Baker’s Supermarkets

This Bakers and Whole Foods are my go-​to grocery stores here in Omaha. One of the first things I like here is that, unlike the Bakers at 120^nd and Center, this parking lot is somehow laid out better and isn’t so congested. Lots of businesses around here, the the traffic flows better, so there isn’t that frustration. The prices are good here (a little pricey at times, but these days, everywhere is expensive), and their sales are awesome – far better than their competition down the street. I find that if I shop the sales and stock up a bit, my annual grocery bill thanks me. This store also has a pharmacy and dry cleaners, and the staff is the most helpful of anyplace in town. I highly recommend this Bakers of all the Bakers, and certainly over the nearest business-​level competitor.

Be careful when you get the hot food or pre– made items. I have allergies. I asked what was in the seasoning. He was rude and said «spices». The spices that make you ill and can kill you. Be careful everything is dipped in dairy or gluten spices. I would not eat if you are allergy sensitive or intolerable…

Worst experience. I come grocery shopping 3 x a week and tonight I brought up organic eggs then when I set them on the belt I noticed they were expired, by 2 weeks! I kindly told them and the guy in charge at the front named Steven said I’ll go check them out. He brought me back eggs that expired today and said well I can do half off of these. I said no I don’t buy expired eggs and he walked away without getting me any others, i had to finishing checking out all my groceries then leave my cart at the front, get my eggs and wait in line behind a line of people. Worst thing to me is there were about 15 expired boxes! Who is checking this! Needless to say I will never return to Bakers. Hyvee now has all my business.

I just discovered this Bakers which is close to my new home– we didn’t have Bakers or Krogers in the areas I’ve lived before Omaha. I really like their organic freezer section and they have great «specials» on organic food. signing up for their card to get the discount storewide was was easy– go online and you don’t really even HAVE a card. the store is clean bright and nicely stocked. I haven’t really needed help with my bags or from the staff much but when I have they were pleasant. their checkstand was pretty fast for a Friday night. this last visit I saved nearly $ 5 and had points towards the gas and came in under budget so I was pleased. I heard a radio ad about their «organic» goods which led me to come see and I was happy with the selection and prices. the produce depart looked very nice too and they had a good selection of chili peppers including my favorite anaheims and poblanos and hatch. I’ve only been here a couple times but I like my experiences. parking lot is nice. the way out I wish they had a stoplight considering that’s a busy intersection but. that’s a complaint for the city not Bakers.

I’m an out of towner and this Baker’s is close to where family lives. Whenever we are in town, this is our go to grocery store. The store is quite large and is always clean, bright and inviting.
The food selection is excellent and the prices perfectly reasonable. The perks of this store are the selection of non-​grocery items. They’ve always got a sizable seasonal section with a lot of ever-​changing things. There is also a big selection of small appliances, cookware and diner ware. I’ve never really frequented the meat counter or produce section so can’t really speak to their quality.
I’m sometimes iffy about store cards being needed to get sale prices but it’s so common now as to not really bother me and with their card, you can earn gas savings to KwikShops. Another big bonus with this store is tied to that. You earn rewards points/​gas savings if you buy gift cards (they had a 4x deal going on cards when we were there last!) and they have a HUGE selection of gift cards. Baker’s cards, Target cards, and everything else you might want. I mention it because you could totally go in and buy a bunch of Baker’s gift cards to max out gas points and then use those to actually buy your food and basically double up the rewards. Most stores don’t have so many good gift cards to choose from so that alone is a big plus in the pro column for this store.
My only real complaint is that the last time we were there the cashier and bagger were deep in conversation with each other and completely ignored us and were borderline rude. Didn’t greet us AT ALL, when we asked for a Baker’s Card he said «Sure» quite coldly and literally threw the card to us after scanning it. When we left I said «Have a good day» and it was only at that moment that the cashier said «Bye» like he suddenly realized he should be polite to other people. Generally the service has been better, but that last trip docked them a star, honestly because it was just so dismissive.

This is very close to my house so I go often. I know where everything is and it’s super convenient… The guy in the wine department is always helpful and will do special orders. My only complaint is I wish the deli (meat and cheese area) was way faster, it seems to take them forever and the lady I always get to carry my groceries out goes on and on about how everyone she works with is crabby… I swear every time!!!
