STILLLLLLLL my favorite super market chain by far…read more We're frequenters of the Stew Leonard's in Paramus and have probably been there more times than we can count. We decided to drop by this relatively new location on a random Saturday in Clifton since we were nearby ... and it's safe to say that this one is as good as any. On the day that we went, samples were being given out everywhere we turned. We couldn't avoid a sample station if we tried! There were so many samples that my wife and I wondered why we even had lunch prior as we could have had a WHOLE MEAL there! Anyhow, having been open for about a year (as of May 2025), this Stew Leonard's is as brand spankin' new as it gets. Like the Stew's in Paramus, I love how everything is so neat and organized. In addition, I love that they lead you through their supermarket with a one way pathway instead of it being like the wild west like other supermarkets. If you've been to a Stew's, they have all of your favorites here - including the ever so aromatic bakery section which always smells like deliciously soft and fresh donuts. If you're craving cooked foods on the fly, there is also a buffet, made to order pizza and sushi. The major highlight here for most people, especially kids (and myself), is the ICE CREAM PARLOR near the entrance. There, you will find some of the best soft serve ice cream your tastebuds ever had - in many flavors I might add. I did have a few gripes, but they were mostly minor. First, the dining area for those who want to grab a seat to eat at was a bit on the tiny side with just a few tables. Also, the curb of the supermarket outside was also small. The moment you walk out of the supermarket you're literally on the road, so you've got to hold onto those kids to prevent them from getting run over. If you've never been to a Stew's you're in for a real treat because you'll probably want to buy everything. If you've frequented a Stew's before, then everything you've come to know and love about Stew's can be found right here in Clifton.

Ordered: Hot Buttered Lobster Roll (~$16): with garlic…read morebutter and Old Bay seasoning Small Vanilla Yogurt Cone (~$4) Aya's take: Although Stew Leonard's is a grocery store, coming here never feels like a chore and since I've been seeing tons of buzz for their Hot Buttered Lobster Roll, I decided to try it out. It's in the seafood section as you make your way through the aisles, and it was actually made fresh. The roll was warm, buttery, and pillowy. The lobster wasn't the freshest honestly, the texture was slightly off for some bites, and portion-wise, it's definitely less than the posts were showing on social media. The roll itself is smaller than your average but it's still not bad for ~$16. I wish they added a pickle or side of chips/fries with it to make it a better deal. We ended with a Small Vanilla Yogurt Cone which surprisingly blew me away! It didn't have that tart taste you would expect with vanilla yogurt at all. It was so creamy, rich, with just the right amount of sweetness. Love coming here!

The selection is fantastic (I always stumble upon a new beer or wine I never encountered before)…read more The prices are solid. But... Most of the workers are a bit standoffish. The location of this store (if you know Clifton Commons you know how popular it is and this 'intoxication station' is right by a really crazy 'intersection' with a 4-way-stop working on the honor system which never pans out all that well) is rough. So there's definitely some pros and cons but if you can get there early enough you can sidestep some of the headaches. (And there's a massive Corona beer-shaped piñata behind the counter that one day I hope to own for a future party.)

This past weekend, I was in a rush and wanted to pick up a bottle of Japanese whiskey and stopped at my local spot Mason Cellar, which had none and said they might not for some time since they sell out so quickly. Not wanting to show up at a party empty handed, I opted to be a few minutes late and head to Shoppers. Low and behold, not only did they have the bottle I wanted, but three other bottles I never even tried before. Last but not least, they actually have pretty good pricing as well. Lot of times beating out their competition right down the street at Clifton Commons.

Broad liquors is owned by small business owners who always greet you with a smile. Overall, an excellent liquor store! Highly recommended!!

My first experience with Total Wines was over in West Orange…read more Then I started to cheat on West Orange with their River Edge location. Now, once again, I find myself straying... sorry River Edge but Totowa's making me weak in the knees. Lots of aisles. Lots of product on those shelves. Lots of space between the rows so you and your fellow shoppers aren't at risk of bumping into each other with your carts. If you've been to a Total Wines before - you know how it goes... they're usually the size of an old Toys R Us but aimed at adults looking to waste, I mean spend, money on booze (or cigars, which seem to have a serious fanbase the few times I've been here). I've found some new/unique imported beers as well as a few interesting organic wines at this location that I never saw at their other stores. [Every Total Wines location is a bit of a drive for me but worth the mileage.]

They're usually fully stocked on whatever I need but today they weren't :( ... but it wasn't a big deal because I found alternatives since they have such a wide selection.

Parking is never an issue either since they have a large lot they share with Starbucks.
