Publix

Interesting Publix location. There is parking in the garage below and then you take an elevated people mover to the actual top of the building which is where the store is located.
Pricing is noticeably higher (they are close to Bal Harbour Shops) and I found it crowded and the aisles more cramped. But, regardless, this is a great option to pick up groceries, fresh produce, deli meat, etc… especially for the out of towners. Bring your recyclable bags as they are more sturdier than the plastic… especially if you are walking to/​from in that hot Miami heat!

Who would think that publix had great sandwiches well let me tell you try any sub with the multi grain bread at there deli they are big and very tasty and filling way better the subway simply goood!

This publix has a very strange lay out. Down stairs is parking and up stairs is the market. The store is small but the people are friendly and helpful! the parking decks hard to get into with an suv. Over all not a bad stop for the basics.

Great Publix! Surely my favorite location.
This Publix has a great layout: plenty of parking on the first floor and store is on the second floor. You can pick up a shopping cart down below and take it on the special escalator to the store. There’s also a handy elevator.
The store is always clean and the employees here are the nicest! I once dropped my credit card and some cash without noticing and they were quick to chase me out and give it back. I was really pleased.
For someone who hates doing groceries, I actually love coming here.

Parking is a bit challenging, deli is difficult to get anything in, but other departments are excellent. Pharmacy is amazing. I spoke to a male pharmacist his name is Boris he is a doll, gave me a lot of great tips.

Ok, so were in Bal Harbour so everything is a but pricier. However, I just paid $ 3.00 for a single white onion. I’m not complaining I just think it’s definitely a pricier Publix than the rest in Miami. The only thing that really stands out to me is the Meat section always carries a nice Kobe selection for my Kobe Picadillo. Now that I think of it, I don’t know why their premade salads don’t come in all the fancy flavors I’m used to. All I see is gross potato salad, ham salad (bocadito sauce) and some wannabe «Caribbean» one but it’s just not edible (I tried).
Anyways, I will tell you I like that their cosmetics face the cheese and dairy section which keeps the temperature on point. The rest of the layout is a bit questionable.
Do I come here? Yes. Will I change markets? Eh. for the time being I will get my quick supplies from here. It’s important to eat as fresh as you can.
And like we all know…
Publix, where shopping is a pleasure

I haven’t been to a good Publix yet.
The prices are outrageously high.
The service is ALWAYS unfriendly, excruciatingly slow and unhelpful. I’ve never seen any of the workers make an attempt at a smile.
The quality of the produce is hit or miss.
The selection is less than places like Winn-​Dixie, Presidente or others.
My recommendation is to go to the Presidente in North Bay Village or the Winn-​Dixie on 163^rd.

Parking can be tough, and store aisles are narrow. Employees are still helpful and courteous

I think that this Publix is one of the worst I have ever been to. Their inventory is really horrible, I don’t know who is responsible for it but they don’t know what they are doing. If you go their on a weekday at noon don’t even think about trying to park. Whoever makes the Publix chicken noodle soup doesn’t have the right recipe because the one at 68^th tastes completely different. Also the chicken totilla soup is a $ 1 more here than the one on 68^th, why? This Publix is just lacking in what Publix is supposed to be. They get two-​stars because the staff is pretty nice. I feel bad for them because of all the crazies that go in there. Get it together Surfside.

I came here on a Friday night with a friend to pick up a Red Box Blu-​Ray. It was quick and seamless. As others have mentioned, there is a parking lot and a parking garage for patrons. The uphill conveyor belt for customers, which leads you upstairs to the store entrance, was interesting. Usually, if you’re lucky enough to have a 2-​story Publix, they will have an escalator, not this conveyor belt concoction. That is usually reserved for shopping carts, so I thought this was different.
The store inside was quite large, clean, and well-​stocked. The crowds seemed normal, no weirdos or dregs. I wanted to give this Publix 4 stars, but that changed once we paid for our merchandise. I did not like the fact that the cashier just threw our box of tea and although he bagged the milk, he did not bag the tea nor did he remind us to take it. Had it not been for the fact we turned around and looked at the bagging area and saw the box thrown in a corner there, we would have paid for the tea and left without it. Please hire less neglectful employees, Publix! I dread to think of what would happen with some delicate fruits. You’d probably come home to some bruised, smashed, burst fruits with that kind of service… Oh, and no «thank you» as we were leaving, though we said «thank you, good night.» Tsk, tsk.

Around 1pm today, As I was in the registered ready to pay the cashier (sorry don’t remember the name) this nice gentleman notice that one of the bottles of juice I was buying was open and advised someone to please bring back one with the safety seal intact. Thank you for the great customer service!

The pharmacist had no tact while dealing with customers. I would not recommend going here for the pharmacy at least.

The staff at this Publix is hardworking and courteous. The prices are too high in general and I wish there was a competing store nearby. Aside from that, it is good. The sandwiches are very good.

Best Publix ever! Staff is amazing, stores a little small and cramped but hey I’ll deal with that to have service like that! Paige at customer service is awesome and Trudy the manager is so helpful. Love this Publix. Free valet parking as well. And its so easy to catch a cab here.

This Publix is probably one of the worst I’ve experienced. It is ALWAYS crowed, to the point where you can’t even move your cart around the store. The people who shop here are either very old people, often very cranky and taking up the entire aisle or snooty mothers with whiny children screaming in their cart; it is very tiring to shop in this store. For some reason I also feel as if the prices here are slightly higher then other publix locations. The parking here is also a nightmare, it does have a lot of parking but there are WAY to many people shopping here to ever find a spot without having to wait. There is valet for free during the day but the line to do it is so ridiculously long it’s pointless.

My favorite publix. I come here 1 – 2 times a week. Its a small publix with tourist-​y feel to it, but the covered parking lot and service keep me coming back.

unfortunately its been years of a disappointment after another. the meat its horrible, so bad that is a health issue at this point. I got food poisoning from their meat once and unfortunately nothing changed there even after speaking with management. today i went there and it was brown and old meat in most shelves .i got the meat managers (not the general manager) attention and he started to speak really loud and aggressive as that would change my mind about my complaint. I live in Surfside since 1998 I wish we could have «not rotten» meat and fish at publix. All the other departments are really great, great bakery.

This has become my new store since the one across the street has closed for a year. It is always crowded probably for this same reason. I can still usually find the things that I am looking for and have not had any major issues so far.
It also has a pharmacy which is helpful because that is where my hubby and I have had our RXs filled the last few years and they even had our records from Georgia in their system so no switching was needed. Just an address update.
I have never used it but there is complimentary valet parking which I am sure is helpful to some people. Also the garage for parking, although also a pain usually has enough spaces for me to find one.

So I haven’t been to a Publix in say 10 years, but I have to say this one was the best! Even the shopping carts can ride the escalator…
Nice layout, parking garage underneath, and impeccably clean! The produce and meat selections were fresh, and you can even buy beer and wine.
The staff was super friendly and eager to help me find what I needed – Unlike grocery stores back home, where they grunt an isle number at you, the staff here actually brings you the item OR take you right to it!
Being on vacation and not wanting to cook — The selection of prepared foods and snacks was amazing, along with the bakery case for morning breakfast items. You can even buy a slice of birthday cake for that midnight craving of sweets!
Only complaint, it was a little too cold in there, but that is about all I can complain about!!!

I tried this Publix after being quite disappointed with the one closer to me (6876 Collins Ave.). I’ll definitely be using this as my regular Publix now that I’ve tried it out.
Easy parking. It’s part lot, part garage (on the first floor only). After parking, you can either take the elevator, stairs or a «people mover» (a flat escalator) up to the store. The carts are outside, to the right of the elevator.
The aisles are a bit tight, but over all well organized and very clean. The staff are very helpful and nice and they seem to like their job. The women’s bathroom was very tidy, too. Exiting with a cart, you have to take the elevator down to the ground level. Don’t worry, three carts fit at once.
