ACME Markets

I’ve given this ACME location more chances than I probably should have, mainly because it’s close to my home and convenient. But after what I’ve experienced repeatedly with outdated products, I can’t keep overlooking the pattern. Today was the final straw. While shopping, we found multiple items that were expired by a month or more. I didn’t even take photos of everything because there were just too many examples. I let the manager know, but instead of concern or urgency, the reaction felt dismissive, and that was disappointing. This isn’t the first time I’ve run into problems here. A few months ago, I purchased a gallon jug of salsa from the Spanish section. Only after opening it at home did I realize it was almost ten years out of date. The salsa was completely black inside and ruined the meal I was cooking. When I mentioned it at the store, the only response I received was laughter and a comment about how “that’s funny.” It didn’t feel funny at all. Another time, I got sick after eating lobster ravioli that I later discovered was five months past its expiration date. That should never happen in a grocery store where customers trust the food to be fresh and safe. I’ve tried to keep shopping here out of convenience, but after today — and after being laughed at rather than taken seriously — I can’t return. Food safety is not a joke, and customers deserve better. As much as I wanted to keep supporting this store, this will be my last visit.

Okay, So the only reason I am giving this store three stars and not two is because their actual brand is pretty good. But this store is ridiculously overpriced. Their sales prices are overpriced. Everything is ridiculously expensive. It is not a store you want to go and shop in. If you don't make eighty thousand dollars a year! But their whole bean coffee is amazing is the only place I go to get my coffee. That is one thing. I can say their brand of coffee is amazing and they have several different options and I can get big bags of whole bean. So I love that otherwise this store is not a store. I shop at unless I have to and that's only because I don't have a car and it's close to where I live!

This store is overpriced ShopRite has cheaper prices on food compared to ACME. The lady with the brown hair and jacket near the exit is very rude and looks like she just woke up and she looks like she hates her job. Also the store is small and there is only one cashier at one register. The management needs to hire more employees to fix this issue. Please advise .

It is not uncommon that food is expired on the shelves. There is zero common sense used when they shop for pickup orders. Produce is often rotten. All of that can be fixed by management and staff. They can't change that everything is ridiculously overpriced, but it is. Pleasant Valley needs a better grocery store. Edit: changed to 1 star because this grocery store is just absolutely terrible
