Nice place. Has most items that youd need in a pinch. Grocery items, toilet paper, seasonal decorations, etc. Prices are modest too.

The staff is so unprofessional. They dont want me to shop there no more. Because sometimes when I go there, the staff is really lazy and slow. So one day, I had an issue with the cashier. I had purchased my stuff and I was waiting for the cashier to give my cashback because I used my debit card. As I am waiting for the cashier to give me my money, hes having a full conversation with someone. Which was fine but he seemed to be deliberately moving very slow. I was standing there for like 3 to 5 mins for the cashier to give me my money. So I asked him to hurry up because I felt like whatever he was talking about was distracting him. So an argument broke out because he claimed he can do whatever he likes. There was a long line waiting for him to deal with the next customer. I told him hes was being unprofessional. And in front of everyone he literally says he doesnt care. The employee is a dark African American with dreads, cashier was extremely high by the way.

I like family dollar but one downtown is usually not stocked n I see the carts in aisles full of boxed merchandise, but no one working on it. N always one person up front. But I like the prices for certain things, but one on State St. They need to hire ppl.

The prices are great but the store stock is not!!

The staff is amazing. Always friendly and are very kind to their regulars. The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is because they always seem to be out of one of the main things I go there for. And I know that is no one in particulars fault. But it is very frustrating. But I do love the store and most of the employees. I actually stopped in late on easter (surprised they were open regular hours), and the store was very clean. And being a regular I know how hard that is to do with all the foot traffic they get daily. The manager there is always helpful and friendly. I know this store well since I am there almost everyday. Keep up the great work.

Review №23

I was asked to work in the store for one day to help out, I come from South Jersey. I have been to over a dozen family dollar stores to help out. This was appalling. Customers were rude, one was so bad we had to call the police, Theft is off the charts. And generally, an unflattering place to shop. Place was an absolute mess, 15-20 people in line during the 9 hours I was there, and one customer was drinking a shot of alcohol while inside the store. And that was during 1 shift. How the hell do people work there every day? Id be fired after 3 days.

Prices are good. Staff and management are awful, especially management. The staff can speak to you anyway, management does not care and is usually present and they do nothing. One cashier, usually its the new person alone. Prices are good and its close to home

Review №27

I have always had good customer service at this location. The cashiers & the manager were always helpful to me. Its always crowded because its located in downtown Trenton. I have witnessed customers curse them out, threatened to physically harm them & even throw money at them. So if u have so many issues with the store & employees, maybe u should try a different Family Dollar.

Obviously a Dollar Store in downtown Trenton is probably expected to be lacking. This place in particular looked as though nobody worked there besides a couple shady looking guards and a cashier. The place was filthy, checkout was slow.P.S. Prepare to be asked for bus fare outside the store.

I believe anything you purchase for family purposes should be a dollar word!!

Review №32

Negative stars in my opinion. This company is not about FAMILY at all. They dont care for the safety of their employees and customers. You think they would step up security due to the recent robbery. They need an armed guard or a police officer. A lot of dangerous people in the area. People always stealing. Being ignorant and threatening staff. Theres NO reason this place needs to close at 9pm. Close at 6pm like the rest of the stores downtown.

They need to have more then one cashiers especially in rush hours and also have it a little more clearner.....

Review №34

I went in there specifically for a bottle brush, and the only ones they had were in a set for 6$ or 10$.. N as I dont need anything else in the set it seemed ridiculous to spend that much..Usually though I find what I need without problem

I was never so insulted in a store. I had a cart with over $50 in merchandise and the street thug security guard accused me of trying to steal a $1.00 pack of licorice. Its a shame they cant afford real security.

The manager is a complete moron, rude, has an attitude, is incompetent, cant work a register, and is the most ignorant man I ever met. I will never shop at the 117 E. State St.Trenton,NJ 08608 Location again. I wouldnt even give it one star exept for the fact its the only way I could post this. In I give it negative five stars.

The place is very messy and they only have one cashier during lunch hour. Finally, another cashier came to help after the line had about 15 people.

Ca
Review №61

They need more cashiers the line can get long and theres not enough cashiers to get the customers out the store quicker! The sad part is I heard an employee say we know its going to be like this when we get here so why complain which means to me theyre not looking forward to making improvements, so just settle and thats not good for business.
