“Hey, it's Trader Joe's! They are great and it's been a few years since I lived close to one. For the most part, items from Trader Joe's are both better and less expensive than elsewhere. Still awesome, I wish they would bring back the New Zealand lamb and Australian beef! I would love it if they expanded the low carb selection but they are still the best!”
“Absolutely ? love this place. Although today I shopped and got home to find half of my quail eggs got smashed since the bagger put them in with my 1 gallon of milk and 4 1pints of juice lemonades. We are human there's a possibility that the bagger was new. No biggy. Of yall want really good juice lemonade go to WARDS.”
“Great market with a nice atmosphere and a wide variety of products. Everything is clean, well organized, and easy to find. The staff are friendly and helpful. You can also find halal foods here. I had a very good shopping experience and would definitely recommend this place.”
“The service here is amazing. The organization of the store is superb. Deli? Delicious subs. Fresh baked goods. The seafood salad is yummy. Management is quick to arrive if the clerk isn't meeting company standards. Regular Publix shopper.”
“It's been a out 5 years since I was in this store. The lead lady Kim was totally refreshing patiently guiding me through the Self Checkout process and further educating me on download advantages, weekly savings items.”
“Most affordable dairy products in town. Their turtle cheesecake makes this terrible regime more survivable. Aldi's seems like they care more about me being able to afford groceries, then the people who are supposed to care. I appreciate it.”
“This is a great place to shop for authentic Latin America ingredients for any recipe you’re making. They’ve got things here. You’re not gonna find anywhere else in town and the staff is super helpful.”
“Sometimes you find great things. Sometimes you find some awesome seasonal items, but the people are always nice. The products are always fresh it. Saves me money. And they have so many different varieties, more than even what's available sometime, sometimes.At the major chains”
“I only buy my steaks here at this location. I like to buy the whole filet mignon and they clean them up and cut them right to size. Great service and very helpful.”
“What can I say? It's Publix! It's always better than any other grocery store. 18 eggs are $4 cheaper than at Winn Dixie, (which is a disgusting store). I'm hooked on Publix, clean, good grocery store.”
“This store is by far my favorite grocery store for herbs, spices, fresh produce, and interesting food from India! The staff is lovely and supremely kind~ Is always a joy to shop there! The discount for pay cash is a definite plus! ?”
“Publix is a good place to shop, and you can find some decent deals, but overall, the prices are not as competitive as Aldi or Walmart. Most items tend to be on the expensive side 🫰. I usually shop at Publix when there isn’t an Aldi or Walmart nearby or when I just need to pick up a few things quickly. For larger monthly grocery shopping, I personally find Sam’s Club to be a better value. Overall, Publix is convenient and has a good selection, but if saving money is your main priority, there are more affordable options.”
“A truly hospitable place to shop. The store owner was delightful and helped me plan for a special dish! I recommend you stop in—there are many interesting products!”
“This store is the only one that has the bread, sweets and other items that are must haves in my household. The employees are some of the best in the business, I always feel welcomed and appreciated. I recommend them 10/10 to all my friends.”
“Nice small store with good selection. Friendly people. Good management. Clean. There’s nothing not to like about this little store. Easier to get around then the big store just to parking lots over. My friend also prefers the store over the big store.”
“I went into this Publix to get a sub sandwich and a chocolate cake. Matt in the bakery was extremely helpful and pointed out the specific cake my co worker wanted. And the Deli had the sandwich made right when I walked in. Thank you Matt and the deli staff!”
“The Fresh Market in Gainesville is always a great place to shop, but above all, do yourself a favor and get the chicken salad. It is absolutely delicious, incredibly fresh, and easily one of the best things in the store. Get some for now and some extra for later because it is definitely worth it. The atmosphere is always welcoming, and the staff is consistently friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The store itself is extremely clean—honestly immaculate—and the displays are always beautifully arranged. I love the homey feeling, the attention to detail, and the overall aesthetics of the store. They also have a great variety of organic, fresh, and healthier food options. The prices are a little higher than a typical grocery store, but you really do get what you pay for when it comes to quality, freshness, selection, and presentation. Overall, The Fresh Market in Gainesville is a great shopping experience. Between the clean store, helpful staff, beautiful displays, and high-quality food, it is definitely worth stopping by. And seriously—do not leave without trying the chicken salad.”
“Nice selection of dry groceries and small selection of meats, premade, refrigerated foods and cheeses in a small market setting. There is a small area which includes cooked empanadas and other fried foods, as well as pastries and desserts, and coffee (Americana style and latte). Staff is helpful and professional.”
“My family was visiting from florida and needed to go to this store a couple of times during our trip. I like the store, although navigating it is a bit confusing sometimes. The prices are reasonable and the selection was great. I found everything I needed. What stood out the most, though, is the friendliness of the employees. Every single person I encountered was engaging and kind. I was asked a couple of times how I was doing and if I needed help finding anything. Such a great experience. I always love visiting Publix grocery stores when visiting.”
“my girlfriend and i walk here on the regular for drinks and the person behind the counter is always polite. the first time we ever stopped in, the attendant told us a really cute joke about indian grandmothers and made a long time customer out of us. (P.S., please keep stocking the orangeade arizonas! youre the only place in town that sells them and theyre amazing)”
“Their nice... The current team is definitely better than the ones at Tower Square!... Although they're not very good at acknowledging you there either! Have a lot of youth working at the time andI remember working for Publix we had was a rule if someone was within six feet you would speak you, would greet saying hello, let me know if you need anything!? Now they put their heads down and try to run away, but that's the youth some of the management are like! That especially at Tower square. For example I was shopping for some fresh made salads and deli sliders in the deli case, there was a staff member look like a manager.... unpacking boxes I guess he was a bit irritated. He wanted me to move around but didn't know how to politely say it or whatever! He didn't greet me or say ANYTHING. Later as I was taking a photo or something he asked me could he help me? On my way out the door! It was crazy. It seemed like he knew what he was doing.... you couldn't speak to me whenI was almost in your personal space but now when I'm heading out the door you want to ask me what's wrong? Anyways I'll just deal with this one over here....”
“this is a pretty nice Publix. I've been to a bunch of them in Florida Georgia, etc. and I would say this is one of the bigger ones. They have a really good childcare department caring a lot of the formulas which is really nice. The pro department is nice and when I went there at the bakery department was extremely helpful. it's very large and spacious as well and extremely clean from when I went. Weirdly enough the parking lot has large parking spots, which is nice. The prices are normal for any Publix. Everyone here was very nice and helpful and they seem to have everything you need. one of my favorite Publix of all”
“I find that the produce is much better here than the grocery stores and there is more variety. The cheese selection is excellent. The people in the cheese department are very educated about the cheese. A gentleman helped us today who was very informative and helpful.”
“Publix is a nice supermarket , but they need to lower some of their prices. This Publix on Main Street is small but it’s the only one closest to my home. They also need a bigger selection on Latin groceries products like the one on archer road.”
“It's by the college so parking is an issue but it's like a convenient store you go in and come out easily so I give it a b plus only because parking is an issue”
“While waiting in long lines at a Publix in Destin, FL, with several lanes closed, I realized I've never experienced something like this before at my Publix. I understand there is more foot traffic there. My visits to other Publix stores this summer didn't leave much of an impression either. At this Publix, the staff works diligently—managers promptly open new registers and greet me warmly, making me feel appreciated. I want to recognize their effort.”
“best place, innocent businnessman. he doesnot loot people. very nicely priced. he do not have much collections, but what ever he has are genuinely priced.I have switched from other indian store to this one recently.”
“Abondened store on Archer. Never has Publix soda in stock and screwed up my last three online hoagie orders. Newberry store is quieter, staff is very friendly and they stock the soda! Last time I was there, I ordered thin sliced baloney and he sliced it beautifully. Archer store is closer but Newberry store is better. I'll go the extra mile.”
“I enjoy this Publix location, including the pharmacy. Everyone I have ever interacted with has always been pleasant, knowledgeable and more than willing to help. From the Pharmacy, the Deli, the Bakery, the Produce Dept. To the Meat and Fish Sections and everything in between !!! Smiling faces all around. I always feel better after shopping at Publix than I did before I arrived!!!”
“We love the new Aldi location so close to our house. The aisles are wider than other Aldi locations in town, so it's easier to manouver carts and get to the things we need. Everything is rotated regularly and there are always enough staff. We can easily shop on week days or the weekend.”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
