In short, this place is a lot worse than it used to be. A big reason is that there are no longer public restrooms. While I am sure that maintaining public restrooms are a challenge, people still need to pee. Period. Restrooms need to exist. It's cheap and lazy to eliminate them. Also, for some reason, this store has a poor kombucha selection. This isn't the case at all King Soopers, but it is at this one. I'll pretty much always buy at least one kombucha (usually more) per grocery trip, but here there usually isn't enough. I get it - it's Boulder and I'm sure kombucha is popular. Maybe... order more? I dunno. Anyway, I now go to other locations more often for the aforementioned reasons. It doesn't help that parking here is like the Hunger Games and there aren't enough cart return places. read more

The 30th St King Soopers is a great place to shop! It's centrally located and easy to access. They have a nice large parking lot shared with other strip mall places. The staff is usually friendly and the store is clean. More like 4.5 stars but I honestly prefer the Table Mesa location since this one can feel a little tight and claustrophobic in the aisles sometimes. read more

King Soopers - Grocery Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I have been coming to Kings for years. Most stores are great. The Arapahoe Boulder store is an exception. Dirty, Poorly stocked, outdated, and subpar staff. No one to ask for help. I hope they find a better location to put a store in like S Boulder read more

Was the King Soopers doing the delivery today? An older lady asked to use the restroom and I told her they didn't have a public restroom. She stated she had bladder problem and she really had to go. They still told her no and the lady had an accident. I can't believe a big-time story like this with refusal older Lady the restaurant like what about people with physical problems I don't think that's right. Something needs to be done about this. read more

No public restroom and the staff pushed my son and I today while horseplay around the register with her co worker. So not OK!

It's a grocery store. Aisles are a little cramped, but it seemed to have good selection. But no bathroom for customers? What?! You literally sell food. Mountains of food. It has to go somewhere after it passes through people's bodies. Also I would have thought that violates a building code. This is Boulder not the Wild West. You should have a bathroom in large public facilities. read more

Large supermarket and well stocked. Close to UC campus so there are other businesses nearby, which share the parking lot. Bulk foods available. read more

We stopped at the Boulder King Soopers on 30th Street between DEN and Estes Park while on vacation and had a horrible experience. When we were ready to check out, my husband left to find a restroom. He was wandering around the store for a while because he could only find locked restrooms. In the meantime, I wasn't able to buy a 6pk of beer & bottle of Prosecco we had because my husband had walked away and they needed to see his ID. No problem. I get that. When my husband got back, we moved to the self-check-out to pay for the alcohol. When I said excuse me to ask the self-check-out clerk, Hao, for her assistance in buying the alcohol, she screamed JUST A MINUTE in an extremely nasty manner without even looking at us. When she eventually helped us with the alcohol purchase, we asked her where the restrooms were and she mumbled something while walking away. We had to follow her and ask her two more times before she finally told us who we needed to ask to be let in the restrooms. We were exasperated when we left. We loved our stay in Estes Park and will be back but never again with we give this chain our business. read more

The worst customer service. The worst selection. The worst attitude. They never have anything I need and are always in complete disarray. The staff is rude and apathetic. And they never have rotisserie chickens. Ever. Why do they advertise them? Why is there a display? Sadly this is my closest location and therefore I have to travel if I want a decent shopping experience. read more

King Soopers - Nothing is what's in this photo - Grocery Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

My friends and I are very very Very disappointed in this place, we came here at 8:40 to use the restrooms, thinking "OH YAH, KING SOOPERS WILL DEFINITELY HAVE PUBLIC RESTROOMS". As soon as we walked in, a sign said "sorry for the inconvenience, no public restrooms". We were furious, frozen, and almost about to pee our pants. This experience was very disappointing, will not be returning anytime soon. read more

Came in yesterday to get some cold night time medicine. I had purchased some daytime medicine at the nearby Target but they were out of night time. I went through self check out and the little old Asian lady checked my ID as I rang up the daytime medicine. I was holding the night time medicine I'd bought from Target and as I paid and walked away she pushed me and accused me of "only ringing up one" of them. I told her not to touch me and pointed out the other box was Up & Up, which is Target brand and she followed me out the door yelling at me telling me to not come back. Cool. I won't. read more

No problems with this store, other than the following: they do not allow shoppers to use the restroom. This resulted in a recent bathroom emergency where a shopper had to go and was denied the code to the public bathroom because due to high theft. read more

I just realized that my review of this store is terribly outdated, like 8 years worth. Oh well, update better late than never. Though I more commonly used the Table Mesa Store since the mid 80s, I still used this one occasionally when in the area or when Table Mesa was out of stock on something very specific. But because of the tragedy closing that store in March this spring, for items I still like to buy in town from this company, I have used this 30th St. store more than usual. It has been spruced up a bit since I switched back and though struggling with pandemic supply issues on specific items like all these stores these days, they are trying mightily and appreciating the customers making the switch until Table Mesa can be re-opened later in the year. So their business is a bit unpredictable and we need to make allowances for it. They are trying hard and I believe from what I hear that they are also utilizing employees from the other store than needed to get back to work though I have not personally seen or talked to anyone I recognized form Table Mesa. I will also comment that since the start of the pandemic I had only been using the curbside pickup for these stores and did not know the recently hired staff at the south Boulder Store. But when I switched to this store in the spring, I began going back inside and did recognize a few very long time employees that had been here since at least the 90s. The place is now finally better handling the stock and staffing issues changed by the shift in supply and customer base quite well and today I found all but one item on my list, which was size specific. If I end up needing it sooner rather than later, I will go back and buy the unnecessarily large (for me) size that was in stock. Thank you Kroger and 30th St King Soopers staff for supporting the community that was shattered in March. Consider this review a 4 1/2 but Yelp doesn't fine tune the ratings that specifically. Most places do have room for improvement, even if they can't really control every detail. I find that the stock is better and staffing volume is better suited in the middle of the week rather than on weekends, but being retired, our schedule is finally our own. And they stepped up to serve the community as well as anyone might have under such unexpected and sad circumstances. read more

This King Soopers is very near to work and my colleagues and I have enjoyed many a trek there as an out of office sanctuary. Not to mention a quick lunch run which often turns into a full blown grocery store exploration. One never does know what they will find. Some days there's sushi or Starbucks samples, while on other days there's fresh fruit in the produce section. Now on many a visit I'm honestly surprised about what I uncover (Orange crush muffins, Haunted Ghost Pepper Chips, full bottles of Taco Bell fiery sauce, and Broncos inspired orange french bread etc...). This is in part what makes these visits most exciting. The other exciting piece of exploring King Soopers is the hunt for clearance items. From the freezer to the bakery there are many a deals to be uncovered. Post holiday sales are my favorite. Bottom line is this is a one stop shop for most of your grocery needs (they even have libations: beer and kombucha that is just high enough in alcohol to require a 21+ photo id). From organic fruits/veggies, to fresh baked items this conveniently located store is worth a visit. read more

checked out my groceries today, as I was scanning i asked for help and was objectively told no. unbelievable service today

King Soopers have shut down their bathrooms to the public so forget running errands around town and hoping for a bathroom when you stop to get groceries On top of this they have turned all but one lane into self checkout. However the self checkout does not accommodate multiple reusable bags. So it's great for a few items but what a mess if you have a cart full of groceries. The management is obviously looking at the bottom line and not at customer service read more

I've just about had it with Kroger stores. Again tonight, we went to self check out with some St. Croix sparkling water advertised for $2.99 with a digital coupon (regularly $4.99). The other item was a box of Lara nutrition bars which we weren't able to scan at the sale price. After asking for help from the clerk who wasn't able to get the correct price, she summoned a supervisor who still couldn't figure it out. The digital coupons and sale prices frequently don't ring up correctly. In addition, some of the sale prices are in bold lettering with small letters noting multiple items must be purchased to get the sale price. As a customer, I'm beginning to feel like the in store advertising is at the very least deceptive. These issues aren't just at this location. I live in Portland, Oregon and this happens quite frequently at the Kroger stores there as well. I don't know who has the time to figure out these hocus-pocus practices, especially when the store supervisor can't even do it. I'm seriously considering no longer shopping or limiting my shopping at Kroger stores. Beware to check your purchases very carefully. read more

I was refused an alcohol sale (24yr) for a bottle of wine because I was with my cousin (20yr). Bought wine at the same location last week while shopping with her with no problem? Checkout attendant with pink and blue hair ignored me and called her manager when I asked why she wouldn't sell it to me. Went across the street and bought myself 2 bottles at a small business instead. read more

LOUIS thankyou so much! I always get incredible service when I go to the King Soopers off of 30th St in Boulder. Louis is the store manager and is the most friendly and helpful person at any King Soopers I have been to. It's a busy store, but, they are great at keeping shelves well stocked and organized. I feel totally taken care of when I go. It's nice to have a level of comfort as well at the King Soopers in Boulder. I feel safe. This is very important to me. and Louis you are the BEST!! read more

I visited this Soopers for the first and hopefully last time, just recently. I asked a woman who was loading ice cream into freezer if she knew where I could find unsweetened cacao powder. She told me aisle three. I went to what I thought was aisle 3, though I saw no number and it was blocked by a bunch of boxes. I asked the woman who was opening one of the boxes if this was aisle 3. She said yes with her back to me. I peered around her to see what was in it and it was all supplements. I asked if she worked there, she said yes, without looking up. I explained that I'd been sent to aisle three for the cacao. And she said, "I'm in gardening." Then I moved on to the pharmacy, where the pharmacist didn't greet me and spoke to her co-workers the entire time. Quite an unfriendly and unhelpful bunch. read more

Worst customer service specifically at the Pharmacy. Line is almost always out the door. Pharmacists had the worst attitudes and gave me incorrect information pertaining to pickup time. Save some time and send your prescription literally anywhere else. Bad business. read more

Well stocked super market, but they treat customers like garbage. Under-staffed checkout lanes, and stock-boys blocking isles during peak times. Also, their digital "coupon" scheme is downright fraudulent - only available for specific sizes, for specific purchase methods, and they fail to warn you if you buy something and a digital coupon is NOT applied! Then you have to read your receipt, and your only recourse is to return the item! Also, forget about trying to keep track of this during checkout: most of the checkers are under-trained and/or under-skilled, and they provide NO assistance bagging. So, you end up waiting in ANOTHER line to do the return at customer service. Forget this place, go to Sprouts, Lucky's, or Whole foods. The last one is pricey, but good service. The other two have well-trained checkers who do returns and will check pricing for you. Only go here for staples, and don't expect any sale price to be accurate. read more

Okay, okay, I'm coming around. King Sooper's is starting to appeal to my middle class sensibilities, especially after my introductory tour of the new jewelry store in Boulder: Alfalfa's (well, I think it's priced like a jewelry store) My grandparents used to say "if a little is good, a lot is better." Kudos to whomever came up with the idea of (I'm guessing) shooting a chicken full of hormones to make it huge, so people who think like I do when it comes to delicious things, will buy it, love it and tell their friends! http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/W29sZm-iwWUFcNPZfBZtAQ?select=RLUZfM3-bv9eMiyrC2lKew $7.99 for this "colossal" rotisserie chicken. Works for me!!!! read more

Whoever works in a sushi department should be fired! Bought sushi there today and they're terrible! Spicy combo with no salmon in sight, even though it says on it that it does has a spicy salmon roll. A tiny pinch of ginger what was enough to put on 3 sushi rolls out of a 12 piece combo. Who dumps a seasoning and sriracha sauce on a sushi rolls? I buy sushi from Louisville King soopers all the time but I never had such a horrible experience at Boulder location. Never buying sushi there again and I will be making a complaint to the store manager! read more

Terrible customer service, even on the managerial level. The floral department has awful customer service. When you ask for help the employees treat you like you are a huge inconvenience to them. The staff acts like they not only hate you but also themselves. The people at the deli actively try to avoid eye contact with you so they don't have to help you. What they don't realize is if everything was on the shelf where it was supposed to be then people wouldn't ask for help. This store is ridiculous. I actively try to never come in here and I recommend you do the same. I wish I could rate 0/5 stars. The best part about this place is the Kosher bakery. The donuts are the only reason to come here. Otherwise, I would never step foot in here ever again. read more

The new remodel is one big cluster F! The produce section has no flow people are going every which direction. The bread used to be next to the bakery not now. I spoke to the manager about how the store is now set up. He said he has received an avalanche of complaints! Especially during these difficult COVID times you would think the focus would be on flow and social distancing. The remodel has bunched people up and has no flow. I find myself increasing shopping at Walmart. Jelly, Milk, Peanut butter, mayo, etc. Anything that is mass produced comes in a jar or box is cheaper like sometimes a dollar cheaper per item. I hate Walmart and everything it stands for but I have to do what is best for my family. Plus Walmart has free grocery pick-up. King Soopers still has good produce quality for the money. Whole Pay Check produce is the best but most expensive. Walmart is the least expensive, but quality is not the best. Soopers is stuck in the middle. Your being cannibalized from the top and bottom. If your going to be a bear be a grizzly. read more

My partner and I normally shop at King Soopers, but our experience today has discouraged us from shopping there again. Today, I got raw chicken juice on my hands because one of King Soopers's products was leaking. I attempted to enter the restrooms, which used to be publicly accessible at this location. An employee informed me that the restrooms were no longer accessible to the public, at which point I asked if there was anywhere else that I could wash my hands. The employee silently stared at me for several seconds. Because that employee simply stopped responding while continuing to stare at me, I proceeded to the deli to acquire hand sanitizer. Luckily, the deli workers allowed me to ask the contaminate off my hands; the deli workers are the only reason why I generously rated this location as having three stars. read more

I hate shopping here. The lot is too small so its always a long walk, its dingy and dark inside, and it always had that weird chemical and old food smell.

If you're planning to use their food delivery service, I HIGHLY recommend Against it! They've screwed mine up EVERY TIME - a 100% failure rate! And when you call to complain,they take NO responsibility whatsoever for it! They just give you a number to call for OTHERS - who can barely even Speak English - who don't take responsibility either! Safeway might suck, but I'll never buy anything from King Soopers again - They suck even more!! Didn't think that was even Possible, but they did their damnedest to prove me Wrong - And Did! Good for them! Just goes to show that with enough dedicated disinterest in doing an even mediocre job and by totally ignoring their customers enough, they can accomplish virtually ANYTHING!! read more

Would give no stars if I could. Pharmacy is cold and will leave you on hold for two hours and then tell you scheduling a Covid booster with them isn't allowed so they pass you off to a 800 number with no one you can understand and you still can't get anything scheduled. Shame on you King Soopers. People are sick and all you can do is tell people to call a line that's out of order and to "check around dinner time" to see if any cancellations were made on the online system which doesn't work either. read more

I've shopped at this store for 30 years and it's comfortable. I know many of the staff by name and think they're great. I've bought lots of Kroger products. I've not been fond of the canned Kroger soup, but mostly I appreciate Kroger products as a less expensive alternative. All this said, we bought a Kroger corned beef the other day. No aroma while cooking, which was the first red flag. No flavor while eating, which was the nail In the coffin. We've also bought flavorless steaks that looked good enough to give us hope. Nada. Do not do Kroger meat unless you're broke or have no remaining taste buds. read more
