King Soopers

This is an extremely clean and well stocked store. The employees are always helpful and friendly. The produce department really sets itself apart. My only company is it can take a while to check out. But that’s usually when they are really busy.

This is my first time ever at a King Soopers, but being a native of Cincinnati, where their parent company Kroger is based, I found a whole slew of similarities, including décor, signage, and more notably, Kroger-​branded products. Good prices on things, and good service. Thought it was odd that their entrance is an open air curtain (like some warehouse stores), and not a sliding door like you might see back home. But when I’m out there visiting family, it’s a good place to get some basics at a good low price.

I only shop at king soopers. Coupons are great. Good selection and low price. But every time it go in they have a very nice lady (who is more than old enough to be my grandmother) pulling in carts. While there are plenty of young people inside bagging groceries. I stop to help her whenever I see it. This is wrong. I refuse to shop at this one for that reason.

Agreed, for drugstores, this is an unnecessary addition, but as a grocery store it’s okay.
We tend to go to King Sooper’s for three reasons; they send us great coupons, they cost less than Safeway, and my son loves running around the well-​lit aisles (and they let him). They do a great job providing nice little amenities for kiddos, like the free cookie and penny horsey ride.
Also, I like how we can have the choice of cashier or self-​check. My son learns the value of a dollar and how to use a barcode reader all in one go. But, when I’m too tired to self-​check, I like wheeling up to a register. Everyone is very nice and polite.
The only areas I wish were improved was selection of where they purchase meat and poultry. I’ve brought home their only brand of ground beef and found gray parts in the center, which could be a sign of bad handling. If we had more locally raised and butchered meat I’d buy it there more frequently. Instead, I try to buy grass-​fed over in Loveland, when I actually buy red meat.

There are basically 3 Windsor drugstores right next to each other: Walgreens, Safeway, and king soopers. Of the 3, king soopers would be my last choice. It is not terrible, there are just better options.
