First time shopping at the Commissary @ Newport Naval Station. Cant say enough about how great of a place it is! Everything that we purchased there was much cheaper than what my wife and I pay at any of the supermarkets off base! Although the selection of some of the brands was limited, we were able to purchase everything we needed and had on our list.. The Commissary was clean and organized well. All of the employees we encountered there were very friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make our shopping a wonderful experience! Great job Commissary employees!Well definitely come back!
Ha! I actually 4got how much cheaper & less occupied the Navy Commissary was compared 2 regular grocery stores. Hmph...
Workers very nice n friendly. Always willing to help someone find something or check the back to see if they have anymore. Always have a smile on. N the prices r very good.
Great amenity! Every time Im close I stop in.
The meat prices are the best on the island. I wish the produce was a litter better, however, I am a regular shopper here.
Good place fast check out.
I always love to go shopping there because its closer to the house, cheaper, friendly cashiers, baggers and simply loved it
My stepdad, a veteran, was very disappointed in the prices. Not a lot of variety. We did not end up purchasing anything and he does not want to return
Good selection for a smaller store. Staff always seems friendly even when dealing with boo birds.
Always a good shopping experience. A great retiree benefit for us!!
Wonderful experience here today. Staff extremely helpful; produce manager made sure we could find what we needed. Dave and Paul in the meat department were outstanding and even checked for items in other departments for us. Wonderful selection of products throughout the store. Dennis at checkout was courteous and efficient. Well done Commissary team.
Always helpful staff.
I take my Mother, only place she will shop
Usually a Tues is good. Meat Department was wonderful. Fresh veg not so good. I stock up on paper products..cleaners..and dairy..for a good bargain.
Love the commissary. Save about 20 percent on groceries.
I love this base! Everything is so easy to find and the employees are so kind and sweet! Had a very playful experience today with our 1.5 yr old in the Uniform shop... the prices at the commissary was definitely worth the hour drive from Cape Cod
Visiting my son. Happy to have gone inside to browse. Very clean, organized and extensive selection.
Great customer service and great variety of everything you need
Great staff
Love this store. Military families can survive with all the savings that they get in every department! Sale prices every day! One of the many great benefits that the military provides for its families !
Nice place to shop if your military. Good prices and good selection of food items.
For the first time but great to do it 🙂
Generally you cant beat the meat prices. Like any other place you need to know your prices. Milk, eggs, frozen food prices are very good. Paper products not so much, cheaper at other places. Overall nice place, they did a good job with the remodel but some of the selection has gone away but still overall I like it.
Excellent customer service; butchers, cashiers, wide selection of fresh produce, meat and dry goods...save lots of $$$$
Always great staff and food available. Monday is stock day for veggies and fruits so I always go Tuesdays!
I got ginger so yes great place
Wonderful and friendly staff and you can get most of your grocery needs
Commissary is a little small compared to most bases but they keep it well stocked.
Good groceries, quality and atention
Supremely well managed and operated, possibly the best small commissary in CONUS.
Your typical commissary on a small base. They have all the essentials. I like their produce a lot more than the grocery stores out in town. And, unlike the rest of Newport, they still have plastic bags!
What is not to like? They have just updated the facility and did a bang-up job. Clean, organized and now modern and efficient. Prices can not be beat, even by the warehouse stores. You have to love the baggers, remember to remind them that you tip on the total amount of the bill NOT the number of bags... But they will fill them fuller if you ask. The deli is especially excellent with the service, and fresh items. Maybe a trip to get there but always worth it. It is about time to be open 7 days a week, dont you think? And maybe a bit later in the evening.
Super friendly staff. The commisary manager is Sue is always around to help. Butchers will cut you and beef cut you want.
My cashier had pneumonia, and I had to watch her handle all of our food with our infant in my arms. I called after we left to voice my concern to management, and they assured me that pneumonia wasnt contagious, but some pneumonia are contagious.
Your military or dependent ID required to enter. Good selection of American and foreign products, great prices and worth the little bit of time it takes to get to it. the commissary is worth the time and effort. Better selection of fresh vegetables is had locally in season but during the winter, the selection is fine and as fresh as can be had.The selection of European and Asian products rivals those in commissaries on foreign soil.
A life saver! I stayed in billeting for a month. My visits to the commissary saved me a lot of money. It was never too busy here. Highly recommend!
Has everything you need in a commissary. Low prices and tax free. Definitely use this place every time I come to Newport.
Seems like this small commissary cannot keep up with demand. Not enough varied organic produce and grocery products
Prices are comparable to Aldi, however Aldi is more accessible as a normal grocery store for permanent personnel.Great quick lunch options in the deli.
Great Commissary with a great selection of everything in a very clean store. The people who take care of and are working there are very considerate of the customers.
Excellent selection and serviceEasy to find things, prices good and checkout folks fantastic
Routinely live months out of NGIS / Sues Chalet. I split my between Comissary, Trader Joe (Warwick), and Italian Deli’s in Federal hill.Cons:The shelves (especially mid week in produce) get a little sparse.Smaller selection than Shaw or Stop & Shop.Pros:Prices are the best in Newport.Produce / Meat are fresh.Staff is top notch.Lines (if any) are the shortest of any commissary I have been to. But this also isn’t fleet concentration area.
I have had some awesome experiences here from staff and management. From great customer service to the manager giving my kids cookies once. Baggers work for tips, so bring a couple extra dallars for them.
Always find everything Im looking for
The deli is my favorite place to grab lunch on base! As a small supermarket I can always find what I need or reasonable substitute.
Spacious, clean, diverse selection, some good prices, good staff.
The manager sue (i think) popped out of nowhere and gave my kids cookies. Made my whole day. This place has great staff.
Its the commissary. The veggie and fruit section for organic items is very minimal, so we often have to shop in town. Otherwise you can still find lots of needed items.
Great customer service...
Great. Could do better checking dates on food. Meat in frozen cases sometimes expired. Checkers, baggers, deli and butchers excellent. Thank you for all your improvements
Clean, efficient, good prices. May not meet all our grocery needs but certainly helps keep costs down!
Always has friendly people helping you and your family members
Good prices, as always for a USN Commissary, though store layout is inexplicably different than most grocery stores, making it somewhat difficult to find certain products. It is a medium-small location, so dont expect a wide selection or they having any more exotic foods.
I love the comasarry. Always have what we need at such a good price. They take coupons as well. So some times you can catch there sale items woth a coupon and get a amazing deal
Updated shopping area is easy to use and get around for shopping. Every aisle is well marked.
Very well stocked...friendly service
Great prices! I find things here I cant find anywhere else. I love their deli department, too.
Amazing the prices of pork are simply amazing...the best kept secret of the perks of career military perks....
Great prices and employees super nice and helpful.
This commissary is pretty small, makes sense for the size of the base but it is still kinda frustrating if you come from any place with a bigger commissary.
Ive always treated very well whenever Im shopping at the commissary the staff - very willing to help me out with anything I need again l.have been going to the commissary here in Newport for many a year and l shall continue. thank you
Great place to shop helps with the budget
Nice store with fairly good selection
Love my commisary! Worth the trip!
Pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff. Great selection. Clean store.
Great location and ample offerings. Nice sized commissary.
Clean and quiet place to shop. Good selection!
Don’t forget to tip your bagger. They volunteer.
Great variety of items and international foods!
Great selection of food and meat high quality. Been shopping here for over 40 years.
Good enough for such a small base. Prices good.
The customer service is really good, everything is pretty easy to find. Though there isnt a very large selection of goods.
Good deal if you have military Id.
Good store for groceries.
Although its under construction theyre trying to the best of their ability to keep things running smoothly.
Small but in the process of being remodeled. Looks like it will be good once remodeling is complete.
Its disappointing that I have to go to Stop and Shop after I go to the commisary. There are NUMEROUS items that are not available. Empty shelves is making it not worth the trip. If I didnt work on the base I probably would not even shop there. Look out Newport, Market Basket is coming to Fall River and that will be my grocery store unless you change. Remember that you change us an extra 5% at checkout and then we have to give the baggers a few buck for their work.
They do a great job w the size they have. Id like to see more grass fed/pasture raised meat.
Go commissary workers! Go baggers! Yay Team
Friendliest staff of any commissary Ive ever been too.
Great prices and a good selection
Decent commissary. Self checkout available.
