This Target location opened on Parsonage Road sometime in the late nineties and has been a fixture in the local community ever since. Even though the building is visibly dated, it has most of the modern amenities found at newer Targets: aisle price scanners, self checkout, a small grocery section, a pharmacy, a cosmetics boutique, a Capital One ATM, and a recently renovated Starbucks and pizza snack bar area. If you're staying at the neighboring Homewood Suites which opened 3 years ago, this place is a 30 second walk away and great for procuring travel necessities like toiletries, snacks, and medications during and after your stay. Regarding messiness, this store attracts a lot of visitor traffic from Menlo Park Mall and Roosevelt Park on weekends, including people with children, so shelves and clothing racks will understandably be a little messy. Since this location is next to a townhouse complex and three nursing homes, inventory for popular items also tends to run low without real-time inventory levels being reflected on Target.com. One of my biggest complaints about this Target is the T-shaped bottleneck for exiting and entering the parking lot. You'll also find some of the worst drivers ever here as they confusedly or recklessly enter and leave without yielding when they don't have right of way. For a more pleasant shopping experience, try the Hadley Center Target. read more

This is not my first choice for a store location, but my friend and I were in the area and decided to stop in to pick up a few items. The staff: They do not help you here nor do they greet or thank you for coming in. They look at you and do not say anything at all. You cannot find a staff member to help you ever in the electronics department. I do not understand why they got rid of the "Need help" buttons so the staff will come to you. The store is not organized at all and is messy making it hard to find certain products in the store. The shelves are empty most of the time when I come here making me have to travel to another store location the same day to purchase what I need. Overall: I always go to the other location in South Plainfield since it is more organized even if it isn't close to where I live. This store needs better management with their organization, and they need to work on their customer service. read more

The service at Target in Menlo is hit or miss. Sometimes I have a great experience with an employee, and other times not so much. Usually check out is always pleasant. I haven't had any problems in my past two visits. The store is relatively clean (sometimes the bathroom can be downright disgusting but the sales floor is usually nice). One thing I will say is the employees keep the shelves well stocked and very neat. This past week I went on a Friday and Saturday and it didn't have that disheveled weekend look that most stores (understandably) get, so that's really impressive. I love the baby/toddler section. There is a nice selection and it is usually very neat. My other favorite department to shop is the haircare section, they have so many options, especially for people with coily, curly and wavy hair which can be hard to find in the regular supermarkets and pharmacy stores. I am talking vast selection, and sometimes they have good deals (I bought 4 haircare items today and received a $5 gift card for the next time I shop!). We often buy diapers from here as well as it is much cheaper than most stores and online retailers! There is usually a coupon for pampers if you have the app, which a checkout girl told me about during one of my trips there, she saved my $3 that day, and a lot of money since! 4/5 read more

I got very bad experience today in Target store at 100 Personage RD I bought Pomogranate last week when I cut them these were rotten I took a picture n showed them today in customer service they behaved so badly with me I showed the pictures they were saying we want to see the rotten product, how u will keep the rotten fruit at home n carry with u next morning to the store. They refused to give me my refund read more

I really like this location and it's layout. This Target is very big and spacious. Items are usually well stocked here. I also really like their bullseye section, it's always well stocked and they have a lot of cute items available. read more

This is my first time to this location and I must say I was very unimpressed. I was trying to find a specific item and I went to press the help button for an attendant to help me, as soon as I pressed the button this Target employee walks right by and turns his notifications beeps off. Like at first I thought maybe he didn't see me standing right next to him so I rang it again and another employee walked right by me. I flagged down the 3rd employee and he actually told me what aisle I could possibly find a graduation gift. The service was 0/5 since it was hard to find someone to help me, the selection of items was ok even though I didn't get what I came for, the only star I could give this place was it was clean. read more

Have visited this target location over the last several years and i can definitely say this is one of the cleanest target locations i've come across. The staff is super helpful and all covid protocols are followed. Apart a wide variety of sections and sku's, they have a starbucks, pizza hut and cvs inside. The parking lot is huge and is right opposite menlo park mall. read more

I feel like they could give a sh**t about theif customers. I came in trying to return something that was really expensive, it wasn't used and still in the box. I didn't have a receipt, but I had my ID, and the card I used to pay with it. They were not helpful. I ended up leaving without them being able to return or provide a store credit. Pretty upset! read more

Came in to purchase a cusinart food processor. Did my research before I arrive and found it cheaper online. Target happily price matched the one food processor for me as long as that item was still in stock online and had the same item # from the website. The customer service was excellent. I happen to see the manager on the floor and she was able to open a register to assist me with my purchase. Dont forget to join Targets new membership program where you can earn cash back on purchases. Downloading the app also is super helpful. I was able to load all my gift cards on the app so I dont have to bulk up my wallet. read more

Happy Saturday fellow Adventurers! I stopped in here over the past week and found that they only the self-checkout open. I understand that it was during a snowy evening and people may have called out but it was a little comical to have over 20 people online. I even stopped in the night after and they had 1 checkout line open plus the self-checkout​, again the line was miles long. I asked the cashier and he stated that they were just shorthanded​, but dear lord that a little ridiculous with so many people online and just a register open. Store wise its a franchise so you see the same thing in each store. I like their makeup area now it's more boutique-like and open. The only thing is that I'm sad they got rid of the Merona​ brand because they had a lot of​ basic​ items that were nice. The brand Any Day Now is really nice but again higher priced now that they offer exclusive​ small brands. I guess I'm not a Target person anymore​ because of the big wait and self-checkout. read more

Their grocery prices leave me shell shocked but Target exists so that I never have to go to Walmart ever again. The store is bright, well stocked and doesn't have merchandising disasters clogging every aisle. Sure, your credit card information gets hacked every few months but isn't that a small price to pay to avoid the scrum at Walmart. read more

So you know the commercial target run and done? Well, holy s**t, place your order on the app, click I'm on my way when it's ready, usually less than an hour later, head to target. Park, and almost instantly, they come out with your order, all nicely packaged and bagged. In your trunk it goes. Totally shopping time, less than a minute, topped with a nice smile and extremely courteous staff. Best service ever! They might now have all the things in stock all the time, but since it's so convenient and no minimum, I just check a day or so later and make another quick run. read more

When I first moved to New Jersey, I thought it was amazing that I would have a Target near me in Linden, NJ. Unfortunately, over the years the Linden Target has slowly crumbled into a shadow of its former self, and in recent months I have found myself gravitating more and more towards this location. The Menlo Park Target is not only larger than its Linden counterpart, but it has also been recently renovated to the new Target standard. The exterior has wood paneling with a bright Target logo set over it. Inside there are the familiar red and white elements of a Target, but the store has been rearranged with large open displays leading to smaller aisles than before. This is not necessarily a bad thing. The open areas allow for more free flowing movement and traffic. Even better, areas like the clothing section and home goods have had enhanced, brighter lighting added making the store look more welcoming and clean. The section of the store that has changed the least is the grocery section, which is still made up of more traditionally sized aisles - and that's a good thing. Pushing the pretty renovations aside, this Target is generally well stocked with what I need and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. They also have more than two cashiers working at any given time which helps make check out far more efficient. Also a shout out to the Starbucks towards the front where they make a good Chai Latte. If you're in this general area and you want to hit up a Target, definitely go to this one! read more

Good Target location. Well stocked and organized. Stopped inside a few weekends ago when in the area, and would return again. Good grocery area also. Recommended! read more

Target is clean. Customer service is pretty good. My only issue here is that sometimes they don't have anything in stock. I always find myself going to the one in Clark or Linden. :( Park on the left side.. For some reason there is more parking in the front read more

If I'm not mistaken, my Target order was shipped from this location. I ordered dish soap and some other items, including cans of food. I can't believe how little care is taken when they ship items. When I received my package, the soap had clearly leaked right through the box. So much so, that the post office felt the need to wrap the box in clear plastic. Needless to say, I told Target that my items arrived damaged. They graciously sent me a new package at no extra cost, however, same thing happened. Target: PLEASE EDUCATE your team on how to package items! Perhaps take a lesson from other retailers who ship items and not make the mess you make. There was nothing in the second box (also a soapy mess) that protected the soap from being damaged - tape and a plastic bag don't cut it. This was a new low. read more

I posted a review in 2016 here, and pointed out that shelf prices don't always match the scanners at check out. I tend to avoid this store for this reason. Many recent reviews here are very positive, with no mention of this issue. Well, I was in this store yesterday, and noticed market pantry dijon mustard-shelf price .99, when I checked the scanned price, guess what, it scanned $1.49. I can't be the only one who is bothered by this, or the only one who is even aware this practicing continues. Like their motto "expect more" yes I do expect more, and I don't get it, unless this refers to "more" as in deceptively higher prices read more

DO NOT PURCHASE ITEMS OF HIGH VALUE AT THIS LOCATION!!! They don't care if it's inside the box, outside the box or defective. They DO NOT honor their own return/exchange policy, and it depends entirely on how you appear. They force exchanges for like branded items. Customer care in this location is non-existent, and judgmental. Choose another location. read more

Lazy workers, worker proceeded to walk around the electronics area on phone laughing as me and one other man were waiting on line ignoring us completely then leans against the register area not paying any mind to us. Happened around 4:25pm October 17th wouldn't recommend if you don't have 30 minutes to wait for workers. read more

I come here mostly during the day on lunch hour, so I have no idea what this place is like on the weekends or at night. During the day, it is pretty busy. The parking lot is very large. Associates at the customer service counter are always friendly and helpful. There is one associate at the desk in particular who is really friendly and pleasant, but I can't remember her name! The store itself is a disaster. Messy and unorganized. Shelves never seem to be fully stocked. Registers are rarely ever open during the day with the exception of self-checkout. read more

Not a fan of the tech department. We're a bit rude when we were asking questions about a lightning to lightning cord.

Visited this location at 9am today to grab some supplies and was pleasantly surprised by the very high lvl of customer service by your staff that i came across in the food aisles. I appreciate the help and kindness from you guys. Target beats walmart in organization / customer service / cleanliness read more

This Target is very easy to get to, especially if you live in Metuchen because you can just take back roads. Parking lot is huge, plenty of spaces. The layout of the store is different from other Targets I have been to so I am not sure if I am having trouble navigating, because it is new or because it makes no sense. The self-checkout needs more registers. Other than that, it is your typical Target. read more

Been going here for over 2 years. Good selection of products. Cheap deals. Most of the employees are helpful though I did notice two new employees who seemed to be a couple and pointed me into the wrong direction. (Could have been fired or changed their ways since I was last there). Should be better management on employees to look out for such circumstances, lol. I won't complain much about it though. However, overall most employees there know where stuff is and point me to or walk me to the area of which I need a product really quickly. read more

This store deserves no stars because of there shitty manager SAM . She should not be a team leader. She had no self control or holiday kindness. I went to Target Menlo to get some last minute items. I needed a tree topper but there were none that I liked except for a display. Three target associates (who get all the kudos) went out of there way to help me because the one tree topper I wanted was attached to the three other displays. I was told by two of the associates that the store was allowed to sell all last minute Christmas related items because said items get thrown out. I was willing to pay for an entire display of four to get the one. I took my large display of four trees toppers to customer service to purchase but bitchy Scrooge SAM was nasty and rude and basically said that targets policy was to not sell the displays because they were of no value..but they were valuable to me and I was willing to pay..SAM should not be in customer service. read more

Love this store! I find this particular location to be clean, organized, and to have a decent inventory. What really prompted me to write this review is how every time I use the self-checkout, there is always a customer service representative standing by eager to greet and assist you. On multiple occasions, I have found the customer service to exceed other Targets I've been to; because each time I forget how to scan my rewards from my phone - an employee is always excited to help me and very kind while doing so. It really is the little things and it's wonderful how an ounce of kindness can improve someone's entire day. read more

This location is perfect for anyone who needs to stop here after paying a visit to Menlo Park Mall, as it's across from it. This store is clean, and the layout is pretty much the same as the one in Union, NJ. I had to pick up some discounted grocery items while I was here. The employees here were nice. If I'm ever in the area again, and need to buy more items at a sale price, then I'll definitely be back! read more

They have done a lot of remodeling on this Target in the last few months. It is very modern looking now, with more self checkout lanes and a larger, more open feel around the checkout area. I like coming here, but the parking lot can be a little tricky. Also beware that the mall is right across the street, so Parsonage Road tends to back up with mall goers. read more

This may be the BEST target in NJ. I just love it because it opens sooo damn early. 8AM. Craziness! Im still asleep at that time and people can get their shopping done. They even have a little cafe shop that sells breakfast meals like hashbrowns with coffee. They have pizza hut here as well as hotdogs during lunch time. This target is sooo clean, I would take a shower in their bathroom if they had a shower stall in there ;) The staff are super helpful, especially the girls in the pharmacy department! The place is soo organized, I also find the stuff I need. They sell a wide variety of things, from clothing, food, electronics, etc! read more

Very clean and well stocked Target. Love their shoe and makeup section. read more

Conveniently large Target located in front of a mall. We have been enjoying getting large plastic boxes, groceries such as the unsalted roasted jumbo cashews from Archer farms, and toddler items such as the Playtex cups with a straw...with 5% discount thanks to the red card. It is easy and free to park. read more

I usually don't like target not a fan, BUT.. I love the one in edison on parsonage road. It is by far my favorite one. No matter how busy it gets you don't feel claustrophobic in the aisles or feel like ur going to get run over. The shelves are always well stocked. They have a wide selection of clothing, food and other things you didn't realize you needed. The prices vary of course but usually pretty decent on average. Not too high and a few cents difference elsewhere. The employees are pleasant and so are cashiers. The lines are quick and usually have more than one cashier at a time which is nice. Definitely worth a trip to this target. read more

CAme here to pick up a few things . Ended up spending $160 of course go figure . It's target - how could you not shop for things you don't need . Target is very difficult to go into and walk out with one item . Anyways came in to buy a dress and bathing suit ended up walking out with a few dresses .went to self checkout . The self checkout at the far end of the store by the cards and office supplies was closed. The only self checkout that was open was by the main entrance . The line was long and so were the other lines( regular cashier lines ) this was a bit frustrating I won't lie . When I got to check out finally I tried to get the get$10 off $50 off clothes promotion they had in store . I texted the code as listed in the clothing area however it didn't work and I didn't get the code . I asked the guy at the checkout and he said I'm sorry it doesn't work . I wasn't too satisfied with his answer so after I paid I went to guest services and a really nice lady was able to give us a coupon and refund us $10.00. Great customer service. One thing I do wish they can do is look up your target card- I forgot to bring it. Other then that I love this target it always has everything you need and more.( must be right since you go in for on item and walk out with 8-10?) :) read more

This target does not seem to be as busy as other targets on weekends. It is nearby the menlo mall making errands extra easy.

In addition to this Target being the most filthy location I've ever seen (see photos), some of the team members are extremely disrespectful to the customers (Cathryn & Sheila). The store closed at 11pm and at 9:20pm, Cathryn told a family in the middle of their transaction that they had to leave the self checkout kiosk because she's closing it. Sheila at least told the next customer that self checkout was closed before he began checking out. But when he asked why the lights above the kiosks weren't turned off, she responded saying, "Can I get a chance to turn off the lights?" It was odd. Both of the girls were angry when customers tried to do a self checkout yet they decided to chit chat with each other instead of simply turning off the lights. It's safe to say that I won't be returning. read more

This Target has everything and love the 2 separate entrances. I have shopped at Target for years now and use this one and the one in Holmdel/Middletown. I buy kids clothes/ laundry supplies/toilet paper/paper towels/even Fixodent for Mom. I have the red card now which provides me with 5% off my total.. love that option. read more

Tried to buy items for baby shower registries and there are no kiosks. The customer service rep asked her manager to print them out which took forever so we decided to leave. It's silly to have registries if they're not easily accessible. We'll try another target and if not we'll order online. read more
