Inside. Rotating plastic grocery bag holder/dispenser.

This Kroger is officially known as the Clairmont Kroger. It sits on both Clairmont Road and Buford Highway in the Skye Hill shopping plaza. This is an old Kroger. Grocery shopping here was like taking a step back in time. The inside of the store needs some updating. However, part of me was really into the old signage, paneling, trim, and flooring. It made our shopping experience fun because of the "retroness" of it all. Just take a look at my pictures. It wouldn't surprise me if this Kroger renovates soon or is renovated by the time you read this. Kroger stores in Atlanta proper have been renovating in recent years such as my neighborhood Kroger on Howell Mill Road: https://www.yelp.com/biz/kroger-atlanta-6. Kroger stores have always been fine to me. While not great, they're usually decently stocked with most everything you need/the essentials at good or reasonable prices. Generally, the produce sections could be better in terms of both selection and quality, but still, they're not bad. This Clairmont-BuHi location is no exception. Be sure to sign up for a free Kroger Plus Card to get discounts. I stopped carrying a physical card years ago and now just scan the bar code on my Kroger app at checkout. We picked up a bunch of groceries and personal care products here. Angel hair pasta, baguettes, mangoes, sweet potato, yogurt, tomato paste, paprika, mushrooms, blueberries, avocadoes, tomatoes, chickpeas, salad dressing, handsoap, body soap, and lotion. They had some of my favorite brands like Dial, Lever 2000, and Lubriderm. The former two were on sale. A small bottle of Dial handsoap was only a buck and a bottle of Lubriderm Intense Skin Repair lotion was $7.99. They carried some of our favorite food brands too like BRIANNAS dressing and Liberte yogurt (so good). A bottle of dressing was $3.39 and yogurt was $1.79 each. I would consider those "higher-end" food products. Our cashier Dana R was nice. I'd come back.

I ask the clark at the deli in Krogers 3855 Buford hwy NE Atlanta for a 8 piece of baked chicken. She explained she couldn't sell the freshly cooked chicken. I could only by the chicken that was setting out for 3 hours. She could only sell the freshly cooked chicken in a meal. I looked at the real dried out potatoes and equally totally dried out mac and cheese. I could believe she was serious. I bought the meal to get the freshly cooked chicken. I paid $5.50 I realized I didn't get fork, spoon or a napkin. I went back and asked she said they only had a fork and nothing else. The services was horrible without out question horrible. The food was Awful. Sad

With its location at the corner of Clairmont and Buford, walking around this Kroger is like riding the It's a Small World ride, but without the annoying song. In fact, the last time I was there, Kool and the Gang's Hollywood Swinging' was playing, which is fine by me. Speaking of Kool and the Gang, I've actually visited this Kroger (which is many miles from my home) more times than I've been to Disco Kroger. This probably tells you more about the amount of time I spend of off Buford Highway as opposed to the, um, more "refined" areas of town. I usually stop by here after shopping some bizarre Asian mart to buy a an obscure ingredient like gillyweed or mandrake root and then realized I was out of something like Tide or Diet Coke. This Kroger used to have a pretty impressive selection of obscure Asian and Latin ingredients itself, but on my last visit, it appeared to have been significantly whitewashed. Sigh. I guess they realized they couldn't compete with the Asiamart, so they don't even bother. But even the many immigrants on Buford need stuff like Tide and Diet Coke, and you'll always find plenty of them here (immigrants, not Diet Coke. Well, Diet Coke too.) So with that, I dub this Kroger, "Kro-Migra." Viva la KroMigra!

This is the Store Manager Arron in the middle of apologizing for the long wait. GOOD JOB SIR, I appreciated it.

Today, I went to use Kroger's money services/customer service center. The line was extremely long as usual, but that's to be expected during the beginning of any month. Any who, the manager (Arron) noticed the ridiculously long line and addressed everyone by apologizing for the wait. He also decided to decrease the amount of people by personally handling returns and other non-money services related task. Though the issue had NOTHING to do with his leadership, Arron still attempted to resolve it. The money services center was fully staffed and the employees were working as fast as they could. Honestly, the issue was with the people who stood in line for 20mins and decided to fill out all of their paper work when they got up to the window, (Insert MAJOR eye roll). I respect him for stepping up and exemplifying great leadership tactics. Side note: The parking lots design is horrible! This might seem like a minor issue. Just wait until you spend 20 mins playing parking lot wars with the other shoppers, you will understand my pain

I seem to forget to check out Buford Farmers Market on a regular basis when I'm looking for Asian…read morefoods. I went this past week because I was looking for 2 specific items that I wasn't able to find at 2 other large Asian markets. Someone had suggested this Market because of the extensive ethnic choices. It has Asian (Korean, Chinese, Thai, Japanese, Filipino), European, South American, Hispanic and American items. There are sections that have premade Asian meals, fresh seafood, extensive fruits and vegetables, frozen foods, pantry staples, bakery items, almost anything you might want. It's a large market and you could spend hours going up and down the aisles exploring. I was surprised to find they even had a favorite pop that I only thought I could get in Michigan. Now I know that I can go here and get it, without having to have it ordered online. It can get busy on the weekends when everyone is doing their weekly shopping, but I went later in the day and was able to find parking and not bump into people or long lines.

I have lived near Buford Highway Farmers Market for 28 years. I have visited at least two to three…read moretimes a week. BHFM pretty much had its "Glory Years" 10 or 15 years ago. It has slowly gone downhill since then. I have bought their quart container of squeezed pink grapefruit juice many times, it used to be very reasonable. For the past couple of months the price has risen to $13.99 a quart !!! Whole Foods has the same thing for $8.99. Other sources are no where near $13.99. That's price gouging. All the daily house hold products are also much higher than Target, Walmart, Kroger, Publix. I cannot believe people pay the prices. Unless they are on special, berry's and fruit's are more expensive than Publix or Kroger and they look like they are second or third tier quality. The same for the vegetables, some literally still have dirt on them and are definitely poor quality. I bought sushi the other day at the counter in the back, for the price it was great. I decided to buy extra Wasabi, there were three kinds on the counter. None had a price, not on the container, not on the shelf. I asked the person behind the counter what were the prices, they said they didn't know, I would have to carry the wasabi literally diagonally across the store and get a price. The person couldn't call and ask ?!?! How does an employee not notice these items are not priced !?!? I have always loved the cafeteria, their entrees are delicious. Now some of the trays have nothing in them and some have been sitting in the trays and have a skim on the top because they haven't even stirred them up obviously for hours. 40% off after 4;30pm, great deal, but half or more of the food is gone, by 5pm they have pretty much closed up. The Mex part is closed at 4:30pm. So sad, a great resource, just about ruined. They also used to have cooking classes, which were great. They haven't had a class in years. Today I go in and by 4 items, the lines are long, so I took it to the quick checkout near the entrance. A person in front of me had over 10 items, each bag was like 5 pounds of vegetables each. He was not an employee, be paid cash. I asked the cashier so the line is no longer 10 items or less? She shrugged her shoulders !!! There used to be 10 items or less registers, at least two. Both of those have been long gone. It looks like BHFM is adding self checkout, the registers are installed and have sat there 2 years !?!? Still not open. With skyrocketing grocery prices and the competition in the area BHFM management needs to wake up. The outside isn't looking its best either. I hate to write this, but come on BHFM !!! Yes, there are some good deals, especially specials, but they are no where near the quality / price of Whole Foods or Dekalb Farmers Market. The same for H MART, I want competitive pricing and quality products, as a local, the "novelty" effect means nothing to me.

Midtown Publix... if you are looking for really good fried chicken - here is the place to go. I'm…read morenot sure why tenders & wings aren't on the same level here but classic fried chicken is up there with chain restaurants. I just tried their sweet chili rotisserie chicken- it's a home run! Moist! Fabulous flavor! I only opened it to try it and ended up eating a dinner portion. Craving more. Subs always has a line and that says a lot too. As to basic shopping- I wish their produce section was larger but that's really looking for something to say negative. Butchered products cut there have a very short sales by date. Not because of poor quality but rather opposite. Most stores let meat about a week. Publix only allowed 2-3 days tops. Freshness matters. Some people say Publix is more expensive than that K store. However, if you learn to bogo and value quality over money- you will never be disappointed. I've priced the same weekly purchase on same day and came home spending the same but larger quantities from Publix. Only downside to this location is pharmacy. They simply seem to always be behind;however, other location within 2 miles is always quick, polite, & rarely a line.

It's an ok spot if you're looking for an AC place to escape the heat. There's a number of vendors…read moreinside for food and merchandise... all seemed decent at slightly higher prices. Good place to roam for a bit, but really nothing special or too exciting.
