King Soopers Marketplace

Wow– I’ve never been in a King Soopers before that sells clothing! This store has a sushi bar and a Starbucks too. Oh and if you need a watch battery changed or want to buy a new diamond ring there is a jewelry store to pass the time. It’s a beautiful new store with a lot of selection of foods.

Gorgeous store, the staff is very friendly and we love the drive thru pharmacy. I wish they would find a better place to store (or maybe they are hiding them?) the car carts though, lugging 3 kids around looking for a car cart is a pain.

Love the new store been here a few times and always friendly service ! The meat department girls also rock always have a friendly attitude along with a friendly smile! Thanks Trish for always being so helpful when me and my wife comes in! We love the great variety this store has to offer and the awesome samples and we love the sushi!

The pharmacy with I just don’t care attitude. My wife had an out patient surgery on her neck. So I dropped off the prescription for pain meds on our way home. Come to find out the doctor made a mistake and actually put the next day’s date down. By the time we got it resolved they were closed. Leaving my wife in a lot of pain. The next day When I complained she informed they called the doctor once and they can’t do anything. So after she said «sorry» with a non caring tone. Never once asked about my wife is and if she was ok. Instead just turned and walked away. Then the cashier stepped up I made a comment «this will be the last prescription I fill here». His response was that’s fine and have a nice day. As sarcastic as he could. In my mind the last thing you want is a pharmacist with a I don’t give a sh– attitude. What do you think?

We have been loving our new KS! Wide aisles, huge inventory, friendly deli carrying Boars Head meats, helpful staff, self check-​out on both sides, cheap gas, easy access… there really isn’t a thing we don’t like about it. Even the parking isn’t a complete cluster like nearly every other location.
The best part might be the selection. The availability of specialty sourced products can vary from KS to KS, but this one seems to have nearly every product I’ve seen at any KS. Even if they’re out of something, they’ll call another store to see if they have it!
Long story short, this is what every new King Soopers should be.

What the what?
Ok, it’s a King Soopers, and it’s brand new so everything is super shiny and fresh. But it’s the extras that are going to have you leaving saying, «What the???‘
You can probably shop only here and at Home Depot, and you’ll have almost everything you need. Seriously. King Soopers/​Kroger is apparently getting into the business of selling much more than food. At this new «Marketplace», you’re going to find the following:
— A food court complete with a sushi bar, salad bar, olive bar, cheese vault, their regular deli and plenty of tables inside and out to enjoy your meal. Think Whole Foods.
— A jewelry shop. No joke. Think about the size and pricing of a mall jewelry store.
— A largely stocked pharmacy and health/​beauty area. It’s as if they airlifted half a Walgreens or CVS into the store.
— Clothes. Not as much as a Target would have, but still a lot of clothes for a grocery store.
— Tableware, place settings, glassware, kitchen tools and other items like that. It’s as if BB&B had a small baby inside this store.
[Yes there is a pattern emerging. Kroger is trying to get us to shop here and only here. And Home Depot, because they don’t sell home improvement stuff here. Yet…]
— Somewhere in the neighborhood of 25,000 parking spaces.
— Flowers
— Onsite gas station that takes your points. Love that part.
— A ton of pet supplies, food and whatnot. As if Kroger and Petsmart had a baby.
— Oh, and they sell those weird things grocery stores used to sell like fruit, bread and meat. I don’t think that part of this new plan will work — no one goes to a grocery store for just food anymore.
And I think it’s staffed by about half of Parker’s population. You know Parker-​ites are the best in the world so you’re going to get great, friendly service here. I heard there’s a KSM down in Castle Rock that sells full-​blown patio furniture as well. What the what?
