The food quality has been going down hill while the prices spike!…read more Bought mandarins (cuties) the other day. They seemed fine, minus one I had to throw out. No big deal, only one. The next day 2 more were rotted, leaning all over the counter smelling sour I contacted the store but this was 4 days after the fact and ALL have been discarded because they are rotten. Of course you can't do anything without the packaging or the receipt. Didn't think I'd have to save it with their "fresh produce"

Perfect grocery store if you want to lower your grocery bill without sacrificing quality. They have…read morea great produce section with organic options as well. Be careful to double check some fruit. There have been a few times in which I purchased strawberries or blueberries and such and there were a few moldy pieces in the package! This is not the norm though. They have some big name products and the ones that aren't are still great in quality and the cheaper price makes it even better. I love that they have a section for household products (pots, pans, utensils, rugs, candles, etc). They also have a pretty good desserts selection. The double chocolate creme cake is to die for. Big parking lot, Bright aisles, shelves are nice and neat. Con: Sometimes the cashiers through your items in the cart especially if it's busy. They are timed but I don't care about time when my yogurt bursts open and I have to go back and get new ones. :-(

There is so much to choose from; hair care, prepped food, snacks, dog food and snacks and they are all organic and naturally made without cruelty or any additives. The woman here (I wish I didn't forget her name cause she was the sweetest and very helpful) gave me holistic suggestions to my inflammatory knee swelling and pain. I have tried everything over the counter, prescription, orthopedic medicine; nothing helps but natural and organic medicine!!! It's time we start using what Mother Nature gave us! I've also come here in the past after some physical agility fighting which left me SORE and didn't want to take a bunch of over the counter meds. Arnica gel and tabs are great! As well as the natural Joint formulas

It's Only Natural is a great little grocery store on Main Street in Middletown. It's small, but…read morethis might be a one stop shop, if it just wasn't so expensive. There's everything in this store, organic produce, juices, vitamins and supplements, chocolate and candy I've never seen before, they even have a little section where you can get a fresh smoothie or a sandwich. There's an area where you can sit with your food. They even have a post office in this little grocery store. But it is expensive.. a box of cereal is $7.49, and it's not even a large box. They had a 5 pound jar of local honey for $50.00. I stopped in to pick up some crackers for my guacamole, I picked some really nice ones for only $3.29, but half the bag was air. This is not the fault of the store of course. It's a lot of fun to walk through a store where everything looks new, and innovative. If you're in the area stop by, always shop smart, not impulsively.

In other words, the usual at Stop and Shop Middletown. And who was this Customer Service clerk? The assistant manager! Rude, unhelpful, and just plain unpleasant. I wss going to buy groceries too, but I just left my cart and walked out. The worst grocery store I've ever been to, and it's because of the service, or lack of it. I live only a mile away, but I'm never going back. I'd give it zero stars if I could.

There is one reason I keep coming here - it is three minutes drive from my house. That is where my…read moreenjoyment of this supermarket ends. For me, shopping here is truly a displeasure. The stocking is inconsistent so I can never rely on being able to get the products I come in for. This is particularly true for buttermilk which I buy weekly. Yes, it is a specialty item but the store is plenty large enough to keep it in stock and perhaps carry more than the one expensive option offered. In terms of the other selection, it is hard to find unusual ingredients and yet there does often seem to be a decent selection of tropical fruit. The bakery has very mediocre bakes and an average selection at best. There is nothing truly horrifying; I mean to say the place is relatively clean, no vermin, nothing that could actually get me to stop being lazy and go somewhere I enjoy shopping. This particular branch is pretty basic and low-tech. Finally, the staff and employees are a mixed batch that kind of breaks down to be 25% spiteful, 50% ambivalent, and 25% pleasant. If you have better options or more motivation, head elsewhere.

Once upon a time there was a Old Latina Woman and her son that ran this place as "Ortiz", and way…read moreback when she used to cook traditional puerto rican dishes every morning and sell them over the counter at her bodega. Ortiz is long gone, but it's former shell is still operating as "Los Primos" Yes, I said bodega, because essentially this is what Los Primos is. Not only can you get the most incredible latin food, but you can also buy Faygo soda, Lottery Tickets, Cheetos & a "Loosey". Dont be "scurred" by the appearance, and don't let your apprehension stop you from enjoying some of the best latin food around. You'll undoubtedly have to bypass the riff-raff that congregates near the front door, but once you get inside the smells of sweet plaintains and freshly cooked pork waft through the air. A steam table near the back is filled with the delicacies of the day. Roasted Pernil, Chicken Legs in Adobo, and Steak simmered in peppers & onions. Yellow Rice & Beans, and Sauteed Plaintains. Fried Pork, Empanadas & Renello De Papas are in the warming cabinet up front. Lunch containers come in 3 sizes ($4 for small, $6 for medium & $8 for large), and come with rice, beans, plantains and your choice of meat. You can also buy meat by the pound ($6.99). Trust when I say this food is addicting. You WILL crave it again and again, and find excuses to make your way back to middletown for lunch time. Keep in mind that it's lunch time only, and they only make a certain amount of food, so once they're out, you're out of luck. I'm also not sure if they cook on weekends, or if they accept credit cards (i've always gone on a weekday & paid with cash). You can easily get away with lunch for 2 here under $15 and be completely stuffed. Go and enjoy a place that I used to keep in my secret stash...

Particularly during the holidays, where he is talking about how to prepare your holiday meals. Second, my friend from New Jersey is probably the Duchess of Stew Leonard's and I had to see what this was all about. Here is my story It's like going to a Trader Joe's if you're on the West Coast, BuCees if you're on Central and southeast part of the country or I don't know I suppose a typical local giant supermarket. Here are my observations. They accommodate the local people they have so many things you can do with your children. If you're shopping in the store, they have mascots and different games you can play. The store is clean and organize organized There are many local products, they support the local community Would I go back? Probably if I lived closer, I would love to buy their vegetables which was very neatly displayed and priced. They were busy! That says something right?
