Publix

Ehhhrrrr meehhh. geëerd. This location has VALET parking.
That alone equals 10 stars, because it makes you feel like a rock star.
No.
Seriously. You feel like a Rock Star having someone pull up your car for you and you receive help loading all the goodies you just bought.
It reminded me of the Death Star in Los Angeles. (The Beverly Center mall)
We always called it the Death Star because
A.it’s so … well… ugly from the outside and plain.
B. You get lost inside and trapped like in a Vegas casino at 4am while your stumbling trying to find the exits and they set up the casinos to make you go through the ENTIRE casino to leave or just get to the hotel area… and so… like the death star… you’re just going round and round in circles trying to find the escalator DOWN to the next floor.
C. They have a nice selection of gourmet goodies here, like at Greenwise PubliX on PGA in the Legacy Plaza.
Super cupcakes. Bigger than your face, can be found here in the gourmet bakery section.

Beautiful store, however some of the employees should never of been hired. As I was shopping I hear stock clerks using profanity. The cashier who checked me out was rude, Not even a Thank you! The manager lady chewing gum as she speaks to the cashier. Publix is a great company however hiring skills should be implemented at this store!

Rudest managers ever in the history of Publix managers. Terrible experience today. Ohhhh wow you «work on Palm Beach». Big deal! Key word managers of the Palm Beach Island Publix, you all «work» you don’t live on the island. Get over yourselves! At the end of the day, they all work the same job that they have been working at since they were 16, yet act like they’re better than others because this store is located on the snooty Palm Beach island. Lol ok. Same old Publix with the same old deli, bakery, meat department etc. Might as well build a Walmart here too.

Best architectural Publix you will find with valet parking. No signs due to PAlm beach rules so you have to know where it is. Not the biggest but still a great stop for things you need for you Bungalo.

Yup, as good as it gets. Valet parking at Publix.

I don’t usually review grocery stores but this one happened to be very nice! I had to run in one day while looking for a party meal to serve my children. I came in and asked the manager where I could find a few of the products. He immediately gathered 2 to 3 members of his staff and they will grab what I needed within a few minutes! I could not have been more thankful to him! Thank you so much public!

Good size store fresher poultry and fish than other publix in area. Great selection of gluten free food. You’re treated different by employees if you are clearly wealthy. You will get extra perks like asking to bring your groceries to the car or refilling a produce that you came for is empty. Otherwise nope

I feel silly leaving a review for Publix. It’s a GROCERY STORE! I will say this, they have awesome produce.

truly an amazing publix!

Still new to Publix world this one is so wrong… what kind of supermarket has a valet parking?! Is this Middle East?
So food selection is awesome, coming from crappy NYC supermarket this is great, isles are wide enough for regular cart or your massive SUV.

If I could live here I would. More amenities than some of the luxury apartments in the area. I love this store. Way to go. Happy you guys are here.

I don’t live there now but do visit my family and after living in other areas where fresh local food and qualitly are priority I have to say I expected more from this high end location. Why they are not an organic focused store I have no idea. People, you can afford it! Instead it looks like an average store in an above average location. I don’t blame the store, customers drive the business and clearly the older people in PB have not become hip to fresh local organic food. When and if they do, I would guess the store will meet that demand…
It’s actually a sad statement that wealthy people there will not make the effort to support and DEMAND sustainably grown fruit and humane meat as well as purchase food that supports reduction in pestiside use.

Why review a Publix grocery store? Because it is on the island of Palm Beach! Still not convinced it is worth reviewing? It has valet parking! The selection of wines and cheeses is larger than the other local Publix stores and most importantly, it is the ambience I look for in my food shopping experience. I really dislike food shopping, so this store makes me motivated to get it done.
I am reviewing this after the big remodel and the dust has long settled. By dust, I mean the fresh niceness of the staff and the squeaky cleanliness of a newly opened store. But guess what? It is still clean and the staff are still super helpful and nice. Maybe they are super nice to me because I actually live on the other side of the intracoastal and I am not wearing the typical Palm Beach attire and I drive a Kia.
The valet is not what it used to be. I have never used it (though I want to pull the 04 Kia up and throw the keys to the valet man) but I always watch people pull up and utilize the service. From sheer observation, the old parking lot was small and very busy. The valet guys looked busy. Now, the new parking lot is a lot larger and feels closer than the old. The valet guys do not look as busy.
What else… you may ask the staff to order anything you can’t find (this actually goes for most stores around the area) and you will find that they have a hot bar, cheese counter, and soup and salad bar.
Overall I love shopping at this store. I love that it is beautiful, well lit, clean, and the staff are helpful. They also seem to not care that I am from the other side of the water. :)

I learned that the Publix over at Palm Beach has Boars Head’s Rosemary Ham (try it– it’s good) and is MUCH closer to my house than the Greenwise or the non-​organic Publix on Village (probably a 10 minute drive vs. a half hour). So I just HAD to give it a shot.
At first pass, despite knowing approximately where it was, we still drove right by the store. I don’t know why I was expecting to see a parking lot as we went by (silly me), but it’s pretty much camouflaged. We went around the block once and finally found it and WHOA– valet parking? Really? I kind of wanted to valet my car (it’s an 06 Escape, not really a shitbox, but definitely the type of car the help would drive), but that was mostly because I was worried the owners/​drivers of the two Rolls Royces, handful of Bentleys, and other cars WAY more expensive than mine would point to my car if they had a scratch on theirs.
All joking aside, it’s a Publix. I don’t see how people can expect some sort of magical hype just because it’s in a wealthy area. That being said, I love the selection of food here. Why? Because it is different from that in most of the other Publix locations I’ve visited, and it reminds me of the market I used to go to back north in Cambridge. I can find caviar. My special meat marinade that I’ve had a hard time finding is here AND there are different flavors. I want spelt bread? I can find it. Quinoa pastas? Also here. Bissli falafel snacks? Yep. Here. And of course, a delightful selection of Cadbury’s chocolates can be found. Dairy milk and Crunchies make my world go round. Oh, as well as the Boars Head rosemary ham. Seriously. It’s awesome.
It’s also quiet. When I went last Sunday, we were the only ones down most of the aisles aside from the people working there. I could spend time looking for things without being constantly bumped into by some degenerate’s kids or some self-​important parvenu in Juicy yoga pants who can’t get her organic stuff fast enough.
The remodeling is nice, the people who work there pleasant, and some of the patrons provide a great laugh without meaning to. I do miss the pre-​made deli section at the Greenwise, but at least that’s right around the corner from work.

This is, quite possibly, the richest grocery store in the U.S. Where else do you see a parking lot full of Bentleys (the Buick of PB)? The staff are ultra accommodating. The first time I shopped there and they offered to take my single bag to the car my jaw dropped. The fresh faced boy behind the deli counter automatically hands you a slice of whatever you are buying to nibble on. Like a lot of The Island, it’s like stepping back into the 1950s. And thank goodness for that.

Yay! This publix has mobile carts to get around in.

I was going to give it 1 star, but realized I was so let down because of all the hype, which isn’t their fault. That falls on people who think things taste/​look/​are better just because they have to drive over a bridge to get to them.
Honestly, it’s your average, older Publix with a little extra wine and meat. The organic and raw meat selection barely compares with Greenwise and the service is sub-​par. I had an employee come up and ask me what wine I was looking for, then proceed to leave me when an older lady asked another question. No big deal, but if he had at least given me a nod or acknowledgement, I would have been fine.
I figured… ok, maybe the food quality will be better and my trip and annoyance will have been worth it. Nothing amazing so far. Produce is mediocre in quality and average in selection. A few high end items were sprinkled through, but, say, the dried fruit and nut section was a third of the size of the one in Jupiter. The seafood looked nice, but no better than a couple of the other locations (not all).
Only worth the trip if you live in the area. If not, head to Greenwise and spare yourself the bad parking and cramped aisles.

5 stars for the fact that I am thoroughly amused by the fact that they have valet parking… yes, valet at a grocery store… gotta love Palm Beach! An extra 6^th star for the 112 year old lady who almost ran over my friend with her Jag while she was pulling up to the valet and actually GLARED with a look of such disdain at her as if my friend was in the wrong for being in HER way! HA! I love old ladies with a sense of entitlement — they crack me up.
oh, and their fried chicken in the deli section rocks!
