La Esperanza Supermarket — Local services in Newark

Live right around the corner since september. They recently placed a new rule to make sure anyone who doesnt speak fluent spanish(namely black ppl) HAVE to purchase a bag and absolutely cannot walk out without one if you dont bring your own. So basically scamming an already impoverished city for 10cents at a time. ( mind you i normally bring bags but today only needed a couple cans and some tp, its a recession and i been out of work) And this policy was told to me (and my husband before) directly by the male owner. He had female workers do the vicious bidding. Dont appreciate any of the treatment. A pity theyre able to have such a coveted location in this area in the states biggest city. Big bad business...

This is in my neighborhood so I frequent it often other than the prices of the meats jumping Sky High I have no other complaints about this place besides their ground beef needs to be grounded with more fat it's very very lean like literally no fat at all dries out...

Great for shopping on the go but you must be careful of what you buy, like the meats can be expired or close to expiring. So you might not want to get your meats from there if you're not planning on cooking...
