We don't have Ingles in the immediate Charlotte area which is a bummer. I'll chose an Ingles when I'm away from Charlotte because they're usually pretty awesome and this one is no exception. Clean, well stocked, bright and with employees who are friendly and helpful. I placed an order at the deli counter and returned after doing some other shopping. This is good customer service and I'm sure it's more efficient for them, too. Why keep a customer standing around, right? The shelves are leveled, there was no garbage or trash on the floor, and they have a Starbucks at the entrance. Fabulous. [Review 20133 overall - 3482 in North Carolina - 1109 of 2023.] read more

See all

A lovely store with everything you need; however the staff needs to learn how to be attentive to friendly customers. At the Starbucks the girls innocently rang the order wrong. For 2 minutes they were trying to call someone. Never once acknowledged me or told me what was going on. Finally, I asked: "Is there a problem? You've left me here clueless trying to pay." On checkout, Aisle 2 I believe. Two talkative ladies. I said, "Hello." Nothing. Not even a nod. The talk was about a boyfriend. It was pleasant. Cashier handed me receipt. Not even a thank you. Bagger (boyfriend topic) at least said thank you. WOW. I go to staffed aisles on purpose. I support humans and don't get any discounts doing it myself. I should have scanned my own stuff today. Very unpleasant experience. read more

The Ingles Advantage program feels more like a barrier than a benefit. I recently forgot my card during a visit and asked the cashier if there was a temporary option so I wouldn't miss out on the savings. Their response? "You can ask another customer for their card." Really? Instead of putting customers first, Ingles chooses to gatekeep discounts that other stores apply automatically--no hoops, no cards, just good service. At places like Publix, you're treated with respect and your time is valued. Until Ingles prioritizes customer convenience and real savings, I'll be shopping elsewhere. read more

Shout out to the bakery people! They were amazing! Came in with a picture of a cake made years ago to see if they could replicate. Not only did they replicate it, but they made it 100x better! Thank you to Veronica the bakery manager and Elizabeth the cake decorator for this amazing cake! Cannot recommend the Long Shoals Ingles bakery enough!! read more

Nice grocery with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful employees. Aisles are wide and well marked. Produce is fresh and nicely displayed. read more

Great grocery store across the street from the VA Medical Center in Asheville . Wide, clean aisles; good selection of fresh fruits and veggies; beautiful plants for sale; and a delicious hot food bar! We really like the hot, spicy chili from the soup bar. Soft music playing in the background is nice, not overwhelming. Bathrooms can be iffy... read more

Ingles Markets - Delicious hot chili! - Grocery Near Me - Arden, North Carolina

Experienced my first Ingles while visiting a friend in Arden and I was very impressed with the experience. Ingles appears to have everything you could possibly want from a neighborhood supermarket including a Deli, a Starbucks, fresh produce and groceries galore. If I lived in Arden, I would have to imagine that Ingles would be my one stop for all my shopping needs. read more

Alberto cashier 11/20/22 let's ignore the elderly customer and tell the guy that pointed it out to him to mind his damn business as the cashier is texting away Long Shoals Location read more

Just had a lady tell me "good luck you look like you need it" and rolled her eyes at me. Old, gray hair. Please don't tell that to your customers. I will only go here if I have to from now on. So rude. read more

It's a grocery store: * good, fresh salad bar * polite people at the sandwich and deli counters * well-stocked and clean * fair prices * polite check-out people, can be a bit ditzy but so what: nice * kinda weird getting out of the parking lot, to turn left... read more

Ingles Markets - Just your typical double rainbow: awesome! - Grocery Near Me - Arden, North Carolina

I understand that the business can't enforce mask mandates for customers. Why can't they enforce mask mandates for employees? Today 3 / 10 store employees were not wearing their face masks properly. It's been up to half the employees. The woman working at Starbucks was very rude. I reported her to the manager. me "Shouldn't you be wearing your mask?" her (rudely) "Did you come all the way over here to ask me that?" me "No, I'm here to go shopping." her "Then go do your shopping." This is why I'm reluctant to continue shopping at my most favorite grocery store. Although the managers always respond positively when I complain, as does the corporate office, and say they will talk to the employees, they can't or won't ensure customer safety, even in the face of the Covid-19 crisis, despite a county mandate to wear masks indoors. read more

So in this area....there was...back in they day...just a handful of Ingles...one on each point of the compass...East, West, South, and North....and folks kinda started calling them a name based on the location, i.e. "W"ingles......"N"ingles.....get it This would be the "S"ingles and this is a relatively new store. The compass names really don't apply anymore since there are so many of them. The store has "just about" anything you need grocery wise, though they don't get 5 stars because they don't carry certain gluten free beers......which they do at the store just a few miles up the road...curious? Not sure why they are not consistent from store to store, but other than that it's my go to shopping place. read more

I came in there on 12/06/22 with my fiancé (he's Mexican) just wanted to say that before I get started. I was checking out and I have the cashier 100$ and he went and had some girl look at it not sure if she's a manager or what but I won't say her name, but she checked it said it was good then while the guy was walking back she looked over at my husband and then told the guy give me that back let me check again and checked it and then had someone else checked. That would have never happened if It was only me. This girl is very rude and racist and i will be calling and complaining and something better be done because you should not judge people based on there skin it's almost 2023 grow up ! read more

Stopped here to get gas and to get a build-you-own 6 pack of beer. Both worked out well. Ingles by default is a 5-star review from me, and this one has given me no reason whatsoever to deviate from the norm. I'm 100% brand loyal to Publix, but when in Ingles country, I have no qualms about shopping here. read more

The Ingles at this location is beautifully kept and organized. It is open until 11pm which is late for Asheville.

This particular ingles (long shoals) is the best. Always stocked. Great customer service. Lines are never too long and If they are everyone is working hard. It's not the closest to my house but I make the trip when I can because it's the best experience. read more

I really enjoyed shopping at Ingles while on vacation on NC. Keep up the great work along with the variety of the groceries.

Overpriced. Basic goods such as cream are twice the price as Fresh Market. Deli food looks old And stale. Bought a rotisserie chicken that bagger did not put in my cart. Had to drive 7 miles back to Ingles to get the chicken. Poorly trained staff read more

This ingles has EVERYTHING! It's very big with a huge selection. It also has a gas station and Starbucks! I shop frequently here and the staff is always friendly. DEAR INGLES- Keep doing what you are doing! read more

Ingles Markets - At Starbucks counter looking into floral & produce area. - Grocery Near Me - Arden, North Carolina

Great selection of food & supplies. The customer service rep was very nice when we asked for an item behind the counter.

Not a full review. I was trying to leave a "tip". Currently this location is open until 11:00PM weeknights but when I apply the "Open Now" filter its filtered out as if it's closed read more

I really like this Ingles out of the four that are near my area. This Ingles has a lot of daily deals that are on a variety of different food to choose from. Also, like the other Ingles, they also carry a wide selection of different products and brands, so you can see, and taste, the differences between one brand of food to another. When it comes to the organic food, they do carry it but it's a bit less than what I've seen at other Ingles, but if you're going for organic food then you should visit Earth Fare. The staff is mostly high school kids, for the most part, and everyone is very friendly. The manager is nice and courteous as well, so no complaints there. Overall this is a great grocery store. read more

Outstanding selection and freshness. This location continues to expand, offering not just hot bar and subs, but also a wing bar, a salad bar, fresh Chinese and pizza cooked every half hour. It's almost a restaurant at this point. read more

Extremely poor customer service. My 5 years of experience shopping with Ingles has made it fairly clear that their staff are not trained in what products or produce they have. Normally when I ask a question though at least someone who works there will make an attempt to help me or point in the direction of someone else who they think may help me even if in the end they can't. But I was just taken aback today. I asked the checkout person if she knew if they had any of the mandarin oranges as I'd had difficulty lately finding them. She said "I just wouldn't have any idea" and looked at me as if I had just asked her how the standard and poor had closed for the day. I'm sure I looked a little bewildered and I think managed to mumble "what?" And she just appeared annoyed and kept checking my items. I started laughing and said that it was pretty apparent that ingles didn't train their staff. She was pretty unhappy with me and finally instructed me that I could maybe ask a manager. The sad part? I spent $289 at this store today. read more
