I'm an Aldi regular - although I'm not a regular at this particular Aldi. Since I was in the area a few weekends ago, I figured I would stop in and grab my groceries before I headed home from my prior engagement. Unfortunately, this specific Aldi is currently plagued by the same problem affecting other locations: the great cart shortage of 2022. As the nickname suggests, certain Aldi locations have a minimal number of carts available to shoppers. I don't quite understand why this happening - I do know that as a result, shoppers have two options. You can form a line at the door, waiting for one of the small handful of carts to be available. Or you can grab some empty packaging and use that as a tiny, 100% handheld cart. I opted for the second during my visit. Fortunately, in my case, I could easily carry and fit the basic groceries I needed in a single cardboard carton. While the cart shortage was a nuisance, all the normal positive things I associate with Aldi still applied. The store doesn't sell every specialty item you might want, but all the basics are available, and all are reasonably priced. The staff are also super nice and were working hard to keep lines moving, as well as helping those of us without carts to re-pack our items after checking out. If you take one thing away from my review, it's this: keep the cart issues in mind if you have a long grocery list. I only needed a few items during my most recent visit, but if I needed more than I could fit into an old packaging box, waiting for a cart would certainly have held me up. So plan accordingly during these weird times! read more

Poor instacart service for grocery pickup from this store. I will not be using this service again. There have been times when they were several hours behind in readying groceries for pickup. The final straw was when an employee literally lectured me that I had to be in the 2 spaces provided in order to receive my groceries. I was in an adjacent space and they had my car make, model, and color. I had to hassle to get my groceries. The employee was devoid of customer service. I have no doubt that there will be further trouble with that particular employee; he's a bad hire and poorly trained. When I receive my vegetables most of the instacart employees do not put them in small plastic bags. My lettuce, cabbage, and other vegetables are tossed into the big bag uncovered. This store has forgotten that the customer comes first. read more

Despite there being two Aldi's in the area (within a two mile radius of each other) I prefer this one mainly because parking is so much easier and so much less stressful. They normally have everything I need too! The organization of the store is just like every other Aldi. The customer service is great and the check-out lines move quickly. read more

OMG, Aldi is the best for shopping fresh fruits and veggies at such low prices. I will try to always go here to get my weekly supplies.

Out of all Aldi locations this one is my favorite. I live in Bloomfield and can walk to this one or Shadyside in same time. This location seems cleaner and to always have more in stock. If they don't have something I'll go to Shadyside. I prefer the selection and staff at this store. read more

I love the store ALDI on 5200 Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA . They always take care of all my needs and I live very close by.

I live across the street from here and I love shopping here. Everything is well stocked and the employees are very friendly.

I always find most things I need at this location and the produce selection is great. My only problem is there are never enough cashiers and always stand in line forever. Maybe they are shorthanded? I looked to see if they were hiring and they are not. This place needs more help up front. read more

LOVE Aldi! The prices are incredible. The people that work there are terrific. The selection is interesting. I can usually expect certain items to always be there; but, some are not. The branding is interesting as well. We've done a few taste comparisons with the major brands. I am sold on their dressings, their ketchup, protein bars, cheeses, milk and juice. We also like some of their snack items. I believe their produce is fresher than most grocery stores. I like the $0.25 cart system. It actually seems to bring folks together-they actually talk to one another when getting carts, returning carts, or offering carts. I am usually in and out in far less time than any other grocery store. Aldi is my go to grocery store! read more

I do not like aldi mainly for the reason that you cannot get in touch with anybody when they screw up your instacart order and charge you money that they shouldn't have there is no number I can find or person I can contact it seems to resolve this issue my wife ordered groceries online and the next thing I know my credit card has two separate charges one for $40 and one for $5.79 nothing I bought would have been that amount on my card like I said you can't get hold of anybody and there is no phone number to try to remedy the problem and get my money back for items that were not purchased but were billed for if anybody else has any problems like that I suggest you contact the attorney general like I'm going to do read more

My boyfriend and I made it out to this new Aldi location finally! I was a loyal Aldi shopper growing up, but he'd never been to one. He loved it, and since it's less than a five minute drive from our house I know we'll be frequent customers here. The space was laid out pretty much like all mid-size Aldis I've been in. It goes from snacks when you first walk in to meats and frozen foods at the other end, with produce in the middle and deli food along the back wall. Everything was clean and new. There were plenty of home goods in one aisle, and I hope they end up getting fun plants in stock like some of the other locations have. As always the food prices can't be beat! Greek yogurts for 84 cents, real vanilla for $1.99, and cans of pumpkin for 89 cents. (Hello holiday baking!) I'm so glad Aldi has arrived in my neighborhood, I know I'll be doing my food shopping here and at Trader Joe's for the foreseeable future. read more

This Aldi's location always provides a relatively painless grocery buying experience. I say 'painless' because I do not typically enjoy grocery shopping. The aisles here are kept cleaned and cleared, which allows for easy maneuverability as you push your cart through the store. Additionally, this location seems to be trying a new store layout, and quite frankly it's much better than the previous one. It's even easier to navigate through the store with the new and improved organization. Also, the customer service is quite wonderful. They're quick to open new checkout lanes as needed and are friendly with each customer. read more

Good to have a place to get cheap cashews, and great salad - just wish the rest of their products were as healthy or fresh. Great place for cheap party snacks for a once in a while event, but not bulk shopping for daily meals: It's astounding the amount of salt, sugar, and fat (mostly unhealthy fats) and additives - like there's practically nothing there that doesn't have high fructose corn syrup or cane sweetener in it. And the ham was full of gristle and little bits of bone. The chicken is all frozen/half-thawed. Says nothing about what they were fed. And much of the fruit was so green when it was picked it often never ripens, just goes bad. That being said, their whole- head Artisan Salad boxes are great for those who want salad to stay fresh long enough for 1-2 people to eat it all. (Simply wash the container and rinse whole heads, peeling off any damaged leaves, cut 1/8 inch off the stalks, put 1/4 inch spring water in plastic box and replace heads. We've had them stay fresh in the fridge this way for six weeks as a busy schedule precluded eating at home enough or they got pushed to the rear of the bottom shelf). Another great buy, their "Willow" toilet paper truly rocks. (Soft rock, of course.) read more

This has been my go to Aldis, and I've done most of my shopping here. I came here this week, first time in the store since the virus. Today, the store did not limit customers, and aisles were crowded. Staff did not wear masks. No social distancing at check out. Not as advertised, and I did not feel safe. May want to try a different store if you are concerned about the virus. read more

I love to buy the food over here.They are cheap and fresh.the store is closed to my house.it is very convinient

I was at this location on Friday evening. I was just having one of those crazy evenings. Because of me everything was going wrong. I dropped my card and could not find it. The sweet cashier helped me and found it. THen when London rank up my order she told me what my total was. I just handed her my card. I was supposed to swipe it. She was so sweet she swiped it for me. Then, I did not have enough money so I had to take something off my list. London was so sweet during this entire interaction. I am the reason why so many errors happen with this interaction. London was such a sweetheart and I thank her for her kindness. read more
