Pros: Nice Starbucks manager (Dean). Occasionally good sales…read more Cons: Restrooms are filthy. Many expired products on the shelves. Poorly stocked in several departments (e.g., always out of Kroger brand half-n-half). Very few employees to help customers. Several years ago, a general manager - Dave S. - had the place ship-shape and it was a pleasure to shop there. Compared to those days, Kroger is a disgrace.

Apple Pay is super convenient, and it feels so cool to pay with your phone in a traditional supermarket setting. Retro futurism. Besides that, it's always clean when I go in, and they always have what I need. (Granted, a small selection, but still!)

If you advertise you close at 7, stay open until 7. Having an employee stand in the parking lot to…read moretell people they can't come in is false advertising. We needed 1 item that would have take 3 minutes to grab from the shelf and check out. I am not someone who would expect workers to stay after their posted hours, but kicking people out the parking lot 10 minutes ahead of close is unacceptable and is why those of us who want to support local sometimes have a hard time doing so.

As an example, I purchased salted, toasted, pumpkin seeds from a shop in Athens for $12.99 a pound. At the Bulk Food Depot, the same seeds were just $4.88 a pound!! They have local cheeses, grass-fed butter, nuts, seeds, flours, dried fruit, and much more. It's a little out of town (on Radnor Road), but TOTALLY worth the drive!!

Back in the dawn of the millennium, I stumbled upon this haven of provisions while adventuring…read morealong the back roads of Athens. Needless to say, the building caught my eye and I had to venture inside. As any true adventurer would. Within were shelf upon shelf of flour, grain, herbs; you name it. Anything you want to cook with or eventually consume could be found. And the prices were refreshingly reasonable. On this first of many visits, I ended up purchasing a bag of Occident flour, which led to my first foray into accidentally baking some really, REALLY big cookies. And let me tell you--they were grand.

Kindred Market is the kind of grocery store you wish your college town had but not every one of…read morethem does. Fortunately interest in healthy, diverse, organic products with a heavy emphasis on local and sustainable has found a niche here in Athens, home of Ohio University. You can get high quality essentials here and will pay for the local Snowville milk or Shagbark corn chips or Frog Ranch Salsa - all local companies that are building out and selling beyond local. You can also get a crazy selection of mushrooms because a local kid has really perfected the art of growing them here in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains in southeastern Ohio. The beer selection is well tended and leans into the rich ecosystem that is Athens and Ohio brewing (hit Jackie O's, Little Fish, Devil's Kettle, and West End while you pass through). Extras are some cool prepared food and two inside and three or four covered outside tables. Usually three soups to choose from and not just prepared sandwiches and salads but some wicked creative local desserts that I have always admired but not succumbed to. They also feature local artists in pottery, leather, ceramics, hand crafted paper products, candles. Look for the S.M. initials for my neighbor's pottery or M.H. for my colleague's pottery. Lucky to have friends with talent. Finally, if you want the healthy, natural soaps, lotions, bug repellants, vitamins etc, they've got that too. I buy shampoo bars there with minimal packaging and they work great while keeping plastic out of the landfill. Finally, you can get a member number and earn small credits that are always a pleasant surprise to deduct at checkout. Cardboard boxes are available to pack up if you forget your reusable bags.

And why do they make it almost impossible to return brand new stuff? Now you get the 3rd degree! Was bringing back car stuff and got attitude for not having my receipt. It's like wtf?!?

I used to love this place. But ever since the new management took over it's been horrible. There's…read morenothing I hate worse than a store who is not consistent with their hours. If you have a business, you need to have your hours posted and be consistent with that. I understand there are times that things are happen. You might have to close early. That's understandable. Put a sign on the door stating why you're closing early. went again last Sunday at about 730 to 8 o'clock. And they were closed. They're supposed to be open till nine on Sundays. This has happened a couple times to me. It says that they're open until midnight on the weekends. But when I went and tried to order 10 one time they were closed. They don't have the hours posted on the door cause I looked today when I was there so you have to go by what Google says and these are the hours that Google has listed. If this is not they need to post it on Facebook or something. It takes me a good 15 minutes to drive there so me wasting my time driving there only to have them be closed is frustrating. Plus the people aren't nearly as friendly as they used to be there. There is one woman who I really really like. They used to be. I like everybody who worked there they were all super friendly, super outgoing. Now you get people behind the counter where we barely even talk to you. Definitely used to be better with the previous management.

Pretty good! Didn't blow my mind but was a nice spot to get some breakfast while visiting Athens…read more The savory food was okay. Expensive ($16 for toast with cheese and mushrooms) and underwhelming but not bad by any means, and $9 for a bagel with egg and cheese. We got the caprini toast and it didn't have the micro greens as it says on the menu, but no biggie. The bagel with egg and cheese was very bland, and it is a square of scrambled egg, not a fried egg. The baked goods were fantastic! The sticky date cake is crazy good! It weighs a million pounds and is so thick and just the perfect texture. We also got the lemon yogurt cookie which was soft and tangy, 10/10. They have a cool little retail space for various alcohols, non-alcoholic beverages, food, tea etc. I was happy to buy some local loose leaf tea, and there were a ton to choose from! Service was fine. The person who took our order was friendly, the food took a lot longer than expected but we had time to kill so it didn't bother us. I'd go back if I visit Athens again, I'd love to try the soup!

Restaurant quality sushi, just come in the morning!…read more The staff is extremely friendly. The fish is better quality than what you find at other sushi restaurants in the area (it doesn't stink! And yes, I'm very picky on the fish.) The rice tastes perfect. I've only found two sushi restaurants that I reeeaaally enjoy and this is one of them (other one being Akai Hana in Columbus). Not all grocery store sushi is created equal! And a tip: get there at 9:30-10am and if they don't have what you're looking for in the display case at that time, ask the chef for it (they're always happy to help). That will be the freshest sushi in town. Also, everyone who works there is actually local and the sales directly help -them.- Oh! And you need to try a Buckeye roll, they're so good! But I've liked everything I've gotten from this place, so you can't really go wrong (but the Buckeye -is- the best. Haha)
