One note to management: the bathrooms really need more attention. They should be checked and cleaned much more frequently--honestly, I think they should be looked at at least every hour. Keeping the bathrooms clean makes such a difference in the overall shopping experience. Overall, a productive trip and we got everything we needed to get her ready for another year at college! I had to laugh at some of the displays- you know you're in a college town when you see things like this!

We were very used to BJs Wholesale before we moved here. Sam's Club is basically the same, but…read moresince it is the only wholesale club in Gainesville, it's also usually crowded, so we almost always use their curbside service rather than going in. Saying that, not sure if it is representative of the current times, but they have strangely run out of some staples for days on end (fresh chicken breast/tenderloins, some milk, heavy cream, salads) which seems odd. To be fair, they are in stock about 85-90% of the time, but when they aren't they're usually not available for over a week. The curbside service is usually good, but have had times where not everything was included in my order and didn't notice until I got home. Also, a recent bad experience where rotisserie chicken didn't come out with my other items (including frozen/refrigerated) and was told they're going to have them in 10 minutes. 25 minutes later, no chicken, and the guy who was handling my curbside order went on break! I had to bring all my frozen/refrigerated items inside to customer service to return them as they were just sitting in my car as we waited for the chicken to come out. They should have never brought out my order if it was not complete. If you use their app and go inside, unfortunately the app does NOT tell you were things are located. I wish they had this capability, but admittedly they move stuff around A LOT while some stuff is consistently located, not everything is. Usually the folks inside can direct you to where things should be, but there's never a guarantee. Pro tips for curbside service: - Make sure you indicate you are "on your way" to the store before you get there. This will help get you order to your car faster once you do arrive. - Check your order before they leave to make sure you got everything! - Do not let them bring out a partial order and tell you they'll be back with the rest. Make sure they give you everything at once. Pro tips for shopping in the store: - Use Scan & Go in the app to scan and pay for all your items. It's MUCH faster than if you wait in line to pay.

I highly recommend coming to this store, not only for the wonderful products, but for the great customer service! The workers here actually care about their clients! The store is clean also!

Nothing better than skipping the line. It's always good to walk up and down the aisles, because they always have something on clearance, or BOGO, or better. Keep your eyes open!! Also, take your time and really look at their condiment and cheese sections. Publix has some really interesting culinary choices. You just have to look for them.

I was in Gainesville and wanted to make sure my son had enough food so we stopped into this Publix…read more I'm not a fan of Publix and don't normally shop there, but it was close so I had no choice. Everyone who says that they pay more in groceries and they can't understand why, my question is why would you even consider shopping at a Publix? The prices were so unbelievably extreme I thought about starting a class on how to help people on where to shop for quality food at reasonable prices. We also needed to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy. As we stood online, it was a 20 minute wait because there was only one person behind the counter not only did we have to wait but it also was seven dollars more than what I pay for the same prescription in Boca Raton.

They became the leading supermarket by putting a strong emphasis on customer service. They bring the adage "the customer is always right" to new levels. Add to this fantastic BOGO (buy one, get one free) deals and that alone makes for a winning combination. Add to this the iconic subs that they make in their deli (affectionately known as Pub Subs) and they become virtually unbeatable. These subs are pretty amazing. I usually go with their Italian sub or their roast beef. Both are excellent and I guess anything you would order at their deli counter would be a winner. I must say that I would definitely recommend this particular location or any Publix, for that matter. I choose to give it five stars for their steps in making sure a visit to a Publix is always a wonderful experience.
