    Bar in the super market!
    Denise Z.

    So convenient! Grab a drink and relax for a while watch some football then get ready to food shop.In NJ most super markets are massively big in DC it's basically grab the necessities from deli, dairy and frozen and go enjoy the rest of your day!

    This is my neighborhood Giant. I don't have a lot of complaints about the store. It's never too busy. There's a parking garage where that's free for 2 hours with a validated ticket from Giant. There's always plenty of options to choose from. Fantastic customer service as well. I love the produce here. Fresh fruits and veggies all the time. The bakery is phenomenal. I always get cakes for birthdays here and everyone loves them! They have a large selection of natural/healthy foods, vegan options, Asian and Mexican cuisines. They have it all! Great stop for everything really minus the cat pet supplies but I really can't complain. They have the basics.

    CVS print out

    My pulmonologist prescribed a medication for my issue prescription was sent to CVS to have filled 3031 14th Street Northwest Washington DC Columbia heights. Medication was not in stock. there's a CVS in Target across the street CVS inside of Target 14th Street. They also did not have the medication in stock a order were place for the medication. I was informed that it will be in the next day. 4 days pass no medication. CVS did not receive this medication. On November 17th 2022. I return to the CVS . Medication has not come in I informed the pharmacist I was having breathing problems. Pharmacist also associate Put there head together. And request I go to Giant pharmacy across the street at 1345 Park road Northwest Washington DC I was given a print out. Describing the medication I need on this print out. the phone numbers were written in red. The reason to show the urgency. 5 minutes later I was at the Giant pharmacy. I informed the associate at the counter. my situation. I informed him that the CVS needed him to contact them. to give her a call. To transfer my prescription. I gave him the print out the associate threw it back on the counter and said he was not going to call them. His reason no CVS answers the phone. I said sir I really need you to call her I'm not feeling very well I'm having breathing problems. I was still denied. I said to him. She's waiting on your call. He refused to make the call. I informed him I will make the call. she answered on the second ring. CVS associate was waiting on the call. He did hear her on the phone. She said have him to call me I am still waiting. I inform her he refused to call. Because CVS do not answer the phone. She replied what do you mean we always answer the phone. He did hear her voice on the phone and she I am waiting by the phone . He refused to call her. At this time the pharmacy heard our conversation. I Heard a voice. He said I am not going to fill that prescription. I asked why. The pharmacist did not give an answer. I said sir I am not feeling well . I am having breathing problems. The pharmacist said he was not feeling well either. I believe the way I was treated. Because of the way I look. I was coming from a job. And I wasn't dressed very well. If this is the case. The pharmacist had no compassion. Also the associate had no compassion. This is the world we live in. I am disappointed with giant customer service.

    Covid vaccination site

    This Giant has been in this historic O Street Market location for almost 8 years already but still feels like a brand new place. Apparently it's one of the largest grocery stores in DC in terms of overall store space. It certainly looks nice, with high ceilings and wide aisles good for distancing. Product variety wise, probably not that different from my small local Giant but definitely a much nicer shopping environment with more spacious self and non-self checkout stations. This time took someone there to get vaccinated - the COVID vaccination area is all the way back from the entrance, next to the deli section. Situated in a slightly sunken open space, with portable partitions for privacy. The after shot waiting area is right by the deli section, with well spaced out chairs. All in all quite an impressive store in the up and coming Shaw area, about two blocks from the Green/Yellow Line Mt Vernon Square metro station.

    I never thought I'd give a Giant a good review but here we are. We stumbled across this Giant and my tummy appreciates it. Half of it seems really new and clean! It really caught me by surprise when I stopped in. The best thing about it so far is that they have a good selection of gluten free and speciality foods (like dairy free milk options) and dairy free icecream! I literally keep coming back for the SoDelicious Chocolate cookies and cream icecream. I will say I bought several cartons of ice cream the other day and they all had clearly defrosted a bit and refroze and it did taste funny. I didn't have the time or energy to return it so I dealt with it but going forward, I check the top to see if it is flat or if there is a big gap on one side (which would be mean it defrosted on its side and was refrozen). Anyway, enough about ice-cream-gate. The rest of the store is kind of old and dated. It's a weird mix of a store... not sure why they wouldn't renovate the whole thing and at least give it a little bit of a face lift. Also, there is never really any produce. The several times we've come by, ppl are just trying to pick through what is left, its a little sad. I think too many people shop on the weekends for them not to have enough fresh produce. TL;DR: It's a good store and mostly because it does have some items that are not always well stocked, but they could be better stocked when it comes to other staples like fresh veggies.

    Berger cookies, Taylor ham, AND chifles picantes?! This Giant has everything you need and want!

    Were that I were a poet and could do this place justice! Oh, that I were a glove upon that hand/That I might touch that cheek, etc. First of all, there's a bar. You can grab a beer and then toot around the store shopping. They tell you to never shop hungry, but shopping with one beer is the best decision you will ever make when grocery shopping. Trust me. Secondly, it's never crowded. Sure, it gets busy, but they have figured out a system to effectively and efficiently move guests through lines so you are out of there quickly. The people who work there seem genuinely happy to be there and are always friendly and helpful. Thirdly, they have everything. I mean everything. Berger cookies? Check. Plantain chips, the likes of which I have not seen since leaving from South America? Ch-check. Taylor Ham? (I don't know why New Jersians get excited over this, but they do and I have several in my life so there you have it. Pro or con in Giant's favor? I can't decide.) Check. There's bike parking outside, bus lines connecting it to Shaw and DuPont (where the grocery stores are truly scary), a huge beer and wine selection as well as a gluton free area and like actual pet products (dog beds! rabbit food!) I am so happy this place exists!

    Put his hands on me and had his phone inches from my face, if thats not harassment.

    Very clean but the outside can be quite sketchy and the staff is mostly pretty rude. It is the closest grocery store to Shaw-Mt Vernon.

    I like the new manager they have there. (December 2023) when I shop at this job I'll get out of produce that I need.

I had questions because it was my first time getting actual food there and most of the people at the register seemed irritated and upset about me inquiring. But something was different when I went in the other day because all that completely changed. Thanks to Chi Chi and Rell (there was also another guy there with glasses whose name I didn't get)! But they were the BEST! The best customer service I've had there since I started going. First off as soon as I walked in Chi Chi greeted me with the biggest smile and positive welcomed energy! I was shocked because no one EVER speaks when I go in, so that was really refreshing! She's was so nice and sweet and patient with me and all the other guest! I placed my order and Rell took care of it. I usually have a few modifications with my sandwich and for most of the other employees that seems to be a problem or bring extreme frustration. Rell didn't have a problem at all! Usually it's a lot of eye rolling and deep breaths, and it'll be over something small like asking for sub roll instead of regular bread. So it was nice to order my food and not get attitude from staff for how I want to eat my food. I feel like as long as Rell and Chi Chi are there the vibes are going to VIBE!! The food was moving out quick. The place felt and looked clean. They had no problem answering the questions I had about the shop and what they sold. Shout out to them forreal because I was prepared to leave a not so pleasant review about my experience but I'm glad they changed that because I'll definitely be back more often than not! Thanks Chi Chi and Rell, not only providing great customer service but just for being a vibe!
