Jungle Jim’s is the theme park of grocery stores!
As a child, I remember going to “jungle Jim’s”, but this WAS an indoor children’s amusement park! It is now permanently closed. By the looks of everything seen in the video, it looks like they repurposed some kiddie rides. I’m just going to believe that this is because Jungle Jim’s(amusement park) was so successful that it moved on to become the ultimate themed supermarket.
AMINESTO Most of the rides are from King’s Island, Coney Island (Cincinnati), and Americana (aka LeSourdsville Lake).
Danny Kidd, sure. Way to ruin the fun. I, PERSONALLY, am going to believe what I just said, for fun. FOR FUN TIMES SAKE. For fun times sake, i will believe my story. My story, the history I created for jungle Jim’s, is much more satisfying, and I’m sure everyone else would love to believe my story. You see, sometimes historical accuracy doesn’t matter. Sometimes, and I do mean sometimes, no one gives a fuck about the Wikipedia page for a supermarket, and before the internet, it would have been really fun to spread a rumor, for the children, like the one I came up with. The world is a much more wonderful place if you still believe in Santa.
@@aminestoisthebesto806Spreading false information isn't fun.
I agree. Like the leftist media for example. Great example of how spreading misinformation isnt fun. Perpetuating harmless children’s myths can actually be harmful for children with autism. But yeah, would you like to be right some more? I can fluff your ego all day.
Fun fact: The monorail you see over the entrance was actually the one used at King's Island's Lion Country Safari. It sat abandoned for over twenty years until it was refurbished for Jungle Jim's.
woah that’s cool i love kings island. i go to jungle jim’s a couple times a year it’s so fun.
Got my first kiss from my first love in one of those monorail cars back in 1977. Your fun fact brought that memory back and I thank you
Some lady?!?! That's Lucille ball from I love Lucy in the grape stomping episode!
Lol I was thinking the same thing. How dare you, sir. How DARE you! ;)
No accounting for someone so Culturally Illiterate that they can't recognize....Lucille Ball! LOL.
What I expected was a quirky, old, decrepit grocery store. What I got was a grocery store with THE BEST selection of all things food with an absurd amount of theming.... I think I need a Jungle Jim's.
1:18 that's a Playmobil figure dude :)
Dangit, that’s what I meant
@@TheCarpetbagger that right there is cursed
You keep going to my favorite childhood places. Jungle Jims is what started my love of animatronics. I used to beg to go there growing up just so I could see all of them. Color me surprised when I found out that they were Pizza Time/Chuck E Cheese characters!
Man, now I feel old. Doesn't feel like it's even been open that long. Guess to me, it hasn't.
Some of them have been made to look a little different and are used at other places. It is surprisingly that people don't recognize or remember them as being from Chuck e cheeses.They made alot of them and stores closed
I loved the “cart cam” footage. Pinocchio was stealing Geppeto’s toupee. The toupee is mentioned in the book, but Disney left it out of the movie.
My husband is from Hamilton. Loved going there when we'd visit the family. Truly is an awesome store.
I clicked on it because of the thumb nail but decided to watch the whole thing. Seems like a .very interesting place thanks for posting it. Have a great day everyone.
I now feel like I have been deprived my whole life of grocery shopping. I will forever hate walking into any grocery store , for now I know just how boring they really are. Thanks You have ruined my otherwise enjoyable time of the week for the rest of my life.. lol
I Am Barbara Ann LOL ! I agree! One of my best friends is named Barbara Ann!
I'm not an artist I just draw I also live near it but have no idea why you would say it’s not as amazing as it looks, it’s always a great experience
And he didn't even show half of it. There's a theater showing the story of jungle Jim and it's free. A cupcake bar, Korean fusion restaurant, etc.
I've lived in Cincinnati my entire life and was Culinary Director at Jungle Jim's for a while. It is truly insane. Working there was the most fun I've ever had, by far. Sitting in the employee break room which is in a hidden 2nd floor room that looks out over the entire store in two directions, chatting with the guy who ran the INSANELY HUGE soda section, sipping on whatever sodas he wanted to try that day. My Korean grandma cook (we have cooks that demo food) would be eating some stinky, delicious kimchi a few chairs away from us. The cheese girls would come up in their lab-coat looking mocks. We'd talk cheese for a bit while they tried our sodas. Good times...
@@almostremembered m(__)m
With my ADD I would get so distracted in there, I would have to be rescued by the Coast Guard. I would also spend all my money and then be like...😟...what happened?! Jungle Jim made me do it!! 😂
imagine getting kids rustled up & out the door! with groceries too!😨
daytripper9 omg...it would be like being in the maze from The Shining 😂☠️!
That is a really cool store! I love the bathroom entrance lol. 👍
This is the first video I watched on your channel from a while back
For the authentic Jungle Jim's, the original is it. Still my favorite. My family has shopped with Jim since he was a stand on High St. I have to say, I love that he genuinely has enjoyed doing what he does. 5 Generations of my family have been loyal customers for my whole life.
So much fun! It’s like a mall. There’s a restaurant, bakery. . .Even a little theater that tells the history of this place!
Jungle Jim's new grocery store location is kid themed and i like it 👍.
This is a really nice store. Thanks for video.
Much success and health to all.
Now that’s some fresh seafood. Very cool. Thought they only did that in China, Japan etc.
Jungle employee here- Fairfield's Pedro animatronic is back up and running. I remember some disappointment about him before lmao
I would love to go through this store, it's retro and fun.
Oh, it's a blast. Just gotta be careful, you could drop a couple hundred bucks in an hour easy.
Went there in May. From Kentucky. Awesome
No more soda!! Yeah!!!
Fun fact: Jungle Jim is Jim Carrey in Ace Ventura when nature calls.
No it's not.
Quarantine shopping just got funky-
That was interesting. I have never even heard of Jungle Jim's grocery store.
Well if that's the case no offense your missing out!
this is the one I go to, so awesome and so many variety’s of cultural foods!!
That was LUCY stomping grapes ! Love it !
I knew that too 😂😂😂
yes @MichaelMoore -- on the "i love lucy" tv show,,, they went to Europe and she was stomping grapes in Italy,,, funny show,, love how she turned all purple by the end
Think the lady stomping grapes by the outhouse was a reference to Lucy.
omg this place is amazing!! how is there not more of them!!
I wonder that exact same thing every time I go in there.
Is it strange that this is one of my favorite videos you’ve done? Lol!
Carrie Morgan thats one grocery store that Id like to check out one day.
Yes, it's very strange.
Al Bundy it sure looks like it!
That is now the coolest grocery store I've ever seen! #roadtrip
A few years ago when we first spoke, you told me you had no real intentions of going back to Ohio....... You like Ohio don't you CB? Lol and as always Horse!
Great video as usual. That looks like a fun place full of cool specialty items.
Here's a couple of observations:
Maybe it's just me, but Mr. Vino looks a lot like Edgar Allen Poe.
That wasn't a millstone, it was a grindstone. Maybe it was there to sharpen cheese knives.
Glad you told what that was . I thinking about that . 👍
Jeez, with a chin like that, I wouldn't be surprised if Jungle Jim were related to Glenn Quagmire!
Giggity
VERY Cool! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for visiting my home town, i dont live there anymore. It always nice to see people hoing to jungle Jim's, it was always my favorite place as a kid, and i love going whenever i visit family. Wonderful video ♥️♥️♥️♥️
WE MUST BUILD A WALL….. made of rice of COURSE!
this is a kind of store i would see in my dreams
The 'millstone' that you turned by hand is actually a knife sharpener. When I was little the 'knife sharpener guy' used to push a cart with one of those on it down our street. My mom would hand me a bunch of our knives and some money, and I'd run outside so he could sharpen them - and they'd wind up literally razor-sharp!!!!
If I lived nearby, yeah, I’d shop there.
We live three hours away and go once a year. This is the better location. I have Vlogs at both. I'd say its worth a drive just to see it.
You don't live in Ohio?
I live 49 minutes away from eastgate mall
Amazing place. Love their hot sauce section!
Surprised nobody caught the "money grows on trees" pun at the maple syrup tree
Thank you sir!!! We left there about 2 hours ago. We visited both stores today. Both have roughly the same amount of goods, however the original is more preferred with my two kiddos. Of you're ever in Western KY swing by Owebsoro and sat hello. We have the International BBQ festival. Stay safe and keep the videos coming.
My local groceries store is just a mega super mighty wal-mart full of people I never want to see again.
Same, exspeicaly with the viorus going around
If, I knew you were in Eastgate, I would have hung out with you.
I really really enjoyed your video from the other location so I'm glad you were able to check this one out. Very cool!
Bravo! You really are working on your
Diabetes - no soda ! I’m proud of you, CB one!

Awesome place , really enjoyed !!!! 🙃
Neat store, wish we had something like that here in NC!
Josh King we have nothing in NC :(
@@elonisdunbar9310 nothing good at all it's sad!
We have Mast General Store 😂😂😂
@@anniematheson426 in NC where at, thank you
Josh King mountain life for me and my fam...you?
I member that store I'm also from Cincinnati, Ohio My Dad and Mom went they even had an singing lion dressed like Elvis back in then the 80's
This place looks fun!
I never heard of this place until mentioned in another you tube short.
Ur nailin' it Jacob w/the outhouse. Cutsie grocers ...wish we had one. Glad to hear you don't do soda anymore, good for you. My grandson gave it up and junk food and he went from chubby to an ad for the perfect body. All because of change in diet and lifestyle. A live trout is killed while you wait. Not keen on live animals waiting to be your dinner. None the less, you are taking us to interesting places throughout Ohio.
That’s the coolest store. When I heard the intercom come on I just knew it was going to say Mr. Carpetbagger to the front. Lol
This is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time😀😀😀
That looks like a really fun grocery store! XD So need to make it out to Jungle Jim's someday soon! :D
the pigeon coop was supposed to look like the 1950 Brooklyn old Italian delis. They had them on top.
Do people still keep pigeons in NYC? I’ve read it used to be very popular.
@@chuckoneill2023 very few if any at all, but! The pigeons from back then had baby pigeons with the wild ones and every once and a wile you see some pretty white an Brown spotted one's left over from the rooftop breeding days. They are wild now.
i went there when i visited my daughter in cinci love that store
A 360° Turn. Please tell us that you brought some bags of Pistachios?
WOW! So many variations of specialty items. You should visit the WKRP studio LOL.
I didn't know there was one in Cincinnati Ohio! Road Trip!
Love your videos. I cant travel a lot and your videos are a delight! 🤩
Jungle Jim awesome
We need something like that in Tenn. And Mississippi.
Oh cool! I work right down the road from this jungle Jim's! Missed you dang it!
I've been to the one in Fairfield, Ohio and it's the coolest!!
Oh man! This is right by me! I could have gotten a Carpetbagger autograph! :( wahhhh!
Sharon B me too!
Holy shit your in my neck of the woods WTH are you still in Ohio I would love to meet you
Same, wish I had known.
Thanks for showing this. I saw your video for the original location and I went to check it out a couple of months ago. Now I know what their second location looks like.
I hope you picked up some #grippos before you left Cincinnati. The bathrooms were the coolest there. I loved the wine sampling.
Jacob, That is a Playmobil not a Duplo.
The person on top of the Lego sign was actually playmobile
If you come back through Eastern Kentucky hit up the Natural Bridge Skylift and Gift Shop! Its in Slade, Kentucky! Me and my husband would love to meet you. We're big fans!
this store is crazy
:0 oh, they sell Boar's Head brand! Well I guess that makes sense since Publix isn't that far north.
@Zachary Rugar nice! Publix is a nice place to shop ^^
That’s a pretty cool store
Beers and fresh seafood. Exotic meats. My place to go whenever I’m around Cincinnati.
Love your videos, my daughter was like where did you find this guy I dont remember but he finds some weird stuff I like it 😊
The talking wine guy looks like Edgar Allen Poe
Good find
That used to be the big grocery store BIGGS.
If you have not been go North to Dayton and see the National Museum of the Air Force. Very worthwhile and free.
It is only about 40 miles north of you.
That is an outstanding museum. Better than the Smithsonian.
And north of that in Wapakoneta is the Neil Armstrong Museum, full of his space stuff. Wapakoneta was his home town. July 20 this year is the 50th anniversary of the first moon landing. For lunch, skip the fast food and go to Cloud Nine or J Marie's.
How the hell can they monitor the best before dates with so many products?
gissneric I’d hate to be the night stock crew!
I've shopped there for years. I've never had an issue. They move so much merchandise it's unreal.
Having worked in the grocery industry for 30 years, I was thinking the same thing...
It's really an international grocery. They sell foods from around the world and get customers from all backgrounds and ethnicities. Its crazy how busy it gets there. If you can imagine a normal walmart supercenter on a Saturday, its normally twice as busy at that.
Just watched the episode where you were sipping soda, and said "My wife thinks this stuff is going to be the death of me". Great job giving up soda!!! It's no good on a regular basis and obviously really unhealthy. I gave it up years ago and enjoy it maybe twice a year. When I do, it's VERY sweet and just enough to curb the need for soda for a long time.
I soooo want to shop there😄😄😄
1:17 The person on the top of the Lego logo is a Playmobil figure
Playmobil is like lego, but with out the bricks you put together
So... It's not like Lego then.
@@Larry No Larry, not really
Lego was first introduced in Denmark in 1932 by Ole Kirk Christiansen
Playmobil was first introduced in Germany in 1974 by Hans Beck
As you can compare, Lego's functionality system was sticking pieces together with force
Playmobil's system of functioning is connecting pieces together with a snap or a click
the bird cope was to replicate the bird copes in New York since you were in the Big Apple section
These videos are great. I’m planning a trip to Ohio this Summer.
I have only been to this location once shortly after it opened. I think they have added quite a bit more decoration items since I was there. I've been to the original location quite a few times and it's always fun, my favorite thing to get there is the fresh salsa but they always have a lot of other great stuff. This is also one of the few places in Ohio I ever see Cheerwine and Ski sodas.
I bet halloween and Christmas is super fun
That’s 5 minutes from my house. I wish you’d do a meetup!
Danny do you shop there often ? Hows the prices would you say fair, expensive or just right ?
Thanos I go maybe every couple months. I think more expensive than Kroger or Meijer BUT they have stuff you can’t get anywhere else. It’s worth checking it out.
Thanos They have a huge Beer & Wine section. I’m not much of a drinker but I do go occasionally to buy single bottles (biggest selection other than The Party Source) of beer to try.
I also occasionally get some of the specialty pop/soda. The Flying Cauldron pop is a butterscotch pop that’s the exact same as the Butterbeer at the Harry Potter park in Universal Studios Orlando, they make if for them.
They also have a huge selection of flavored syrups for coffee. Pumpkin Spice, etc.
And then of course they have a section for just about every ethnic group you could think of. I’ve been wanting to maybe once a month have a dinner from a different group (Japanese, Mexican, British, Ethiopian, etc).
Make sure to hit the Sign museum while you're here! And you have to eat some goetta! :)
And the sign museum video played right after this one... Lol.... I'm a moron. Great videos as usual!!! 😁
He uploaded a video yesterday of the sign museum
If you got the time and gas for it, you ought to head to eastern Ohio and visit the town where they filmed Children of the Corn. Can't remember the name of it, but it's easy to find out.
I went to jungle Jim’s their yesterday
Wow what an amazing grocery shop! I would defently make it my main grocery store if I had one in my area!
You probably wouldn't. It's too expensive to do weekly grocery shopping at. It's the kind of place you go to when you look for a special item. Then on the way home you hit up Kroger for most of your groceries.
Super store
You're right down the street from my brothers old house 😊 I'm glad you featured this store. It's so fun!!
This place is so cool! I love when people take something that's usually boring and turn it into something exciting. I wonder if Jungle Jim is a real person?
Wow sugar cane u can chew that stuff for hours!
Nice.
