“All I gotta say is duh. Best store to get the best prices at any of their locations. This one specifically is near where I’m staying for a few weeks and had every single thing I needed, bought quite a bit and spent about a quarter what I would have at Walmart. Check the eggs! They’re priced what they were at other stores 10 years ago. 18 pack today for $2 (normal price)”
“The ladies who work here are some of the most lovely people I get to see, but the guys are usually grumpy and anti-social. Andrew is the best of the lot, but watch out if you have to deal with any of the other men 😬 The bathroom is my biggest gripe. The men's always smells like urine, and feels like I've stepped into an early 2000's silent hill game. It's smelly, broken down, and often lacking supplies. -1 star for that sorry excuse for a bathroom”
“I used the digital app and at check out had a had a hard time figuring it out. Tara helped me but I needed to go thru a regular check out. When I got to one low and behold there was Tara. Had a great experience checking out with her. As a retired Union checker, including working for Safeway, she earned a 5 star from me. Also love the small courtesy lady with long gray hair is the best. I wish I had workers that worked as hard as she does.”
“A lovely staff member named Frank helped me find where the fresh cut watermelon was. Super friendly and helpful!! Wish there were more people like Frank in the world!!!”
“The Drive-up and Go team is amazing. So cheerful and friendly, they create a joyful atmosphere and my kids love them. It is fun to see the team each week. They are hardworking and diligent. I never have any issues with my orders, they pick out great produce, which hasn't historically been the case for me. They will pick out the deals for me too, if I don't readily see them, e.g. buy-one get-one-free. I feel they are looking out for me, and that they genuinely care about me as a person. The orders are always done in advance of the scheduled time, and on or under budget. The substitutions are great and always delivered quickly to me, and if there is any question they contact me immediately. I have been using them for years and I absolutely love the service and the team. Meagan, Amanda, and Gabi, are so great! But so is everyone there. You will love these guys and how they make you feel! Watching them interact with others, I can tell you it is not just me who loves them and their amazing work ethic and cheerful personalities. I look forward to seeing them each week.?? Thanks ladies!!!!”
“Very friendly, great prices, fresh products, really relevant stock throughout the store, & pretty flexible hours for all kinds of people to make stops for many various things! ? ?”
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.

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.
