Great place for grocery shopping, even an employees gets discount on their groceries.

Service desk can use support and a little more patience as it shows during customer interaction. The person or persons who monitor self check out do a good job at overseeing their area during the week and it shows by the support Ive witness during a male function issue with a couple if resisters at the same time.

This Jewel is also getting an interior facelift. The updates look really nice but they may still be doing some work at this time because there is still some tile left down the center aisles rather than the vinyl wood flooring.The updates included the addition of several self checkout lanes which are great.Store seemed well organized and clean with stocked shelves.

Today. Checked out at the self checkout. When done, the machine wouldnt accept cash! Move to another self checkout. Rerun everything again! When I left, 5 of the self checkout machines werent working! For the past five weeks, on Saturday only, the self checkout does not recognize the Sun-Times newspaper!! The asst. Manager is rude! Jewel needs to update the barcode for the Saturday paper. Manager says its not their problem!!

I would like to recognize the Assistant Manager Ron for helping with boxes for a food drive we hosted today. I came in earlier this week and he said he would have boxes set aside for me. Sure enough I stopped in this morning and he was able to accommodate. With those boxes we were able to collect more non perishable food than originally planned for those in need. Thank you Ron for helping.

Sometimes their prices are really high, but I dont think this is unique to them. You have to be extra savvy to hold onto your money when it comes to groceries. That being said they have made some nice renovations to the store and they figured out that they needed a better self-check out system and not that they needed to get rid of it altogether. That has greatly increased my willingness to swing by and pick up a handful of things.

This is place is a joke. A cashier came running after my mom claiming that my card didn’t “go through” after we almost got to my car. The cashier later told me “it was my fault for not waiting for the receipt” first of all she was distracted since the minute my transaction started. Wasn’t even bothered to help bag my bags. Once I got back inside, the manger gave me my receipt without a problem. If a cashier is that distracted she should even be a cashier

Visited this Jewel day after the other great Jewel. Was amazed at the wide variety of almost all their products. Lots of fun loading up the cart...great veggies in appealing displays, so many varieties in every department. I was amazed...I just kept loading up the cart like a kid in a candy store!

When Jewels has a SALE.......lowest prices anywhere! The deli counter and the people who run it are awesome! They have NEVER had a problem with any of my requests.......not to mention that the meats/cheeses/& pre-made foods in the deli are phenomenal!!!

First time ever ordering online for groceries and it gets delayed. That isnt convenient at all, especially when I have work and wont be able to pick up at their latest time. How hard can it be? I work a warehouse three times bigger than this place and am able to fill hundreds of orders in a few hours. Here is an idea, dont have a pick up time if you cant follow through with it.

Review №21

This Jewel is dirty, has terrible produce, rude employees, overcooked fried chicken, and keeps expired product out on the shelf so if you have to go here make sure to check expiration dates because if you buy any of their expired product they wont let you return it. I go out of my way to avoid this Jewel.

Ka
Review №22

I avoid shopping here when I can. Besides being overpriced and the store itself showing signs of wear, they never have enough registers open. I usually end up waiting in line for 10+ minutes to check out. To make matters worse, they recently closed their self checkout lanes. The only positive thing is their friendly staff, but its still not enough to redeem the experience.

A package of mine was dropped off on 10/1 at this Jewels location for FedEx. After a week and the tracking never updating I called Jewels multiple times only to be told they don’t have any packages and everything has been shipped out. I decided to go there and was told by a manager there wasn’t anything they could do and that their just a middle man. What type of business doesn’t keep track of who takes and brings packages in for FedEx? This location offered NO type of assistance and just gave a dry sorry. After speaking to FedEx I am certain someone from this location stole the contents of my package (iPhone) as FedEx confirmed they never received the package. I will NEVER use this as a FedEx hub and the bad taste it left I prob will nvr shop there again as well.

Lack of product - displays especially in produce were knocked over with grapes spilling - prices rediculoisly high! The only reason l ever go to Jewel - which used to be top of the line - is for flowers. And this time because a friend gave me Jewel gift card.

Self-scanners need to be cleaned better. Disinfectant wipes are not always available to clean carts. One night there were no carts available inside, had to go back outside for them.

It is a nice store however they really make you search for sale items by strategically placing them in off beat areas. We believe they merchandise the sale items in a way to force shoppers to purchase more easily accessible non-sale items.

Review №62

There is a reason, besides their high prices, that I do not shop at this store and today once again confirmed why I rarely go in here. In an environment of a rare pandemic, we all should be stepping up to help each other out but these employees refuse to go above and beyond their job, refusing to help somebody at the helpdesk just because it’s a few minutes before their “start” time. If I had done that at any place I’ve worked, I would have been fired.

The employees at Jewel are very nice. The young ladies working at the tcf bank thats inside of Jewel are very sweet and respectful. Ive been coming to tcf for three years now and Ive never had a problem with the bank tellers. My special needs daughter loves to go to the bank with me because she likes the attention that the bank tellers give her.

I dont usually go to this Jewel and heres the reason why I walked in there at 9 at night all the food and vegetables are covered and they dont have anything out I know it was a Sunday night but why are you covering stuff up I walked in the other Jewels at 9 at night on a Sunday and everything still there Im not saying that they were out of it also this Joel their fruits and vegetables arent as fresh as the other Jewel Ive experienced that before

Kelly who work November the 24th at around 6pm is very rude, glares at her customers, and told her eyes. We asked another worker if a manager is on duty, she said yes and led us to another associate who was NOT a manager. After finally finding the manager, and a compliant was made, she followed us and even glared the manager down. She swore at us and two other customers in front of us made complaints as well.

I had been going to this Jewel for many years. Never realized who the manager was, because I never had a complaint to make ....and Im very critical in voice....I saw today some woman making a tantrum of a 4 year old at the Customer Service desk......she made a complete ass out of herself.I had found that one of my high school alumni is the manager ...I saw this transpire, it made me sick.
