The store is normally clean, it used to have a smell not recently. I can get just about everything I need for my seafood 🦞 boil here.

I shared some photos of barbecued pork chops I bought and cooked from there. A family pack…They were dirt cheap ($6) and they looked good at the store. I brought them home and cooked them the next day. To my surprise they were black/purple and brown after cooked. Very hard and crunchy. I don’t recommend anybody buying them. Cheap but no good. The taste alone after a couple’s of bites made me sick. I also bought chicken wings and legs. Now I didn’t have a problem with them. They were okay.

Giant Penny is a nice grocery store with a lot of reasonable products. It has a lot of items but not huge variety. It's not too pricey compared to its neighbors.

This is STILL the place to go to get your MEATS! Yes! Prices are up. They are up EVERYWHERE!! But these guys have a HELLA selection....
I've given up on Food Lion on the PLAZA when it comes to meat selection and keeping the cases STOKED!!
Giant Penny hasn't let me down ONCE!!!
THANK YOU GIANT PENNY!!

I’m from the rural/country parts of NC and I had been looking for stores that carried items that I could easily find at grocery stores back home. Most of the big chain grocers just don’t carry certain things. People had been recommending Giant Penny and I finally went. So glad I did! They have almost all of the items I’m used to seeing back home. The prices are reasonable, meats look fresh and high quality. The produce looked pretty good too.

The store is obviously in an older building and it has that old building smell, but it definitely doesn’t stink. The store is neat and clean. You won’t find tons of a variety of items, but they do have all the staples and, like I said, many of foods I’m used to seeing at the rural/country grocers. Staff is friendly. It is definitely going to be a regular stop for me now.

I travel 45 minutes to shop this store. I have been there @three times. I have purchased packs of chicken wings. Twice the chicken pack was spoiled. All other purchases was very good. I called and was told about the store policy, that if I was unhappy about my purchase, I should return it the same day or next day. Once again I traveled 45 minutes away. All I'm saying is the manager could of suggested a new pack and from there I would be mindful of their policy and choose more carefully when selecting my meat packages.

Great deals on meat! I love their chicken wings because their small with no steroids & fresh cut! They have a great seasoning selection! I found seasoning I can’t find at a food lion or Walmart! Just don’t buy their Luigi Italian ice. It’s cheaper at Food Lion

The best meat selection in town. I drive from Concord just to get their meats. This place is truly a landmark in the community. I hope it stays around for more years to come.
