They have nearly everything including fresh meals to go, gourmet coffee and tea, grocery items, beer and wine, HUGE selection of gluten free items, as well as isles packed with crafts, local goods, meat, etc etc. Very impressed.

While I am sad the other Shaw's on Railroad Avenue is gone, I'm glad I work at the one over in East Gloucester, as it's just more easier for me. The service is pretty good as well.

Right by the train station, convenient in that respect for me. Obviously, Shaw's supermarkets are…read moremore expensive than others because places like Market Basket always have the lowest price. This location, however, is convenient for any kind of traveler, whereas the Market Basket is along 128 and therefore inaccessible to a bike rider like myself. You can also find some very good prices on things if you watch for sales Their produce has not let me down yet, which is a great concern to me in terms of going somewhere to shop, and the cashiers are very efficient, even with long lines. Not all of their staff always seems like the most pleasant sorts, but then again, I go there either early morning or late night. Can't blame 'em. Definitely try and check prices in the weekly flyers before you go there. But otherwise, you're ultimately not too bad off.

Service is great, their specials and loyalty app make them affordable and their FRESH PASS is the best anywhere...we get free delivery always, extra Rewards and all kinds of other benefits for $13 a month. Whenever I have had any issues of any kind with Fresh Pass, I just call Becky or Bobette and they fix everything! Today we were blown away to find the groceries delivered by Mike at the Railroad Avenue location, expertly before 8am even though my husband had not shoveled the snow off our steps yet. He and Ilda and Autumn got all of our groceries wrapped with love and care, making sure the meat was wrapped so as not to leak, and just making us feel like the only customers in the world. We will not buy our groceries anywhere else.

I got the eggplant special, adding hots as one does, on a roll. My boyfriend got the chicken St. Joseph as a sub. Both were delicious. The eggplant was thin and crisp and the sandwich was flavorful. I almost couldn't finish it. Virgilio's is tiny, but also has a great selection of Italian cooking essentials. Olives, pasta, tomatoes, wine, etc. Which is nice so you don't need to always run to a bigger store. The cannoli looked great and so did the pizza--I'm hoping to try on a return visit. Staff was friendly. There are two tiny tables outside, so this is really a takeout shop. I highly recommend visiting.

They barely had any of the seafood advertised, and even when deciding what to order, they referred me to a menu that they actually could not offer. On the brink of hangriness, I ordered the fish tacos with haddock because there were no other options, and there was barely any fish in the tacos. I wish they had been honest that they did not have what I was looking for. MOST memorable was when the waiter profiled me and decided to go on a fanatical rant for about fifteen minutes, as to why I should read the New Testament and accept Christ. The owner witnessed this interaction and my obvious immense discomfort, and didn't do a thing. Oh, and the tostones said they came with an aioli/sauce and they gave me ketchup. Honestly upset that I paid for any of this.
