6:30 Saturday at their "Customer Service" desk, I asked for lottery tickets. "No. Lottery's off." I…read moreasked for change to use the lottery machine. "We don't make change." 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.

We were looking for wide indoor cycling shoes for our Peloton and when we kept striking out online,…read morewe figured we would check out Pedal Power. As soon as we walked in, a staff member asked us how they could help and connected us with their co-worker who was "an expert in cycling shoes." She gave us two options, explained the difference between the two and detailed which shoe she thought each of us would prefer based on what we told her. She even explained the science behind what happens to our feet when we're cycling and that we would probably benefit from going a size up. We ended up walking out with shoes that 50% off and they feel FANTASTIC! We had her undivided attention for about 20 minutes. It was truly a wonderful experience, couldn't have asked for better customer service. I'm so happy we went in!

He enticed us further by showing us a fire feature that was and option with the fountain we got. We did the install on our own and he was incredible with walking us through it step by step. He was there when we had small or big questions and was so friendly. He takes the time to leave his customers satisfied and happy which is the hallmark of a great businessman. If you're looking for a place to visit to see the splendor he has set up or to get a fountain I cannot say enough about this place and it's owner.
