    Always love to come to SL for fresh grocery and hot food station. The veggies and fruits are in good quality. Bakery section always smells so good. Meat and frozen sections are full of choices. Also there are drinks, snacks, ready-to-go food etc. Hot food station is another big reason that we visit. Salmon is cooked perfectly. Brussels sprouts and mixed veggies are seasoned nicely. We use self checkout a lot. A staff is always there if you have some issues. Very efficient and quick. They have regular checkout line as well.

    Run, don't walk to Stew Leonard's -- they're officially selling the viral butter shell soft serve that Dominique Ansel has a chokehold on in the city. It's decadent, creamy, and when it's hit with a sprinkle of flaky salt? Unreal. The creamiest mouthfeel, the perfect bite, and only $5 which truly saves you a trip to NYC. And honestly, even if the butter shell isn't your vibe, Stew Leonard's is an experience on its own. They've got fun, interactive animatronics throughout the store, an insane bakery lineup with pastries that fly off the shelves, and super-fresh meats straight from the butcher. Add in their other soft-serve options like Dole Whip, low-fat frozen yogurt, and classic sundaes, and you'll never walk out disappointed. Oh, and if you like friendly staff similar to those at Trader Joes you could find them at scale here.

    Stew Leonard's is much more than just a grocery store: it's an experience! The store is honestly fun for both kids and adults, thanks to the animatronics scattered throughout every section, from produce to dairy to meat. I'm especially glad to see that they highlight their top performing employees based on customer satisfaction, because everything has always gone smoothly when I've been there. They offer a fantastic variety of high-quality goods. While some items are pricier, others are very reasonably priced. I appreciate the wide selection of fresh meats, fish, produce, and excellent prepared foods. Plus, the ice cream station offers really good options. However, the one true reason to come here, the reason that makes this place a five-star destination, is the Snow Rolls. You absolutely won't regret getting them; they are my favorite! Stew Leonard's successfully blends quality shopping, exceptional service, and a unique, entertaining atmosphere.

    **This review is only for their ice cream** I've never actually shopped at Stew Leonard's before... but while I was walking through Paramus Park mall, I noticed people eating delicious-looking soft serve ice cream near the entrance. So naturally, I HAD to get one for myself on a hot summer day. Yes, I get tempted by food easily. The ice cream kiosk is located near the registers. The menu is pretty straight forward. They have 6 flavors (vanilla, chocolate, pineapple, coconut, strawberry, pistachio) along with fat-free vanilla and chocolate. You have the option of getting a twist/mix of two flavors, but they have to be from the same machine. You can choose between a cone or cup. They have additional charges for toppings. I got the "Pina Colada" flavor in a small cup ($3.50), which is basically a twist of pineapple dole flavor + coconut. The soft serve was creamy and light. The flavors were on the subtle side. I wish the pineapple could have been more tarty and the coconut more rich, but it was still a good pick-me-up. I already have my eyes on trying other flavors!

    Stew Leonard's is such a fun and unique grocery store -- it's like a cross between Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, but with its own twist of entertainment and charm. I went for a regular grocery run and ended up having a full-on experience! I spent just over $100 and got a coupon for a free soft serve ice cream. I went with the vanilla cone with rainbow sprinkles -- super creamy and tasty -- but heads up: the line for ice cream can get long, especially on weekends. Worth the wait, though! I brought my 18-month-old, and he had an absolute blast. He lit up at all the animatronic characters -- there are figures on the ceiling playing music and instruments throughout the store. He was clapping, pointing, dancing -- honestly, it turned a typical grocery trip into a mini adventure for him. The free samples were also a hit (for both of us), especially the fresh fruit and bakery items. Also, shoutout to the liquor, wine, and beer section -- it's huge, super well-stocked, and honestly the most affordable selection I've seen in the area. Great deals on quality brands. Between the fun atmosphere, good prices, and family-friendly vibe, Stew Leonard's has definitely earned a spot in our regular rotation.

    We came back again for the butter lobster rolls BCI see it was so delicious the last time we tried it. Disappointed! It was a Sunday, so I assume lobsters were maybe from Saturday or even Friday because the texture was too rubbery! Our rolled was not as packed with lobster meat this time. The lobster meat was mostly shredded , the largest piece was the size of a nickel, and the bun was all soggy! Otherwise we still love this grocery store chain!

    Outstanding worker

    This is the second time this worker stopped what she was doing to make me the salad. I wanted with walnuts, cranberries, and no cheese on it Stew Leonard should know in my opinion she is an asset to the company.

    Interesting supermarket with tons of robotic animals that sing and dances for declorations. The prices of items seem to little higher than average grocery store, but they have so many different sections that you can find almost everything food needs here (sushi, cheese, wine, pizza, etc) The service was pretty quick and cashiers are friendly and helpful. If I was living close, I would go there for all my grocery needs. I like it here and I recommend.

    Adorable characters in motion throughout the store!

    10/10/23 Update: You can always pickup a variety of wonderful food at Stew Leonard's. They had an array of pies. I was mainly interested, in a pumpkin pie. Unfortunately, I did not see any on display. At the bakery counter, a woman named Monisha assisted me. She told me a pumpkin pie was in the oven. In addition, it would be ready in a few minutes. She told me the pie was $10.99. I was sold! : D (Turned out to be one of the best pumpkin pies I've ever had. The crust was very good too!) Besides the pumpkin pie, I picked up some wonderful pink honey gold pineapple chunks, crystallized ginger and Angus shaved roast beef. Stew Leonard's always has cartoon type characters providing entertainment for all ages. Presently, SL has an outdoor drive through with an array of interesting Halloween characters. Thanks again to Monisha for assistance with the pumpkin pie!

    Within the last year, I've turned into a super fan of Stew Leonard's. I never knew about this regional grocery chain that began in CT, and over decades made its way into NY and North Jersey. But driving past the Paramus Park Mall and seeing the main entrance giving major farm vibes - this piqued my interest. So one day I went inside and BAM *mind-blown emoji* So I don't do the bulk of my grocery shopping here, but I stop in for select items or to hit up the premade food area during lunch time. I like to browse and look for locally sourced products/items or bakery items. I've found some specialty items not easily found in my main grocery store. Also, they have a pretty extensive alcoholic beverage selection sold here. If you have small kids, there's free entertainment with all the interactive displays throughout the store. Good way to keep them entertained.

    My son had his 4th birthday party and it was excellent! The party anner Brianna was well organized and answered all of my questions. The food was delicious and they had many different stations throughout the party. The duck and cow were fun and danced with the kids. The cake was good and well decorated. The signage and decor throughout was top knotch and the room is huge! Thank you!

(Just after Shake Shack, Look for the Verizon store on the front corner of the building) Plenty of parking in the rear. When you enter this beautiful store, fresh organic produce in abundance are presented. Prices are on par or even better than Whole Foods. I love their self serve bins of bulk ingredients especially the nooch! Iykyk! The cold refrigerator offers an abundance of healthy options, love their plant based vegan products such as yogurts, milks and cheeses. Found my favorite jackfruit brand of frozen ingredients. Lots of vitamins offered for healthy living. Freshly grounded nut butters. Gluten free options aplenty. Healthier snack options like chips, ice cream, nuts and lots of chocolates. We've been going weekly and I can confidently say The staff are always amazing! So helpful and insightful. They offer a coupon book which can easily be used in store. Complimentary hot coffee is offered for shoppers making for an enjoyable shopping experience. Definitely worth the extra effort off route 17 south to explore this local gem of a market!

    Lidl is a new grocery shopping stop for me. Since the Paramus location opening last month, I've…read morebeen hitting up Lidl on Rt. 17 a couple of times already. I am a Lidl fan now. I like the German pretzels from the bakery section. Lidl also has a variety of tasty and affordable Indian frozen dinners. My husband is a big fan of having a few of these in our freezer at home as backups for very busy work nights when we don't have time to cook. I like some of their home brand snacks. The self-check out area has about 6 or so stations, so I haven't ever been on a line really. There are also register aisles, but I've really just seen staff at the self-check out area. There's ample parking in the shopping plaza where the Paramus location is situated. I will get a cart from one of the outside pens and push it to the store. If you have little ones, there are also mini Lidl carts that they can push around along with you - very cute!

Lidl consistently carries some name brand items like Goya, Ocean Spray, Poland Spring and others, which I like. Lidl sells freshly baked croissants for $.49. If you can get your hands on them, they are delish. Overall, this is one of my go to markets to shop.
