I have shopped here weekly for about two years now and have a few tips to pass on. For convenience, I would grade an "A." The store carries a basic assortment of products and is decent for many needs. This is common with all stores in Clinton being essentially a culinary desert. If you want anything that is above very basic, you'll need to do some driving to get them. For service, I would grade a "D." Just know going in that customer service is not their thing. Their in-store customer service is on par with WalMart, don't ask them to do anything because you will get attitude. Just being there in their space is enough to irritate them. If you are a white person (especially male), be careful who you go to for check out because there is a particular group of people who have ALWAYS treated me with disdain. They will be rude, will be rough with your groceries, and treat you like you are sub-human. (You will quickly and painfully learn which group to avoid, they are incapable of treating all people like people.) I tried to reach out to Food Lion in general to address the issues, didn't want to go public, but in order to do so they asked for my address and phone number. Definitely not going to happen so here I am. I tend to look at Yelp reviews before checking out a place. read more

Today Food Lion lost a very long time customer, me. I have problems all the time at the store in Clinton, NC. From long lines to improperly handled attempts to speed the lines up by making unfair decisions to open and then close a register to alleviate a long but helped only the last person in line then shut the register down leaving others in line for 10 more minutes. Today I went in and as usual I am trying to shop around the stockers and gatherers. I entered an aisle with 2 men and 2 carts. I asked the taller man in a dress shirt what happened to night stockers ... I think maybe he didn't understand my question due to his nonsense answer about the morning and now it's almost 5. I clarified myself by explaining that there used to be night stockers that come in overnight to restock the shelves and stay out of customers way during the day. I guess this struck some sort of nerve with him because he then proceeded to tell me I should be thankful he's there working and maybe if I don't like it I can just leave thru the door I came in thru. I had intended to ignore him and keep walking to another aisle and I could hear him talking to someone about how I should appreciate the fact he is there working and I should stop complaining. I yelled across the aisle that he should stop talking about his customers like that. He continued to be rude across thew aisle. I was going to let it go but I felt he should be reported so I went back inside to customer service after putting my groceries in my car and found out he is a sometimes manager named Brad. I go in this store multiple time a week and shop and today was the last straw. Unless something happens of your end and reassurances are made that things will be improved, and I get an apology from Brad, I won't be back to food lion. I was told by Brad if I didn't like it to leave, so I have left. read more

I shop at this Food Lion all the time. Witnessed a worker bringing in carts on my last visit. When an elderly lady asked for help putting her groceries in her car he refused and continued to push the carts into the store! read more

We shop her at least one or two times a week. I have had a few unfriendly cashiers, however they did their job well. Some people just don't talk much. Our have a bad day. I under that. I will see them again and at least have smile However these cashiers took care of food like it was glass. You have cashiers that always smile, make small little talk. And never make grocery bags heavy. We have others that always remember us. So over all great hiring. Today I went early. Big mistake. It was not busy, thought I would be in out. Cashiers were even waiting at the front looking for customers to cash out. This girl was so unfriendly. Never said a word to me SHE made me feel uncomfortable for me making do her job. I noticed she made one bag a little to heavy. I asked her to double bag it. I actually saw her roll her eyes. My bad for not wanting to pick up food when a bags break The thing that I really wanted to sure was the lack of compassionate she had for someone in distress. I could not find my wallet; I already felt nervous, her just standing there tapping her fingers like I was doing someone to make her look bad. First, I lost walllet all my money was in it. I was embarrassed. I asked her to put the food aside, I would be right back. I wasn't looking charity. She could have said don t worry we just put your food aside. Just do worry. In stead she pushed it aside, no words. When I found my wallet, I came back a she handed the slip to another man. Your customer service needs work. Especially during the day They also need training bagging groceries, I expect this at Wal-Mart. If this ever happens again, I will just leave. And go to Wal-Mart. The cashier name was Maxwell That's the person she handed it off to read more
