Tight quarters in here, but definitely the best in store shopping experience for groceries in center city. Kudos to giant for adjusting what is stocked to meet the needs of it's shoppers, you can finally get decent seafood here, just not as wide a selection of whole foods unfortunately.
While I do consider this store to be a very high end, luxury grocery store... I still really love their selection of alcohol. Their staff are also very nice, and I appreciate the self check out lanes as a super introverted person. I don't know if their meats are really much more expensive than Target or Whole Foods - but there are less options. This is definitely a higher end store, but if you just need a couple of things once and a while and live near by - seems like a great option.
Very fresh fruit and a big wine and beer selection.
This store is great! It's small, but pretty mighty. I can usually find everything I need, especially in the produce department. Everything in the "fresh" aisles is always well stocked. Some of the grocery aisles and refrigerated sections by self-checkout can get low but I don't think I've ever had a scenario where I couldn't find something I needed. The store does a great job of covering the basics. I wish they carried items that are on sale/eligible for reward redemption in the app, but they tend to focus on giant branded items instead. The products are good quality, it's just a shame you see these rewards available and can never redeem them. (For example: one time there was a reward for 10 points or something extremely cheap to get a 2L bottle of the seasonal cranberry sprite, but heirloom stores don't carry name brand sodas like that.) On the flip side: the store is rarely ever crowded! I don't know how they manage to have such a nice store like this where it's not super crowded no matter what time or day of the week I go in.I live smack in the middle between Sprouts and Giant Heirloom and I have to say: I prefer the Heirloom!
Nice location and well stocked
Best collection of cheeses and you can get isgro pastries here as well! Love my neighborhood store!
It's very small. I feel like im in a maze when I went here.
I would be incredible wary of this Giant location, I used Apple Pay to check out (self checkout lane) to buy one item & only to find out after the face that I was charged $105. I have been disputing the claim with my credit card company only have Giant push back. Feels like credit card fraud to me.
Workers are very helpful
It is my belief that Giant created Heirloom to charge millennials more for the same food by luring them inside with fancy branding and a massive beer/wine selection (seriously, it's huge). They did this perfectly.Whenever I walk into a Giant Heirloom I have such high hopes and I am always disappointed by the selection. The produce is the same but there's less of it. The frozen food is the same but there's less of it. I suppose there is more fancy cheese and wine but probably not more than a good local market.However, my biggest grip about this place is that they have NO Diet Coke. In fact, the have no coke or Pepsi products at all. I don't get this? Are they attempting to seem more upscale by not offering these products? They still have candy bars - what gives?The BIGGEST PRO of this place is their Sushi selection. For the uninitiated, Giant offers half-price sushi every Wednesday. At this location, they were still churning out fresh rolls at 7pm.PRO TIP: Try their Buffalo Chicken roll w cream cheese and hot sauce - its very unique and delicious.I think that Giant can do better than this for a small market like this. If you are going to charge more, offer different products. Hopefully, the regular Giant on the river gets reopened soon!
