Kroger

I love shopping at this Kroger. Not only is it close to the house, everyone there is so nice. I like how they will ask if you need help to the car with your groceries.

This place is going downhill fast. The lanes are always busy and the staff is moderately paced. Beware to lock your doors and put away items as the local brain-​surgeons that frequent the place have stolen items from the bed of my truck in broad daylight…

This review is for the pharmacy only. The remarks about the parking were not included in the rating.
My wife had ordered a prescription from our regular Kroger in Acworth. When they realized they were out of stock, they called this Kroger to fill it for her.
By the time we drove here, the prescription was ready for pickup — EXCELLENT service, accompanied by a friendly staff.
The only drawback to this location is the parking. Entrance from Cherokee Street is an adventure — down a steep hill into a blind left turn, then across the entire lot, past the very busy gas station. Exit in that direction is nigh unto impossible, as it empties out into the turn lane for Jiles Road. Exit at Jiles Road limits you to a right turn which then requires a U-​turn to get back to Cherokee Street. Very inconvenient.

This is where I do my main grocery shopping since it is close to my house. Just recently, they re-​arranged and updated the store to make it look more high end. I am really happy that the natural foods dept expanded. The produce dept looks better but still not a lot of selection for types of veggies. Will still have to go to Publix for some less mainstream fruits and veggies.
I love their sale prices and register coupons as well as the ones I load online.

This Kroger gets two stars only by comparison– it is, at the very least, not the sketchiest grocery store I have ever been to, having lived in various ghettos and whatnot.
Anyway, it’s getting late so I’ll just get right to it. First off, the produce. There were about two bags of iceberg lettuce and one pre-​made kale salad mix– no spinach, no spring mix, no selection whatsoever. So much for your New Years resolutions, ladies and gentlemen. 2015 is looking as unhealthy as its predecessor. There was ONE zucchini, and it was already past its prime. The pomegranates were turning deep, ugly, battered-​woman shades of purple, and almost all of the bell peppers were soft.
No line at the seafood counter, but a 6 – 7 minute wait for someone to show up, regardless. They don’t even give you a bell to ring. They’re practically begging you to take out your frustration in a Unilocal review.
Half of the boxes of gluten-​free pasta were crushed, which is disheartening when there are only about 4 boxes available to begin with.
And, the coup de grace, at the checkout, there are no lines, but this could be because of the two employees with buggies full of homeless merchandise parked directly in front of the only two open lanes stuck in lengthy discussion over where to put things so that they can best sell. Here’s a tip: wherever you decide, Kroger, the best place is likely somewhere other than right between my purse and your register.

This particular kroger NEVER looks very clean and they have possibly the worst deli of any kroger ive ever seen… they even had water leaks in there ceiling that i know they just «let go» for at least a month… i would think that and the overall UNcleanliness of the store is due to VERY POOR management!!! Only reason i bother to come here is convenience and my bank is inside… 1 more thing, alot of times, there fruit section is just plain sad to look at… shame on u kroger, i expect better…

I have been coming to this Kroger since 2008 when i purchased my house around the corner and i just wanted to take the time and let you know about Mickey in the meat department. He is a really nice guy tries to get to know your name and is always willing to stop what he is doing to be of assistance. Im the type of person that gets off late and usually running in the store around the time the meat department is packing up and he has always been more that happy to help me. The store is always nice and clean and always has what i am looking for. Thanks alot guys. Keep it up!

Kroger is okay, but I don’t like THIS particular location. It has NOTHING. Well. Nothing I want, anyway. Plus, the layout of the store is weird, and no one working there seems happy that you’re shopping there. I MUCH prefer Publix. Alas, I digress.
This store doesn’t have: Blue Bell Ice Cream in the pint size (wth?!); Pepperidge Farm Poppyseed Onion Sandwich Buns; Keebler Snack Crackers (no, Lance aren’t the same); or turkey ham; AND the Silk Soy Milk isn’t with the milk and other soy milk in the milk section, it’s up in the front, in the «natural foods» section. Why have some soy milk in one section of the store, and other soy milk in another section? That’s just dumb to me.
Again, skip this store, keep driving to Publix.

What can you say about Kroger other than discussing a certain location? They sell groceries, have a small organic section and they sell sushi which freaks me out. I do miss the days where grocery stores helped you load groceries in your car. I go shopping 2 – 3 times a month and I’d be happy to tip if someone helped get my heavy stuff in to the trunk but no one offers anymore. Am I showing my age?!
I like that this location sells gas. I put over 25k miles on my car the first year I had it so gasoline is important in my motoring. I also appreciate the marketing ploy Kroger has with earning «points» to get money off a gallon of gas. I tend to do a touch down dance when I score 10 cents off. Of course everyone is staring but it is my own version of the lottery without the guilt.
