Pioneer Supermarkets of Harlem

It’s a decent grocery store. They don’t have too many prices on items, which I believe is a marketing trick to have you pay more at the register. This is the case with their eggs, where the colorful boxed eggs that you would assume are cheaper are actually the most expensive eggs! They are the best place to go for bulk rice, where as of mid-2022 a 10lb bag of rice is $9.99 and a 20lb bag is $13.99. I do like they they have fresh baked bread rolls that you can get 3 for around $2. Great for sandwiches or just to add dips. Store doesn’t have bags FYI! Be prepared to either pay for bags, use your own bags, or carry the groceries.

Ladies and gentlemen pay very close attention to each item as it is scanned. Today I experienced my tomatoes ringing up at $2.99 lb when the sign in fact read $1.69 - here you will see the difference in the photo. Thank goodness I caught it! In addition, the detergent sign stated $1.99 and rang up at $2.49, then to top it off the clerk charged me twice for the same item. I had to make a return trip to the store just to get my refund. Today was my last trip to this place, I will resume driving to the grocery store in areas outside of the city. Overpriced and deceitful! Shop at your own risk!

Claims to close at 11PM but stops letting people in way before that. I *BEGGED* to please go grab one item and they did not let me in, even though the store still had a decent amount of people shopping.

Too many rats in this store and they sale bad meats and old bread,don’t shop here or you will regret it

2025: Many good selections at decent prices. Definitely a need in this neighborhood. One of the better local supermarkets with a decent selection at affordable prices.

Good prices, selection, clean, smart staff.

The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. A lot of customers are very rude- three times I’ve had people barge in front of me on line and claim they were in line first- be wary of shoppers in a rush. Prices are high, but sales are good. Open later than other nearby groceries.
