Kroger

Absolutely thrilled to have found this Kroger. I usually shop at whole foods, earthfare or Harris teeter. I was absolutely amazed at the great organic/​health/​wellness selection. The best part is the prices are fantastic compared to the aforementioned. The staff is great and they even offer a piece of fruit for children while they shop.

I only go to this Kroger because it contains the closest Starbucks to my work. Never seems really fresh and clean and it has a weird layout.

Great natural and organic food selection but these guys need to clean their store or fire everyone there and get an entirely new staff. Take a walk through the Garner location and then check this Apex location out. Totally different. I never went to this particular Kroger simply because it was a disaster on more than one occasion.

Never been so grossed out before. Walked in first scallops and shrimp mixed in same fresh plate. Then went to meat section walked by beef and pork sections and they all had spoiled meats. Walked out never will go back.

Overall this grocery is decent with its selections, service, price, etc. Would have rated it as 4 or even marginally a 5, if not for two glaring issues I not use so often: 1. Customer Service counter: this area is also used for western Union, tobacco, lottery, and numerous other things; the way of handling return, which I rarely rarely do in grocery stores, is very unpleasant to say the least; 2. Bathroom is dirtyyyyyy.

Love Kroger but DO NOT LOVE the new Starbucks employee who yells HEY CUTIE at me every single time I walk in the door. It’s NOT a complement, I know I’m cute, it’s HARASSMENT and NOT APPROPRIATE for an employee at a grocery store.

I relocated to the Triangle recently, more specifically Apex, and coming from a small town with only Food Lion, Harris Teeter, and outrageously overpriced health food stores, I was very excited for the variety of grocery stores because I love to cook. I’m a vegetarian and tend to buy organic, healthy food, so it’s usually hard for me to find everything I’m looking for at a grocery store.
That being said, I absolutely love Kroger. They are reasonably priced and have sales frequently, their staff is friendly and helpful, and they ALWAYS have what I’m looking for!
Their produce section is great, they have plenty of local and organic produce at great prices. They also have an «organic/​health food» section that is absolutely the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I buy weird health food all the time, and always find what I’m looking for here. From vegan cheese, yogurt, and fake meats, to liquid aminos and whole grain pastas, Kroger never disappoints. They have a huge wine selection and a fancy ‘wine room’ which there’s usually a consultant working. The rest of their store is great too, I’ve seriously never seen so many different choices at one place.
This store is great. I am picky about the ingredients I use, and this store satisfies my grocery lists every time. Living in Apex, I could easily go down the street to Whole Foods, Harris Teeter, Food Lion, or Target, but this store consistently has everything I need.

This has been my go-​to store of choice since 2007 when we first moved to Chatham County. Yes, there are several grocery stores closer to our home (Food Lion in Pittsboro or Apex, Harris Teeter off Williams St. in Apex), but I drive the extra miles for this store. The produce department is impressive, as is the 4-​aisle organic food section. Meat department has a large organic food selection and I regularly buy the Simple Truth store brand organic meats and other items at reasonable prices. Store coupons are mailed to my house almost weekly, and always include items I purchase most frequently. The best story — and the reason I decided to write a review — is what happened this past Sunday when I shopped there. When I finished unloading my groceries at home (some 25 – 35 minutes away), I realized that I had left a bag at the store. I called to see what the options were. The store manager, Andrew, offered to drive the grocery bag to my house! We ended up negotiating a halfway meeting spot and he arrived as planned to give me the forgotten bag. Not only did he drive all that way, but he even gave me a $ 10 store gift card for my «trouble». He had said on the phone several times, «I’ll do whatever is most convenient for you to make this right.» That’s amazing customer service. It may not be as upscale as Harris Teeter (Kroger needs to update their shopping carts and the restrooms), but the prices are far better and the things that matter most to me (produce department and organic meats) are spot on at far better prices. I’m hooked.

I’m learning to like This Kroger more and more. Did you know Kroger bought Harris Teeter last year. I m hoping that Kroger will change a bit and feel less cluttered with POP stuff at the end caps of the aisles. I know that they like all grocery and drug stores make a ton of money off this stuff but iit pulls down the feeling of the store. I love all the gluten free and vegan stuff all in one place. I didn’t at first when I spent forever looking for almond milk. We started going here to use REDBIX. I like that it is just inside the door. Last night we ran over late to drop off and the young guy locking up had no prob waiting for us. Really nice.

This is a lovely Kroger — the interior with muted colors (browns, beiges, light greens) reminds me of grocery stores from the 1980s, but the store is quite clean and nicely organized. I like how the organic/​natural section is separate from the rest of the store. As for selection, I was able to find pretty much everything I needed. The Starbucks on the inside was nice (might spruce up the seating area though — was not terribly inviting). Otherwise, terrific grocery store — wish it were in Cary!

OK for a Kroger — the produce section is nice — the rest of store could be organized better.

Two things stand out at this store– the wide selection of food and the service provided. The store has a good produce section, butcher, and deli. The deli offers a good variety of olives and cheeses, and the staff is always very friendly and helpful.
Management does a good job emphasizing customer service, I’ve been impressed on multiple occasions. For example, today I ordered a filet at the butcher counter and the butcher said that he was getting ready to cut some and if I wanted to continue shipping it would be ready in a few minutes. I said that was fine and a few minutes later he actually tracked me down to hand deliver the steak to me. I really appreciate above and beyond service like that.
The only complaint I would have for the store is that oftentimes it is a little too cluttered with point of sale displays and offerings in the aisles. I think grocery stores can just be grocery stores, no need to necessarily offer fireworks, grills, and DVDs, is there? That’s what Target is for, right? Apart from that I think this is a great store that has a lot of employees with great attitudes!

Thanks for the best selection of gluten free products in Apex /​Cary without having to pay the up charge at Whole Foods. No near my house, but worth the trip for specialty foods and decent prices.
Also. Many thanks for being the only store that carries Skyline Chili in a can. Anyone who’s tried to make their own Skyline 3-​way appreciates that!

We don’t have Kroger in the Charlotte area, so I thought I might give this chain a chance for my dinner. A really nice shop which has a Starbucks in the produce area (not sure if it’s an actual *$ or if it is operated by Krogers). I liked the olive section, which was really tidy. And the sushi area looked excellent, getting my vote for dinner. I picked up a spicy tuna roll and a squid salad to start.
As for the rest of the store, pretty decent. If it was near me, I would be giving it a decent slice of my grocery business.

I’m knocking Kroger down a star because I’ve been pretty disappointed with their produce section lately. A lot of their produce has been bruised, damaged, or just plain rotten, and this is gross and unhealthy. Also, I haven’t seen Fromager D’Affinois in their cheese section in over a year. Harris Teeter usually has a better cheese section.
I’ll still keep coming here for gas, because it’s a good deal, and unfortunately this is the most convenient place to stop at on my way home for groceries. But I’m really hoping they either keep a better eye on their produce, or a better grocery store opens up that’s more convenient for me.

We used the Kroger gas station right next door. The attendant was very friendly and helpful! He offered supplies to help change oil. Very nice experience!

I pass by this Kroger on the way home from work. I’m a fan of the layout of the store and really like their $ 4.99 rotisserie chicken for a quick convenient dinner.

I am a fan of Kroger. When you use your Kroger card you can get points and you can save money at Shell when you accumulate enough points.
Competitive prices, clean store. Kroger’s in the south are smaller than the ones up north. This store is larger and has more product. Isles are labeled and they keep the store very neat.
Friendly service at checkout.
