Publix

Worst experience ever. They were so racist!!! I was shopping for my sister who has been very ill for a couple months, and at checkout there was an item that was previously purchased as a food item and I took it to customer service were Joey with a bad temper said its not a food item, I told him my sister usually buys this protein in chocolate as a food item and he was so rude and said there’s nothing I can do been looking at me like I was asking for money. He was rude and ugly. So I went to get the chocolate and showed him it does scan as a food item that’s when the manager Dagney arrived and with no questions said I can’t give it to you, I said well the chocolate scans for a food item why does not the vanilla. She was very unprofessional and did not even ask if I wanted something else or did not provide any kind of solution just pulled all the protein shakes from the shalf and said she did not know what to do. Honestly I felt so humiliated and the racist way I was treated was unacceptable !!! I will never come to this publix again!

Probably one of my favorite Publix locations in the Lawrenceville area for one reason: True lemon! For whatever reason, no other stores sell them and I just have to have lemon flavoring in my tea!
Product placement aside, although it’s a little out of the way for me, i’m always happy to go in when i’m in the area. While Publix doesn’t seem to have the stocking issues like Kroger does, this specific Publix always has items i’m looking for.
Same super customer service, cleanliness and BOGOs that most Publix groceries are known for, although this Publix doesn’t seem to follow the same store set up as other locations i’ve seen, especially over near the pharmacy area, but it only burns an extra minute or two to find what i’m after.
There’s several exits on the Sugarloaf parkway side (but only one red light where you can turn left onto Sugarloaf), and there’s a couple of exits towards Five Forks Trickum, but either way, it’s not very hard to get in and out of this lot.

Personally, this is one of my favourite locations of all the Publix’s that I have visited. This location is huge and the staff here during all my visits have always been pleasant. Granted, Publix is more expensive than most grocery stores, but as a consumer we are paying for the appearance/​staff and total quality of the store. They usually always have BOGO free deals, which is always nice. Publix has a great quality bakery, we just got my oldest son’s birthday cake here. The bread here is excellent here as well, if you like bagels, they make them fresh and you can buy them individually if wanting to do so.
They have a nice selection of organic products here too. I love the Organic Green Wise brand, their oatmeal is something we have been buying for the past 5 years. The produce here is very fresh as well, something that I do not see at all Publix’s or Krogers. The majority of their vegs/​fruits here that are organic are fairly reasonable in price.
This Publix location is twice the size as some of their stores. During my last visit here yesterday, while it was snowing. I asked a gentleman where I could find the German sauerkraut. He asked me if I wanted it refrigerated or non (I wanted it room temp in the glass jar in comes in) and he walked me to it. Now, even though he was busy stocking things, he could have pointed or said the isle number… he didn’t and took me to it. That is good service.
I’d highly recommend this Publix.
[Review #271] (Thirty First Review of 2015)

Publix isn’t better than Walmart (as it claims), it’s worse. I complained about improper handling of products to three meat department workers. I complained to a produce manager about my favorite packaged romaine spoiling in the display. I’ve asked a manager 3x for a product, who promised me it would be stocked.
What do I get? NOTHING.
I complained about these issues on Publix’s FB page.
What do I get? Lip service from corporate and empty promises from the store manager.
I still don’t see my basic product request being fulfilled (I’ve been checking daily for over 2 weeks for the Tombstone Thin Crust Pepperoni Pizza) and the product I complained about (Publix brand frozen chicken tenderloins) is still showing up freezer burnt in your displays. C’mon, Publix! Being a grocery store shouldn’t be THIS DIFFICULT. Moreover, being a customer shouldn’t be THIS HARD.
You people don’t want my money. You people don’t want customers. I think you just want a bad reputation. I live across from this store but I think I’d rather go down the road to your competitor.

I love Publix for the customer service the selection of different foods and products. The prices are comparable with other stores and the staff is extra nice.

I’ve yet to have a bad experience at this local Publix. Everyone is extremely helpful when it comes to finding stuff. I love their green wise meat, although it is a bit more expensive but well worth the peace of mind.
I needed a pair of socks and guess what? They got socks here… among other household items, make up, prescriptions etc…

Ok Publix. Clean and stocked. The deli I have noticed are not as good as the Publix stores inside of 285.

Not sure why this Publix came up as a search result for wine. I am a huge Publix fan when it comes to grocery shopping, especially because of their customer service and I do shop at this one regularly. However, when it comes to wine, they are really, really sub-​par. Their selection is mediocre as they do have some decent labels such as R. Mondavi Napa Valley, Jackson, Charles Krug, and wines from Carneros… also a couple of finer quality champagnes. But thats about it. And forget about their imports… hardly anything of interest in that department. The vast majority of the inventory includes lower quality wines. But the biggest problem is the layout and organization, or lack thereof. As a customer you feel lost as the selections are not at all well marked, especially when compared to other retailers such as Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Fresh Market, where signs of wine regions or grape varietals are large and well positioned. While food selection is decent, not a place I’d go to shop for wine. On the other hand, the location on Peachtree Industrial isn’t bad, they actually have a wine person on staff and selection is much better.

Super Clean. Super Helpful. Overall one of the best Publix I’ve shopped in. Their produce section is great.
Remember to shop when they offer their buy one get one free, you always find good deals and also, go to
for store coupons.

Not my favorite Publix, compared to my two by home (The Peach and Peachtree Battle), but still solid.
Weird layout for a Publix as it’s not like the other ones I’m used to (dairy and wine are on the flip side of what I’m used to for example) so I wandered around a little aimlessly trying to find things for the first few minutes! Produce seemed good and the meat selection might even be more extensive that at my usual stores.
Disappointing selection of local fliers, newspapers, etc, which is one of the reasons I stopped in, to do recon for local businesses who might advertise with us at the LAF down the street. Rental magazine and Over 55 brochures weren’t much help for me! But if you’re looking for an apartment, you’ll find plenty of info in the racks here!

I use to be a walmart person but not any more… Ive recently started going to this publix. This place is always clean, never crowded, and all and i do mean of the employees are very nice. I love shopping here and i am in love with the sushi… mmm mmm good… lol…this is my favorite grocery store

I love my local Publix.
I’ve been having an affair with it since it opened some 7 years ago. You just develop a relationship with your local grocery store that’s hard to replace. My wife and I judge other grocery stores off of this one … down the road on Bethesda Church was «the backwards Publix» (same layout as this one, just reversed), the one up the road on Sugarloaf is «the crowded Publix», etc.
Truth to tell, I’m just glad this place is still open. Part of its appeal to me is that it’s never EVER crowded. It’s bigger than other Publixis … Publixes … Publixi … I’ve been to and the large two story ceilings add to the feeling of space.
It’s always clean — and other than one exception — I’ve always been happy with the service their staff provides.
(that exception happens to be one asshole of a guy who glares at everyone and won’t lift a finger to assist a customer — I’m mollified by the fact that he’s still working at a grocery store seven years after he first offended me)
Damn. I’m gonna go get me a Publix sub tonight.
