I drive to the place on a Sunday at 7:30pm.... because the website says it closes at 8pm. It closes at 7pm… FIX YOUR WEBSITE HOURS PLEASE… Thank you.
There produce looked really good and priced very reasonable
I shop here bc its so close to my apartment. But also near by is another grocery, slightly farther. So we shop here for basics as they are cheaper. Heavier items bc we usually walk. But meat and deli products are prepacked. And fresher is of course better. So for specialty items, meats, cold cuts, etc, we take the longer walk
New improvement to store, New Asian inspired Foods, seafood,etc.
A great experience the grocery store was very clean and thats what I was looking for
Good store. Lower prices so some brands are unfamiliar but most are comparable. Not always well stocked. Produce cheaper and doesnt seem to stay fresh as long but tasty if used timely. Some ethnic choices throughout the store. Sausage made in store by butcher. Very good and seasoned uniquely, not found in other stores both Polish and italian varieties.
The store is nice and clean and has a large variety of things that the other stores dont however I went there purposely to get the roast that were on sale and was told that they only have meat on sale on Saturdays which I think is really crazy. Saturdays are busy and crowded and Im partially disabled which makes it difficult to shop when everybodys pushing and shoving wont be shopping there again
Good selection but fresh produce isnt always fresh. Hense the discount store though. They take food stamps too , which is good.
Its small, but it has fresh meats better than the 1 in DA hood. Great T-bone steaks and fruit is fresh😊😋
There was almost black bananas moldy strawberry
Overall okay best time Id say to go would be between opening till 1. Never go after 2pm. Ugh I have noticed out dated items. I thought it was just a mistake but I have gone back to see more of the same. So I only purchase certain things.
I like this Save A Lot specifically because theyre always stocked. Its always clean and Ive never had a problem with the food I buy from here.
Shop here frequently. Great prices, good rotation of products. Some of the best strip and porterhouse steaks Ive had! Swear to god! Would have never thought. A good place to literally save cash in your shopping trip.
Manager is on Facebook calling people lazy and degrading others. Customer service skills are clearly not available here. Never have I seen someone be so blatantly rude to people on Facebook under the same ad looking for employees.
Good prices and a nice variety of food items from which to choose. Compared to a Tops or Wegmans, it is limited in the number of choices. However, if you are looking for the basics, you cant go wrong shopping at Save-A-Lot.
Airport plaza location is always clean & stocked.. I live 5 minutes from a different location & the prices are always higher & very little selection. So i do prefer Gen & Union store or Dingens. Rd location
A basic grocery store. Not a lot of choice for a person like myself, I dont eat beef or pork at all (personal choice.) Some name brands and store brands. Some good deals and decent prices. Could be cleaner, but its not disgusting.
Not as convenient as you think despite being located in a plaza at the corner of Genesee St Union Rd. Generally only 2 cashiers on duty, no express and no self check out. Picking up one or two items might mean 10+ minutes waiting to be able to pay for your purchase and leave.
Cashiers are always nice. The meat department goes out of their way to help you. I joked with one of the guys about wanting one of their in house sausages (chicken, spinach and feta its delicious) and he said ok Ill have it tomorrow. I went back the next day and sure enough he had made it. I go here as often as I can because of how close it is but also because I prefer some of their stuff and prices.
Clean aisles. Some name brands as well as other/store brands. Availability changes so watch ads. Meat aisle/butcher men are very helpful. Store takes cash or credit cards. Bring your own bags or purchase plastic bags.
Great customer service, great food, but the only thing I dont like about Save A Lot is that there no nacho lunchables, theres mostly turkey and cheese crackers, ham and cheese crackers, and theres only a couple pizza ones. Other than that its a great place to get your food from.
Didnt have a garlic and herb mattinas spaghetti sauce there thats always looking for, got the noodles and hamburger there but I like that other sauce Im trying the traditional, I want that garlic.
Ive been going to Save-A-lot since the first store opened & it has always been ok. Since then they have opened many stores & I have changed my mind about them, their food is reasonable, produce is really fresh & most of the people are courteous. Time will tell.
Store is never stocked. Just went in to shop and no meat was out. Empty boxes always in aisles. Butcher doesnt know how to cut or stock his meat case. And on 04/15/20 there was no sanitizing wipes to wipe carts, noone was sanitizing carts, no employee wore face masks or gloves. During this virus time all that should be done.
Limited selection, small grocery store , produce , meat , dairy with good prices. Nice not to have to walk a big grocery store for a couple items.
Good prices, and good parking. Very average for 10 years ago. With what Wegmans is doing though it really raises the bar. Nothing really bad to say. But nothing really stood out either. No shame in a 3*
Good savings on many products but you have to know your prices I found some that were cheaper elsewhere. Meats had a few good buys, like chicken drumsticks for .69/lb. Eggs, today, were 1.29 for a dozen of the large eggs. Pays to look around other stores too. Bargains are for you if you choose to shop around.
Amazing savings. Some of their stuff like the cheap bbq sauce and the breakfast sandwiches are legitimately better than paying top dollar for name brands.
CHECK YOUR RECEIPTSNearly every time Ive been in there something has rang up wrong at the register. Now i get once and a while theres an issue with a price, but this place must be doing something fishy as the prices are always higher than they are supposed to be. Seems like some kind of embezzlement going on as Ive never had an item ring up for less than the displayed price.Pay attention to the prices or theyll get you.
The low key best thing they stock is thier turkey breasts. Awesome price and great slow cooker meal. Their meats department for how small it is puts in big works. If youre looking for a cheektowaga establishment that is old school dirty buffalo this is it. Great people. Look at them in thier eyes... They love you.
I usually go here as a last resort. Good prices, but customer service is always mediocre at best, last time I went the cashier not only didn’t greet me, but held a conversation with the cashier next her the whole entire time, not one word was said to me. Smh.
Their meat looks fantastic better than Tops. Prices are good but if youre shopping for healthy, unprocessed or organic its not the place
Same food, cheaper price. Must bring your own bags or boxes to carry out to car. If you are taking public transport I suggest bringing something with wheels, as you are going to find things that you didnt expect--name brand items and once and awhile gourmet.
Nice place to shop, very humble place. Usually find everything I need and the stock of inventory is up to par. Friendly employees and costumers and nonchalant.
One of the managers and one of the cashiers spend a lot of time outside having a cigarette. They aren’t nice to the customers and they where not helpful to me at all. Nasty answers.
This is actually a pretty great store but I have 2 huge issues. Like other reviewers, have gone there and found them locking up well before closing (MADDENING!)My other issue is a bit sensitive. Keep in mind that Ive lived in such wonderfully diverse places as Toronto, LA and Honolulu and I thrive on that type of inclusiveness. But the owner of this place is asian and speaks barely a word of English and after this many years, its not only ignorant but insulting. Im good enough to take my money but not to communicate with me or even TRY? And, make no mistake, as great as the franchise is in general, Ive run into plenty of instances where they would do well to slightly bend a rule for customer satisfaction, but they do not. He LOVES his rules. Doesnt apply in reverse to when it comes to honoring closing time tho. GRRRRR. Guess Ill go back to the Lancaster store I always used before this one opened.
Many items not on shelves. Slow lines. Clean though and close to public transport. Also can get cash back with now fee! My go to grocer
It was good would have been better if the cashier wasnt having a full blown conversation with someone who was obviously visiting she made no eye contact with me or anyone else in her line for that matter not to mention she was also preoccupied with what was going on with her cell phone just rude terrible customer service
Friendly staff. Helpful. Great prices. I like shopping here.
I brought some meat and some baked greens. Got home to cook and both was spoiled. $13 wasted.
Always satisfied, personnel usually cordial and helpful and fairly competitive pricing.
Great food and price. Shop there all the time
I like shopping at the store its convenience near my home they have good prices but I would also like to see more variety of items in their store yet they dont have some of the other store that you can shop yet the price is right and I enjoy that very much I would recommend this store.
Seemed to be fairly well stocked, but did not see any sanitizing wipes for carts or hand sanitizer.
Cashier was so nice & kind. A parent was telling at her 3 year old because he was putting the shopping cart away. Was she serious or what.
Absolutely love this store and location. Anything they dont have they will check for you and will cut your meat anyway youd like etc.
Got a few things but they didnt have pressed burgers and CLASSIC sahlens. Nor hot dog buns and burger buns
Good grocery store. Good prices. Has bags that only cost 10¢. Unlike Sams Club, Savealot has bags
Great prices and very clean store. Also just wanted to say that Margaret they cashier was so professional and helpful.
I love this location. The store is very clean, the staff is nice and its located right off the expressway. I am a frequent shopper here and recommend this location.
Best save alot near me nice meat section and bigger produce area than most other stores in their chain
Good prices, nice employees, pretty clean. Great meats and produce
I love the Broadway market save a lot its so much good a got good meats there they got cheap me for a good price I got the stake for cheap price cars usually steak is expensive they got shrimp crab later cheap but as very expensive I like save a lot we can save a lot
In general, this store is okay, but the people that go to this store seem to have attitudes from time to time. Parking could be a challenge at times, because many people have the screw you attitude. If it wasnt for the store being near my house, I would much rather go to a different branch.
Hi..its 420 pm new yrs eve and you doors are not openinf..unless you are closed. Youve missed at least a dozen customers including me.
The store was clean, the cashier was friendly. I found many great things there
Great store and good prices !
Always get get all my grocery in a timely manner. Cashier is always polite when cashing out...
We do alot of shopping at Save Alot. The prices are amazing and they have good quality food.
Although the selection for what I need is limited Save-A-Lot is a good store when it comes to budget-friendly shopping.
Its not for me. They dont carry organics and gluten-free items but it works for others who shop there for discounted grocery.
Bought some baked goods and meat.Pork chops were delicious as was the lemon cake.
Got what I needed last minute and the customer service was just ok ..definitely not wegmans but hey you get what you pay for..
The store is always so very clean and well stocked. The staff is super helpful and polite.
I visit this store often it has everything youll need and more. Im very big on customer service and that was great
Its very clean and the staff is extremely friendly its my favorite spot
Nice place specially the meat manager. The meats are always fresh and pink.
Save-A-Lot is a store where I shop I find it very reasonable in price quality, in my purchases,and friendly cashiers, and assistance...
Pretty good service, prices better than Tops but not Wegmans or Price Rite, quality products and ignorant customers!
Good store but the selection of food isnt as good
The produce needs to be consumed quick. If it sits for even two or three days its done. Short of that this place is alright
This is a convenient place to shop when you want to do when youre wanting to do some quick shopping and want to save money at the same time
Store is very clean and never long waits in line. Always people on the floor working.
Not too busy at 5 pm, good prices on steaks!! Clean and well kept
Variety... Great prices... Friendly staff... Convenient location... Need more of a produce section...
Had the rudest cashier laughing at me because my bank card was declined little did he know that it was a bank error i contacted them through email and was never contacted pretty sad how i got humilitated from shopping there never again was so embarrassed
Always clean well stocked store. Definitely one of the better stores.
Great deals, Friendly people.Helpful butcher , takes the time to talk to you about the cuts of meat.
Great 👍 place to shop. If you shop at tops you will only get 1 bag at savealot you will get double your money worth
They always have fresh meat.
Very good guality/guantity of food & other products. Lady at check-out very pleasant.

2022-07-12My Experience at Save A Lot was very pleasant the store was clean and the cashier was friendly and funny. This is the place to shop, lines were short and prices were a little high, I guess thats the norm with the economy the way it is. Short wait time in line, got love this place.

2022-08-17Save-A-Lot does not impress me, and I didnt see any prices that were saving a lot. I walked out empty-handed.
Review №4
2022-02-16First time in a Save A Lot. I was surprised by the amount of items they carried and some are very discounted when compared to other stores. Lots of name brands. My 4 is because the entry was rather dirty and unappealing. It could use a good cleaning but the rest of the store was organized and much cleaner than my first impression would have expected.
Review №5
2022-07-18Under New Management so they are not honoring the sales that are advertised online or in the paper so you dont know what the sales are until you get in the store prices keep going higher every week you go in there they do have a lot of Asian and other ethnic foods now

2022-06-06Good store, good prices, friendly staff. Could be cleaned though.
Review №7
2021-12-18Shop there often and spend a few bucks every week .. at least 60$+ twice a week … because of this bs mask mandate was told to wear a mask at the register when cashing out .. why didn’t anyone tell me throughout my shopping trip ??. I SHOPPED THERE BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER BEEN HASSLED ABOUT A MASK TILL YESTERDAY.. I told the cashier I’ll just shop somewhere else .. was told “Good”.. no more business from me .. I’ll take my $$$ somewhere else. It’s a shame I’ve been shopping there since the opening of the store. Shopped without a mask during the pandemic but now it’s a problem ?..I’ll shop where my rights are recognized .. won’t EVER shop here again .. lost a lifetime customer..

2021-10-23I really like the variety and pricing this place offers. The staff is great as well. However, this place has a glaring flaw in that is typically has lesser hours than other Save-a-Lot stores and once we hit the fall-winter months, those hours shorten again. If youre a person that works during the day, it is difficult enough to get to a store before 9pm given some work shifts. The fall/winter hours have this place closing at 7pm on weekdays and a paltry 5pm on Sundays. I love this place, but I frequently just dont have the time to go to it because of the tight hours of operation.If you have time to go during open hours, you will find a small but adequate produce section, a decent meat selection, literally tons of dry and pantry goods, and a frozen section that can rival a major grocery chain. And of course, some great deals.

2021-08-13Be careful. Some fridge food is placed in a very hot, non-working refrigerator. A lady Ive never seen before (thin White woman, guessing some manager) said they dont need to be refrigerated. But EVERY store (including them in the past) in many states & countries Ive lived/been to my entire life have ALWAYS had these items refrigerated. I worked at a restaurant & they HAD TO be kept in the fridge. Every person I know keeps them in a fridge. I looked it up, & they SHOULD/MUST be refrigerated for freshness & life/shelf life. Sliced/whole pepperoni & bacon. At least BY a cold fridge so they can stay cool. Nope. They were enclosed in heat. I instantly felt how extremely warm they were. It was just as bad as leaving them outside in the sun. Which would make them go bad in just a matter of time. Pretty much selling expired food. 👎👎
