Public in Chapin is one of largest area businesses in town. Everyone comes here as the place is…read morealways packed. I use Publix as my pharmacy but other than this I rarely shop here, because the prices are too damn high. The produce section is larger than Food Lion but they just have more produce no additional stock that local don't also have. The hot bar is always hopping with a line, and there is a decent selection of pre-made meals although it could be larger and more variety IMO. I do love anything from the bakery particularly those birthday cakes, Yum. The main reason I come inside is the West Indies section on International Aisle. It is small so don't get your hopes up but have a few essentials like the wafer crackers, cheese in the tin, mackerel, Grace hot sauce. No Tropical Rhythm, spice bun, or Lasco. Now this cheese in tin is $9.89 for the small and I thought it was expensive but I hear it is $13.00 at El Mariachi. There are self checkout lines here I think.

I do think this is a good idea in two parts first being the additional income from ppl just for the bar. The second funnier part is ppl that drink before (or during) shopping tend to be less concerned about prices. The prices here are not low, it is similar to their rival business also in Chapin. There is a hot bar with decent variety, and fresh fish cuts. There is a niche for Lowes for a certain clientele to get in and out w drinks fast as not very crowded.

At first I didn't think they had them cause I didn't see them but then, sitting on the shelf was the last box of two cannolis. I was BEYOND happy!!! I they taste so d**n good!! I wish they made ones that were completely covered in chocolate tho. Like, the entire shell instead of just the plain shell. That would be delicious!! I definitely enjoyed eating these again and would recommend trying them if you haven't already.

Instead of going to my usual markets, I decided to shop at Publix today. The last couple of times,…read moreit was always crowded and more of a hassle to shop, but today it was quite pleasant. This store has great selections to make your grocery shopping experience enjoyable. I also ended up finding items that I haven't seen in some of the other locations I normally shop in, which was a great deal for me! I will say that making this trip was worth it. It was clean, items were on the shelves neatly, and customer service was great. I will make this one of my locations to shop more frequently!

The fresh market has a reputation for being wildly expensive, which isn't entirely undeserved, but…read moreit's not the whole story. They have regular sales and specials that have prices that are hard to beat at any grocery store, and quality that definitely cannot be matched. Their Sunday meal and weekly meal deals, for example get you a really fantastic full family meal for a really good price. Keep an eye out for their great rotating specials on coffee, fish, meat, etc! Where fresh market really stands out is in specialty items and deli/bakery quality. They have lots of dry goods that are hard or impossible to find elsewhere. Their meats are always the highest quality and the place to go if you want a particularly nice cut of something. Don't miss out on their baked goods! We always go here for "adult" birthday cakes since they offer smaller cakes (what adult is eating a full sheet cake for their birthday?) at the highest quality. Their staff are of a quality to match their products and are always so nice and helpful. Overall, Fresh market offers a snazzy shopping experience and product quality that won't disappoint!

It was midafternoon on a Thursday and it was pretty quiet inside other than a group of linesmen enjoying their meal. Parking is abundant outside and there is seating both inside and outside if you're grabbing food and want to stick around. The order process is easy. There is the small window/counter by the kitchen area. The menu is above. I had a simple order: hot dog with ketchup, mustard, and chili. In this part of the country "All the Way" seems to be ketchup, mustard, chili, and onions. I skip the onions. The folks behind the counter were friendly and efficient. I grabbed a Coke Zero from the coolers and went to pay. By the time my credit card had gone through, my dog was ready. I ended up taking it out to the car and finished it in a few bites as I was on the road. It was a good dog. I really liked their chili. Everything went down easy. These are the types of dogs that you can have 3-4 of pretty easily (and enjoy every one!)

As usual for the company, the store was super clean and aisles were very wide making it easy to navigate. It's not very large but you can find great deals on grocery items. They have everything from fresh food to frozen food. There are even special finds sometimes that rotate in. The checkout process was simple. You have a choice of self checkout or checking out with an employee. If you're new to the brand, just keep in mind that it's stripped away a lot of things others grocers use in order to keep cost down. There are less employees, a lot of items are not name brand, shopping carts, you provide your bags, you rent shopping carts.
