I have lived in st james my whole life. We love King Kullen in ST JAMES. My wife and I do most of our shopping there scince the 1970's . We love the staff and the selection of products and services, read more

As a quick go to they're fine. But their produce is scanty and not that good. Their prices are much higher than Stop n Shop. Manager etc. are great. It's just the prices. read more

Workers come off rude and stereotypical. Probably just the area. Prices are unreasonably high. Can probably get a much better deal at a stop and shop or shop rite, but the only plus I'd give these guys is that the location and how conveniently close by it is. Whole store needs a revamping and it makes me miss the old waldbaum's in lake grove. read more

It is Sunday 6:37 the lady at number 8 was absolutely rude she was giving me rude looks she had talked in very rude tones to me and my friends she kept sighing and rolling her eyes at us and I had to ask her twice to give us our money back cause we were leaving read more

This is our neighborhood store. When you're in your nineties it's convenient but time after time they are disappointing. Today at eleven am we went to the store to buy Chicken Drumsticks-none available. So we ended up at Aldi less than a half mile away and bought drumsticks. The other day I was looking for lamb chops. I was told that they don't have an in house butcher so none available. Checkout people and office people are nice. That's it. read more

For some reason the Entemann's Rich Frosted junior chocolate donuts always taste the best and freshest from the St. James King Kullen. Those donuts are fantastic. Wow. I won't buy anywhere else but there. read more

King Kullen is a great supermarket. They have a nice selection of things. I used to shop exclusively here but then i loves and discovered that certain other stores had nicer produce and better prices on some things. Still this is a well laid out store. It is a bit smaller than other supermarkets but still has a nice selection of products. The people working there are usually very friendly and the people who shop there Usually friendly too. It is in a convenient location right on lake ave in st James. Very good store but like i mentioned earlier there are stores nearby that have bigger selections and better prices. read more

King Kullen - Grocery Near Me - Saint James, New York

My husband and I shopped there yesterday and were happy with our purchases and interaction with other shoppers. then the friendly atmosphere ended at he checkout. The cashier was out of control!, He rearranged the items as we emptied our cart all the while mumbling. He then threw a coin at me which would have eased change back . Then left his area walked around in circles stomped back and put out his hand so I gave him back the quarter. He then gave me my change roughly placing it in my hand and growled "I didn't want the quarter". Like the store but will never allow myself to be abused by him again. read more

A throwback to another era except service is 2020, which means if an employee even acknowledges you, you are lucky to get a grunt from them. My cashier had neither a hello or goodbye for me. Prices are higher, too. read more

wow! I'm Surprised to see the other negative reviews! this is a good store! yes, it may be just slightly more expensive than the stop n shop by my house...but..it is smaller, and the parking lot is much more inviting, and their selection is a little less but I can get just about everything I need. check out is usually fast, bakery and deli service are quick, they have beautiful plants too. It is quicker to get thru than the giant stores! And, it's a family owned store, local to Long Island. support your local community! convenient and fits the bill. what more can we ask.... read more

Theres an old saying, "you cant put lipstick on a pig." Thats exactly what they did but sorry, their prices are still high, the kids couldn't give a crap about working and its not the cleanest place to go. I've tried speaking to the produce stockers about rotted things I've found and I get the, "yup" answer. After an hour of weaving around displays and other customers that are obscenely rude, you will go back and see the guys are gone but the rotten item is still there. Tells me they have no pride. I've lived in SJ for 25 years, I've shopped there maybe 20 times with most just for milk. Its a two minute walk for me but I'd rather have Peapod deliver or go 4 mile drive to ShopRite. Oh well! read more

Love this store, local and friendly local staff, easy to navigate parking lot, they have what I need and great sales. Yummy seafood salad! Very clean and well-maintained. I remember when it was Blue Jay Markets, and I hope they remain for many years. Thank you for being part of St. James. read more

What can you say other then it's King Kullen. If you want to shop in the 1980s this is perfect for you. A complete drab doll boring store and if you ever get out of New York and see what a real supermarket looks like go to Wegmans. The chocolate cigar is priced very well the only problem is it doesn't taste like chocolate it taste like sugar and it's a complete waste of even the little money they charge. I would rather spend a dollar more and get some good chocolate in there and make them a little bigger and you could have something tasty not this junk. Overall the staff is nice though the supermarket is just old, boring and small. read more

The staff is not very professional. I've seen a physical fight between two workers in the bread aisle, which was broken up by customers, not other staff. Another example, I called to order catering and the woman who answered the phone told me to hold on, while she had a non-work related conversation with a co-worker. Also, the prices are on the higher side. All that being said, I do stop there a couple of times a week because it is so convenient. I do not recommend it for a weekly grocery trip, but it fills the need if you have to pick up something for dinner that night. read more

Best grocery store I have ever been to, it has a great selection of everything and the people are very nice and helpful

I used to come to this supermarket regularly. But now I shop at Trader Joe's because I feel like there food is fresher. King Kullen is severely outdated, it's an old time kind of restaurant. The place definitely needs a facelift. The staff there is alright most of them are pleasant to deal with. They have a kiosk for the deli section which is convenient you can enter your order and shop for your other groceries. They make an announcement when your order is ready. I only go to King Kullen to grab little things I need for dinner and nothing else! read more

king kullen does the trick when you are short on time and need to pick up what you need and get out.....prices aren't the best---but it is not outrageous .... they always have enough carts for shopping...the man who stocks them is always on top of things.....one problem is one of the cashiers.....believe his name is Philip.....if you notice NOBODY goes on his line......if you want someone who is rude-and throws your groceries around then he is your guy........ read more

The staff is helpful and very friendly and the store manager has ordered particular items that they weren't carrying. The store is smaller than most and, while most people prefer gigantic stores, I don't. The selection is fine here and I don't like walking a marathon to shop. I live in Kings Park and come here for specific items because they're so much better than Stop & Shop in Smithtown and the crappy grocery store in KP. I like their quiche and most bakery items. The pies are significantly better than those in Stop & Shop. One issue I have, which I have with all mainstream grocery stores is the lack of organic produce. Hopefully that will change as more people become aware of how toxic pesticides are. read more

Prices are sometimes a little higher than the neighborhood Stop and Shop, but I still make regular visits to this store. Very convenient location for me and the workers are very helpful and friendly! read more

Quaint and small, I love this venue. Overpriced? Maybe. A local mart to go in search of a handful of items? Perfection!!!

A nice store for our little town. Often see elderly folks who have walked there or arrived in a taxi...this would not be possible for them if "the King" were not in their neighborhood. Ditto for young mothers walking babies in prams, and teens on bikes. I've always observed the staff to be friendly and helpful. I have had occasion to ask a cashier about an unusual item such as an exotic seasoning; if it is not in the store, next time I shop I find it has appeared without my even requesting it. On one occasion I was glad to see a young male employee politely eject a noisy couple who had evidently been drinking. So the "fight" mentioned in a previous letter seems odd; ask whether the men involved were drivers bringing deliveries to that department, rather than regular store employees, who are usually alert and protective of customers' safety. read more

This supermarket is only good if you need a few items and you cannot get to a Whole foods or Stop and Shop. Their meat section is lacking and the store rarely has sales. Needs an overhaul. read more

This is a small KK which is what I like but the store is dirty, prices are high since it is in a upscale area, limited in products, deli has long haired, smart mouth young clerks, the manager is rarely there, he is usually found outside smoking along with other clerks. So I am very selective of what I buy. Much better in Ronkonkoma and Commack. read more

food is always expired. the cashiers are very rude everytime I go to this king kullen the cashiers are gossiping amongst themselves and not paying any attention to the person they are checking out. one time I waited at least a full minute while the cashier held my change and receipt in her hand while talking about a party she went to with her coworker. It was like she forgot I was there. This happens all the time read more
