“What a wonderful store and asset to the community! Their B. Haleeb yogurt and labneh are phenomenal, they have a great selection of many spices, rices, meat and Middle Eastern specialty foods. AND the staff are so welcoming and helpful! This is your go-to place for Middle Eastern foods and supplies.”
“Good kimchi and price and decent section of ramen. I've gone several times now. Definitely not alot of choices around here. It's good for a place to go because not everyone can go-to troy for the big market..He's nice and overall I'm happy. I'm not made to feel like I don't belong. Prices can be a bit steep on some things but it's also a local business.”
“This is my go-to halal spot! I love the selection of foods and the fresh food is always amazing! The service is also great and the owner is always very friendly!”
“I’ve been shopping at the Aldi on Corunna Rd in Flint for a while now, and it never disappoints! The store is always clean, organized, and stocked with everything I need. The staff is friendly, and I’ve never had any issues with checking out quickly. I’m especially impressed by their fresh produce section—it’s always top-notch and reasonably priced.”
“This is the best place to get olives. I literally will not get olives anywhere else if I have a choice. I'm excited for the reconstruction, but I am missing my olives!!!”
“Hands down the best gas station in the Grand Blanc area. Even when it’s busy, the lines move incredibly fast because they have plenty of pumps and the extra-long hoses, so it doesn't matter which side your gas cap is on. The prices are consistently the lowest you’ll find in Genesee County, and the station is always clean and well-lit. It’s well worth the membership just for the fuel savings!”
“This place is seriously awesome!! They have alkaline water, organic grains, oats, beans, and all sorts of other natural goodies. The staff seemed super knowledgeable and very welcoming. Plus, they have a ton of made to order food, drinks, smoothies, and snacks to choose from. I’ll definitely be back!”
“Always busy and crowded but the staff manages check out lines well. I've never had to wait more than 10 minutes. Employees are friendly and helpful when I've had a problem finding something. Shelves are always well-stocked and tidy. I love the Kirkland brand. We shop here because it's a less expensive place for many good quality gluten-free and dairy-free options. It's also helpful to be able to fill my gas tank for less than other gas stations. It's worth the drive!”
“No waiting. With my 40 cents off fuel reward, my gas was very reasonable. I passed by another gas station that is known for their low prices on fuel because of the long lines at the pumps. I was literally the only one at this Kroger gas station and paid less than I have paid in months. (Under $3.50 a gallon using my Kroger rewards.)”
“Great store. It's changed. They help you a lot. They are a great store. It's not like it used to be. But the owners now are amazing. It's a great store for our community”
“Very friendly and quick service. The portion sizes are amazing and filling. Prices are very reasonable and the food tastes great!! Will definitely eat here again and highly recommend you try it if you want some amazing food!!!”
“Coldest Beer & Wine In Town Happy Friendly Customer Service If We Ain’t Got What Customers are Looking For We For Sure Will Get what They are Looking For! Customer Satisfaction is #1 Priority”
“I used to go to Shorthorn near Clio, but after moving to Flint, this place has been my new go-to for meat. They've got a great selection of meat, spices, and general groceries, and their ground beef prices are some of the lowest I've seen around. They'll have very good specials sometimes, so keep an eye out!”
“I called ahead to see if they had something, they said yes so I went but they didn't have it. No big deal but frustrating.They have great selection of items. Great for party planning & get together.”
“The guys here are of our clothes... truly people that have embraced the sense of neighborhood and community to the fullest. They pull their own weight and play their part as well.”
“The store is a gem in the heart of Flint. For those of us wanting a more natural way of life this is where you want to shop. The PH water will make you stop buying bottled plastic water. The variety of homemade soups are delicious and washing it down with one of their lemonades will end you day with delight. They also, have a rack outside, with free items for those in need in the community.”
“I have not been here personally, but my brother’s family are regulars. I was touched by the kindness from Franklin that my sister-in-law, Lisa just shared with me after a tragic loss in our family. The compassion he showed my brother and his family were above and beyond, and that speaks volumes for this business. Thank you.”
“Delicious and easy dips and deserts for my Tea Parties and charcuterie events. The Key Lime pies, fruit dips, classic dips are delightful. Store my CHC assortments in the freezer for quick on-hand dips. A party lifesaver!”
“I had a beautiful experience there today with such a wonderful employee I didn't get her name but she was very helpful I'm finding these things to help my daughter who has been sick lately. Thank you so much for your kindness and help!”
“Almost just like a Kroger's or a VG's supermarket, which is didn't know until earlier today!! I'll definitely be doing some shopping here for real!!...”
“It's rare that I participate in a survey, but I was impressed the moment I walked in the door and was greated with a jovial "Helll-oooo" while the cashier was checking someone out. I honed in on his interactions at the front while I shopped and noticed genuine interest and enthusiasm in his voice with each customer. His good mood was contagious. In an age where quality customer service seems lost, Daniel shines. Take care of that boy, he is certainly taking care of your store and customers. I will make it a point to shop there regularly all thanks to the exceptional experience Daniel created for all the customers in the store this afternoon.”
“I love the North Flint Food Market! It is a community(member)-owned grocery store that anyone can shop at, with a surprisingly wide variety of food including fresh produce, excellent customer service and a real love for our community. I love that the store sells a culturally inclusive array of food, is getting a hot food bar up and running, and carries some natural and organic food items too! The North Flint Food Market (NFFM) was created because people believe that residents of Flint and surrounding communities deserve healthy, high-quality food. Large grocery store chains tend to locate in suburbs outside of cities including Flint, and there were no quality grocery outlets in north Flint. So a group of residents with a vision started NFFM as a co-op and hundreds of people joined them in becoming members, pooling their membership dues to build the store. Now that it's built we need to shop there and keep growing the membership so that this quality grocery store thrives and keeps feeding our community! Food prices at NFFM are competitive compared with independent grocery stores in Flint and some larger chains too, and will become even better as more people shop there. I encourage everyone to become a member! The one-time membership fee is affordable, and there are payment plans so you don't have to pay all at once. I live in south Flint but wanted this store for my community so I joined as a member years before it was built. I shop at the store too, and love the atmosphere and selection of fresh, canned and frozen food! I was just reading about how healthy wild blueberries are for our health and a day later found some in the freezer section of NFFM - then turned around and found organic butter beans which were delicious and you can't even find at Meijer!”
“HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Very friendly staff. I’ve been getting items from them for multiple companies. They always go above and beyond for their customer. If they don’t have an item they will get it for you.”
“Love the prices and the fact there are no long lines. The clearance section could use a little work. The managers are well equipped but need to learn more about their tethered system. Moving over to New software made it impossible to use digital coupons with manufacturing coupons. I think they should move their clothes rack back and pull their sunglasses and outdoor stuff upfront instead and the racks outside look horrible clean that up. All above they do a great job!”
“While it doesn't look like much from the outside it is a store for great meat deals. It looks like they keep it clean as much as they can. It needs some updates. But the meat prices and customer service here have never been bad.”
“Associate's were helpful in finding the items I needed. Although checking out was slow it was due to the cashier assisting a few people with special needs and making sure they understood what they were doing, which to me shows how well this particular cashier has compassion and cares about her customers as a whole no matter the situation! I've never been disappointed when i have visited this store and i recommend it to people!”
“Always had a great experience while in the store, Although I do miss Mike and the others he once gave me a cold bottle of water and a seat to rest when I was struggling with the heat from walking and I've always remembered that ,I hope the new owner has a good people/customer ethic so I can appreciate the new workers and owner the way I would like.”
“Great place to hangout and guy watch. Just got a place last year over on Monteith, so it's pretty convenient to pick up a few beers and a dude or two then head back to the hut.”
“I frequent the Dollar General on Coldwater Rd. Within the past year there has been a significant difference with the service and cleanliness! In all honesty, I actually enjoy shopping in there now. The staff greets you when you come in. The floors are clean (to be concrete floors) and it even smells clean now. There is no stale stench in the air. The shelves are stocked and I can actually make my way down the aisle without having to walk around products or trip over boxes (I can't say that for the surrounding Dollar Generals) Not only that, I've also overheard other customers saying the same thing! It's nice to know that they take pride in our local store now.”
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 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.
