Kroger Bakery offers a wide selection of freshly baked daily goods like breads, pastries, croissants, cakes, cookies, muffins, and cupcakes. Friendly associates are available to help create special occasion treats. However, reviews note significant issues beyond the bakery. The store has many empty shelves and difficult aisles due to carts from personal shoppers and daytime restocking. Checkout is often limited, pushing customers toward self-checkout. There are strong criticisms of the employee situation and management, described as the blind leading the blind, with calls for better frontline staff support instead of executive pay.
