“The produce is absolutely amazing here!!! All of the fresh products are wonderful!!! I just wish there was more room to move around, this is a smaller location. Other than that, store is extremely clean and the staff is very pleasant ♥️”
“If you shop at trader Joe's you start to develop favorites. Things that they carry that are proprietary to them or that just seem better than what you might pick up at a regular grocery store. For example, they have some very fine cheeses that you don't see elsewhere. They carry a brand of mineral water that I am very fond of and almost no one else carries it. Employees are helpful and their registers are always manned adequately. They always carry flowers and especially there is a great selection around Valentine's Day.”
“It's the butcher shop you grew up with but better. Great steaks, marinated meats, sausages, prepared sides and appetizers, jerky and much more. Excellent service. The breakfast sausage is the best I've ever had. We buy Prime tenderloins there every year for Christmas Dinner. It's my go to place for tailgating food as well.”
“I looked them up to find garam masala, they couldn't have been more polite and helpful! Looks like you can order prepared food there too, I will definitely go back. Nice store ?”
“I’ve lived on both the East and West Coast, and this is by far one of the best Mediterranean/Turkish grocery stores I’ve come across. They have a great selection of authentic desserts and foods, plus a variety of Eastern European and Turkish wines and beers. I even found ice cream here that I would have never imagined seeing in this area! You can truly find everything you need in one place.”
“I just love going to that Detwilers. The amount of good quality produce is amazing.And the meat prices are excellent. The employees are funny and friendly and I really enjoy being there.”
“Detwiler’s is functionally similar to Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s. The price of food is about 10-20% higher than a neighborhood grocery, target, aldis etc. There are significantly less variety and food options than a typical grocery store, but the options are healthier, higher quality. Vegetables and fruits are fresh and often local. Prices are typically high. 3 for $2 corn. Down the street it is $3 for a $1. Quality seems a touch better than other markets, but we have definitely had to return moldy items before. The to-go sandwich portions are disappointing. Very disappointing. We bought pricy brisket sandwiches and they had two thin slices of meet. There were other issues with the to-go section but I’ll leave it there. The ice cream is excellent! Great prices. Truly Generous portions. They carry local Daken Dairy milk. Free samples around the store which is very nice. Able to try their homemade dips or items before purchasing. Adequate number of employees. Can always find someone if you need help. Added a star as we’ve been many more times and had good experiences. This is a fun grocery store. Almost as interested in grocery shopping as I am when I go to Stew Leonard’s.”
“Great place to shop and dream about cooking. Some stuff has good prices some is too high so be careful. Also you are buying restaurant sized goods so it's big! Love the place”
“The food was so fresh and delicious. The falafel and hummus were made in-house and all of our food was made to order. The shawarma was perfect. The portions were incredibly generous for the price, and the chef was very friendly and helpful. Janie's is a great addition to the neighborhood. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Parking is always a challenge here. Produce usually always looks good. Cashiers seem to make a lot of mistakes with not knowing the different types of oranges or greens. People are usually friendly.”
“Mary in the bakery was SO sweet to me and my daughter tonight!!! She went completely out of her way, above and beyond, for us, and made my night! My daughter got her free cookie, but nobody has ever before offered me, as mom, a treat too. I felt so seen 🥹. Thank you so much, Mary!!! What a sweet lady! A joy to come across. 🤗”
“Was the easiest transaction ever to order our food and pick up as we came in for the week. Thank you so much. I would only suggest maybe adding more parking for pickup orders”
“First off I was greeted upon entering store with a warm smile that was genuine. The owner immediately let me know if there was anything she could help me with, to let her know. I informed her it was my first time there and she took the time to then let me know how her discount store worked. We ended up having great conversation along with finding very low prices lower prices than Aldi's or save a lot could ever dream of. I live in Bradenton but will definitely be driving to Sarasota to continue to go to the store. Dry goods to snacks pasta drinks some things in the refrigerator like milk and eggs and I believe cheese bacon along with hygiene items miscellaneous and even some clothing definitely a gem of a store and I cannot wait to go back”
“As a tourist, I had to check out the local Publix and I was seriously impressed! 🛒🌴 What an amazing selection of absolutely everything. The store was beautiful, clean, organized, and everything from the fresh produce to the prepared foods looked incredibly high quality. You can definitely see why Publix is such a Florida favorite! 💚 Another pleasant surprise, I didn’t have to pay extra for plastic bags! 😄”
“Just another Publix with a slow deli, mid-grade produce and high prices. Decent bakery, especially their breads. This department brought it from 3 stars.”
“Have loved this place for years and just realized I had never left a review. The best interesting food and tea selection! Such a charming place and the staff is also lovely.”
“Publix is built above the parking garage. You either go up an escalator or elevator to reach the store. There’s parking in the parking lot as well as in the garage. The deli staff is friendly. The store is clean and fairly well stocked. The fried chicken and wing selection was sparse so I had to wait 25 minutes for the wings to be cooked.”
“Love this Market. The salad bar and hot bar are very good. I purchased one of their roasted chickens. It was so flavorful and kept very hot. It was absolutely delicious.. A great selection and if you live in LWR, you don’t have to cross over to get Into traffic to go to Whole Foods or The Fresh Market. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Thanks and, Keep up the great work!”
“I have been a customer at Piccolos for almost 5 years now since I moved down here from NYC. Being Italian, it was very hard to finally find a place that reminded me of the deli I used to go to in the Bronx. We eat here often and take food to go all the time. Recently, I had a party for my son’s 30th and instead of cooking all the food, I catered some from Piccolos and they did not disappoint. The food was delicious and the compliments from family and friends were amazing. One family member said that the pizza was the best that they’ve had since moving down here, another wanted only the chicken parmigiana and raved about it. My favorite was the 4 foot hero that I ordered especially for this party. We had 2 feet made with chicken cutlet, mozzarella and roasted red peppers and the other 2 feet was the DomD. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! We love Piccolos and the owners and staff are just some of the best people to deal with. If you are having a party, want some lunch, or want to bring home some of the freshest food (cooked and uncooked) this is the place you are looking for! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH AGAIN!! :)))”
“Great grab and go options from the restaurant. He place to pick up the very popular pot pies. Other grab-and-go items as well including fresh cookies and desserts.”
“BJ and Georgia are hands down THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN TO THIS DELI! First of all thank you to both you ladies for having a personality and ALWAYS making our day, also the quality of both their work is nothing short of amazing, you both work so hard and are always so good to us! Thank you so much! I hope management takes good care of you both, because this place needs that good energy and that super hard work ethic yall bring! We got nothing but love for you two amazing ladies! Thank you again for making our day!”
“I love the selection at this location and the people that work here are all soo friendly and kind. I had the pleasure of being taken care of by Matt & Cody tonight and Matt was so personable,sweet and very quick. I was checked out faster than I’ve ever been. These 2 really made my visit that much better. Thank you boys for taking such good care of me with a big smile. I will be coming back more and I hope they are both working!”
“Great prices. Tip: go early in the day if you want fresh produce (at fantastic prices). Their organic produce selection is small but you can find organic spinach,organic cucumber, salad mix, organic zucchini and sometimes organic broccoli. Notably, they do not have organic carrots.”
“This is such a small gem. The owner (I'm assuming) was very nice and food was delicious. We got the Ruben sandwich w pumpernickel bread, and the pierogies (cheese and potatoes, beef, and mushroom with sour kraut). The sandwich was probably the best part, I had some bbq chips on top the sandwich which made it taste better even. Will say, bathrooms (as of now) don't flush.”
“This Publix location DOES NOT have adequate available parking spaces besides the extended parking lot closer to Beneva Rd. I try to avoid this Publix for that particular reason. However their customer service is pretty decent.”
“A clean and convenient Publix with friendly staff We visited this Publix several times at different times of the day, and we really enjoyed our experience. We especially appreciated that the posted opening hours were consistently accurate. Most of the employees we encountered were friendly and helpful. The store was generally clean, well-organized, and not overly crowded, which made shopping comfortable. We used the deli section quite a bit during our visits and were very happy with it. There is also a small seating area next to the store where you can sit and eat. It was clean and comfortable, and there were charging outlets available, which was a nice bonus. The restrooms were also spacious and very clean, which we really appreciated. One small thing we noticed was that there was quite a bit of frost buildup inside one of the ice cream freezers. It looked like that particular freezer could use some maintenance. And one fun thing to mention: sushi is $5 on Wednesdays! We tried it, and honestly, it was pretty decent for $5. 😊 Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would definitely visit this Publix again.”
“Its a quaint little Publix that is like a condensed neighborhood market version of a full size Publix so it has the essentials and is much easier too get in/out with probably 1/2-1/3 of typical store size.”
“I love coming here in the morning for a double espresso, empanada and a cheesy bread it’s always delicious and fresh. Lately there has been a significant price hike but I believe they are adjusting to the market, either way this is a solid spot if you’re craving Colombian food!”
“I had to ship something off last minute and I got excellent service. I was in such of a hurry and it was great that I was able to get in and out without compromising service. I will definitely be coming back for my packing and shipping need!”
“What a great food !! What a great people! I ate pastel , coxinha and for sure I will be back for more . Mr Elias is such a charismatic person and Jen is a very welcoming one . The atmosphere is amazing exactly like Brazil .”
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.
