Lots of ensaladas and hot food options. Huge produce selection Cons: Candy/Bonbon section has shrunk a bit and they no didn't have any pinta azul paletas or the Bianchi's by de la Rosa. We were able to find them here in the summer time. We can get spices here that we cannot find anywhere else and they always have Serranos and specialty peppers stocked. You can find yuca plants and harvested yuca here as well. Their meat market is robust and will likely have every type you're looking for. Tips: Try to go with someone who speaks some Spanish - not everyone speaks English and can be challenging if you're looking for a specific item. I was treated with respect and I do speak some Spanish, which may have helped (attempting to speak Spanish went a long way during this visit) One of the shelf stockers spoke only English and was able to help me find something I was looking for.

In my quest to explore the various cuisine scenes and businesses throughout Jersey City and specifically the Heights, I finally made my way to Stop & Shop's Central Ave. location. I was working in the area on a project (and remote working, too) for an extended stay and needed some groceries and household goods to save a bit of money while I stayed at a dear friend's place. I've really only tried one other local grocery store (Supremo Food Market), so I was kind of excited to see how they compared. A regional northeastern grocery chain who got its start in 1914, it had slowly expanded through acquisitions and being acquired, and finally broke into the New Jersey market in 2011. For those familiar with the former 99 Cent Only brand, I found the two very comparable with a little mix of Smart & Final. Would I continue to stop and shop with this brand and particular at this convenient location whenever I was in town!? PURCHASE 1st Purchase ($17.74): As a trial run of sorts, I came in on a recognizance mission to get the lay of the land and found some snacking food that held me over during the day. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=SmVh2-X2wbgFodYgDM79qw 2nd Purchase ($10.07): I found more snack foods (Harry Potter Goldfish!) and hot cocoa mix because the weather was cold and wet! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=6V6QwU3zFiT1z1ysRjFjeg 3rd Purchase ($35.75): This time, I actually bought stuff to make meals with, such as my ghetto vegetable tacos and mac and cheese, and flavored sparkling water since I was still in throes of Lent. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=Uy29cR2GvyIekw5fyqeCMw 4th Purchase ($131.42): This was the largest bill because I bought groceries for my friend and a "thank you" housing me while I stayed at her place. 5th Purchase ($27.90): More snacking and stuff! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=N6kkBcPU9IPc2b9NfcM4UQ 6th Purchase ($4.95): I needed to wash dishes. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=24&select=4e0S9I3SbP7ONwA9FRRaeA SERVICE Each time I shopped, I simply went about my normal routine and went up and down each aisle just to see what they had without needing any assistance until it was time to pay. On my first visit, I learned they had a rewards program from a kind older female checker, so I signed up once I got home so I could earn some goodies! After a user error mishap with the rewards program, I finally got the hang of it. Each cashier I dealt with was fine and got the job done, but little to no chit-chat, and the lines where you bagged your own groceries were best if you only had ten items or less. All was good! PARKING (FREE; N/A this instance) This was an easy flat 10-minute walk from my friend's place. Otherwise, they had a medium-sized private lot, and there appeared to be plenty of spots along the main drag of Central Ave. and all surrounding roads - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A decent-sized store that had a general sense of snugness as I walked down each multiple long aisle filled with products, you had the produce section once you entered, then the meat/seafood section along the back wall, the dairy section along the far wall, the bread section in a small corner at the front, and the frozen section took up two aisles. Sadly, there wasn't a fresh deli section, but I always managed to find the reduced price section in the far back. Decent natural lighting came through the front windows and doors while soul-sucking fluorescent electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There weren't any TVs nor background music. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Central Ave.'s Stop & Shop location had become my go-to local grocer in the area and would continue to use them. I found everything I needed, they carried both national and private label (even their own!) brands, the prices were very comparable, I had no issues with the quality, the rewards program was helpful, and the service was straightforward. Sure, there wasn't a prepared section, the brand/product selection wasn't as extensive as a major grocer, and the aesthetics wasn't the best, but it served my basic needs. And, I always loved supporting small businesses whenever possible (regional in this case). I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experiences was around $228.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

The outside looked like an old fashioned deli/grocery with tables/stands outside for fruit and flowers. However, once you step inside you see a deli that looks like one of the nicer ones you'd come across in Manhattan's West Village. Based on the other reviews I've read below, it seems like this space has been renovated recently. The buffet table I've seen mentioned is no longer there. The shelves look new(ish) and the items on shelves are very organized. On top of that, the selection is impressive. There was an entire section of hot sauces including Siracha. On another shelf were some fancy low sugar bags of granola (that cost $13.99 *each*). It is a bit cramped when you navigate the aisles, but it I didn't knock anything over by accident so it's not bad. I snagged a bottle of water and was thrilled when the cashier told me it was only $1. I'm so used to going to Target or Shop Rite and having to pay $2 something for a water. It was cool to see even if Natural and Plus sells fancier stuff, not all their prices are high. I'd happily go back to Natural and Plus to grab a drink (and maybe some fresh cut fruit). Check it out if you're in the area!
