Located in old city. Small store so it gets crowded quickly but is very busy as it serves the surrounding community

On multiple occasions, have had to return moldy fruit and out of date food, once chicken that was on shelf almost a month longer than it should be. They shrug and refund. Not even an apology.

The staff are friendly and help new customers find their way around when you ask them. There's a seating area with some short tables or a high bar, next to a microwave as well, along with plastic wear for eating. Definitely a really nice sitting place, and everything is usually really neat and in stock

We mostly love our local Acme. It's Well stocked, great sales, mostly friendly staff. Sometimes, checkout is long as there's only one register open with a cashier. The parking lot is a great plus, but, unfortunately, it's not monitored so people park in the one handicapped spot without tags (one time, a couple parked there and went to the cvs across the street, another time, a young lady parked there to go to the gym down the street. They didn't have handicapped tags. I notice this as my MIL is disabled. People just park wherever they want on busy days and many aren't Acme customers. They should start ticketing and towing. Overall, great, beloved grocery store!

Any local will tell you that the location of this Acme is convenient. That alone garners stars. The produce is lacking and often looks a little old for the shelf. When the added beer & wine, along with a "cafe" eating section it only mades a cramped store even more so.
