Harris Teeter

Unfortunately, this location is no more… but it was good while it lasted. The aisles were wide. The products were good. The produce was fresh and the employees were kind. The location was decidedly Belle Meade but it never once felt stuffy or awkward. Add plenty of parking and an intuitive layout and you have for one choice grocery store. The only real drawback was the expense. But, I suppose with a name like Harris Teeter, a little expense is to be expected. Rest well, HT!

Thanks to the awesome managers that let us sit in the parking lot while they sat there smoking and did not tell us they changed the hours!!! Also great job on changing the signs on the building to reflect that and the website! Way to do business!!! Be sure not to ask these guys for anything!!!

A good, big, basic grocery store with everything you need, and a big parking lot. If you are a breeder, you’ll appreciate the reserved spots for people with children. Clean store, fresh food, brisk cashiers.

For just decent sushi, I waited 15 minutes as they prepared it behind the counter. No one ever asked if I needed help nor which roll I wanted, they just kept making the sushi. What a waste of time. I’ll try Kroger next time to feed my sushi cravings.

This Harris Teeter isn’t perfect but it definitely is convenient. My main complaint is that the produce section is underwhelming and often times picked over. Same goes with the cheese. That being said, the store is clean and whenever I’ve been in there the staff has been ready to help with anything I need. Good range of beer and I appreciate the pharmacy/​home goods section upstairs.

A great grocery store for the folks living in the west end/​Hillsboro village area. However, the reason I am giving this a three star because this isn’t the best grocery store for price or good produce. I go to Harris Teeter strictly for confidence to my apartment. If I am going on a bigger shopping trip I go down to Kroger in Green Hills. The problem with this Harris Teeter is it tends to be more expensive than most stores in the area. In my opinion their produce isn’t as good as Kroger’s even though they wee bough out by them recently. This particular store has two levels with your grocery items being on the bottom level with first aid and toiletries on the upper level. Harris Teeter, like Kroger with their plus card, have a VIC card that residents can sign up for. If you recently moved to the area and believe you will shop at a Harris Teeter I would advise signing up for the card. Lastly, they have a a bakery and meat department. The bakery offers savory treats made in house fresh. The meat department is smaller than normals grocery stores. However, the quality is above average.

Pretty decent Harris Teeter for the area. I feel like I come here and they have some pretty great deals, then I come back and things seemed overpriced. But it probably just depends on what specials they are running for the week. Overall produce is pretty good and I’ve gotten some deli items that are tasty as well. It’s rather annoying to have to ride up and down a semi-​rickety elevator to get up to the personal grooming products and such, but at least they are utilizing the space! I do also like that the Redbox inside as well. Not bad at all!

Although normally pricey, nothing beats the double, triple coupon days! Whereas the staff are friendly and the items are stocked well the parking lot is often a nightmare.

Forgot my VIC card yesterday and the cashman fella rang for a gal to help. They punched in a number and Ta DA $ 7 saved. We only had a few items, Agave was 3.99 — the best deal in town and the two for one Teeter Arrabiata Pasta Sauce $ 5.
On the whole it feels a bit pricey but we could not be bothered with the pilgrimage to Trader Joes at noontime.

As others have pointed out, Harris Teeter’s prices are on the high end. I usually only shop here for last minute needs since I do my weekly shopping at Kroger and bulk purchases at Costco. I also had the same reaction to the second floor shopping area which apparently is a «feature» of HT stores in this area.
The staff are friendly enough although some give you that «deer in the headlights» look that seems to be all too common in Nashville retail establishments.
They finally fixed the lumpy parking spaces facing Blair Blvd. Yeah.

I’ve never seen Harris Teeter before until coming to Vandy, so I’m not sure if it’s a southern thing or what… but I like it. It’s very clean and organized, but it is a little more pricey than Kroger. HOWEVER, having a VIC card really helps and if you come where there is a special, it can save a lot.
Sometimes they have specials for prime rib or other good cuts of steak for 6.99/lb, or steak for buy one get one free, and they have pretty fresh seafood (as fresh as can be for a landlocked state like TN…), so when there’s a sale, the meats and seafood can end up being cheaper than Kroger, but usually produce and other goods are a little more expensive.

After I moved from the Viridian, I realized how spoiled I was to have an HG Hill in the first floor of my building. Now living on music row, my «local» grocery store options are limited, with a Kroger a few miles away on Franklin Pike, and then Harris Teeter on 21^st Avenue.
I am a bit of a grocery store snob. While Harris Teeter definitely fits the bill as a «classy,» clean and friendly grocery store, their prices for some of their dry goods are a bit obscene. I can usually find a decent deal on produce, dairy or meat, but I am sure to steer clear of the cereal, baking products, crackers, etc.
Things I like about this Harris Teeter:
–They have a Red Box! There aren’t many in the area, so thats a major plus.
–Very clean, welcoming environment
–Their rotisserie chickens are great for last-​minute meals
Things I don’t like about this Harris Teeter:
–As mentioned before… some of their prices are kind-​of high
–Their checkout system is pretty weird… it’s hard to explain, it’s not like a traditional check-​out lane, it’s a little confusing at first

Ahhh okay… how to review this place…
hmmm…
Well I went here my second day in Nashville, earlier this summer. The place is clean, fresh, and beautiful. The staff is all very friendly and nice. And the shoppers here are super attractive! I mean. If I would have known that we were all going to do a workout photoshoot at this place I would have worn less: P
Anyways, this place is pretty expensive and the savings don’t lower the price as much as you’d like. but its quality not quantity.

Yes it’s expensive, but if you take advantage of their coupon deals it’s a pretty good place to shop.
As a guy, I was a little weary of couponing to begin with because I only imagined old housewives who have a lot of time on their hands couponing. But due to the recent economy and craze with couponing and the fact I’m still a struggling graduate student, I’d give it a try.
I’ve saved between 40% to 60% on grocery visits every time they have their coupon promotions and have never looked back. Yes, Kroger, Walmart, Target, Aldi, etc. are cheaper at face value but if you take advantage of their couponing promotions at Harris Teeter it’s definitely worth the time and effort to coupon and shop here.

I didn’t even know Harris Teeter existed until I moved here. We have places like Pavilions, Safeway, Ralphs, Fresh & Easy and Bristol Farms in CA, but no Harris Teeter. When I first walked in here after only having grocery shopped at the scary Kroger locations along Gallatin in East Nashville I was quite pleased! BUT yes upon closer inspection their prices are quite high. I do make the occasional stop here since it’s close to my work, bank and chiropractor. But I’ll keep my major grocery shopping stops for Trader Joe’s, Turnip Truck, Whole Foods and the Farmers Market.
This is slightly embarrassing but I didn’t realize there was a second level to this place until about 6 months after first stopping in. I thought «what the F – K? They don’t sell toilet paper here?!» …it’s upstairs doofus.

Let’s start with the fact that there’s something kind of creepy about the layout and end with the prices for what I was looking for were absurd.
I’m not sure why the place was creepy, but it seemed haunted by the ghost of Compton’s Food Town, which burned to the ground right next to a fire station. I just got a vague feeling of old failed grocery store that put on mascara and went bar hopping.
The prices seemed to be on average about a buck higher on everything i looked at. «Wait,» you might say,“for convenience, paying a buck extra is no big thing.” wrong. a buck extra per item is $ 40 extra per average load.
They had 4 AAA batteries for nearly $ 5 there. I picked up a pack of 20 later for $ 9 at the co of cost.
Didn’t have the harry teet card, didn’t have time to grab a new one, and they didn’t do what other places do and do a courtesy swipe of the random card that’s laying around. Yeah, not so thrilled.

My husband comes here more than I do, since he’s always on the hunt for his fat-​free everything. Plus, he’s the Vandy student.
I thought it was okay. Cleaner than where I normally go, but the selections and prices aren’t worth my 20 minutes of getting here by walking. And when I go grocery shopping, I have to consider the weight I’m putting in my backpack, plus the walk time home. If we move to this area, I would be here more often. But as of now, if I’m in the area, I don’t have the urge to stop in, not even for something quick.
They do have a great customer service center.

The selections are pretty small and the prices are pretty steep. Really ordinary things that Kroger carries are at least 20% more expensive at Harris Teeter, and there are less brands to compare against each other.
I was looking for some cheese this morning, and as I was reaching for a block of extra sharp cheddar, I noticed the base of the dairy rack is filled with dead flies. I don’t know about you, but a trough of dead flies doesn’t make me hungry. Clean that shit. Damn.

Prices are higher than Wally World, higher than Kroger, and as high as Publix yet you are barely as nice as Wally World. Fail.
Your product selection is a further fail. It was small, few facings, and a limited number of SKUs. Eek!
Your parking situation is miserable. You’re a grocery store, you cannot have miserable parking. That is generally the one stressful moment in shopping for groceries and you made it worse. Congratulations?

Before there was the Teeter there was the Kroger, and the Kroger was old and decrepit. Then the Teeter came along, and though the prices were much higher, it was good… or at least better.
But then the Kroger received needed upgrades and the Higher prices of the Teeter were no longer tenable, and this one returned to his Kroger ways.
