It's clean and has a huge selection of anything you could need (except for fabric softener for whatever reason!) Try their lava cake in their dessert section as well as their pesto. The cashiers are insanely slow, however, but self checkout makes it bearable here. read more

This giant took 5 weeks to get their brand of ice tea in to the store. Also the two women working at the lunch meat counter should be fired. They are slow as hell and they don't want to move fast at all. Fire them they are worthless. read more

This used to be my go to grocery store and my recent visit reminded me why I stopped going. Honestly don't miss it at all. Too many times I have gotten fruit here and had it instantly go bad. The order at the deli kiosk thing is great in theory. If it's working you should be able to put in your order and then go shopping. However, whenever we go it is conveniently turned off or out of order. So, you have to wait forever to even put in your deli order and then start your shopping. Also, I know this is a Havertown law but they did away with plastic bags so you have to bring your own bags and bag it yourself. Overall, if I have to deal with all that I would rather go to Aldi for half the price. read more

I've been purchasing the Frieda's mighty gold organic turmeric for about a year from this location. Today's purchase was the least fresh (I threw two pieces away, the quantity way less and pieces smaller. The price went up for less quality and quantity. I actually need two bags to accomplish what I normally used one bag of turmeric to accomplish. Will definitely look at other brands and locations to purchase turmeric. read more

I use the pharmacy at the Giant store in Havertown often. The pharmacist and pharmacy helpers are wonderful. They are always helpful and polite.

They have the rudest employees. Always miserable. The self checkout is horrible. Especially the female employees. One Always tries to make you go to a cashier saying you have over 20 items but they refuse to count them. The only good thing about this giant store is the people working in the pharmacy. Always friendly and helpful.a read more

Too often I encounter store employees on break in front of the store puffing on cigarettes. Disgusting. Me and my young child/pregnant wife should not be exposed to secondhand smoke while trying to shop for groceries. It's shameful that they allow this right in front of the store in the covered openings near the entrance. Even by the edge of the parking area with the picnic benches is too close to your patrons who want to breathe clean air while loading their groceries into their cars. This location and many others have multiple self-checkout lanes but the staff is inadequate to handle the flow. Too often there are multiple lanes waiting on one employee to clear a code or check the weight of something. The few times I have seen two employees working self-check-out one is often looking into the distance with a confused look when they are to be directing customers to open stalls for checkout. This happened once when the self-checkout line went back to the frozen food section. Come on lady, you really have one job at that moment. Big shout out to the guy who manages the beer/wine area... he is always so helpful and works to source really quality products from all over. The bakery has been doing a much better job of getting their donuts out in a timely manner. Just a year or two ago the donuts would be out about a half hour after opening which is an issue when I'm in charge of picking up donuts for my students and I need to be in my building by 7am, so that's an improvement. I still come in here on occasion but this is not my preferred Giant anymore... I hope they can solve the smoking issue, that seems like such low-hanging fruit. read more

Giant had good prices tonight, however, when I was checking out, I asked the cashier for help she stated "I need to go" and then called out for someone else to do her job, and walked away. I work with the public everyday and serve the people of our community. I do not leave my position until every individual I meet has been taken care of. Hence, her mannerisms and customer service skills were unacceptable. Sorry Giant, I can only give you 2 stars, customer care is very important to me! read more

GIANT Food Store - Fruits and vegetables are a great source of vitamins and nutrients and are also a way to increase your body's energy levels! - Grocery Near Me - Havertown, Pennsylvania

This is probably my favorite Giant food store in the area. It's HUGE but the parking lot is not large enough. During busy times I find myself shying away. They do share it with a few other stores so that doesn't help. Plus they have a gas station so that eats up a bit of the lot. There is a station to scan while you shop. I could never get it to work with my card so I stopped trying. There is so much to choose from and this is great if your child has allergies or is glutten free or if you just like organic items. Many choices in all the departments. You can also pick up prepared foods here which is great if you're having a party. I pass a few food markets before this location so I don't come here often. I do like coming in to pick up a few specialty items. They also have a nice produce section. Yes I'll be back. read more

I went here specifically for their large variety of freshly made food. I headed straight for the sushi aisle and also grabbed some precooked chicken wings. The sushi was delicious as usual and I was actually surprised by the wings because I never purchased them before. The sweet chili were our favorite. I also enjoyed their self check out with a large belt and bagging area. It made checking out so easy and convenient. read more

I agree with my good Yelp friend Teri R. It's hard to judge a grocery store when it first opens. You would expect everything to be bright and new and it is. You would expect the shelves to be beautifully stocked and they are. You would expect all kinds of grand Opening Specials and they're everywhere. The grocery market in Havertown is about to get interesting. A few tenths of a mile one way is Acme and a few tenths another way is Super Fresh. These folks are right in the middle. BTW, it's hard not to compare this store to the Wegmans in KOP. It's clear they are going for the same look and feel. There are a few things about this store I really like already. There is a licensed Starbucks inside. I'll definitely make use of them. There is a nicely organized and extensive section of craft beers they call the Beer Garden. Don't thing this is like the Pub at Wegmans. It's not a place to sit and drink but to buy beer to-go. They have those mini-carts similar to those at Wegmans. I love them. They are open 24/7. They aisles are very wide and it's easy to maneuver. The signage is also very good. As we move forward past the Grand Opening the bottom line is going to be prices, freshness and customer service. Only time will tell. For now I'm going for three stars. read more

GIANT Food Store - Storefront photo - Grocery Near Me - Havertown, Pennsylvania

The food is fine, but the new check out system is absolutely awful. They only had self-check out, which saves the store money, but nobody likes it. I don't appreciate having a stupid machine not understand the purchase or require that I wait for an assistant 3X. These machines also make a lot of noise and make the entire shopping experience unpleasant. What happened to caring about customer experience? read more

This store is getting worse. When using the self checkout, make sure you rescan your bonus card every time they fix your machine or you will be pay -ing full price. their attendance don't know what they're doing. Or maybe they do? As of today I am done shopping havertown giant read more

Stopped shopping at Giant over a year ago. Horrible experience using the self checkout. I had a large order and that was my first mistake using their self checkout. Could not place checked out items back in my cart without system repeating "place item in the bagging area." Associate had to come over several times because "Help Is On the Way" error message. Associate became impatient and got nasty with me. I left disgusted and vowed never to shop there again and I haven't. read more

Good evening to my Yelp Family!!! I had to update my review to give a shout- out to three Giant employees: Julissa, Ever and Toni. Julissa and Ever both work in the Customer Service Department and sometimes you will find Julissa working at Customer Self-Checkout. Julissa and Ever are both friendly and nice, personable and warm. They are both ready to assist with whatever concern you may have. They are both an asset to Giant -Havertown. I wanted to add another name here: Toni, who works at the gas station. Toni is always kind and gracious!!! Toni always smiles and makes everyone feel welcome!! Toni is a joy to be around!! Till next review, Yelp Family!!!! read more

I dont know why I torture myself! Tried to get a scanner...none working. Tried to weigh my fruit...no working scales. Went to grab a bag of white potatoes...none there. Waited 25 minutes at the deli counter and there was only 3 other people in line. Ugh! There's also tons of trash in parking lot. Cant wait for Drexeline to open. read more

Some of the workers there need to be checked. Their people skills are pretty bad. I understand most of the young folks don't want to be there but that does mean you need to be rude to others for just existing. Kinda embarrassing read more

Best store always nice and clean. Pharmacy is the best very friendly and convenient. The pharmacist John the best.

Cashiers are extremely rude, also discounts never match whatever they have on the label. You need to fight to get the discount what they offer in the labels. read more

After 30ish great experiences ordering cakes at Giant in Havertown, I've bought my last one. The man taking my order was extremely rude the whole time. He spent 5 minutes arguing why he shouldn't write down several basic instructions instead of the 5 seconds it would take to do so. Ultimately, the cake was wrong because he refused to write down what I was asking him to do. Done with Giant bakery. read more

These food stores tend to be big but pricey compared to other supermarkets in the area. Just my perception? My favorite thing about THIS location is the beer garden! Beer beer beer! They have a large selection of craft beers and I love it! I even found my favorite beer here (Rogue Hazelnut) which I have had trouble finding on the west coast! I also find that when I come here I am drawn to the sushi section, fo no particular reason at all. I mean pre-packaged sushi is never as good as the freshly prepared stuff. In any event, I got suckered in (again) to getting a sushi roll (see pic). It was decent considering it was prepackaged and all and it sure was pretty to look at. I will obviously continue to frequent this venue. read more

GIANT Food Store - Food as far as the eye can see... - Grocery Near Me - Havertown, Pennsylvania

I cannot believe that Giant added so many new self-checkout lines. I loved when they added more of the smaller self-checkout machines. But when I went the other day there were only 2 checkouts lines open with cashiers. And the people in the new self-checkout lines were so slow. So the wait for a checkouts line with a cashier was very long. Not very good customer service. read more

So I have mixed reviews for this Giant location: Pros: 1. One of the few giants in the area that sells Beer and Wine 2. The Giant has it attached so you can use your reward points and fill your tank after shopping. 3. It is HUGE so you should always find what you are looking for. 4. They have take away food (pre cooked) for lazy days. Cons: 1. Parking lot is always busy, regardless of time 2. The lines can get very long on Saturdays and Sundays 3. It can be hard to find items since the store is so large read more

distopian nightmare. They have a robit that follows you around tge store. They they no longer have chechout people. As a customer you feel like a cattle being herded around the store when you reach the chechout lines they are long and when you finally get to where there used to be a friendly cashier there is just a computer screen beeping at you and repeating orders to you "place the item in the bag" I sometimes still go in tgis store only because it is next to Lowes read more

Situated in Haverford Township (pop.50,000 +) and bordering Upper Darby Township, (pop. 85,000) this Giant does a great business and continues to ring the bell for corporate, but its inability to staff and regulate the crowds that this store regularly brings is appalling. Like many in the industry, they've chosen to utilize automation and I've embraced the self-check out model currently employed in the store, but when store management has 3-4 employees servicing the numerous self-checkout lines, there are going to be challenges for the employees and more importantly the customer who not only have committed to given their finances, but their time as well. Sitting in lines to self check out for 30+ minutes is a horrible experience before dealing with any technical glitches that arise. The fact that there is no management presence to communicate with customers and staff speaks to the lack of leadership. I left the retail world a long-time ago, but profits and customer service go hand and hand. Get it together! read more

Generally a great store with lots of choices and mostly good staff. I did not care for the service I received at checkout. I like the fact that you can get gas here to cash in your points and that those points you just earned do show up on your card right away. read more

After months of contemplating writing a review, today's pitiful selection at the hot bar finally pushed me over the edge. The store is pretty good overall, but the hot bar is by far the worst of any Giant I've ever been to. Often times the food doesn't even match the posted schedule, and about half the time the food looks so bad I won't even touch it. Today I went in hoping for some fish and mac&cheese. Well, the "Tilapia" was burnt and dry, the remnants of the Mac and cheese looked like it had been sitting there since last night. Getting there at 11am, I would expect a full tray of fresh food, not the leftovers from yesterday. It was completely disgusting, and it's not unusual for me to walk out of there disappointed. Don't go here for a quick grab and go lunch. read more

It seriously pains me to be writing this update. I LOVED this Giant. Like, in an emotional way. And I still love that it's clean and has a lot of variety and great sale prices, so on and so forth and what have you. However, I'm sorry to say that I can no longer frequent this store due to its poor customer service. I don't know if they got a new manager or what, but in the past few months things there have gone seriously downhill. There are rarely people available to bag groceries, which in turn slows checkout lines while the cashier and customer both try to do it. More than once I've gotten in a line with a bagger only to have that person walk away after finishing up with a customer. In this same time period they have also gotten into the habit of stocking shelves during high traffic times - like Sunday's at 11. I get that items need to be on shelves, but I've seen them rearranging shelves during this time too - not necessary. It doesn't appear that they're just filling up on out of stock items - there are big carts and empty boxes in nearly every aisle at times. It causes so much traffic in the aisles and too many times you can't reach what you need. My biggest complaint is about the deli, though. One of my favorite things about this store is the ability to order your deli items from a kiosk, do all of your shopping, and then whip around and pick up your items - no need to grab a number and wait. This kiosk allows you to specify how you want your items sliced. I always choose Very Thin, and I used to get it. For several months now, however, my meat has been cut so thick that even my carnivore husband is grossed out by it. Yesterday I had enough and just left it there, going then to a different store for those items. I wish this store had maintained the high quality experience it had in the beginning, but unfortunately it hasn't and as a result, it's former biggest fan will be shopping elsewhere. read more

The new Giant is now firing on all cylinders. Giant has good prices, outstanding customer service and a broad selection. I have gone to the Giant in Springfield for a few years and am so happy to have this store a few blocks away. I paid $2.49 for gas last week with bonus points. You can't beat that! I don't wish anyone ill will but I will be happy to see Super fresh bite the big one with their understaffed and overpriced store. Giant gets it right. read more

Self check out employees = Terrible. I was trying to scan a barcode that was around the can and it wasn't picking up on the scanner. I asked the 3 (one of who was a manager) giant employees for help. None of them moved a muscle. After they were done their conversation the manager rudely asked if I needed help. I explained my situation . She said you have to hit Start. I told her I already did hit start. She went back to talking. It was just so rude. Unbelievably terrible customer service. Literally never going into that place again. read more

This review is exclusively for the bakery. (The rest of the grocery, produce/meat, etc are great!!) the bakery has terrible service. The people were nice enough. I ordered a cake 4 days ago. Was called the day of to be told they didn't have the flavor we ordered. Then went to pick it up & the name was spelled wrong (it was an online order so it was typed out correctly). The poor girl tried her best to fix it but it still looked terrible. Redeeming factor - I got 1/2 off for my terrible cake. Very disappointed. Will not order or recommend. read more

GIANT Food Store - Grocery Near Me - Havertown, Pennsylvania

Ok, here goes: I've accepted the fact that in 2018, employees are going to be chattering with each other or looking at their phones instead of paying attention to the customer in front of them. Got it, that's not just Giant, that's everywhere. But, to the people who work at Giant: is it too much to ask that after I've braved Delco traffic and navigated poorly designed parking lots to get to your store, that I and the groceries that I'm buying are treated with a little respect. Like, how about the cashier doesn't just keep the belt moving so that my fruit or my eggs get crushed by the canned soup and the milk. Or that you PRETEND that you're going to help me bag the groceries. Move an arm towards the bag so that it looks like you're contemplating it. Don't worry, I won't expect you to actually DO IT, but it would be nice to imagine, if only for a minute, that you might. And last, but not least, what about a thank you at the end of my order, as in, "thanks for shopping at Giant". Or "thank you for bagging your groceries". I spend hundreds of dollars at your store - literally - and a thank you for my business would not be out of line. read more
