Harris Teeter

always a great experience here. My family uses the home shopping at harris teeter and my orders are always filled on time and properly. thank you brittany and the rest of the home shop staff!

Free Samples! They are also open ²⁴⁄₇. If you have a VIC Card, then this place is the best place to go! The prices are good (with the VIC card) and they have a large variety of produce. The customer service is usually good, but since I frequent here often, I don’t really need help at this store. I can just go in, grab what I want, and then go through self-​check out. Everything is clean, neat and organized and the pharmacy is conveniently located as well.

This Harris Teeter is about 15 – 20 minutes from my house and I pass probably 10 grocery stores on the way to it, but there are several reasons why I make the trip here. You can order your groceries online and pull up to the door and they bring everything right out and you don’t have to even get out of your car. There is a $ 5 fee, but I save more than that by not browsing the aisles and picking up items I don’t need. They have really good sales… like buy 2 get 3 free kind of sales. Whenever they have this sale on their coffee I make a special trip here. That’s such a great deal and their coffee is really good. One time I came and got 5 of a medium blend. I really wanted a darker roast but they didn’t have it. I came back a week later to see if I could exchange it and they absolutely let me exchange it and were so nice about it. After I exchanged my coffee I came back in and grabbed a loaf of bread and did the self-​checkout. As I was walking out, the guy working that area said, «Have a great day Ms. Bell». At first I wondered how he knew my name, but then I assumed it’s from my loyalty card and I smiled and thanked him and wished him the same. They really know how to do customer service and make you want to continue to come back.

This review is for the Bakery department, specifically Maria Victoria who works there. My mom and I were looking for a baby shower cake but Teeter had no options available in their official bakery book. Thank goodness for Maria Victoria! She was super sweet and told us as long as I could provide a picture with a rough idea of what I wanted, she could make it work. I texted her a picture of a baby shower cake I found online and asked her to make it gender-​neutral. I think the finished product turned out better than the original picture! She even took the time to sculpt out a baby to include on the cake — which is truly a work of art. We will be going back to her for our next big event for sure.

Most careless cashiers and unapologetic manager I’ve ever encountered. One piece of advice to the cashiers and management: If you make a mistake that causes the customer to pay 5x what she meant to pay, DO NOT BLAME IT ON THE CUSTOMER. Just apologize to the customer. Is that so hard? I will never come back to this location.

If it’s on sale, they don’t have it. There are also a handful of rude cashiers. The Manager, Brandon, doesn’t care about either of these issues.

The woman who works at the bakery counter where they have the free samples is very rude. I have seen her slam down items on the counter near customers and make rude comments. I dont buy fresh bread there anymore because she will give you the stink eye.
The sub shop can be ok… but it depends who makes it because there is no consitant product and a couple of times no one has helped me fast or the sub has been really bad.
The salad bar is ok but the lettuce is very wilted.
I hate the way the check out lines are turning— it doesnt help the carts, it is confusing to customers and causes people to sometimes «skip» ahead in the line cause they «didnt know where to go»

This is a the way a grocery store should be, in our opinion.
They have a wide selection of brands, from high-​end to budget store brands. We even picked up quite a few items that we normally get at Whole Foods and saved quite a bit by doing so.
The frozen food section is «off the chain»! They have it all!!! We bought 2 Gino’s East pizzas and some Skyline chili, neither of which have we seen at another store. Excited!
The only complaint would be that there wasn’t enough produce and it looked a bit picked over. We did go on a Sunday afternoon, however, and it could be that they were running low by that time. (?)
Also, we live in West Springfield, so this is a bit of a haul, but all in all, worth the trip!

I was at this location yesterday, I did spend $ 40 in grocery .I got their brand pasta, today my wife called me and said she found a lot bugs inside .She called to tell me the issue and how she is scared the bugs would spread all around our place. So I got home as soon as I can, and I return the pasta the «buggy «pasta .Guess what!! they didn’t even apologize .They offer me the $ 2 refund plus double merchandise of their competitors .The started put away their brand, which they saw is full with bugs. I still can’t believe what happen to me their. If you wanna shop their, don’t get their brand.

Great that’s is 24 Hours! Store is always clean and organized. Employees are always polite and helpful. Store is not overly crowded with long lines.

I love this place.
First of all, this place opens 24hours a day. At night time, it’s like zombie town but some of us prefer it that way. I like it when it’s empty and no waiting line. however their deli/​meat section is closed after 10.
Second. is that they have veteran parking spot. seriously respect! and thank you for taking care of us. Although it’s just a parking lot, it really means a lot to veterans.
Third. they have good selections. all harris teeter you go in different locations, they all look the same so I don’t go look around to find certain food items.

Haven’t had a negative experience here ever. Do enjoy that its open 24 hours. This is my after hours go to place for grocery shopping. Rarely ever crowded during the late night hours. Always get awesome customer service. Never tried the food pickup service.

In general, I love Harris Teeter, I just find this location to be mediocre and lackluster. The one that used to be located in Fairfax City was wonderful and an amazing store. When it moved, I thought I had lost my best friend. I made the trip to the one on Columbia Pike and Pentagon City until this location opened. I was thrilled when this location opened, but initially found higher prices and lackluster service among employees. I stopped going and started visiting other area stores. I haven’t gone back, but may give it another try before completely giving up on this location.
Best part of this store is the layout, which is much better than the old Fairfax City location. Selection of items, about the same. I’ll give it another try and update this review.

Love Harris Teeter.
–Food quality is much better than the nearby Giant and Safeway
–The deli food is much better than the other local grocery stores
–Customer Service — everyone here is extremely polite and professional. The personal shoppers are GREAT if you use the food pickup service. I’ve even offered to tip them several times but they’ve refused.
–Grocery pickup — this service is totally worth it. It’s I think around 9 bucks for them to do all the grocery shopping for you, you shop online (much easier to find sale items), pick a time window to pick up it, and you don’t even have to get out of the car. They do a great job at picking out the right things, and swapping it for something very similar if they are out of something.
It’s could be the best grocery experience in Fairfax. Wegmans and Whole Foods compete, but parking sucks at both of them.

Worst Customer Service experience ever!!! The lady who works at the return service just couldn’t be more rude to my mom!!! My mom tried to return a $ 3 item by herself during the day (she doesn’t speak English very well) and was asked to show her driver’s license. She doesn’t have one since she’s here just to visit me, so she called me and wanted me to explain to that lady, see if she can just show them her green card. Then that lady just refused to talk to me on the phone!!! Then she told mom, «No no no, you can’t return it!» I mean who does that? Do you have mom? Do you treat her the same way??? I think she should get fired for her attitude! Learn the lesson of how to respect people!!!

Harris Teeter is like an upscale Giant — cleaner, brighter and more selection, but definitely not a top-​level store like Wegmans. The Fairfax store is in a strip shopping center with just a handful of other stores, so there’s always plenty of parking.
* Produce — mostly okay, although it could be fresher. Some limited options, like no single lemons (bags of multiple ones only) and a smaller organics section.
* Prepared foods — sushi is fresh and okay; salad bar is average.
* Meats — good prices if you can catch a sale. Extra discounts sometimes on family-​size (large) packages.
Get a free VIC card to maximize your savings, especially if you aren’t brand loyal and are willing to buy whichever brand is on sale.

I’m a big fan of this Harris Teeter for two reasons: the staff and the samples.
The staff is always helpful and friendly here. On some occasions they have gone above and beyond to make my shopping experience worth while. The folks that make the subs, especially Dreama G, are awesome.
The other thing I love about this Harris Teeter is that they apart always have samples. And the what I really like is that they have plenty of them. This tactic has motivated me to buy several items that I would not normally get.
The store is normally very clean and well stocked. I’ve never had an issue in these areas. I don’t do my normal grocery shopping here, but when I do need something I find what I need with ease.
Harris Teeter does great with coupons and other specials, so keep your eyes out for good deals and coupon double days.
As you probably figured out, I’ll be at a regular at this location.
*This business is gun carry friendly.

I’m with Brandi K. This HT is fabulous! I’ve now decided that I will always do my grocery shopping at 7:30 in the morning. Why? Because for just $ 2.49 you can get a made to order egg, cheese, (and meat) sandwich on a bagel, biscuit, roll, or croissant. You can also add a HT orange juice for just $ 0.50 more! (Must use your VIC card for the orange juice deal).
They have six round tables nearby in the front of the store so you can eat in or take out. And… at 7:30 in the morning you have the whole store practically to yourself! Now, as much as I love this location, I probably wont be back because I’m a Marylander, and I so rarely cross The River. I had a conference at the Hilton Garden Inn across the street, and I purposely arrived early to get my breakfast here.
Again, as Brandi stated, this store is clean and organized. It’s bright and cheery too. As you enter, the first thing you see is the produce. Everything is fresh, and I love that I was able to purchase ripe avocados. I hate having to wait for them to ripen.
If I lived in Fair Oaks, this would be my go to grocer.

Oh, how I love thee, Harris Teeter, let me count the ways…
1. Great location for me. In this, I think location is a hidden gem. It’s never crowded & I’ve never had to wait in line. Most visits I’m in & out within 5−10min, but I know what I’m looking for. Easy Peasy.
2. Clean, organized, always stocked & well lit.
3. Competitive prices! MOST items that I buy regularly are cheaper here. Especially booze… Don’t judge me!!! However, meats & dog food seem to be exceptionally overpriced. Go figure.
4. SUB SHOP!!! My most favorite part. Until I can post a pic of the signage, just google «Harris teeter sub shop» and check out all the goodies they can quickly whip up for you. Subway, Wegmans samwhich shop, Quiznos (& ect) be damned! This shop gives you better bread, meats, cheeses, toppings & they don’t hold back. Also the prices are incomparable. Especially on deal days! On Tuesdays all ½ subs are $ 3.49 & on Fridays all whole subs are $ 4.99!!! Half is enough to fill you up; a whole will make you sinfully happy. Don’t forget your VIC card either… You rack up points for buying subs. 15 points = 1 FREE!
Unfortunately, I do have ONE gripe… I have a somewhat crazy schedule which brought me to HT super early one morning (530am). I was working a 12hr shift & hoping to grab breakfast & lunch for the day. By 540am, I was at the register all ready to check-​out with my items. Well… There was no salesperson to get me rung up & out the door. So I waited patiently. And then not-​so patiently. 10 mins later, after calling out to anyone who might hear & waiving my arms around for someone possibly looking at cameras… I left my items at the register & left. Without food for the day & no time left to stop anywhere else. C’mon, HT!!! You’re 24hrs, so serve your customers for all 24 of those hours!

Very convientent location right off route 50 towards Chantilly. Its usually empty inside the store and empty outside in the parking lot. Great prices especially with the VIC card, you get emails about deals for the week and coupons come in the meal! There are also many days where they offer to double your coupons which saves you alot of money! The best thing here are the subs. You can rack up sub points and get a free sub, I think if you get over 15 points. The sub at this location is always on point and the ladies who make them hook it up with meat and toppings! Really amazing customer service here, employees are always helpful and don’t just tell you which isle to go to, they walk you there.
Harris Teeter is an upscale Giant with a great wine and beer selection but definitely not as pricey as Wegmens. The best thing is this location is 24 hours! So anything you need anytime off the day this place is open! I only wish the sub place was open 24 hours also because my ass would be in here at 2 am asking for a steak and cheese please!
