Kroger

Worst Kroger out there!

Low Budget!
It is truly Ghetto and trashy!
The fruit selcetion that I have ever seen!
The customer service is terrible.
The aisles are way too narrow.
This store is just awful!

I’m really not a fan of Kroger’s. I only go there because of lack of a more convenient alternative and I don’t have time to drive somewhere farther away that I actually enjoy patronizing.
Kroger’s doesn’t know the meaning of customer service. Not even close.
I love the way the checkout clerks bounce my produce around, too, after I have painstakingly selected it to make sure it wasn’t all beat up, and the produce isn’t that good there to begin with adding insult to injury.
It’s hard to find any variety of name brands there. Everything is some variation of one of their house brands. You might find one regular Kroger brand and one «select» (whatever that means), but they are still both Kroger’s, and they are all higher priced compared to other stores.
It’s a big corporate operation that gives you a big corporate experience. If you like that kind of thing, by all means go there. If you’re like me and don’t, go elsewhere.

As the last reviewer pointed out this is indeed refrerred to as «Ghetto Kroger», but I prefer Kroghetto myself. Anyways, this store is small and old. You won’t find anything expired or nasty, but you also won’t find the variety you might find at a bigger store in the suburbs. As someone who lives in the city I shop here occasionally when I need something quick. A few things to consider about this store is that there are always lines LONG lines that take forever to get through b/​c there one register open and the person checking out doesn’t know how to use their food vouchers. This happens nearly everytime I’m in this store and usually results in people walking out. It is a good place to people watch though, and the clerks are friendsly and a little stressed as their usually fieldiing long lines full of people that are irritated b/​c they were made to wait.
That’s about it! Go there if you need something (like coffee maybe, but not shitake mushrooms!)

Called «Ghetto Kroger» by the students at the University of Dayton this particular location is certainly a bit interesting to say the least. Tucked in to the middle of a residential neighborhood this might be the smallest chain location that I have ever seen.
Its open till midnight which is nice, but that might be were the good aspects depart. The food selection is mediocre at best but will do if all you need is to run quickly to get something you forgot for dinner. Expect to have fight for parking as this location seems to always be packed, and the interior is messy, and confusing.
That being said I have seen improvements in the past, but recently prices have started to go up as they have every where and I will take my money to a place that I can do all my shopping at. A sign on the door says renovations in progress so this is perhaps a good thing.
