Small little grocery store not even an 1⁄8th of the size of most Kroger’s or Publix stores. It is very crowded. It is over stocked and it is a little dark and dingy… but the prices are very good!!! Can’t beat the prices of the meats here, they have a lot of the buy 5 for $ 20 …and some really good cuts of meat. They have a meat cutter on duty so everything is fresh!!! I like that! It is close to my home and easy to get to on my commute home from work, so I stop her fairly regular… the staff is friendly and the patrons of mixed means. so you will be safe here!!! They close about 8pm and have a big parking lot(larger than the store itself)

Occasionally when I have learned I am short one magical item, and have been to The Krog recently, I’ll wander over here. It’s in walking distance, and I would rather not drive into the parking lot since they’ve had an entrance that bottoms out cars for the past 18 years or so, and if you do get in a space in the lot, there will be two or 3 skateboarders in the parking lot, and while I don’t think they’re looking to damage your vehicle I generally feel I could teach them a lot about skateboarding, which means they’re going to fall into your car… The entrance to the place looks like it was originally a loading dock that’s been transformed pre-Americans with Disabilities Act into an entrance. Oh, it has a ramp, but the quality of it — no, it is not there. Which is odd considering they are right next to a retirement community. There’s always armed security there. I only know they’re armed due to one freaking out on a fellow who also happened to be armed but was not in the mindset of robbing the place(businesses — want people to not be allowed to legally carry firearms in your business — post that sign, do not have Barney Fife draw on an off-duty cop with people in the store). I’m told that was remedied, do not know. Prices are higher than your superchain, produce is decent., the floors look like they were last updated in the 80’s and the shelves look to be early 80’s. I don’t think they need to replace the shelves, but perhaps give them a paint job might be in order after all these years. Aisles are narrow, the whole place probably can take 10 shoppers at a time comfortably. They’re at a serious disadvantage size wise, but the location and convenience make it something I would think they would have invested money in. Instead of reshaping their game they seem to keep playing the«got a market, let’s continue marketing». They’ve left a significant deterrent to people pulling into the lot for years, their advertising out front is meh. Not saying they should scrap it and turn it into a giant FroYo establishment, but some paint, a contractor to fix the parking lot entrance, and a re-done main entrance would be incredibly useful for them to invest in.

Lunches are served Monday through Friday, 10 till 1 sharp(those who arrive at 1:01 pm go home hungry!). Business types with beer bellies under pink striped shirts switch their blueteeth off as they file in to mingle with random shoppers, bicyclists and other locals for a filling, indeed, agony-inducing heap of southern cuisine. A cafeterial stainless steel(well-stained with use) steam counter simmers a scheduled rotation of «vegetables» and two or three«meats» every day. Mondays and Wednesdays feature a good, shredded pork«BBQ» which although probably not truly barbecued or smoked on the premises(I haven’t seen the appropriate facilities) is nevertheless juicy and tasty. Thursdays feature a waistline-busting entrée of chicken and stuffing(both part of the«meat») . Food is plopped out of an extra-large cafeteria scoop by a large black woman with a surly attitude towards indecisive newcomers who commit the grievous sin of waiting two or three seconds after her curtly delivered query. Still you have to pity the steadily increasing stream of newcomers as they slowly, painfully deliver, hemming and hawing, their tentative choices, necessarily changed mid-order two or three times, while the lunch lady has long since turned her attention to the next customer, leaving the newcomer high and dry. However, she is not being rude, just efficient. She is unlikely to notice any special requests or mid-order changes that would drop this efficiency rating. Once the scoop is in your styrofoam tray, the die is cast. Alia jacta est. She has the divine presence of Aslan the Lion. You just sense, know and feel that you can’t ask her to change her mind or give you anything special, and that you’d better order extremely quickly and make way for the next customer. Do not ask«is there meat in that?» or, «are those organic sweet potatoes?» or any other of the myriad useless questions which are as likely to be met with a snub or stare as an answer. The stare means that she is waiting for you to come to your senses and order something before she decides to drop the scoop and return to the back to slice deli meats or mix egg salad. She will ask if you want cornbread or roll, and if you want it wrapped. You don’t need it wrapped. Just be sure to grab a utensil packet(and any condiments you need), before leaving the counter. Get your drink from one of the scattered beverage refrigerators in the market and go to check-out line. The meat &2(2 stands for«too much») is 5.50 or so. 2 sides, as indicated, is plenty, but if you don’t need vegetal variety, 1 side will also fill you up.
