If you've been to any Giant supermarkets before, you generally know what to expect here. This store…read moreis clean, has a decent selection, and while some items could use a more frequent restock, no real complaints. I really have to hand it to them on service though- the Giant couponing and discount systems can be tricky, and sometimes I'll just confuse brands because of similar coloring or design. The endless patience of the checkout and information desk staff with my many dumb mistakes is really noteworthy. They're crisp and efficient, and more than willing to humor me in my attempts to save a dollar. Also, there's a CVS nearby, and this Giant stocks nearly everything they have at significantly lower prices. With an easy self-checkout, if you're in the area and need a quick (or not so quick) grocery or household goods pickup, Giant is your best option.

This location is very spacious and offers a wide range of items, including pre-cooked meals,…read moreflowers, fresh baked goods, hot bar, and produce. While some items, especially the ready-to-cook meals, are on the pricier side, you can still find great deals with their private-label products. I really enjoyed the alcohol selection. They carry everything from casual everyday wines to reasonably priced bottles that are actually quite good. The section is well organized, which makes it easy to browse. They also have hard liquor and beer, so most people will be able to find what they are looking for. Another big plus is the number of self-checkout stations, so I did not have to wait in line. The parking lot can be a bit confusing and chaotic depending on the time of day, so keep that in mind. Do not forget to get your parking validated before leaving the store.

Folks working there engage with customers and ask if you need anything. Very well organized and nice layout. They sell actual booze, like vodka, tequila. Not in VA, lol. Only problem, if you misplaced your parking pass, which is free for first 2 hours, then you gotta pay. I could not find my ticket to validate, so I had to pay. Sucks. In VA, you can park all day. I used to go to Wegmans after work, get a meal and study for hours. Not here. Gotta pay to park. I think they ought to revise the parking situation.

I'm currently on a spiritual quest to find the best grocery store rotisserie chicken in the world,…read morewhich I have dubbed "Chicken Wars." Next up is Harris Teeter in DC, and a whole tissi ran $7.99. It ended up landing at 7.9/10, which currently ranks it 15th out of 40 grocery store birds I've currently tried. I ate this one in front of the White House which was pretty cool, although I had the yips when I was recording the video due to the sheer amount of people around. I did that to myself though so no complaints. I'm working on a website for the rankings to live, so stay tuned on that. LOVE YALL! IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

This has a few aisles, and there's not much room to get through. It makes it feel crowded even though it might be empty. The prices here are pretty good. Fresh produce much fresher than at a typical chain. There's some very fresh stuff. I like this location because of the area. It's close to a Metro station. There's a plaza across the street that has some seats and tables.

The company has not been as great since Giant got sold off to a conglomerate from overseas. Having said all that, this giant is pretty good. It has everything you need.

If you've been in one Trader Joe's in your lifetime, you know the layout is pretty much the same…read more However, this is one of the largest of the few in the area I was in, which was on Wisconsin Ave. What sets this apart from where I live in Maryland is the fact that in Maryland you cannot buy wine in grocery stores or places such as Trader Joe's and on top of that the wine/liquor prices in Maryland are outrageous. Therefore, for that moment I felt like I was in heaven when I stopped in and saw the wine selections, my heart was happy, I felt like I was back home in Seattle, WA, and for those of you who have never been to Washington State, one thing you need to know is this, you can buy beer, wine and liquor very late at any grocery store, 7-11, gas stations and/mom & pop stores in and outiside of the city and that's why I was so happy to see Trader Joe's in DC had the option to shop for both groceries libations (wine). The staff members are always happy to help you find items, and customer service is always great, in my opinion. I love me some Trader Joe's, even if I'm not able to purchase wine at my local Trader Joe's, or not is still my favorite place to shop for my groceries since I eat the same thing I already know how much I'm going to spend on griceries. and I will take the drive. However, now I will make the drive to DC to do both when I can. After all, I'm a road warrior. Again, this is just my opinion and experiences. Love U!

I have been to other locations where there was a lack of friendliness and efficiency, and these qualities really make the difference. Trader Joe's also still manages to have reasonable prices in DC which I appreciate. Lastly, they have free parking which is always a bonus.

I was hoping to pick-up one of their prepared Italian deli sandwiches, but they were out of those. I asked the lady who was working in the deli but she wasnt too helpful either. Instead I got one of their prepared chef salads. Since I was already in the produce section, I also picked-up a bushel of bananas, and a bag of oranges. Finally, I needed to get a gallon of reduced fat milk, and a couple of frozen Amy's Bowls frozen dinners, which should carry me through the rest of the week.

No it isn't whole foods but that's ok, it's convenient, easy to park and if you use self checkout it's a breeze. Negative: I can't figure out how to get the discounts consistently. One time it's called "clip" the deal, another it's called something else. They should work on this app since getting ANY discount is helpful.

The only thing that would make Avenue better is a more diverse selection--it's missing some basics like nuts and tofu and fresh herbs (besides cilantro and parsley). If those gaps were filled this would be my regular grocery store!

Badia spices galore! This markets address is actually at 5010 New Hampshire Ave. The dry cleaners are next door and a liquor store is next door as well. You can also purchase beer and wine at the market. Limited amount of "health food" items, but you'll find soy, almond and coconut milk in frig. If your looking for ice cream, the selection is pretty limited. But if you're srsly jonesin' , you'll find something in the way of Breyers, Turkey Hill, Greens, and a random "premium" pint here and there.
