Harris Teeter

Another solid Harris Teeter store! This location is on Lawndale. Its one of the bigger locations. As usual with most of the Harris Teeters I have visited, it is well stocked and well kept. The layout is a bit different, and the items for sale in each aisle don’t always make sense to me, so it might be difficult to find items if you do not pay attention to the signs. However, I really like the deli here a bit more than others given their selection of items. Still, I highly recommend this location.

Love the Teeter — they have anything you would ever want in a store — most of the time. I love to hit the Starbucks first thing and enjoy the hour of shopping with the family — my girls love to get the free deli cookie for their shopping enjoyment as well.

We moved here from Colorado about a year ago and when I learned that Harris Teeter was owned by Kroger I figured we would have similar experiences to the stores we had back in CO (King Soopers, also owned by Kroger) wow, I have been SO disappointed.
My biggest gripe is the produce department at each of the HT’s I’ve been to. I am appalled at how bad the produce is. I have found moldy produce on the shelves for sale. I have wasted so much money on produce that goes bad so quickly, strawberries and raspberries in particular, I will buy strawberries that look great and within 48 hours they are a moldy mess in the refrigerator. The apples are another frustrating thing, if I want to buy enormous, overgrown, tasteless apples I can buy them singly, if I want small apples I am forced to buy a 5lb bag of apples (and no option for small organic ones) where half of the 5lb bag is bruised from sitting in one place probably for a long period of time.
I am also really displeased with the very few private label organic items. At King Soopers Kroger had a label called «Simple Truth Organic» and so many products with a name brand option had a Simple Truth Organic versions, here there are a few HT Organics options but not nearly as many.
I would usually shop at the Lawndale or North Elm location and I am so tired of wasting money at Harris Teeter and am happy to have finally found Fresh Market.

Some times they will discontinue brands and I still have not seen cherries or turnips in produce lately if ever.
