ACME seems to be part of the Safeway Brand, so yes, their prices have gone up. But with only two grocery stores in OC, it is worth to shop here and save the drive up 26 streets to the Food Lion. My other grocery store I tend to go while in OC, is Harris Teeter, in Selbyville, DE (about 20 -25 minute drive), This store is like a mini-Safeway (has all of your basic needs for grocery store), has a salad bar, deli section for meats, fried food station (for fried chicken, etc.), donuts, decent size produce section, etc. At first I thought this was a hardware store, not to be confused with ACE! read more

It's at the Beach! Normal! Full range of products that grocery stores have! Especially a variety of snacks and beach goodies! Produce section looked good as well as the meat section. Only 1 cashier so if you're not a self checkout person the wait can be annoying, Especially if someone has a full order! read more

Extremely disappointed with our experience. We ordered a cookie cake for my friend's birthday and were told it would be ready for pickup on July 26 between 4:00 and 5:00 PM. Instead of having our order ready, we received a text at 4:05 PM saying our order was canceled--after the pickup window had already started. Canceling an order at the last minute with no notice, especially for a birthday, is unacceptable. By that point, it was too late to easily make other arrangements. If there was an issue with the order, we should have been notified much earlier. Very frustrating experience, and NOT a business we would trust for special occasions again. read more

This Acme grocery store in Ocean City is so wonderful. The prices are very reasonable, the prepared foods are very yummy- we tried their kale super food salad, tuna salad, cut up large watermelon platter and fried chicken for picnics at the beach two different days. Everyone who helped us, from the deli prepared food staff, to the cashier, to the manager who was so kind helping us with a price, was so kind and thoughtful. It felt like going to a neighborhood grocery store from when I was in a kid. Come here for your Ocean City grocery needs! You won't regret it. read more

ACME Markets - The loveliest grocery store, yummy prepared foods, and the nicest staff in all of Del-Mar-Va! - Grocery Near Me - Ocean City, Maryland

Purchase one of the Roasted Chicken Pieces. Got I home they were old chicken that was overly cooked and very dry. How can food sit out for hours upon hours be sold to your customers. Maybe the food inspector should be notified. Who ever is the store manager should be fired. read more

Hands down the best market in ocean city for everything. Best prices, clean store, great selection of items, and great staff.

We stopped here to stock up on food for the week while we were visiting and I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the store and much higher prices than the ACME we have back home. Outside of store look dated and needs a refresh. Inside the store seemed like it good use a good scrubbing as well. The other thing I noticed is I did not see that many employees, where was everybody? Might try Food lion next time. read more

I was so happy to find this ACME that had regular ACME prices and not touristy prices. It gets crowded fast, but they have sales, you can use your ACME card and they also have stuff for the beach. These employees are the nicest I've ever come across in ACME. Just welcoming! I felt like my money was valued. read more

Arrived in Ocean City and for breakfast we wanted to continue with healthy fruit breakfasts so looked for a full supermarket. From our location in OC at 17th Street, the closest full supermarket was on 94th street. Good lay out and at least 2-3 others like us wearing face masks (no one in OC seem to wear except staff at this supermarket). Got our fruits, snacks and water. Quick in and out. You have to bag yourself so be aware. read more

See all

Fresh items from bakery and fruits. Like early hours opened. Friendly employees. Check out was easy. read more

Stay a hidden gem please. We love coming here to ACME. Find what I need, hit less people with my cart cuz they're all at Food Lion, no hassle. Some of the red peppers had squishy holes in them so I had to buy the more expensive 4 pack of peppers. Otherwise, I'm a fan. (And parking is endless). read more

Everything I need from groceries to prepare meals to a last minute ingredient that I forgot. The employees are friendly and courteous. Best fried chicken in Ocean City and the best deal on Monday's. Oh, and you don't need membership to get the savings. Did you know the same folks own Safeway? read more

Pretty decent supermarket. Pretty clean, nice staff, decent selection, and affordable prices. I love the selection of produce and the deli. Nice layout too. read more

It's got the basics that you'd expect in most modern supermarkets though it isn't huge. You'll also pay a bit of a premium, it seems, as this is a tourist town and there aren't a ton of options for grocery stores that are very close (Food Lion about two miles away). Overall, it's fine. It's got what you need. Note: no beer, no wine, no liquor sold here. read more

Located on coastal highway. I ran in for a few items. I noticed the deli had fried chicken and a good variety of store made soups salad and sandwiches. There was a large selection of meat and roast. The seafood area was small selection so passed on that. It seemed the potato chips were very pricey from my local area. The store was very clean and there is self checkout. read more

Great deals , especially with the digital coupons . Store is always clean and the staff very friendly and helpful.

Big market with excellent service staff. Good variety of gluten free foods.With the cost of eating out in Ocean city really pricey, it was nice bringing home foods for breakfast and lunch. Good deli and big variety of frozen goods. read more

Place was good-had what I needed. I don't have much ease to say except that it was convenient and had what I needed.

On the midst of the huge lights and bustle of OC, lies a definite oasis for your basic needs. I don't know if this is THE classic ACME brand market, but it sure looks like the one that used to be in my (WMD) area. It's a market. It's got a good meat department. It's better stocked than anything else I've seen in OC or Pocomoke or Berlin. We camp in Shad Landing a good bit and drive almost 45 minutes to here to stock up on anything we need. Avoid wallyworld and get what you need here. read more

Very impressed with ACME. In comparison to the other grocery stores in the area, they have some of the best options. Always fully stocked and clean. read more

I'm normally not this rude, but this acme is horrible! Very disrespectful employees, the self check out is horrible there is NO space to put your items in the cart. Also prices are WAY to pricey!!!! Just absolutely horrible!! One of the employees was VERY disrespectful to my husband! He didn't do anything wrong, he was just going to the self checkout!! You guys are lucky that you have to put a star on here, I would definitely not give you a star if I had a choice! Definitely NOT going here again. Nothing. Will. Change. My. Mind. Sincerely, A not satisfied customer!!! read more

Very decent supermarket! They have a large selection of products that are indicative to the Maryland area like Utz Crab Flavored Potato chips. They also have a lot of hard to find products, like RC cola and Amy's Light Goddess salad dressing. On the flip side, if you want Cafe Bustello coffee (not k-cup)- good luck! Their rotisserie chickens are great. They also have a lot of baked goods that looked very fresh. read more

Went inside with an open mind considering I know I wasn't going to find my favorite foods in there because they tend to cater more to the ocean crowd knowing people are probably going to buy mostly drinks and snacks, but wow this place is really dirty. It's not appealing at all inside. Grabbed a few things to keep my hotel room stocked but 3 of the items I ended up purchasing were already out of date by a few months. The only reason I knew was because they tasted off and then I decided to check the date and now I'm upset. This place really needs an upgrade. I'm assuming corporate really doesn't care because it's an ocean grocery store and doesn't have much competition so why bother to make any improvements. read more

There are some good and bad about this market but as far as in Ocean City this is the best. This is the best because it's a sister company of Safeway. Not only does it have all the basics but it is the only place on the strip that offers organic products. This is really exciting to me. The only other place in Ocean City that we found is Harris Teeter. This place is just much more convenient for us. The bad news about this place is we bought all of these organic products just to find that most of them other than the produce were expired. I'll still be coming here for my groceries I'll just have to pay more attention. read more

Acme is conveniently located and can be walked to from our location. They have everything you need and their cold cuts are very fresh during the summer season. They are quick to open additional cash registers when needed. read more

This community grocery store is great for all of your needs. It's affordable, and has a great selection.

Always enjoy the variety of organic items. Also, enjoy the cleanliness and organization of all sections. They do a great job of making sale sections visually enticing too. Very friendly staff and management, including Mona & Amy during my checkout experience today. I was also directed to the exact location of red cabbage while shopping in the produce section by a taller gentleman. After which, he asked if there was anything else he could assist me with. 5 stars ACME. Great team. read more

This place is OK if you are in a pinch and don't want to drive over the bridge. Most of the groceries are over priced because they're one of the only places that you don't have to leave Ocean City. Nothing wrong with the quality of the groceries (from what we bought), but if you are driving in, you're better stopping at food lion or another large chain. read more

Terrible and I thought Super Fresh was bad. Live in the neighborhood and the prices have gone way up while the product selection has narrowed. The staff seems miserable and don't dare ask if you can enter your phone number for their coupon program. There are only two grocery stores left in town, but a trip to Walmart in West OC is well worth it! read more

Ok bakery, everything else is way overpriced. They constantly sell bad fish. I reach in the back of the rack for cod fillets, that have 4 days until expiration, and still bad. God help the people who grab the packages with only one day left. Anyhow I went the next time to the meat guy and asked for some right out of the back. He pulled out a Styrofoam cooler with fillets packed in ice. Ok. They apparently pull non frozen/ ??fresh fillets from the same batch and slap a 4 day freshness sticker on it every day. How old are they in the back before that happens. Plus even fish I catch have a max of 3 days before eating or freezing. It's unreal they are selling non frozen fish past 4, 5 , 6, 7, or more says. I want to report them, but not sure who to call. read more

This store has the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Everyone is so friendly and helpful!! Big shout out to Joan, Melody, Nicole, Gary, Debbie, Barbara and Mona!! read more

The selection at this Acme is a bit better than other Acme stores that I have shopped at. The prices are a little high, as to be expected in a beach town. To my knowledge, this is the ONLY grocery store in the area that offers a salad bar. I recommend getting their newspaper fliers and/or go on line to find deals and sales. They often have buy 1 get 1 free deals. The produce is descent, as is the cheese and meat department. read more

Store packed and 1 cashier and 1 express. Huge line with packed carts. In that one open lane. Manager not around. What is the point of having the store open if you can't ring up customers. Left and went to Food Lion. They had an excess of employees. Sales great. Terrible service. Very disappointing. read more

Great sales. Horrible service. Cashiers are all over the place besides registers. Bagging doesn't seem to be part of their job either. Look at customers expecting them to bag. read more

You really have to watch what the cashier is ringing up, they make a lot of mistakes that always seem to favor the store. The "buy one, get one free" promotions suck, I really don't need 10 lbs. of chicken! I spend most of the summer in OC and the Acme is 5 minutes away so I use it often to supplement the stuff I bring from home. If you're coming to OC for a vacation and didn't do your shopping at home it would pay to stop at the Walmart off of Rte. 50 and do all of your shopping there. read more

the deli section is very slow, waited a half hour for one order of ham... very frustrating when you are in a hurry
