As it says on the description, this is a grocery store, but I wish they replaced the Katz sugar glazed raised donuts with the Katz chocolate donuts that have the granulated sugar like they used to have. They also carry gluten free Oat bread which is very good! It's also the only place in the area that still carries Glutino Tablets and crackers in the small box.
Recently updated store has TONS of GF options. I used to have to bring almost everything from home but not anymore. Great selection
This grocery has educated people in the deli which serves Boar's Head meats and cheeses. I purchased pre-packahed items since there was a long line to wait for freshly cut. I've had no reaction. Obviously, as a store, they do have other gf items like Schar bread, some snack foods, as well as standard groceries.
They have a dedicated Gluten free section on the shelf and in the freezer. They have other GF options spread out throughout the store.
However, they do not have many gluten free foods that I know are available at other Stop and Shops in the region, and that's really frustrating. They could have a wider variety as well.
This location just expanded the GF section! Great options for bread, baking, and snacks. There are also GF items available throughout the aisles as well. Be sure to check out the bakery section where they have bagels and cupcakes/cookies. They also have a frozen section with bread and other products!
Some gluten free options. They have breads, pizzas, pretzels, etc. They have some boxed baked goods as well, none in the bakery though that is precooked (as far as I know). They do not have a wide variety though. They do not carry any of the gluten free feel good food items — which are the best gluten free frozen food preparations. Big y tends to have better selection in all categories. Big y on memorial drive has the best gluten free selection around besides Whole Foods. Big y has gluten free bakery options. Also, sometimes at this stop n shop location I find non gluten free foods in the gluten free section, so be careful.
Great selection of gluten free items! Fruits and veggies always look fresh. Some of my go tos are the Organic grilled chicken strips, natures promise hummus, Aqua Vitea kombucha,yasso ice cream bars,nada moo ice cream,siete tortillas and chips, odoughs bagel thins,dr.pragers brocolli bites, Amy brocolli and cheedar bake,calipower pizza and rhythm califlower bites
This is a great local grocery store with lots of GF options and union labor. Our current go-to.
The bakery has a few gluten free items, cupcakes and cookies are about it but they place other items on the table so read it carefully. As for other items, they have one aisle which has gluten free but they don’t highlight it . The only section that actually highlights gluten free is the yogurt section. Excellent marking as to what’s gluten free and what’s not. For that reason, I gave it two stars
They have huge sections of gluten free items that are well stored and a big variety of items
This for the Stop and Shop in Vernon CT. This used to be a great place to get GF products. Everything was located in one dedicated section and the selection was extensive. Someone in management decided to scrap this concept. I asked the manager (on 6/18/18) why and he said it was a decision from "corporate" so this may be coming to all of the chain!
Now everything (except the frozen goods) is mixed in with the non GF food and as best as I could tell the amount of GF is considerably less. For example, I looked for Snyder's GF pretzels. There dozens of non GF and only one GF. The frozen GF is separate but the selection is 1/3 of what it used to be. SO YESTERDAY WAS THE LAST DAY I WILL GO INTO THE STORE. Not just for GF but for anything else.
Recently moved to the area, had always shopped at the Stop and Shop on Fenn Road in Newington and they carried more certified GF then I could dream of, possibly because of competing with Whole Foods. Naturally I brought my business to this old Saybrook Stop and Shop when I moved and it’s lack luster to say the least. Sure they have a selection, but it’s no where near as great as Central Connecticut.
Good variety of gluten free foods, cookies, bagels, frozen chicken tenders, etc. Some items like gluten free flour was pricey, though.
this is my gluten free go to supermarket. plenty of options in gluten free section and throughout store at reasonable prices and many specials at times.
It actually has solid gluten free options. Better than any other grocery store in LB.
