Drexel Foodtown — Local services in Trotwood

I went to Drexel Food Town because it is late and it is the only grocery store open on this side of town after 8:00 PM. The store was reasonably clean and the prices were a little higher than you would see at the bigger stores. But what impressed me the most what's the music playing. I AM 60 years old and used to R&B and a little rap. I was not familiar with the rap artist that was playing over the speakers. The music was unprofessionally loud in the language was terrible I heard the MF word no less than three times. When I got up to the checkout, lane 4, I asked the patron in front of me where do they do that at. The cashier rudely said “here”. Then the cashier said, “when you go out to your car you can listen to music that you like to listen to.” Then I said, “wow and great customer service also.” I realized that this is the only grocery store that's open on the West side after 8:00 PM. I also realize that is the end of the day and someone may have had a bad day. But don't the residents of the West side deserve a little more respect and a little better...

Prices are mostly much better that bigger chain grocery store, though oddly a few things are insanely more expensive. They've got all the right necessities for a small store, and my trips are always simple and short because they are very well organized. I wish the produce selection were a little bigger, and some of the fruits in particular are too over-ripe, but it is what you would expect for the size of the place. Their check cashing service is fantastic, surprisingly open policy and very inexpensive. I'm the type of person that makes huge grocery trips once a month at a store with tons of selection for the necessities, and then little trips once a week or so for perishables. Foodtown is excellent for the once...

Staff was helpful. Love the already cooked $1.99 chicken in the frozen department. Love the couch of kool-aid. Love that they have Kentucky border bologna. Love that they have public restrooms. Love that they have faygo pop. Love that they have fresh fruit and veggies. Love that they have a wide array of sale items weekly. Love that they are so helpful to each other as well as to customers. Thank ful for their generosity at giving back to Drexel neighborhood. It's difficult I imagine keeping up with the big guys grocery but keep up the good work and folks like ne will keep driving 40plus miles one way to shop your store. Thanks again...
