ShopRite of Elizabeth

Excellent store for all your needs. Fresh food and produce.This store caters strictly to people who love to find all kinds of bargains. The service is friendly at the seafood counter especially.

There's something wrong with the store. Besides the rotted fruits and vegetables I frequently wound up with there is something wrong with the culture at this shop rite. The last thing that has occurred to me there is the action of an employee I complained ed about. She was in the bakery section with vinyl gloves on scratching her head, neck, wiping her nose, scratching her neck and coughing into her hand. All this with vinyl gloves on which she made no attempt to discard while she waited to serve another customer. I was so disgusted, I went to customer service and asked to speak with a supervisor to recount what I had witnessed. To make a long story short, when I went back to pick up the cake I had ordered and paid for, the invoice nor the cake could be found. It became quite obvious to me that the employee discarded the invoice to my cake order therefore, no cake. She should be terminated. That is the low of the lowest. Nasty store!!

The guys that work the order pick up are always on point. I do doordash and they always get the items out before my pick up time. Young tan lady with long dark hair directs me to wherever I need to go (I wish I knew her name, she has been employed for some time) and the man that hustles and shows humility, Mr. Angel!!!. We need young men like that to shape our futures. Thank you!

I ordered a cake with lemon filling and paid extra for the lemon. The cake was supposed to be all white but when we picked it up it had pink roses on it. Then they took off the pink roses and couldn’t add white roses so they added extra piping. The white icing did not match the color of the cake. Then there was no lemon filling! Over charged!!

Earlier today, this shop rite threw out $45 from me. I had paid with 2 gift cards. And the rest on my debit card. Order confirmed. Everything set. Now time to pick up. At pickup they say the payment didn't go through. Now they tell me? On the phone for over an hour they said I would have to come in to pay. My original order was canceled. So I told them I need the gift card numbers back since I threw out the cards. They said they won't do anything for me after causing this inconvenience. They said go grab it from the trash. It may be in the bin outside, but I'm not going to dig in the trash and turns out it's not there. So they essentially lost me $45. I know it's the holiday season and busy, but this was no fault of mine. If I had entered the numbers wrong, or had any part in causing this mess, I would just take this as a loss. But I will not be walked on like a doormat. Debating if returning to any shop rite.

The worst shop & stop ever. The manager is disguest and customer service is the worst. The products are outdated. I am not recommending this supermarket . The manager does not understand customer service.

I was being rushed and the cashier began checking me out without my phone # and didn’t ask me to enter it whilst I paid for my order…. I came back to the store that evening to get my discounts and was told I had to bring the whole $434 order back to the store to ring it up again to get the discounts…very upsetting! I would’ve left all the items right there had I brought them back to the store so I’m letting You know and asking for You to fix it!

Shop rite on elizabeth still has issue with shopping carts being everywhere on parking lot spaces and most of them don't work, there is a review from a girl name adriana a year ago and still having the same issue not sure way this shop rite doesnt do as the shop rite on linden to eliminate the issue with the shopping carts, also the are for pick up is always full with parked cars not picking up groceries but inside the building, this shop rite on elizabeth has a lot to learn from the shop rite on linden

Huge ShopRite and feel like they always have everything I want in stock! Great location in Elizabeth and always have a great selection!

I went in there around noon on Saturday and put in an order for cold cuts at the automated kiosk by the deli counter. An hour and a half later it still wasn't ready. I went home, made some banana bread, then drove back to the store. Around 3:30 I managed to talk a guy behind the counter into filling my order. At 6:30 pm the following Tuesday I got an alert informing me that my deli order was ready. I've been told Seabra provides decent deli service. This place sucks.

Such a joke at 240pm in the afternoon on a Tuesday they have 2 registers open lines down the aisles & 3 open for self check out. Guess they are all hanging out in the break room.

Looks like they finally finished the remodel, looking fancy Shoprite. Great selection of items and produce! Gotta love those sales. Employees were helpful when I inquired if all the hummus they had was in one section- indeed they are right by the deli. Why don't they have the back to nature thin mint cookies tho?

Just finished restocking the household groceries. Everything seemed to be in stock that was on my list and you could see the grocers were constantly restocking the isles. Most of the isles are neat and easy to find exactly what you are looking for. The cashier Karen at the checkout was very nice, she even helped us bag up the groceries which you don't see them do much anymore since most stores have stopped using plastic bags. It's mostly nice and neat inside the store usually. This is my main go to for shopping for my food.

This is disgusting! Do they ever clean these ??? I go here (eliz nj shoprite) often..But now only for dire emergency ! I hope this helps corporates to get some employees to help clean instead of chitchatting,,,

Helpful and friendly staff not to mention quality food ... and lots of choices on grocery items and organized

Shoprite of Elizabeth for the win! I have been looking for distilled water all over the place, so I decided to call around for it. I got in touch with someone at this location and they said they had it! Yayyyyy! I ran right over and was able to grab the limit of 2 gallons. They had a system for the checkout line so people can be apart. I went to the express line and was out right away. But low and behold I dropped one of the gallons and it bursts all over ‍! The security was so nice about it and got someone right over to clean it and told me go get abother one. Good shoping experience today!

Why does this deli Dept give you the ends of cold cuts. Especially the ones that are pre cut and go. I used to work for a grocery store and these beds were left for shoppers who wanted to feed their pets. Maybe a call to the health department will change things

I don't like the way the store looks anymore. It's starting to look like whole food and they're even charging prices like whole food. They shrink down the stakes for example and more they're so small and for the same price as before they did the you look to the store so they're making about 300% profit out of this and we're getting less. Then they took out Purdue chicken and they using this disgusting brand bowle and baskets it takes so horrible and they charge the same price as Perdue so you're not saving no money. I don't know how they stay open

Best shoprite ever very nice they are super clean and i mean it's like a family place they don't follow u the security guard is the most sweetest man in the world he a little older but he is the most sweetest man understanding the manger is the bomb they help u the workers are polite it's really like ur family who runner this establishment got great skills I spend Bout 500 or better everytime I come here I Mean it's comfortable they are very nice they can care less bout u running ur Mouth they there to do a job it's the late night shift I always go late but let me tell u this is the nicest shop rite ever and on top of it they feel Like home the other shoprites need to Learn bout paying customers go here I promise u want regret it the late night shift is the most sweetest

24 hours shoprite with Security guards patrolling the parking lot and a guy inside near the entrance. I wasn't scared coming here at 2am even though its in Elizabeth, NJ. It's pretty organized and well stocked for being in the ghetto. I expected the aisles to look like Walmart.

So I was in town for an emergency visit. Elizabeth has changed over the years and many of our fav restaurants have sold out and more mediocre restaurants have moved in overall. So we went shopping at Shop Rite. What a disorganized layout to a grocery store! Lol, I had to ask employees almost where everything was. Anyway they had a great collection of all kinds of clams. The prices were reasonable with a Shop Rite card. We eventually got almost everything we needed. Some employees were spot on where the item we wanted were and some not at all. Overall it was an extra lengthy shopping trip because of the disorganized pattern of the store. The store and parking lot seemed safe enough but who wants to mug you in a raining double storm? Yelp Review #333

Talk about chaos! This place is always super crowded. Good luck finding a parking spot close at p the entrance. I have come here every day of the week literally and I find that Tuesday's and Wednesday are the least busiest but it still makes it hard to navigate through the store with your cart. The options of products are very limited when we talk about organic or natural. They are very expensive if you ask me compare to real organic whole foods. The entrance of the store is always overstocked with "items on sale", but it's no surprise it's all junk food from wings to chips and soda! The only reason I come here in is the distance, is very close to my house but if I had a whole foods next to me this place would be for ever forgotten. One last note, don't ever use the customer service desk unless you really have to. I tried getting a rain check for organic almond milk and I was literally there waiting for the lady to confirm there wasn't any and to then get an ok from her manager 20! Mins. The only reason I waited was because it was a good sale!

Horrible service all around. If you want to walk into a night club make sure you stop here while they restock. Every isle has its own music blasting, cardboard boxes Scattered throughout the store. The cashiers are less to be desired for. Long lines down the isles and no organization whatsoever.

SWEET!! I'll gladly be the FTR Shoprite in Elmora! Let's just talk about the size of this super super market! It is gargantuan. By far the biggest in my area. They have double aisles. Meaning that once you go up the first section of aisles, there are more to come. They not only have a sick ass deli counter and seafood department, but guess what else??? They dub these stations in Kosher. I love Kosher prepped foods. Yes, guilty. I am not Jewish in any way but indulge often in Kosher foods-sue me. The sale items are endless, literally. I mean if I want to get things at a bargain than G-wiz I walk my butt to Shoprite. A trip to Shoprite almost always warrants my black Mercedes walk-n-shop cart. I like to keep it simple and easy. And since I don't work right now my daily runs to the tons of stores I visit give me something to do and yelp about. But there are times that I need to buy a ton of stuff. I love to have people over!! (Hint-hint, let's hang out). I mean I get a real joy from hostessing and cooking for my family and friends. These times call for Shoprite. I know that I can score family packs of pork chops with a price that will shock the crap out of your wallet. If I need the butcher to cute me a 10 lb piece of filet mignon for my grill than I come here. Need a 12 pack of paper towels for like $5 no problem, just come here. I also look forward to the seafood specials. My son and I absolutely love seafood. However, when your 9 year old casually asks for Chilean Sea Bass for dinner than you gots to learn how to bargain hunt! Shoprite occasionally offers this fish for about $17-18 a lb. That's cheap y'all! Downside to this place is that no matter what time I seem to go and as you can see I am an early bird, the place is mobbed! Talking about exceeding the max cap by at least triple. There are so many employees in this one place and every one of them is needed. Sometimes I feel like the entire city is there. People running into you w/ their carts. Arguing at the check out lines(NO they don't offer self service). Annoying other peoples children running a muck. SMH. But you gotta take the good with the bad I guess. I try to avoid chainy grocery stores at all costs. But there are benefits, especially when you come here.

Kathleen, presuming the pharmacist, is a rock star!!! I am grateful beyond measure for the time she took to help me regarding my elderly father's second vaccine appt which we were waiting to hear about just two days before. My dad was getting anxious because I kept calling the established shoprite vaccine hotline and kept getting cut off after being on hold. Now he is calmly looking forward to getting a call and or text the day before with the specific appt time. Thank you Kathleen for being a shining star!! God Bless all the pharmacy staff!!

Pro- offers many Spanish options, lots of parking. Con- always super busy, some thing are not kept fresh and staff lacks customer service.

Nothing says customer service at a 24-hour ShopRite like the employees showing there customer service skills I blasting music from there portable speakers and blocking the aisle. And then to add salt to the wound they see you trying to get through and just stare at you and not move any of the carts out of your way. I gave it to stars is due to the fact it's open 24 hours...

The deli is the most poorly run deli I have ever seen.the deli clerks stand around and gossip about the customers they dont wanna wait on. The customers all dislike the clerks also. Pam is the most volitile and disrestful one of all and Wayne follows suit. In all my years of retail ive never seen such unprofessional service. .

After a bad experience 3 days ago with their Shop from home, I gave this store another try and it was another monumental fail. I had a 930-10 am pickup slot, arriving at 945 and finding 3 other cars waiting. Unfortunately no one got their orders, at all. The car next to me arrived 925, at 10 15 I went to the man who took care of carts, asking him to go in and say people here are waiting, he didn't want to, I went to front of store, banged on the glass so cashiers saw me, throwing my hands in the air , motioning for help, nothing. Suppose there had been a body lying there. If I wanted to go in the store myself, I wouldn't be picking up an order. I made 3 calls to customer service, no one picked up. At 1030 I once again begged the cart man to tell them there are now 8 cars waiting for orders, since the new time slot people are there. He finally did. After 1 hr. out came my order, no apologies, no explanation, I hope corporate sees my reviews and contacts me. I already gave an online review and never was contacted. After 35 years shopping here , never again.

Good grocery store where you can get mostly anything you want, decently priced. However, I don't usually shop produce there. Not because of bad quality (very fresh) but because you can get the same for cheaper at Giant Farm on Elizabeth Ave. Also, they just announced they are now open 24 HOURS! Woohoo!

Elizabeth, NJ This was a close by supermarket when I lived up here but still needed to drive. Being opened 24 hours is pretty awesome. Good prices.

I placed an order for delivery and the next day at 10am it was ready and at my door! I really appreciated it especially with everything going on and the fact I'm a single mother with two kids! Saved me a lot of time and I didn't have to take my kids out on a crazy trip to the supermarket! I'm giving 4 stars because I did not like the fact my doordash driver who delivered did not have a mask on..... hope this helps!

Not my favorite ShopRite due to the long aisles, just not a fan of the layout. However, if you just need a few things it's fine and is convenient being open 24/7.

I've been to dozens of ShopRites and this one is by far the worst, but I think this is actually by design. Come to this ShopRite if you like to wait in lines that just never move. Come to this ShopRite if you are a fan of surly service or if selection is not at all important. My guess is they use actually use this store as training so the managers of other ShopRites can see what not to do.

Ordered a cake from their bakery department...didn't want flowers because it was for a man, so the person in the bakery department suggested balloons. Just picked up the cake and it looks like it was put together as a joke...balloons are just globs of colored frosting with lines scribbled down from them. 8" cake, $20 and I'm embarrassed to bring it to the part.

I just can't give it 5 stars because they one on RT 22 has such an impressive 'fresh area' of hot and cold foods. But this place is improving. -- Look. there are some low reviews here. I'll throw out some great advice --- If you go shopping on a weekend or first of the month... Well, be prepared for absolute chaos. I would try to avoid ANY shopping experience on a weekend. They have improved their Organic section. Adding much fruit, beef and chicken. - The employees are all very friendly. In all my years going here, I have yet to find a rude worker. Now you might find some chuckle-head customers, but hey, it's E-Town. Plenty of ethnic food for Portuguese, Mexican, Jewish flavors. I never used the Pharmacy. - I saw a review from a guy who lives in Paterson saying Elizabeth is the ghetto.. Now that is what I call FUNNY!

Omg this is the worst shop rite ever! I grew up in Elizabeth and didn't find out what a good shop rite was like until I moved! The way they break up the aisles makes everything so hard to find. I usually stop by on my lunch break and have to squeeze through the lunch rush just to shop! This is the place I go to only if I have an emergency and I'll only buy packaged goods! I stopped buying they're "fresh" products after I overheard a customer complaining about a deli employee cutting meats and sneezing and wiping his nose....BARF!

This place is TERRIBLY CROWDED! The aisles are small, the floors are (somehow) uneven, and everything just feels cramped. And THEN there are too many people on top of that! I'm not one for crowds, but I get anxious when it's crowded and a small space (in this case, small aisles). I couldn't get out of here fast enough. Also, the first thing I noticed when I got in was the very odd set-up in the front. Instead of having an open lobby, you have to walk down an aisle between chest freezers and, if anybody stops to look at what's in them, they're blocking almost the entire aisle, which is the only way to get into the store. You feel like you're in a herd of cattle being let to who-knows-where... I usually go to the Stop & Shop in Elizabeth (MUCH nicer than SR!) but if I'm ever in need of groceries on that side of town again, I'll try the Pathmark down the street.

The worst shoprite ever, always crowded, never any parking and never any carts cause they are all over parking lot. Wouldn't come here again even if they were giving food away for free.

I always used to shop here. My parents shop here and so did my fiance and I. Until today!! My fiance is Pregnant and we use WIC services. We have shopped here for WIC products before, we for our usual stuff and went to check out. The rude cashier named David told us that they don't sell that anymore and to get out of the line and we explained that we always shop here. He couldn't Care less. We asked to see the manager. The manager came over and whispered something in his ear. Then told us in Spanish that they took those products off WIC on Sunday. So I said "wait but the WIC signs are still under these products " she said "Yeah the night guy that does it didn't do his job " ohh like it was our problem that shoprite employees are irresponsible. We were beyond uspet. I wanted to just leave and get out. We left and never coming back. We will tell everyone there to stay away from this shoprite. It is full of irresponsible workers.

I don't like this Shop Rite. It is crowded and the parking lot situation isn't cool. I only go here if I need something small. I kike the other Shop Rites much better.

horrible customer service from daisy && maryann over in yhe customer service department! when i say i hate coming to this shoprite i would rather drive to linden and be treated with some kindness instead of driving down the street to use my money! horrible customer service from those two ladies especially the one woth the long black hair!! let's do better shoprite

First grocery shopping experience in my neighborhood was here & it was bad. I understand that crowds aren't within the stores control but yeah. Too crowded. Also, it was the most unorganized grocery store I have ever been to. Nothing is ordered properly & good luck figuring it out!

By far the best market in the area for quality and price. Great customer service and everyone is very helpful. Not a high end store but a pretty good selection of products and rarely do I not find what I need, Also it is open 24/7. It is crowded but not their fault they are popular. But seem to have enough cashiers on hand. They even have a Kosher section which is good for Jews and Muslims.

they have a lot of kosher stuf more then other shop rite in the area .you can get almost evry tthing you need they have meet and fish and dairy stuf they good
