Giant Food

This giant is great! The staff members are very friendly and they always ready to help you. Sometimes I love the clearance sections and the low prices ! I love to shop in giant!

I really like this Giant. People working in here are very helpful and friendly.
This is one of the cleanest Giant I ever seen, very well orginize with good deli selections.
Whenever Im in this area Im shoping in here!

What’s the masculine for mistress? Whatever it is, that’s what this Giant is to me. I think I’m in love.
I know that sounds silly, to be in love with a grocery store. But this Giant really is fantastic. From the huge produce section, vast selection of everything, microbrews in the beer section, Wawa-​style deli ordering screens, and great big section of hair/​beauty/​medicine/​etc stuff, I enjoy grocery shopping here. Every time I’ve been in there the staff has been friendly and helpful, which is more than I could say for the little crappy stores I had to deal with in Old Town. But the best part (and I know they have these at other Giants too, but its icing on the cake) is the Scan It thing they’ve got going on. Basically, as long as you have a Giant card, you can get a little scanner and scan and bag your groceries as you go, saving you from being that guy at the register that takes forever. And they work at the self check out, so all you have to do when you check out is close out your little scanner, scan your coupons, pay, and be on your merry way. No more frustration with the way the cashier is packing your reusable bags, no more waiting to fit all of your stuff on the conveyer belt, you get to do it all yourself. Love it.
The only negative — no cart spaces in the parking lot. Since people are lazy, you run the risk of one of those lazy people leaving their cart in the parking space and it possibly hitting your car. Even when you’re three spaces from the entrance. But other than that, this Giant is a complete win.

This is a large, clean and newer Giant with good produce. It is a little weak in the meat department and there is no butcher from whom to make requests. The lines at the checkout aren’t usually too bad and the employees usually know where to find things.
This Giant is the best grocery store in the area because its competition is the super down at the heels Safeway in Rose Hill and the grungy Shoppers down the street is… well, grungy.
But the thing that makes this Giant my go-​to grocery store is the fact that they are participating in Giant’s SCAN IT program. When you enter the store, you pick up a scanner and you scan your own groceries as you go. It’s a great way to keep track of how much you’re spending and, if you bring your own bags, you can even bag your groceries as you go. It’s a huge time saver and you can still use self check out. It sounds silly and like a small thing, but it makes grocery shopping so much easier and more enjoyable.
Avoid the Starbucks, though. Prices are insanely inflated and there’s a real Starbucks two doors down.

It’s a Giant Food and it’s the super ridiculous sized one at Kingstowne.
The only reason I like it? It has an excellent gluten-​free section that is more convenient than running out to Whole Foods.

It’s 5 mins away from us. It’s clean and they have good a great variety of food. The seafood is always fresh and the service is great.
Tips: Don’t buy starbucks from inside the market. It’s just not the same.

We moved up from Florida just last week, and I have been on a quest to find a grocery store that resemebles my beloved Southern staple, Publix — basically, a place with great variety, friendly service and good prices… and I think I found it!
Sure, some items can be found at lower prices elsewhere (my husband and I noted the high price of Silk soymilk, for one) but it’s almost worth it when no one is running you down in the aisles or you are having to wait 10 – 15 minutes in line for a cashier. The self-​check-​out is fun and I like seeing my savings (both same day, and year-​in-​review) printed right on the receipt.
One of the crown gems that we’ve also discovered is the «we baked too much» section in which you can purchase baked items such as cakes, breads, muffins and even pies and cookies for significant savings of 50 cents, $ 1 or even $ 2 off! I bought a four pack of muffins and froze them until we were ready to eat them and they were super fresh and yummy.

My favorite of all of the local Giants! They have a Starbucks inside the store, which is usually a first stop for me when starting grocery shopping (and their shopping carts have a cup holder, which makes things very easy!)
They have excellent product selection, wide aisles, and seem to manage NOT to be stocking when you are trying to shop.
I like to use the self-​checkout and there is a wonderful woman who helps with the bagging and any other items that may arise. She is always so pleasant and helpful that it makes it more likely that I would use this Giant than any other.
My only pet peeve is that they don’t have the little «cart houses» where you can put your cart in the parking lot. This may be something the landlord won’t allow them to do. So, you need to take your cart back up to the front of the store.

Excellent store and one of the best chains in the region.

This is where I cut my teeth as an overnight grocer. Seeing as how this Giant was considered at the time huge, it has everything you need. Always something on sale. Great variety and selection. I loved the mixture of older and younger staff to even the environment out. Fresh and clean displays.

Cheapcheap wine! My friend introduced me to Kendall-​Jackson Chardonnay, borderline sweet for my taste, but still good. While most places range from $ 12 – 14 for this wine, Giant has it on sale for $ 9.99! Yay!
This store is very clean and spacious. There are a lot of self-​checkout lanes and they also have some handy devices where you can scan the items in as you go and then pay when you get to the front!

Well, it’s time to review my grocery store. It’s a very good neighborhood Giant and it’s much, much nicer than other Giant’s in the area. The store is well planned and offers a very wide variety of products.
When you walk in there is a Starbucks on your left — the stores buggies even have a cup holder so you can enjoy your latte while shopping.
The produce section is kept up very well as is the meats. They don’t have a fabulous selection like a Harris Teeter or a Whole Foods, but what they have is great. Good bakery and a nice «health» section with all the shampoos, body wash and toothpaste that you would need. This Giant has an organic aisle too, which is the trend I guess.
This Giant always seems to have everything well stocked and great staff. I would prefer this to the Safeway and Shopper’s in the area that seem to be too expensive and gross (respectively).
