Kroger

I was here when it was built… not much has changed… its convenient for those who are downtown… hadn’t really been cleaned up or modernized… by far at the bottom of those Kroger’s I choose to visit

We got the first fried chicken of the day. Yummy! Great for lunch in Forsyth Park. 12.99 for 8 pieces (mixed), rolls and 2 sides. Dunno why people don’t like it. Got watermelon (sweet), grapes and salads from the deli. Good for stocking up before hitting the park which is only 2 blocks away

Located close in the downtown area this is by far the worst of all the local Kroger’s. It is however the only grocery store in the area so this is it unless you’re willing to go a few miles south. Because of its location this is Kroger has a diverse group of shoppers so there’s no telling who you’ll run into here. My problem with this store is they don’t seem to maintain its upkeep like their other stores. When you go in it’s like going into someone’s home and seeing that really don’t care about their place they just live there and that’s it. And since they benefit from not having any competition & some of the impoverished and college students who live in the area don’t have transportation they’re allowed to continue to operate like this. In any other area of the city this wouldn’t fly but apparently it’s okay here.

Terrible service, lethargic employees who seem upset if you ask them for help. Once, while waiting for ½ a pound of sliced turkey at the deli — 5 employees were standing around, complaining about wearing new aprons that said ‘Taste of Italy’ on them, and not one of them asked me if I needed anything. After about 10 minutes one of the deli supervisors asked if I had been helped and when I said «no» she continued to talk to the other employees without helping me. Very rude. Unfortunately its the only grocery store downtown so I’m forced to go there more often than I’d like.

An average Kroger for the most part. I was amazed by the large amount of parking in a downtown area. Although close to where we were staying, I’m not sure I would shop here if I knew anywhere else to go. Not a great area (although safe enough as long as you don’t venture past the 2 block bubble), and seemed to be frequented by tourists and scad students.

This is a great little market near the Savannah Historic District. They have a limited selection of items but certainly have many great items. We were very glad to find this grocery store within walking distance of our vacation rental home near Forsyth Park.

the only super market within walking distance to our hotel and open late, which was great when I needed medicine and my husband could go get me it! we had no car so walking distance was a big deal to us obviously… anyway it’s a basic supermarket where we were able to get some juice etc also in our hotel.

Horrible customer service! Very small offerings of products compared to other krogers. Parking is a nightmare!

Staff is helpful, decent craft beer selection. HOWEVER, the customer’s pick craft beer mixed packs are no longer charged as one blanket price by the six pack. They ring up individually. I’m totally willing to drop money on good beer but 3 beers I really wanted to try didn’t scan and came up as not found in their system. Mind you there is an entire row of these beers they were not misplaced. One employee said «oh yeah the beer guys stock their beer wrong all the time.» NOPE those rows were labeled with the correct description and price of that particular kind of beer. They were not misplaced or stocked wrong. MGMT, get It together! This or a hassle for your customers and your staff! Not buying beer here ever again. I’ll take my business down the road.

This Kroger is huge and clean with a great selection of products. Each dept. has a huge variance of product options. Every specialty cheese you can think of, they have it. Very nice selection of organic items and gluten-​free items. Huge frozen foods area. The produce section is well maintained and items are always fresh. The sushi is made fresh onsite and you can watch them make it. There is a Starbucks inside. Point! Lol. The only complaint I have is that the Express cashiers disappear alot.

I am extremely disappointed in this grocery store. I used to shop here and though «meh, it sucks but its close by. Its not like it can get any worse» Oh, but it did. Within the last year I have watched it steadily decline.
1. It is dirty and disgusting
2. I NEVER find what I need anymore. Theres constantly empty shelves and missing product.
3. The produce is absolutely HORRIBLE. Disgusting. Almost every fruit I have gotten from here has been basically inedible.
4. I have had multiple cashiers be very rude to me on several occasions.
I attribute this steady decline to the opening of their new Kroger near the mall. They have obviously put all of their time and money into the new one and have forgotten about this one. Bad call, Kroger.
On a positive note– their prices are unbeatable. I have tried them all and you just cannot get cheaper groceries even at Walmart. The location of this particular Kroger is wonderful. Near the park and in the heart of downtown. They have also recently added an organic section. If they ever decide to revamp this store I will try to shop there again.
Needless to say, I have been traveling the few extra miles to go to Publix, The New Kroger, or Whole Foods despite the extra gas, money, and time. For me it is just literally that bad. And when you have shopped at any of these other grocery stores it is hard to go back to the «Crack Kroger». I’m not even a grocery snob. I just hate it.

I like this super market they have a great selection of groceries with some good discounts

Very nice clean store to shop in. They have great parking across the street from the building and bike parking up front. They also have redbox and starbucks inside which is always a plus.

Not as nice as some of the other Krogers I have visited, but this place will get the job done if you want less expensive things and do not want to visit a specialty store. We stopped in for a wine and cheese night, and found a great selection of Boars Head meats to accompany. We went to the meat counter and after repeatedly telling the deli person ¼ pound of salami, she still gave, and charged us for ½ pound. She was also talking to her friend.
The cashier was fantastic and super nice, so I wouldn’t judge all personnel by the deli employee. Good selection of items, at prices fit for the area and better than a lot of the smaller stores around town.

Maybe it’s the fact I live in N Mpls but this is really not that bad. It is pretty nice inside. Only complaint, they didn’t give me the sale price on my wine and I noticed too late it was an extra $ 5. We even got some deli stuff for a cheap lunch by the pool one day.

Known as the «Crack Kroger» by locals, this place is near and dear to my heart. Yeah, it’s kinda in the ghetto. (which we like to hide from the tourists, btw) but this Kroger is awesome.
They redid it right before I moved and gurrrrl, it is fancy now.
Yeah, there are bums outside and yeah you’ll see lots of young kids with pink/​purple/​green hair; tons of tattoos, or lots of wanna be hippies with dreads… but don’t worry those are just the SCAD students (huge art college in town). They’re harmless.
The store has a huge deli, bakery, wine/​beer department, seafood department, etc.
but here is the reason why this place is my favorite. THE FRIED CHICKEN!!! This is a hidden secret in Savannah. The best chicken is here. Do NOT eat at that ‘famous lady’s restaurant’ (I’m friends with her and her family so I can’t say the name)… She isn’t cooking her own food anymore and it’s gross.
GO HERE FOR FRIED CHICKEN.
The deli makes fresh fried chicken all day and it is divine. I don’t know what they do to it, but it’s amazing. We get it for everything: days out on the boat, the beach, parties, etc.
Crack Kroger fried chicken… just do it.

This Kroger is like the great equalizer. From rich scad kids to people just trying to make ends meet, everyone has to shop there because it’s the only grocery store downtown. I give it 4 stars for the great prices and relatively friendly employees. Also, they’ve made a lot of improvements since I moved here like adding a Starbucks and expanding their organic and whole foods section. It’s just really crowded because, well, see above everyone shops there.

This is the only grocery store downtown which is convenient if you’re on bike. They’ve got everything you’d expect. Alcohol, fresh meat, frozen food, fruits, vegs, bakery and more. It’s a lot cheaper if you have a Kroger card so is recommend getting one. They also have parking so that’s great. But if you’re driving think about Publix or something instead.
The atmosphere is «meh» and the staff is just «alright». But it gets the job done.

I’ve gone back and forth about whether to give this store three stars or four stars. Basically, it’s a pretty good supermarket (WAY better than the downtown supermarkets I had to deal with living in other cities).
Pros:
– the store is generally clean and attractive
– there is some very nice produce
– they have a good selection of healthy and organic products
– they have good-​quality meat and fish
– they have a nice selection of wine and beer
– the pharmacists are friendly and helpful
Cons:
– there is no salad bar
– it can be difficult to find sufficiently ripe tomatoes and bananas
– the aisles are sometimes crowded with crates for restocking
– the clientele can be extremely annoying (which isn’t Kroger’s fault)
– sorry, but I HATE scanning and bagging groceries myself
All things considered, it’s a good supermarket with good prices.

Produce is fresh. They sell most everything that you need and super convenient for us downtowners. The service is not that great. I was trying to swipe my card but one of the cashiers was blocking me while chatting it up with another employee. I asked her politely twice to move. She then told me that she, «Herd me da first time». I winced and promptly went home and got on Unilocal.I probably should have gone to the floor manager, but whatever, every one has a bad day from time to time.
If I need a really good piece of meat or fish, I’ll go to Publix, but Kroger has some really good deals and is very close.
