Market District by Giant Eagle Supermarket — Local services in Liberty Township

The grocery section is fine, nothing special, nothing bad. Average grocery store to me. However the liqueur/wine/beer area drives me nuts. Many issues.

1. open the darn door already. They have a separate door for this area, and it's been non-usable for like a year.
2. people that work is that section just seem to wonder around, and not be behind the counter. You will stand there in front of an open register for like 5min before anyone comes to check you out. Then when they finally notice you, they are like "oh, Are you ready?" No i'm just standing here in front of the register because i like the view...of course I'm ready.
3. sometimes nobody ever even comes. The register is open...you stand around waiting to be helped...but nobody ever comes. So then you have to go find an employee because you need an item that is locked up. Then that employee has to find someone with a key.

I started my journey in this Giant Eagle because of the pharmacy, It's close to my home, and even when it's peak hours, I can get in and out. There are a variety of items to choose from, and most items are easy to find and accessible it's nice and clean and I like it that there is a little corner flower shop...the store can get busy but you are not bumping into people...I also recommend this store because the Pharmacy Staff is excellent as well as the store staff...I must admit I vacillate between the stores in the Powell area but each one of them has that little something that makes it unique...so vist this Giant Eagle and tell them...
