“Always clean and organized. More importantly is the staff. Always friendly and most staff have worked here for years. It's so nice to shop and see employees that have been around and always have a genuine smile ?!”
“Disappointed that the Eagle River Carr’s most of the time only has self registers open instead of employees working them. I don’t get paid to scan and bag my own groceries.”
“Always met with a smile and the employees are always willing to help out the best they can . The parking lot has ample handicapped parking space. The bathrooms are always clean and handicapped accessible . If for some unseen reason you need customer service someone is always there to help you with money wires purchase , money orders and even returns as needed .”
“Carr's is a previously familiar owned group of Alaskan stores that provided premium products and service to Alaskans for years. A few years ago the Carr-Gottstien family sold all their stores to the Safeway chain. Safeway kept the names for many of the Alaska stores and have continued the Carr's tradition of excellence. Their main competitors are Costco, Fred Meyers and Three Bears stores.Carr's is known for their fresh produce and fruits as well as their meat and fish. Carr's is a truly excellent store with friendly employees and reasonable prices in a highly competitive market in Alaska.I have left many smaller and truly fine grocery and specialty stores out of this review as it is about Carr's and not all of the markets. Many are equal to Carr's and some provide the unique needs of Alaskans.”
“I shopped here on my own before hiking. I found a few Alaska souvenirs. Kinda spendy here, so waited to buy at Walmart. Found cheap bagged salads here. Also 2 day of the dead skull tins with smarties inside for $1 each. Saw more unique items such as Alaskan popcorn company. There are no plastic bags in this part of Alaska. Yes! Please get rid of these in MN please! They charge for a paper bag, but girl helping said the small paper ones are free.”
“The hypermarket is a little better than Walmart in terms of the abundance of food, but the prices are a little higher. For a dollar or two. But you can find beets for borscht that are not available in other stores”
