SUNDAYMORNINGBAKERYVISIT My husband and I stopped in to grab a bakery treat this morning. I was specifically looking for the sour cream donut which is not available at every store. As a rule, Publix bakeries tend to very small and therefore carry a limited number of treats. The sour cream donut was not available at this location so I opted to just go with the plain glazed donut and a Calypso cookie. Wow, that donut was no featherweight, it ate like a meal! It was very hearty but fell short on the glaze which needed to be doubled in order to balance out the bite. I don’t like it when they are stingy with the glaze because a «glazed» donut is all about that glaze! That awesome Calypso cookie more than made up for the donut. It contained oatmeal, coconut and generously sized pecan pieces. It was delicious, slightly chewy on the inside and crispy along the edges without being too sweet. If this was something that was available at my local store, I would definitely stock up. This bakery is certainly worth a visit! Like I’ve always said, it pays to shop around!

All in all, this is a great Publix. Having a SunTrust inside(with extended hours) is awesome. My only complaint is that employees take their smoke breaks right outside the front door — often. I don’t understand why they do it that way. Other than that, this location is remarkably clean and friendly, and I’m there at least a few times per week.

I would consider this to be a medium-sized Publix, but one of the cleanest and friendliest ones you will find in Cobb County. There is a SunTrust and a Starbucks inside, and the sushi man is a long-standing icon of the store with his excellent skills and kind disposition. There is self check out, but the lines are never bad if you prefer a cashier. Whenever a line is free, the cashier stands in the shopping walkway to alert customers who are ready to check out. You can’t beat their responsiveness. The prices are a tad higher here than at the Kroger across the street for some items, but the produce section is always fresher. My only wish is that they could carry more local nondairy cheeses. I do about 40% of my shopping at this particular Publix

I’m one of those nuts who likes supermarkets. I I passed this trait on to my daughter, who’s happy to accompany me to the store. Before going inside, she and I always estimate the number of people we’ll see, that we know. This Publix is big. It’s always busy. I think it’s one of Publix signature stores. The place is clean, well-stocked, and the staff is exceedingly helpful(except for the guy in the frozen food dept. who often appears to be in a bad mood.) You rarely see a cart out of place in the lot. If you need an item that’s not in stock, talk to customer service. They’ll order it for you. Oh yes — there’s a SunTrust branch in the store! And a wine cooler machine!(I never saw one of those in a supermarket.) And the recipe-lady is always cooking up good things! If you live in the area, you probably already shop here.

You cannot beat their Deli for a very good and affordable lunch. Publix has some of the best sandwiches around and the price cannot be beat. You can customize your sandwich just the way you want it and make it a combo for just a little more. service is usually quick and you’re are stuff waiting to long. They even have a register best the Deli where you can pay and get out of the store extremely quick. There sandwich is so much better than the national franchise stores nearby.

I truly wished that the west coast(San Diego preferably) could have a Publix Supermarket. Unless you’ve been to one, you are truly missing out on a once in a lifetime chance with an outstanding supermarket. Publix reminds me that customer service is still alive and thriving. And with that said, I can kinda understand why they’re not in California. ;) Publix has that«southern hospitality» type of nature to it. That’s nothing you can teach and expect a bunch of Californians to adopt. Not gonna happen. If you live there and think what I have to say is romanticized, then you clearly have never had to deal with west coast supermarkets. Consider yourself really lucky! This particular location has always had friendly, personable staff with lots of knowledge of the entire store itself. They don’t just point you in the direction of where an item is located, they take you to it. The store is always very clean and generally very well stocked. They have great deals and I especially love the penny deals. Yes, you can actually buy certain items for only a penny. Their bakery has the freshest baked goods and they make amazing cakes for all occasions. They have a deli that whips up amazing sandwiches with the best deli meat. Their fish department made me a believer of tilapia when I was only 11-years-old, and I couldn’t stand the sight of fish. Their meat department has a glass window so you get to see actual butchers handling, preparing and packaging the meat(no pink slime here)! The produce department always has the ripest fruit and a great variety of selections. The floral department not only has an amazing selection of flowers, but in the past(not sure if they still do it) they had very skilled workers that knew how to put together some of the most amazing arrangements I’ve ever seen. Any time I go back to Marietta to visit my family; I HAVE to stop in and bask of the glory of Publix. Oh how I wish they would make their way to the west coast.

Just a normal publix. Nothing really stood out here that would make me go on for days. The reason I gave it 5 stars is because it is like any other publix. I go to the one in my area all the time. All the people are friendly and offer help even if you don’t ask. This is what I have come to expect from publix and this is the same service I was provided while I was here. Great Job! Also the shopping area here is great. Lots of great other businesses.

Agree with Jeff for the most part. The deli is great, the salad bar has just the right amount of items and remains super fresh, Sandwiches, burgers soups are all smashing. They are trying in an obvious catchup game with Kroger, This location has added a world food section, baked beans, lucazade, indian spices and sauces to name a few. Butcher section is only beaten by whole foods /fresh market types. Fishmonger sucks… always looks like the rejects in the display case. Starting to improve on cheese section and organic /alt frozen and fresh produce. Good selection of fruit and veg and all the general everyday items. Price… uhmm since when does it cost 2+ dollars to cook up a french loaf? Cheese look at the price of Blue Camembert twice the price of whole foods. If you keep your eye on things prices are inline with quality… Some are just rip offs. It still is my goto place for the majority of the essentials.

This is kind of a model Publix. I’ve been to many in and around this area, and this location is far and away the best I’ve been to. Period. I’m lucky in that it’s the Publix closest to both where I live and where I work, so I can take full advantage of this place. So what do I like about this place? It’s big — among the biggest I’ve been to. Great produce — always walk away with whatever I’m looking for, and it’s usually super-fresh. Great prices — okay, so this is decided more at the corporate level, but I still love the sheer amount of buy 1, get 1 sales they do! Their deli — this to me is the best part of this location. The deli section is HUGE, with list of sandwiches limited only by what their deli meat section contains and your imagination. In addition to being able to make a sandwich from anything they have available, they also have a large selection of ‘pre-set’ sandwiches. My personal favorite is the Rueben, which is actually among the best examples of this sandwich I’ve had. Their french fries are great, as are most of their other prepared foods(my wife is particularly fond of their fried chicken and especially their wide assortment of chicken wings). All in all, my favorite place to shop close to home!
