Kroger

If I could give this store 0 stars, I would. I’ve purchased food that is spoiled from the deli, packaged food off the shelf, and now the meat department. I’m now officially done.

I do love my Kroger BUT after shopping behind an entitled teen with her electronic cigarette blowing whatever the heck you blow from one of those things. I’ll find another store.

Literally the worst grocery store I have ever been to. And it’s not just one or two or three incidents, it is multiple ones. The most recent, which came after buying bad meat and chicken, was a cake from their bakery department. i guess I learned my lesson and to never buy one out of the case. No clue of when it was made. It looked really good and I am sure it was three days earlier when it was made but by the time we bought it and got home to eat it, this cake was uneatable. You can tell it had been made days earlier and the icing was hard, like literally HARD. Our fault for buying a cake at 8:30 at night but it ruined my daughter’s birthday party.
I contacted Kroger, got a generic response from them but never heard a word from the store or bakery manager. Contacted Kroger again to let them know that apparently the store management doesn’t care and never heard from them again.
So that is it, we are done shopping there. We will drive further and pay a little bit more to do all of our grocery shopping at Kroger. But we’ll still buy our gas from this Kroger since it is so cheap.

I think Kroger is the most aggressive of the big chains, at least in the Southeast. The are willing to pay to keep your loyalty. Thy remodeled this store and added better fresh food and deli sections. Big store and well stocked.

Aesthetically, a great store now that it has been remodeled, BUT the management should require the deli/​hot foods workers to wear plastic gloves. As I approached to order food, the worker was cleaning and then told me to take the item from the «prepackaged» containers. The serving was too much for one person, and I declined. She then squatted on the floor-​digging around for a plastic container. Finally, when she began to spoon my food, I realized she was NOT wearing gloves, AND her fingernails were nasty! Later, I gave the items to the cashier and told told her I didn’t want to purchase them.

I chanced upon this Kroger when I was about 30 minutes early for a meeting just down the street. I was in desperate need of quick internet to knock out some work while killing time. I saw that they had a starbucks inside and my fingers were crossed for some free wifi! The inside of this Kroger is super nice, clean, and feels brand new. They had a small free-​standing starbucks counter with a huge lounge area right in the front of the store. In addition to finding a cozy seat next to a faux-​fireplace, I was thrilled when I found on my ipad there was free wifi! And it was speedy! Who knew?! In Kroger! I was able to knock out a bunch of emails and do some online research in the 30 minutes that otherwise would have been wasted. You seriously made my day, Alpharetta Kroger :) Kudos!

Recently remodeled, this Kroger had a second «Grand Opening» this month. The flower department was beautiful. Great selection in cheese department. Lots of prepared food options, from salad bar to hot food bar to olive bar and I am sure others that I missed. Decent produce and great health food sections. Store was clean and bright. Big aisles, so there shouldn’t be too many collisions in the store. Hope they keep the place looking this good after all the brass leave town.

This Kroger is pretty close to my house, however I usually opt to go to the Windward location (because it’s new, clean, and has lots of yummy specialty items). However, they are currently remodeling (so I would definitely recommend you don’t go now, as of thanksgiving), so I bet when this opens it is going to be awesome! I will post an update when that finally happens!
Also, this location has a gas station, and they have the cheapest gas in the area by far.
