GREAT PRICE ON CREAM CHEESE! Stores are stores. Each have their pros and cons. Focusing on the pros, hey!... This store has cream cheese cheaper than the dollar store next door! Aldi had it for $1.49 Vs $3.00 compared to the Dollar Tree. Clean cool building (cleaner than what I notice from other stores) with great products. Fast and friendly clerk encountered at register. I should come here more often! read more

I was at Winco yesterday their avocado was $1.29 each. I didn't purchase any. waited the next day after work to stop by Aldi's right off the 15 freeway. Aldi's their avocados was $.59 each , bought 30 avocados for about a little bit over $17, bought two jars of tiki masala to make dinner tonight . some chips for kids snacks also pre-made pizzas at seven dollars read more

Prices are the best for produce! Their chicken is Tyson and organic beef is always good. There's only a few checkers but that's how they can price their groceries low. read more

The checkers are always nice and work hard to get customers out as quickly as possible.

Went here to return some yogurt that was bad for the twice as nice guarantee policy and was met with rudeness and a really bad attitude not from the cashier, although it seemed that she was not familiar with the store policy, but from the other female employee there. They did not want to honor the store's policy. They wanted me to pay for the items still. They also said that they needed a receipt. We did not have a physical one seeing as we did not know that the yogurts would be bad, but we did have a picture of the receipt from Saturday night. I have never been treated like this at any other Aldi in years. We have shopped at Aldi every single week for as long as I can remember and have never been treated like that. On top of all of this, this store has been the worst when it comes to cleanliness, it is extremely unkept and food is left out. The worst though would be the attitude of the employee with whom I dealt with. The items were bought on 4/25 around 8pm and we returned them on 4/27 around 8pm. We will never go back to this store location ever again. It is absolutely disgusting and the treatment we received was completely unacceptable and uncalled for. Would be no stars or negative stars if possible. Do not go here. Go instead to another Aldi as there are a few others around that are really nice and the employees are nice. read more

When everything in our economy has increased in price, it's still nice to know Aldi's has some of the lowest prices available. They won't always carry what you're looking for but for everyday essentials you can guarantee that you'll find what you need here. Some produce is always a great deal here. When I'm visiting a friend and short in time I like to grab chocolates and a beverage here to bring to their house. It's always a hit. I'm looking forward to this year's advent calendars. Aldi's always carry the best variety! read more

I made a quick stop before heading out of California as we don't have the stores with us. They were out of a lot of the chocolate I like to buy there like white chocolate and milk bars. However they had the assortment boxes luckily Check out was fast Not many carts available read more

ALDI - Grocery Near Me - Fontana, California

Aldi near me! I walk here as I am just across the street. Super convenient! Aldi has amazing prices. Aldi does not necessarily have a huge variety of items, yet this is what makes it unique and more manageable. Too much displayed is way more overwhelming I think. Have a quarter for your cart, bring your own bags, bag your own items, and or wait your turn to check out from one of two registers; is worth the prices that are offered! Having to use a quarter for your cart is going to knock off additional employees for all day to have to bus those carts! Not a big deal for me again minimizing where they can is worth the prices they offer! I see some people get frustrated with these Aldi employees over only one register being open or just two being open; again the less employees on site the more affordable our groceries can be! Keep in mind these Aldi employees are not the CEOs of the company so lighten up on them. They always are very pleasant even while being yelled at. Come with the patience. Enjoy your browsing about and get your affordable groceries. We definitely are here at least three days a week! We have a large family and our refrigerators only can hold so much. We definitely are taking use of this Aldi near us! Come check them out! read more

Affordable , nice employees , fast service , not crowded ... the chocolate bars ... so good . But, just bring your own bag, the cart is just a few and needs $.25 to use it sometimes doesn't work . read more

If you like Trader Joe's, you might appreciate Aldi's, because they are owned by the same people. If you don't have a quarter, I heard that if you ask an employee, they can give you one. Aldi's doesn't want you to leave and not shop, just because you don't have one. I've never tried it but that makes sense to me. Visited today for the first time. Tiana, the cashier was super nice when I reported smashed fruit on the ground that could be a hazard. She was also very nice upon checkout. The selection was much more than I expected and it reminded me of the now defunct, Fresh & Easy. They have organic produce, the price isn't bad either. I was really impressed with their cheese selection and how cheap their European chocolates were. I got a large bar for $2.65, would have cost more at Target, which is where I go often for cheap groceries. Check out their nut selection and the milk was super cheap there. I don't live in the area, wish there was an Aldi's in my area. They had frozen foods and ice cream, that I wish I could buy but they would melted in this hot weather. I will be back when I pass through again. read more

This place is like a small Ralph's grocery store. The prices seemed to be reasonably. The aisle are large. read more

The grocery have made food to buy and cook at home. The cashier service was controlled with attendance associates. Place was not too busy on Saturday at 10:00 am. Very organized grocery. I did not know that the shopping cart was for rent. I don't carry coins anymore. So my shopping was limited. read more

Aldi's is not a location that I frequent. There isn't a particular reason, I just don't happen to. That being said the few times I have gone, it's been a hit or miss situation for me. The store is very clean and well stocked. My issue is often with their lack of open registers. After walking around and shopping for however long it takes, the last thing that I want to do is stand in a very long line for an additional 15 minutes. read more

I have been several times to this store and found it to be very clean, well lit and the staff is friendly and helpful. Prices are much lower than Ralphs or Stater Bros. Just a few examples: Sour cream at Ralphs on sale $2.99. - At Aldi only $1.19. Package of 24 Ibuprofen at Ralphs for $1.99. At Aldi I get 100! pills for the same price, same dosage. Avocados $1.29 at Stater, only $0.49 at Aldi I don't mind bagging my own items, after all, it is just one of many ways how Aldi keeps the prices low. However, I can also see where a bagging service would be helpful, for example if people bring their kids to the store. Generally speaking though, I think people make too much of a big deal out of it and I wonder why the same shoppers don't complain about bagging their own stuff at Winco, Costco, Food4less etc?! But now suddenly at Aldi, it is this huge obstacle ... I like the cart system, because I don't see any carts in the parking lot and hopefully we won't see any crashing into cars on windy days like it happens all too frequently at other stores, because people do not return them. The 25 cent deposit is no big deal, since you get it back. Checkout has been fast due to speedy cashiers and the fact, that there are barcodes on several sides on Aldi products and the cashiers don't have to twist and turn the items to scan. I have tried a variety of their store brand products and the quality is comparable to the bigger name brands, which is great because you will pay considerably less. They do have a selection of organic produce, organic pantry items as well as gluten free and international products. Love their DOUBLE GUARANTEE! If you are not satisfied with a product, they will replace it AND refund your money. read more

Great convenient place to pick up fresh produce, organic stuff and items you cannot find in any other place. Feels like shopping in EU market. I like the feeling of simplicity. It does not carry everything that a supermarket does however it gets the job done for someone like me. Quick bite, ready to cook meals...organic snacks etc. good value: price you pay and the items you get. read more

This store it's ok to buy but the customer checkout staff or workers are really disrespectful to the customer. I had a really bad experience by the cashier at the store and it really sad bc I'm not coming back no more. I rather go somewhere else. read more

Great store everything you need for a great price. I love going to this store because I spend less money for a lot more food.

I appreciate the value of this store. They have very inexpensive produce, eggs, dairy and I love their hummus & pita chips, as well as honey Greek yogurt. I love when they have speciality German items as well. The staff is friendly and the store is clean. You have to know going on that you won't have variety in choices and you have to pay $.25 to use the shopping cart. Why? Because lazy a$$ people across the US don't put their shopping carts back, but when the WITFM is getting their $.25 back, they'll return it where they got it. read more

Constantly reminded why I prefer Trader Joe's over this place. Stopped here for convenience. Used my Trader Joe's bag as my "basket" since they only offer carts. When checking out the cashier stacked all my items on the cart seat area and proceeded to place the nexts shoppers items in the basket part of cart. Not to mention I had about a dozen items and the other shopper had three. I had to hurry and throw my items in my bag and then had to rearrange it in the bagging area. I'm just saying some customer consideration would be nice. It doesn't hurt to be mindful or have customer service. Prices are not that much cheaper than Trader Joe's and I've NEVER had bad customer service there. read more

I have heard good things about this store. You pay a quarter to rent a cart (which is returned after you return the cart). I chose to go without a cart. They have an amazing drink selection. Love the variety. Prices are pretty comparable to other places. They have basics in the store, but most items do not have a variety of choices. They do have decent prices on most items. The store seemed small. They pack a lot in. They do miss a lot of personal hygiene products which is a bummer. I still have to go to other stores to get the rest. This will not replace my Target runs, but every once in awhile I will pop in for deals. Bring your own bags and be prepared to bag your own items. Also, if you are slow, be prepared to fend off devil looks as you organize your items in your bags. read more

First, get a preview of what you're walking into: https://www.aldi.us/en/new-to-aldi/shopping-at-aldi/ Got it? Let's go! Quarter to unlock a shopping cart: Check. Reusable shopping bags: Check. Shopping list of the items you buy most often: Check. You're right, the place is small, but it's not the "chamber of horrors" food rationing center from the darkest days of the Berlin Wall era as some have said. ALDI Inc. is the American subsidiary of German grocer ALDI SÜD (ALDI South), so don't be surprised when competitors' shills make outlandish claims like that. Once you get used to things like multiple item categories on each aisle and seasonal hard goods in the middle of the store, it all makes sense. Oh, and try the chunky chicken noodle soup. Yeah, I know, you never heard of Chef's Cupboard but trust me, it's just as good as the stuff in the blue or red can, only cheaper. Same goes for the Brookdale chili versus Brand H and the Parkview breakfast sausage links compared to J[CENSORED]ville. Grab 2 of those 1-pound bags of Priano bronze-cut pasta from Italy for about the same as you pay for a single pound somewhere else. Mama Cozzi's take-and-bake pizza from the fridge deli case might make you kiss your pizza delivery driver goodbye, but you can still be friends. And the Choceur brand chocolate from Europe? 2 DIE 4 at a Hershey bar price! Contrary to misinformation or deliberate disinformation, these aren't close-outs from failed grocery chains or short-dated overstock they bought up by the ton. These are ALDI's house brands, guaranteed to be at least as good as nationally advertised brands. If you see something you like under the ALDI Finds banner, grab all you can afford because these are limited-time items that might not be back. What's this? The cashier sits while you stand and unload your cart? Get over yourself and your indignation. Wealthier people than you have been buying groceries this way for ages in Europe and at ALDI stores east of the Mississippi since the 1970s. And put that box of granola bars on the belt instead of staring at the multiple bar codes. You're holding up the line. ALDI does that so the cashier doesn't have to play Hide 'N' Seek with a single elusive UPC symbol. Along with bagging your own groceries, everything you see speeds things up and keeps prices low. Now look at your receipt. Dang, that total seems low. What did they forget to ring up? Honey, start the car before they find out! False alarm. Everything's accounted for. Park the cart, insert the chain and there's your quarter. Tuck it away for next time. Can't wait to do it again? I know how you feel. read more

I went to the Grand Opening late in the day and found Aldi to have some good deals. All of their items are generic brands made for them, but just like the real thing. I picked up a few items. You need to deposit a quarter 25 cents to get a cart which is something different. They also do accept all major credit cards. This chain is based in Illinois, but the family who owns it is from Germany and has ties to Trader Joe's. I'll be back. Aldi and Trader Joe's Family Ties Albrecht Discount was founded by Anna Albrecht in Essen, Germany. Her sons Karl and Theo later took over the company. In 1960, the brothers allegedly had a disagreement about selling cigarettes and split the company. Theo renamed his company Aldi Nord. Karl named his Aldi Sud. Aldi Nord controls territories north of the Rhine and much of Europe. Aldi Sud controls southern Germany, parts of Europe, the UK and Ireland. Both companies operate in the United States. Aldi Sud is called Aldi and Aldi Nord is called Trader Joe's. read more

ALDI - Grocery Near Me - Fontana, California

The news of Germans descending upon us sounds a little scary, but in this instance, fear not. ALDI is here to pump you up or at least your wallets by saving you shopping $, but at the same time, they are going to nickel and dime you AND quarter you for shopping carts and bags. So, come prepared! Thanks Carlos G. for your warning about the shopping cart and bag situation. The outside and inside of store have a very plain, austere look. No sounds of music. No German motif. Nothing fun or festive. Except the cereal aisle. Initially, the boxes look like name brands, but when you look closer, they are not. It's the same type or flavor of name brand cereal, and the box design and color are the same, but they give it a different name, and the character is different. For example, yellow box looks a lot like Cheerios, but it's not, it's a knock off. Another box looks like Lucky Charms, but it's not. My beloved Leprechaun is gone, and instead there's some old wizard guy. Trickster rabbit also missing. At first, I found this very disturbing and disorienting. Did I have too much wine, or am I being punked?! Then after I took a few moments to collect my marbles, it became somewhat entertaining and funny. Moving on . . . Or trying really hard to! Why the heck are the shopping carts Costco sized when this is such a tiny store? Come on German engineering, give us a shopping cart size that matches your uber efficient store! (Hint--go look at the fun size carts at Sprouts in Upland). Prices are fairly reasonable. The best deals I saw were $ .99/lb for green grapes, $.39/lb for bananas, $.50 for dozen eggs. I didn't check out the meat section, but good prices for cheese/dairy. I picked up some staples and some goodies--vino, prosciutto panino, and chocolate raspberry strudel. Ok shopping experience, but some things were odd (besides the cereal aisle and giant sized carts.) Gardening supplies in the middle aisle of the store? Why? And at the entrance, there was a traffic jam. Apparently caused by the placement of candy at the entrance. I might return, but this location is not really in my neighborhood. I was on a shopping date with my friend who lives in the area. Another store is scheduled to open in La Verne, a little closer to home. Some pre planning might make the trip more productive --checking the website for current ad ($5 coupon), and recipe suggestions (know what sale items to buy to make a meal) --but not sure I'm sold on this place. read more

ALDI - My loot for about $31 - Grocery Near Me - Fontana, California

See all

ALDI is based in Germany and has almost 10,000 stores in 18 countries. There's about 1,500 on the east coast of the U.S but now they're planning to open 45 stores in the west coast region. Right now, there's supposed to be 8 stores opening in southern california this week. Their distribution center is located in Moreno Valley. The reason why it's so small and there's not a milion things like food4less or walmart is because it only sells the most commonly used/needed things to be energy efficient by only using a small amount of space. With this small amount of space, they save money on electricity bills and staff which means that the prices of their food and merchandise is cheaper as well. GROCERY BAGS ARE 15 CENTS FOR PLASTIC AND 10 FOR PAPER. REUSABLE BAGS ARE $1.99.TO USE CARTS, YOU PUSH IN 25 CENTS TO UNLOCK THE CART AND WHEN YOU'RE DONE, TAKE OUT THE 25 CENTS. This is pretty nifty since they don't have to hire extra help to put carts back which also decreases the price of their food and merchandise. They have an app which I think tells you the weekly ad and the stuff you can currently be saving on. All in all, pretty cool market. Everything that is slightly cheaper is of their own name but should have the same quality. read more

ALDI - Fruit juices - Grocery Near Me - Fontana, California

Everyone seemed really excited to be a part of the Aldi brand. It just opened so everything is new and clean. Nearly all the produce looked great aside from a couple of avocados that were overly ripe and some tomatoes that seemed to give organic a bad rep because they weren't as vibrant as the other tomatoes. Selection of items were fairly standard but that's so it doesn't needlessly waste space and money, resulting in lower prices for you. The carts are Costco big and this kind of worries me because it will result in the same type of gridlock especially since this is a smaller store. That same fear applies to the counter you use to bag your groceries. Sometimes we become a little absent minded or too self entitled but we'll see how it goes. read more

ALDI - Aldi's reusable bags are nylon (1.99 + tax) but spacious. They also have traditional paper and sturdy plastic bags. - Grocery Near Me - Fontana, California

Aldi isn't my first choice when it comes to grocery stores. It super convenient when I'm shopping at other stores in the area. It's usually pretty clean however today was quite disappointing. There were quite a few knats flying around the fruit section. It was pretty gross. I needed a red onion but had to put it back,all of the onion's were in bad shape,rotting and molding. In the bread isle there were bagged baguettes that were all moldy. There was definitely more then one. If I continue to shop here I'll definitely inspect my items closely. read more

First time here! New customer! Super happy with this store. Great price, good quality, clean, organize, and enough variety. I highly recommend this place to people who like to save and willing to try some new brands but they also have some popular brand items. Definitely will try to go here more often now. I would mention each of the prices that made me go wow but i want people to go here and see them for themselves! It's worth checking out. read more

Went in today to see if they had the cheese advent calendar that has been in the ad since last Sunday. I went to Covina Aldi they didn't have them. I sent my husband to this store two days ago and they were keeping a list of customers who wanted the product. Today I went in didn't see them out and asked again after being put on the list. They have them in but are not putting them out they are saving them for customers on the list. Good for me I was on the list, bad for everyone else. They also had some chocolate advent Christmas calendars. You can find some good stuff here on ad. read more

I shop at this store every two weeks. I can fill up an entire cart with $150 and feed 4 people. If you like brand food this is not the store for you. If you like to budget and save then you'll save tons here! You cannot beat their prices! read more

I love Aldi, but they really need to keep price database accurate to reflect the shelf price. I've been overcharged 4 times now! 3 times at Summit location and once in Duarte. Duarte checker rang up 8 bags of popcorn kernels when I only purchased one! Too bad i was already home before reading my receipt, but I definitely drove back that evening to get my $11 back. CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS BEFORE LEAVING! read more

Ok, so to say that I was seriously shocked when I walked through Aldi's doors is an understatement. Everyone at work kept mentioning this new grocery store, Aldi, and how inexpensive it was and how modern and what not. They mentioned it carried organic foods, etc, and I thought, ooooh I have to check this place out. Maybe it's like a budget trader joes???? WRONG! So I don't usually write reviews about grocery stores, because really, I don't think many people read reviews for grocery stores before they decide to commit to shopping there. But for the few of you that do, I felt the need to share my experience so that y'all weren't as shocked as I was. The truth is, it's a budget store, and that's it. Even if some of the stuff that I bought was organic, everything about it screamed cheap. Reminded me of the food they sell at the 99 cents store (as someone else mentioned in another review). Everything is still in boxes, and it all just screams basic. Plain and simple. You pick out your bags before you pay, then you head over to a counter to bag your items. Oh, and last but not least, you have to pay a 25 cent deposit for your cart. You put a quarter in and I think you get it back after you're done? That's the idea anyway. I couldn't figure out how to get it out so I just said, "forget it." I did like some of the things, like the bread and the frozen pizzas were different. I may return. Maybe. read more

The Germans (ALDI) are in Fontana, Ca and spreading across California to a neighborhood near you with the next craze of small markets competing with both union and non-union retail. This particular location is pretty fierce all within 1/16 of a mile you have a union supermarket who's slogan reads "the low-priced leader in your hometown" and the other has a giant red bullseye logo LOL. This is officially my 3rd visit and finally came with the idea of buying groceries for the next 5 days to see how it benefits our life style. Insert .25 cents to free up a shopping cart and you're good to go. I came on a Sunday and found store to be mid occupied with shoppers and that in itself was a bit on the crowded side. I found myself leaving cart off to the side to approach goods and carry back to cart. It was basically like this on every aisle. One thing that is awkward for at least this location, as you enter floor plan, you find yourself entering your first aisle that eventually leads to produce. One would think to offset entrance as oppose to how this store is situated. In comparing to markets of this size, it definitely comes in on the larger side to that other store that wears laid back shirts and usually has America - Horse with no name playing over the speaker system. Produce section is small but it presents well and is stocked with both organic and traditional one can expect to find. I did find single organic avocados needed attention. A lot of over ripe avocados starting to peel and contaminate. I saw one dedicated employee making rounds to ensure floor is clean and free of debris, made multiple rounds. I also saw (2) employee's observing the flow of foot traffic, facing off products and keeping adverts in plain view and adjusting. Also came across a small "general merchandise" section that carries simple clothing goods, kitchen aids, home tools. The outer section of store has all of your frozen goods, cold cuts, breakfast meats, dairy, eggs, juices and meats (no butcher service). Decor is very basic with a modern euro edge. Refrigerated equipment is built solid and durable with solid handles and stand above average. Floor chests are lit and bright with sliding glass tops. You might have to accept these generic name brand goods and see how well they are. Ventured off and got flour tortillas, nuts, cottage cheese, sour cream and whole milk for our kids. You can also find famous name brands as well and you have that choice. With all that being said, prices at ALDI are far below everyone else and I'm sure it's making waves. Generic labels are well below and so are name brands discounted drastically in comparison. Example of low price - Friendly Farms whole milk, 1 gallon $2.45. When I worked in this industry years ago, 1 gallon of milk was $1.90 and that was eons ago. Cashier sits on a office type chair with full lumbar support as items are scanned and placed back into shopping cart. At this time, you can purchase paper or durable plastic/vinyl carrying bags or use your personal bags of choice. Once merchandise is paid, you move to final station to bag your own groceries at your leisure. It's a bit confusing but it all makes sense after you bag your groceries and you observe others going through line or bagging groceries. Here's the awkward thing with shopping carts, you can leave it nearby at your convenience with wheels pinned against a planter or return cart to get .25 cents you inserted to access cart. I think it's a great concept and hopefully shoppers can respect the idea and follow through. It's a win, win for the property and neighborhood with less stray carts. Hours of business 9 to 9 Will I come back, of course.

Ok I don't do reviews on grocery stores but I felt I needed to here. NOT a fan! Ok prices are reasonable for fruit and veggies. 90% of their items are look a like brand names but really generic. I was able to get a box of Special K for a reasonable price. Nice selection of wines Yes, you need a quarter to "rent" a cart but you get it back once you return it. The downfall, it sucks if you have an infant like me and have to keep going back and forth and end up having to put the carrier on he floor cause you have to corral the cart. Bagging your items is an understatement and this here is the reason I will not go back. Before you think I'm all snotty and prefer someone to bag my items, i do shop and food4less and Winco frequently. I ended up purchasing a plastic bag for $.15 (no biggie) but I didn't expect them to grab my cart with my baby inside his carrier in the cargo area and toss my items like they were just some pieces of barnyard hay. I had to look around to see if it was just me or if that's their thing. Guess what, that's their thing. Plus all the while they are sitting cozy in a chair. Then, you go across the walk away (not far) and bag all your items. Felt like I was getting my stuff together after TSA goes through all your items. Makes me wonder what if I didn't have a cart, would they get an empty cart for them to toss and me grab??? Not worth the hassle read more

I love aldi! It's my favorite grocery store, and I regularly shop there. It seems like I can never get out of a grocery store for less than 100 bucks, but it all day it seems like I always check out around 50 to 60, and get way more then I would get at a normal store (I mean, a LOT more.) The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Prices are always reasonable. It's so easy to shop there because there isn't a Million different brands. All the people that complain about having to bring bags are that they don't like that it's a quarter for cart just simply don't understand. The stores whole purpose is convenience and simplicity. It's nice that when you get there, there's not shopping carts all over the place and left in parking spots Keeping you from parking. People return the courts to where they belong so that they can get your quarter back, which leaves the parking lot cart free and tidy. Bagging your own groceries keep the line moving quickly, as they put your groceries back in your cart so that you can be on your way so they can start ringing up the next person. It's not a Health Foods store, but they do offer a lot of organic and healthier options. I feel like people reading it with lower stars because they expected a health food store isn't fair. The packaging on most all their products are simple, but they are all high-quality products. They even offer a double warranty if you're not satisfied with the product go replace it and refund your money. I highly recommend this store. read more

Beware food products supplied from CHINA!! Read labels carefully. I was extremely disappointed to see jars of Sweet Harvest sliced peaches and mixed fruit are products of CHINA. No surprise, they didn't taste very good...that's what led me to read the label =( Other items are just listed as "distributed by Aldi in Illinois". Aldi, you can do better than that! Be kind to your consumers! read more

This is definitely one of my go to stores to save a grip of money. I normally only stick to the item that are on sale in the weekly ads. There is usually a killer deal on one protein, a couple fruits and veggies, and eggs are usually under a buck for a dozen here! Super great place for a keto diet.... but even if you shop for regular items that aren't on sale they are usually a good buy. I give it 4 stars bc they usually don't carry name brands, which is okay for some items, but as everyone knows.... Some items generic brands just don't taste the same. It be nice to have a larger selection of items. Over all I love coming here once a week to stock up on the sale items! read more

After all the promotions we had heard and seen about this new chain of grocery stores coming to the west coast, we decided to check it out for ourselves. The staff at this location were very friendly and helpful, and the store was clean and very well organized. We found everything we were looking for. The check out was simple, except for the fact that we forgot to bring our own bags. But no worries, $0.10/ paper bag wasn't a big deal. Overall, I'm very pleased with his new grocery store. The total we spent was a lot less than I anticipated. We will definitely be coming back to do our shopping here in the future. read more

The "rich man's" 99cent only store as my fiancé put it. We drove well out of our way to try Aldi and what a waste of time it was. We found a few good deals so that was okay but not enough for a second visit. We are a mid 20s couple (okay okay I'm 30! lol) without kids to give some reference. All and all the fit and finish of the store isn't there. It just oozes faux euro charm. It comes off as gimmicky. A quarter for a shopping cart deposit, the checkout stand works are sitting i don't know why that seems weird but that's just me, and they charge you for bags! Then you have to bag them on an awkward bagging line. When I barked about it the young lady said "we don't hide the cost" hide them I don't care. This store just rubbed me the wrong way. read more

1. You have to put a quarter in for getting a shopping cart. 2. No Fresh Organic Fruit. 3. Poor selection of Organic Fresh Vegetables. 4. No butchers all meats are processed. 5. When checking out had to buy grocery bags because they don't bag and clerk sitting in chair. 6. Ask who Aldi is competing against clerk replied Stater Bro's ( don't worry Stater Bro's you are #1 grocery chain in Southern Calif). Aldi will be like Fresh and Easy out of business. The only positive note is the price on Tejava tea is lower than Sprout's along with Honest Tea. As a resident of Rancho Cucamonga hopefully Aldi won't be successful. I thought Aldi was suppose to be similar to Sprout's or Whole Foods boy was I wrong. I had to score one star because I wasn't able to give '0' stars! read more
