Cons:
"The aisles are narrow and some people can’t drive."

"Also the isles are like a maze very difficult to find everything and to get from one place to another, it just seems like there’s no common sense in the distribution, but that’s just my opinion."
"This place is one big cluster of disaster. Overcrowded and unsanitary."
"The restrooms are BEYOND GROSS."
"First off the food had mold on it and there were mice running around the produce area."
"The rafters above the cooking and food prep area in the outside snack bar are covered in dust and grime."
Product Quality
Pros:
"We find the quality of the food to be very good. The produce and bakery never disappoint."
"I love Stew Leonard's! It is a bit more pricey (not terrible though) than the local store but their fruit and vegetables are grown local as much as possible and the sign tells you which farm or state it came from."
"Veggies and fruit looked fresh!"
"So many quality products left and right!"
"Love this place great selection of baked goods, cheeses, meats and seafood!"
"Their seafood selection was as impressive."
"Everything they have in stock is great quality."
Cons:
"For example their shaved honey turkey cold cuts were delicious the 1st time. The next time, it was dry and tasteless."
"Everything on the food bars looked like it had been out for hours."
"The lobster roll was absolutely horrible, the worst I have ever had even here last year."
"Every single time I buy a dessert from the bakery of Stew leonard's, I am disappointed without fail."
"That is why their donuts were such a huge disappointment... They were huge, doused in powdered sugar and void of filling."
"The meat u make pot roast in a crackpot is horrible and expensive."
"The cheesecake was disgusting! We threw it all out because of how inedible everything was!"

"BTW - some of the friendliest employees around. One of them carried my groceries out to my car for me!"

"The staff there also were very helpful!"
"Stew's Is Always Amazing! Staff Are So Friendly & Willing To Assist!"
Cons:
"I had a terrible experience with a cashier, who became argumentative with me over separating hot and cold items while bagging."
"The service was horrible! Every employee with the exception of 1 was rude and didn’t know anything!"

Pricing
Pros:

Cons:
"It's a bit pricier than other stores, but it's pretty good quality food."
"Love this place but food prices has increased way too much in that store."
"I think they may be pricing themselves out of business."
"The price of everything is also overpriced. No sales or any good deals here."
"Now I know prices of groceries have gone up, but I seriously had to put items back here because of the pricing."
"Stews was over crowded and biggest disappointment was the price gauging for corn on the cob. 4 ears for $5.00?? What a rip off!"
"I spent $150 today and still have nothing to eat. Lol. I wont be back for awhile."
