Kroger

I went to this Kroger to get lunch with some friends while we were in town for an event (we were on kind of a tight schedule). One of us ordered a deli sandwich, and the person who made it seemed to be new and was extremely slow (not ideal staffing for a Saturday afternoon). It took 10 or 15 minutes and two more employees to get one sandwich made, then when that one was done the employees scattered and started tending to other customers without asking if we were finished ordering, and they ignored us when we tried to catch their attention and say, «Hey, we were in line first.» We didn’t have time to wait around, so the rest of us ended up getting premade chicken sandwiches from the hot food display, and ALL of us except the one who got the deli sandwich ended up ill within 24 hours, which has never happened to me before at Kroger (and was what made me decide to leave a review). I was really disappointed in my experience at this one.

I love this Kroger! I don’t know why people are hating on it so much in these reviews because it’s the classic Auburn Kroger! Great food, great employees, great experience! I love the employees! Especially the great employee, DeShawn! He bags my groceries every time and he should get a raise for always being so nice, friendly, and great at his job! 5 stars!

I am not picky about grocery stores or anything, but this place is just horrible. Produce is dried up, prices suck and the appearance of the store is just in bad shape.

I have to step in and defend my local Kroger a little bit. I like this store. Maybe just because it is the same chain as King Soopers in Colorado and I get homesick, but I find Kroger to be a comforting place to shop.
On the negative side:
–The aisles ARE tiny and ridiculous and whoever designed the entryway should be shot. I can’t think of a single time I’ve entered this Kroger that I haven’t nearly been run over by someone with a cart (buggy). It’s dangerous.
–Also, the store doesn’t EVER seem to be stocked well. There are constantly shelves that are empty, especially when game weekends are approaching. It’s extremely frustrating.
–Also, decent produce seems to be missing a lot of the time in this store.
–Prices on some things are RIDICULOUSLY high.
However, on the plus side:
–They have a little organic produce section that is decent.
–They also have a Natural Foods aisle which I greatly appreciate. They are the only store in Auburn (that I have found anyway) that sells certain veg-​friendly products that I like to buy. Between Kroger and the very few health-​food stores in Auburn, I can make do. The woman in charge of stocking this section will listen to you when you make suggestions… which is refreshing (or maybe she’s just pretending to listen)
–They also have a new sushi bar which I’m sure is pretty standard grocery-​store-​quality sushi.
–This store has alot of the same products as Bruno’s, but is not nearly as overpriced.
–The dairy section moos. I might be the only one over the age of 5 who enjoys this… but oh well.

This was a shitty grocery store to actually shop at, but I did get one of my most prized possessions at Kroger — my cat Jasmine!
I found her just inside the electric doors, a little kitten, separated from her mother, hungry and skinny as hell. It was love at first sight.
Now of course she’s turned into a bitchy old woman, but I’m sure no matter what, we’ll both always have a special place in our hearts for Kroger!

This is the worst Kroger on earth! The isles are tiny, the shelves are crowded and unorganized, and you can never find anyone who works there to help you find anything. On top of that, when I got to the register with a full buggy of groceries, the check-​out girl first scans all my items, then tells me their credit system has been down all day and they can’t accept a credit or debit card. Seems like they should have told me this when I first walked through the door, or at least made an anouncement over the intercom.
