 and 12 year old) and you can find a good peppering of organic products throughout the store. The store overall is very clean and well managed. I also love their incentive programs -- I'm trading in my 50 bonus stickers for a free Farberware pot. And I just signed up for the gas rewards loyalty program -- what a great way to save money on gas for just purchasing my everyday items. I won't even touch ShopRite -- that place is bananas and needs a complete overhaul. Now I have a good option to get items locally between my weekly trips to Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. Thank God!

Jorge Lara

Buenos descuentos exelente lugar

ted ashton

A gem of a market in a major urban area, WITH LOTS OF FREE PARKING!

Barney Simon

Better prices than the A&P it replaced. Pharmacy department is small, but surprisingly well stocked. Fish department is well maintained and fresh.

Alex Clower

Clean store, decent produce and meat, sizable bakery dept but priced much higher than shop rite

Mariano Vega Jr.

Good grocery store with nice fresh produce

Jay M

Good place to go food shopping.

Christopher Harrison Sr.

Great!

Andy W

More costly than other supermarkets on average.

Rita Soriano

Siobhan Macdona

Friendly staff. Good selection of natural foods, the things I like to buy are priced fairly. Not such a zoo like the place down the street.

Nathan James

I regularly find that fruit I have bought goes bad very quickly, milk sour before expiration, etc. Poor quality. Now will be shopping at ShopRite.

Thomas Johnson

ALWAYS GREAT SERVICE, FRIENDLY STAFF !!

Neil Li

The place is clean and tidy and not crowded but idk why I can't say I like it maybe the location is odd

T. S. Collins

It is a supermarket

Yash Kapani

Good place for grocery shopping, competitive pricing and good quality vegetables

Rick Spilman

Reliable local supermarket. Average pricing. Decent selection.

Darnell Tucker

I always get follows around by creepy security. Total turn off feeling guilty just for shopping. I don't like this place for that fact

Ru-Ern Chee

Clean supermarket with decent prices and a large selection of items. Produce is fresh but prices are only average. Meat and seafood are cheap, but quality is discernibly poorer than alternatives (freshdirect, Trader Joe’s) so you kind of get what you pay for. Lots and lots and lots of processed food.....

Deva Nixie

Love this supermarket!

Chris Cousins

The worst. Cosmetic upgrades doesn't change anything. Update: I tried to give this place another chance after they closed their doors an hour early before closing time without informing anyone or having a sign up but I'm done officially. Last week I try to get a money order that came up with some new rule after I've been getting money orders from there for 5 years. With the same card, might I add. I went to Acme locations in Edgewater Commons and other areas of New Jersey and didn't experience an issue at all. I go back this week to the same location and after waiting for 10 minutes was informed that the machine doesn't work by the same person who came up with some lame story about certain cards not being accepted. Worst service ever.

Andrianna Perez

People are great here

Justine Vakani

Best grocery store in the area. So much nicer and cleaner than shop rite!

D. Maria Conde

Better than Shoprite.

Jennifer R.

My favorite supermarket. Has a great variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, and prepared foods. I like that they have vegan and vegetarian options like Beyobd Meat, Lightlife, and Daiya! Great manufacturer coupon policy!

Garrett Dripchak

Clean, never too crowded. Prices aren't the best in the area, however.

Bunny Lawrence

Ok

Scott Hansen

Great place and not very crowded. Keep an eye on your receipt to make sure the item rings up for the right price.
