Publix Super Markets

When I am out shopping in unfamiliar areas, I usually rely on grocery stores to get a quite bite. I can grab a quick bite and keep it moving. I enter this store and plan on grabbing something to just hold me until I can get something more substantial. While I don’t see anything of interest, (they did not have my favorite sour cream donut and their wings are usually too salty for me), I continue checking out the store. The store is very busy during this time and several people seem to be stopping in to get a sub for lunch.
I stop by the Apron’s Cooking School booth and see that they have samples, but when I look in the little cup I see something pink and white. Ewww! The little lady catches me before I get away and invites me to sample her «sides». She removes the napkin and I am relieved because I actually recognize the colors. There is a kale and mushroom stuffing and a side of glazed squash and apples, both were delicious especially the stuffing. You can actually pick up a recipe card if you like the samples.
This store is a typical Publix, very tightly packed, but clean and organized. It has a nice floral and balloon section which is adjacent to a Hallmark Center. So you can literally get all of your special occasion supplies in one section. Perfect!
It is probably a little larger than other Publix stores which is a bonus! If you like Publix, you will like it here!

I love this particular Publix because they have a bigger selection than the one on 92. The people are helpful, friendly and courteous. Also, their handicap carts are always charged and ready to go. And, of course, the wonderful people who help me out to the car and load the groceries into the trunk are a huge bonus to me.

It is a grocery store. I’m not sure what more I can say about that. It is very clean for a grocery store, particularly when compared to others in the area. And I am grateful that they have not switched to those self-​checkout lanes. I find them demeaning, as if I am beneath the notice to actually deserve a human cashier. They also do have a very wide variety of things, although I wish they had more in the way of non-​GMO foods and organic produce. But my expectations aren’t incredibly high with big chains.

It’s a Publix. It’s everything you might expect from a Publix. Clean. Bright. Very helpful staff, too. The thing I like most about this Publix: they don’t have any self checkout lanes.

Haven’t had any bad experiences here. The store is well stocked as all Publix tend to be. It does have the overhang area to pull into when it’s raining. Parking lot does tend to get very busy. It actually can be hard to find a space some days. They do typically have the bogos on end caps or at the very least have them well marked.

I’ve always had good experience from Publix. The pharmacy is one of the best and always helpful as for the cashiers!
My complaint is the bakery though. I ordered a 1^st Birthday cake for my son while my husband was deployed overseas. For something so special they really did a bad job at fixing it! I went in and ordered the cake and was shown the Elmo toys that would be on the cake. Instead of calling me the manager decided she was going to take it upon herself to know what I wanted since she said they didn’t write which Elmo toys to use. I got some Elmo cake with a tow truck instead of the Airplane cake that was suppose to be sort of Air Force theme.
I didn’t have time to pick up the cake so my parents did on the way up for my sons Birthday party. It wasn’t till we were about to cut the cake did I notice it was the wrong cake! We had to go through with the cake smashing since my husband skyped in at 2am just to watch from Afghanistan! When I brought it to the bakery managers attention later I was unhappy at her excuses as to why she couldn’t pick up the phone to ask me (I had the number & the picture written down just in case)!

This Publix is 81 miles from home.
I have shopped at Publix in FL most of my life.
There is only a Wal-​Mart Stupid Center where I currently live, so my choice is this Publix.
They are always very friendly.
I will be a customer here until Publix moves to North Carolina.

I came here to do grocery shopping. That’s what you do at grocery stores.
I couldn’t find the olive oil. Neither could any of the employees.
They didn’t have any. What planet are we on here?*
I could have handled that… well, barely… until an employee asked me, ‘Well what are you, Martha Stewart or somethin’?’**
No sir, I’m not Martha Stewart. I am one of the millions of people who uses olive oil on a regular basis. In fact, olive oil is pretty much a household staple in most homes. It isn’t a novelty item. (I didn’t actually answer him like that– in fact, I don’t think I did anything other than smile. It was my internal voice that made that comment.)
I would have told him I was a vegetarian too, but I was afraid of what the shock might do. Or maybe he would have pulled out a shotgun and I wouldn’t be here to write this review.

*I forgot… Georgia can qualify as its own planet. It is not America.

Very clean store. Usual publix deals.
