Pioneer Supermarket

Hit or miss. Meat is always a miss. But at times nice vegetables. Good mix of shelved items. Ranging from excellent to over priced. Good sales. Good beer selection.

Great local supermarket in an area that is rapidly gentrifying. Easy in and out. The closest next options are fairway or Trader Joe’s both of which are incredibly stressful to navigate.

Pioneer is a survivor in an environment roiled by every kind of e-shopping and ever larger supermarkets. It helps that they have more than 200 brands of beer in stock. At this point in their life they are upgrading the shopping experience with new fixtures and displays as well as checkout semi-automation. They used to cater to an aging-out blue collar clientele. With the physical renovation and extended prepared food (MRE!) choices and generally higher quality offeringsI see more and more younger white collar shoppers picking up dinner on the way home from what passes for work nowadays. My first after-school paying job was in 1942 in a small supermarket near the Coliseum in wartime Los Angeles. The layouts of contemporary Columbus Ave. Pioneer and (I forget the name) Supermarket 75 years ago are virtually interchangeable. Obviously not much choice laying out a rectangular store with the registers in front. More to why you are reading this review. The management in this Pioneer is truly hands-on and solves any issues (or really tries) immediately. The stockers working all the time and all over the store are extremely helpful. For many decades they have operated six days a week, but this year they are now open seven closing an hour early Sunday night. With all the compliments I am showering on Pioneer, if Fairway for some reason decided to open on Columbus nearby, Pioneer would be very challenged.
