Lots of good things to choose from if you want a quick home cooked meal.
This is the only supermarket in Princeton area that I can reliably find Horizon skim milk, and that WAS the only reason why I shopped there. I prefer Wegmans for their baked foods, produce, and fruits selection. Trader Joe's have much interesting options for snacks. Whole Foods can be an emergency stand-in. But McCaffrey's no more. A few months back I ordered a birthday cake several days before my daughter's birthday over the phone. I specifically requested a cake for five. When I arrived to pick up, I got a very small cake that was probably good for 2-3 people but definitely not for five. I asked the person behind the counter. He told me in a straight face that the cake was definitely big enough for five. I called his manager and she apologized, and pulled out an already-made cake for five and sold that to me instead. More recently we went there one weekend afternoon for grocery shopping. When done we used their self-checkout lane. Throughout the whole scanning process, we were closely watched by their employees standing right next to us. They intervened multiple times to make sure we did it right because some of their produce didn't have labels. We felt very disrespected for being treated like suspected thieves. Fine. You profiled us due to our race. You will not have our business anymore.
They are very good about reserving an to be pinched up later
Wow! Wow! Wow! If you want "The Food Shopping Experience of Your Lifetime" shop at this store. As far as selection, quality, quantity and ambience of a "super" market, this place is the "Superman" of food stores. Take a ride, take your time and investigate this place for yourself. You will not be disappointed. (And, while your there, you may want to try the creamed coleslaw. It's one of my favorites.)

I did self-check out. The staffs were in front of me watching me check out “every single” step, and stopped me 4 times to check my items. There were other 6 check out stations and so many people there, they eyed on us, Asian couple for what reasons? I self checked in Wholefood or other stores many times , have never been so “”cared” and to be honest is intuitively humiliating. Later an old white lady came to me yelled at me said I was in self checked, I shall be watched. What? I have never thought now the society has gone this far that I thought self check out is a favor for store staffing also for customers to be able to self pacing check out not to be thrown products. Anyway, ethos town was never friendly to diversity, and this store self check is disgusting!!

Too expensive and the meat is rotten. Dairy expired but still on the display.

I went shopping at McCaffrey’s Princeton and was in awe! The store looked like a winter wonderland filled with everything that I needed for the holidays. The displays were very well-presented and they have so many Christmas gifts and stocking stuffers, I personally bought hot chocolate sticks and Godiva gift box for my kids teachers. The staff is very pleasant and go above & beyond! I was very pleased with my experience at McCaffrey’s and will be returning again for all my holiday shopping needs!
Came in to this store about 3 times to shop for instacart each time I was watched by workers and stared at the self checkout the entire time and no one else was being scudded but me. They even called for backup ( so there were 3 workers watching me) when I was simply just checking out my items. Very uncomfortable to shop here as a BLACK PERSON. Although the store is nice and the lobster rolls are delicious the workers are VERY RUDE and not helpful at all I would ask where an item was and each worker I would ask would tell me they didn’t sell it then I would find it myself seemed like no one wanted to help me. I will never step foot in this store again. If I could give zero stars I would.
Got my thanksgiving dinner from McCaffrey's. To say it was disappointing is an understatement. The stuffing was watery, the mashed potatoes were like spackle, the brussel sprouts had no flavor, the rolls were unremarkable... Nobody wanted to take leftovers.. it was embarrassing. For what I paid, I expected it to be much much better. I will never order from there again.
Hello I came into the store couple days ago it's a great store unfortunately the prepared food worker was very rude and talking about something totally inappropriate with one of your male cashiers I believe his name tag said Keith very inappropriate work behavior. Talk disgusting about females and the male cashier was laughing 😃 and on his cellphone. I don't understand why no one could see or hear this disgusting conversation taking place. This was at your Princeton nj location. I will let you know this in not the first time I heard these 2 gentlemen talking in this manner.
