Winn-Dixie

Apple pay does not work and their chip reader is finicky. Be careful of getting your card skimmed here.

Very close to our home. Clean and organized. Deli was very helpful. This is definetily our Orlando grocery store.

Please beware of this company. Won «diapers for a year» last July. Area Manager Richard today at store #2215 today accused me of passing fake coupons and lying about winning. Said he recognized me «from the videos». Then he gave me the wrong number for customer service, and they ended up connecting me to yet another wrong number. Lies, accusations, and plain being given the run around. That’s what «winning» a contest got me. Done with this company and this store.

I was initially going to give this particular Winn Dixie 3 stars, but due to its convenience for tourists, I went ahead and gave it 4 stars.
We come down to Disney at least once a month (usually more) and when we do, we always bring our snack items, canned drinks, etc. with us from Jacksonville, but when we need cold items that need to be placed in the fridge, we always make a pit stop here before heading to our resort.
As is typical with stores in O-​Town located close to Disney, you’re smacked with a huge touristy section right when you walk in the store. So many Disney items from plushes to beach towels, toys, t-​shirts, and even pajamas. There’s also other items you may need such as sunscreen, sun glasses, swim suits (yes, you read correctly, swim suits in a grocery store), pool items like goggles and toys, etc. This area actually takes up a pretty good section at the front of the store.
On our last visit here, I needed lettuce b/​c I’ve been on a bit of a salad kick lately. I even packed a bowl, fork, knife, etc. The bags of Dole lettuce were worse than pathetic. The expiration was for the next day and they were all brown and wilted. I ended up having to get a head of lettuce which was just a pain and not nearly as convenient.
They do have a pretty good (and large) beer and wine selection. They even have a «Create your own 6 pack» beer sample of craft beers. If you’re looking for hard liquor or a better wine selection, there’s an ABC Liquor store directly in front of this store in the same parking lot.
The store is clean, organized, and well-​lit. You’ll find pretty much any grocery product you’re looking for here at normal Winn Dixie prices. The prices are right on the mark with what we pay at any Winn Dixie in jacksonville or other areas of O-​Town which aren’t as touristy.
It is hard to find help in here if you’re trying to find something and can’t. Even when the store is completely dead, finding an employee can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Last visit, we actually had to go to customer service to track someone down help us locate an item. Granted, once you find an employee, they are all very friendly and all smiles, but good luck with finding one.
So, the ruined lettuce and the difficulty in finding employees would normally have knocked this down to a 3 star rating for me. But, as I mentioned, the convenience to Disney, the cleanliness, and the good prices made me feel ok with giving it 4 stars.
TIP: If you want to do some movie watching, there is a Redbox located just inside the entrance to the store.

The top Winn Dixie I have ever walked into… Clean, low prices and many convenient’s… …Do try the deli; and do not pass up the weigh it yourself, pack and auto pay aisle. I work in the area, and tell all my guests to go here!

I only recently moved to Orlando and I looked around for a Winn-​Dixie because I remember them from visiting in other southern states. The prices are better than in other grocery stores in Dr Phillips and this store is clean and well stocked. I especially like the «BOGO» deals.

I was in Orlando one night needing some booze and other essentials. We came here to get what we came for. Plus we got some sweet Florida branded coozies. It was just fine, but I knocked off two stars because I didn’t see any mischievous dogs. Isn’t there a dog movie about Winn-​Dixie?

If you are staying in Disneyworld, this is a good grocery store to go to. The prices are reasonable.
We ordered the Winn-​Dixie loyalty card before we went to Disneyworld. For 1 adult and 2 tweens staying at Disney’s Pop Century, we made two trips to the grocery store in a week, spending about $ 80 total. We saved over $ 30 with the loyalty card.
It has a chicken wing steam table with at least 6 different flavors of wings. It was $ 5.99/lb. This was lunch for us twice. The wings were good hot or cold. 2-​lbs of wings and some salad were enough for three of us for each meal.
We put together a number of meals of sandwiches and salad and ate them in our hotel room. We also bought juice boxes, other drinks, breakfast foods, bread, treats, and tons of fresh FRUIT. We bought five ½ gallons of milk here, too. But you can buy milk for the same price at the Disney hotels’ food courts or sundry store.
It wasn’t in our budget to have too many sit done meals and we get tired of quick service meals fast. We ate a few quick service meals but saved most of our food budget for a few nicer sit down meals during the week.

This location is very close to downtown Disney and I always seem to find my way here to stock up on everything. In fact, I’m enjoying a nice beer that I just purchased here while enjoying some free hotel wifi. I should be resting up for the big Magic kingdom day tomorrow… yes it is open from 7am to 3am… are you kidding me?
There was a creepy old guy in the parking lot dressed in all black. I parked two rows away when I saw him and then he started walking to my car. I didn’t want to deal with it so I backed my car out of the spot And he started chasing me. Really? I just pretended I didn’t see him and parked 7 rows on the other side. While I was walking in he actually got some cash from another poor shopper and he walked in with me and went right for the beer. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. They should have a little better security out here with all of the families around. The 16 year old cart kid seemed a little afraid of him too.
This place also has a giant sand castle in the store. I think Corona is the sponsor because bottles of corona surround it. I call that Marketing! They also have an aisle of Disney souvenirs which are cheaper then the park. 7 bucks for a little Minnie doll or 14 for the medium Minnie. They even have umbrella strollers here… very smart Mr Dixie or can I call Winn?
I was able to get our breakfast, lunch and dinner for tomorrow and future snacks for only 24 bucks not including the beer the beer will not see midnight tonight. All of those meals at Disney would cost us around a 100 bucks but we are going to get ice cream and popcorn for the parade… it’s turning into a tradition.
Yes stock up on snacks here and drinks. Most hotels have a microwave, coffee pot and a mini fridge. If they would give me a Forman Grill I would be really cooking in here.

Woohoo! I’m going to Disney World!
While in Orlando on my little Disney getaway, I figured it would be nice to have a few basic provisions for the hotel room. A quick search showed this Winn-​Dixie as 1 of the closest grocery stores to Disney World. So, after my exploration of Downtown Disney, it was off to the Winn-​Dixie.
This Winn-​Dixie is a fairly typical supermarket. It’s pretty large & has a wide selection of groceries, household goods & pharmacy items. It’s also clean & brightly lit. I did notice 2 deviations from the generic supermarket model, however:
1 of my sought provisions was liquor. This store does carry wine & beer, but does not carry hard liquor. I would have to say customer service was good because when I asked an employee about the liquor, he did point out a liquor store across the parking lot that did have what I was looking for. I decided beer was acceptable after all, so I just got that.
Another slight variation from most supermarkets was a good amount of Disney items & other items an out-​of-​towner might need in sunny, hot Orlando. Somehow, I hadn’t pack any swim trunks, but wanted to go swimming. This Winn-​Dixie came through in a pinch with a decent collection of swim trunks.
Winn-​Dixie is a fine example of a typical supermarket with a couple twists. Though they didn’t have the booze I wanted, they do have beer & wine & they did surprisingly have the swim trunks that I was expecting to have look elsewhere for. Winn-​Dixie is a good 1 shop stop for the far flung tourist visiting Disney World.

This is just like Safeway… even down to their plastic bags.
I’m not from Florida so I ofcourse didn’t have the store card. The stuff I was buying, a few were on sale. Oh heck, I’ll just pay regular price. Or maybe I’ll sign up for the card.
While waiting in the long line, an employee told us to go over to the self check out aisle. He then started ringing us up and explained to us that it’s very easy to use. Well I know how to use that. I just never do because I wanted some human interaction.
But this guy was fast and he even put in his number so we got the discount. That was VERY nice of him. His name on the receipt is: ACM
