Stopped in here to pick up dinner and breakfast. This is the closest Publix to my hotel that has free and easy parking. I had about an hour and a half remaining on my rental car before I had to turn it in so parking was key. This location didn't have as many gluten free options as the one downtown but the parking is easier. Debating getting the burgers but settled on frozen mussels (deleted photo before realizing I hadn't uploaded it yet ). The mussels were surprisingly good for frozen grocery store mussels - would get them again. Especially when they are buy 1, get 1. That's one thing I LOVE about Publix: all the BOGO deals. I ended up buying more than I intended. Limited interaction with staff. Butcher did come out to see if I wanted help. Probably because I was spending a lot of time looking at the. Burgers and walking back and forth. Store seems smaller and more compact compared to other Publix. But same atmosphere. Would shop here again. read more

I stopped in for a quick lunch deli pick up order and was happy that it really was quick. Parking in the lot is free considering it is in a business district and a busy area. Inside the store it was very busy but everything moved quickly from the deli to the cash register which I used self checkout. Good experience and even the parking lot was clean and easy to get in and out of. read more

Nothing beats a Publix deli sandwich. I swear when I was in town I went here at least 2x a week. The jerk turkey club with vhipotle gouda cheese, bacon and deli dressing are a match made in taste bud heaven. I'm a Texas girl so HEB has my heart but I do appreciate a Publix trip! The store is so well laid out and organized it just makes your overall shopping experience enjoyable. read more

i have shopped publix for 50years ...i am so pisswd everybtime i walk in the store to discover bogos, that are NOT BOGOS...just because you stick a bogo sign on an item that's been marked up 2x , doesn't make it a bogo--it makes it a regular priced item that lured you in fraudulently don't insult my intelligence nor my layout with that BS.. i reluctantly, have changed grocers now and go to aldi and am happy with their pricing -- ridiculous ...:mayo does jot cost $10 a jar mozzarella cheese doesn't cost $10 a roll either and the lists go on read more

So I stopped by this location because I was in the area and my daughter needed to use the bathroom. En route I noticed a few homeless people, it's near downtown so that wasn't shocking to me. Upon entering the store I noticed a police officer by the door. Ok, kind of weird but I chucked it up to the "homeless problem". Little did I know that I would be seeing more of this same police officer throughout my shopping experience. The finally straw for me was the officer conveniently came behind the cashier that was checking me out. I'm assuming to make sure I'm paying for my groceries?? Wow! He immediately went back to his post by the door once I finished checking out. Shopping was definitely not a pleasure. I wasn't going to say anything but I have my 4 year old daughter with me and if I don't speak up now who knows what will happen once she's an adult and gets the same unsolicited, biased treatment. Enough is enough! read more

I got a sub sand and ordered it online, I go home to go eat my sandwich and there are multiple teams missing from my sandwich. This had happened to me on multiple occasions where they have forgotten ingredients for it. I AM NOT HAPPY!. read more

Satyeda and brenda are great! Thank you for your help! They helped me during Gasparilla and we're so great, the food is incredible and please ask for them for subs read more

After multiple attempts to inform customer service and managers I am done with this store. Specifically, the deli. After about the 5th time my chicken tender sub I preordered was placed in the cold rack I finally spoke with customer service. The problem persisted so I spoke with a manager. Now I go to pick up a preordered cold sub and it is sitting in the hot rack. It's a very simple concept as well as food safety. If they aren't following these guidelines what else are they not doing properly. I refuse to use this store again for any shopping. Side note I work within walking distance of this Publix and originally bought my lunch here I don't have time on my break to keep having my sandwich remade by people who hate what they do. read more

Shoutout to Chris for always making the best Philly cheese pubs; and for really taking the time to make it right!

I have had too many recurring issues with the deli sandwiches. I order on line, show up at the time they tell me or later, and the Sandwich isn't ready. They actually begin making the sandwich when I arrive and tell them I am there. One time I can understand. Now it's becoming routine. I spoke to the manager Miguel about it. Hopefully they can correct this problem. read more

Nice, clean, descent supermarket with competitive prices. Staff are really nice and helpful..

I love Publix. With that said, this location let me down. I ordered a Turkey wrap at 7:22 from the deli online for 7:55 pickup. Just had to walk out because they were 30 min late and were just ignoring my ticket...Either fix the estimated pick up time or get better organized. Takes way to long for some of these subs. The deli associate was kind and helpful (checking on my wrap) but for some reason they weren't making it. Told them to cancel it, which wasn't a problem because they had t even started it. Never getting a sun here again. read more

I shop at Publix over Whole Foods,sprouts, etc because they are known for service. I placed an order on Publix Instacart for pickup. An item was refunded without me picking something else. I get to the store and let them know I placed a second order since an item was refunded without me selecting a new item. Guy says he doesn't know he was only given the bags he had. I call the store and tell them what happened and asked if my second order (1 item) could be brought out so I don't have to make a second trip. I was told I had to call Instacart. I let employee know my dog was in the car or else I would run in and ran the item. She told me again to call Instacart. Normally Publix has great service. I know pick up is through Instacart but maybe try to problem solve for customers. I now have to take my dog home just to drive back for 1 item. read more

I could walk through my old Publix in South Florida while wearing a blindfold and still find whatever it is I needed. I naively believed all Publix stores were great, aside from one other Publix location I hated (and just chalked it up to it being an anomaly). I've now learned that's not the case, because this place is truly terrible. As others have mentioned, this store is small -- understandable, given its downtown location. Outside of a hurricane or the day before Thanksgiving, I've never had to fight for a parking spot at a grocery store until coming here. I've already left this store without an ingredient I needed because they didn't have it. The Publix on Dale Mabry is farther away from home, but I already know I'm more often going to go there instead of here (at least until the new Publix by my place opens). I ended up there anyway to get something this location didn't have, so why waste my time here at this point? read more

The Deli and Meats staff are the least personable or professional of any Publix. I was the only one waiting to get some meat and cheese. It took 10 minutes for any of the 6-8 staff members to acknowledge my presence. Then it took another 10 minutes for the woman to slice my half lb of deli meat. She then handed me thickly cut turkey instead of thinly cut ham. Then she told me that's what I requested when I very clearly did not. She huffed and puffed looking for the ham I wanted. Then she told me what I wanted was out of stock when it was clearly in the case. Then she proceeded to cut me thick slices of ham when I specifically said thin. 30 minutes at the meats counter for a half lb of meat. a while another staff member was going off on a manager for asking him to do something. read more

Deli takeout foods So the sandwiches are ok when you are rushed. The ones in the cooler by the door. But wash your hands. You will have to undo it and unwrap the rolled up lump of meat in the middle of the sandwich. Or maybe it's on one side. Then replace it in s layer fashion to fill the bun and put it all back together. Unless you want to get several bites of just plain bread. She Oh. Never go to the deli noonish or 5ish for custom sandwich orders. They never have enough people behind the counter for the long lines (20 minutes+) and incorrect orders are common (like wrong meat or cheese) June. Lowering my rating. So many months later I hardly ever buy sandwiches there anymore. But today I bought their most expensive brand. Poor quality control is aggravating. Got home and it had all of a HALF slice of cheese as pictured. Also the bread was unevenly sliced with one side being almost paper thin and the other thick and not very fresh tasting. Of course the thin side happened to be where I added condiments. Squish. read more

Publix - Rolled up lump of beef on one side of bun. - Grocery Near Me - Tampa, Florida

Good store with everything we needed for our trip! location location location was great too! Publix never fails us!

Epic fail. Ordered one and a half hours prior to requested delivery chicken wings from the deli. There's some kind of a disconnect between the ordering system in the deli because I watched my shopper shop for multiple orders for that hour and a half when he went to the deli, there were no chicken wings. Why? Seems to me an hour and a half is plenty of time to fry one box of naked chicken wings. I don't know where the disconnect is, but it seems to be typical across the chain because this is a Tampa store I was dealing with and the same thing happens with the Auburndale store, the system could work so smoothly but for some reason it's not. read more

I prefer Publix over Winn Dixie or Fresh Market. The stores are were well laid out, easy to navigate and find almost anything you need. The stores are always busy and the shelves are better stocked around the late evening from 8pm to close. Particularly the produce section. It is a headache to go through that picked over section at any other time of day. The bakery offers a wonderful selection of baked goodies. I recently had one of the best cherry danishes. It was unbelievably good. I like how friendly the cashiers and other employees are every time I shop here. The only con about Publix is it's parking lot. It is an absolute ZOO, crazy crowded and not easy to get in and out. read more

30 year customer I love you guys but you have to w force policies. Just stood behind someone with 35 items in self check 10 or less. That area as you know is not set up to accommodate that much product. This slows the process down more. Please enforce Your policy. read more

Publix - Grocery Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I am beyond disappointed. Publix has always been my go-to supermarket. I always get my groceries, grab lunch (deli) and order my cakes from there. Well, I used to anyway. No way I will continue to do so after my past few experiences. Yesterday's trip to Publix was awful. Let's start with the deli. Why start breaking things down if you don't close for another 2 hours? Now you have two people trying to make sandwiches with only one side of the sandwich prep there to use. Now you have a mess, one person leaning over the other trying to get to the lettuce and other things, etc. Makes no sense. Now let's talk about all of the trash you are still trying to sell. Last time I went to Publix I bought bread and didn't realize until the next morning that it was moldy. Yesterday I made sure to check the expiration dates and almost half of what was on the shelf was expired by more than a week. Even the veggies and fruits were moldy and over ripe. Check the expiration dates and take expired products off the shelf Publix! What's even more disappointing? I went to Trader Joe's after to finish my shopping because Publix didn't have everything I need and everything there was a third of the price of what it was at Publix (i.e green pepper at Publix was $3 and it was only $1 at Trader Joe's). read more

Why 5 stars? Because this is the best grocery store ever invented. --- --- --- Another place I can't believe I never reviewed. When I lived in Ybor, Channelside, and then Ybor again - this was my Publix, and I miss it severely. Publix is awesome, we all know that. But this Publix has everything you could ever want. And it's absolutely home to the most attractive people in Tampa. Forget MacDinton's or Tribeca... if I were a modeling agent, I would sit outside at the picnic tables eating sushi, and passing out my business card. I just stopped in here the other night, and nothing has changed. Beautiful people everywhere buying food... which makes for non-boring grocery shopping. Seriously, modeling agencies of TB - you're stupid not to do this. PS - I once met the Acuvue twins in here. Biggest celebrity encounter ever, don't kid yourself if you think that's not a big deal. Astigmatism! read more

The parking lot is small because of the location. The store is small so it doesn't have a full selection. I've gone for items and they didn't have them. They do have lots of items and food that other publixes don't, such as local and organic goods. Overall, it is usually a great publix experience. I have had a one time where an employee was rude or condescending. The cashier was not pleased with the 4 coupons I had. I guess they usually don't deal with coupons because this publix is in an affluent area. read more

Again, another great Publix experience. Ordered items from the deli thru the app, and right when I got there everything was ready. The subs we got were made perfectly and all the other deli items were exactly as asked. The app allows for comments, so if you want something particular that isn't on the app you can get it. They had almost all the lanes open for check out with practically no wait in line. read more

Publix - Grocery Near Me - Tampa, Florida

This is my favorite Publix, largely because of its comparatively reasonable size and also because it's in my neighborhood and if I feel like a nice walk I can wander over here and grab a few things. It's not close enough to walk to for emergency groceries (read: oh no, I'm halfway through making dinner and I just realized I don't have any eggs!), but that's what my car is for. As others have said, the parking lot can be a terrible horrible no good very bad time, especially on weekend mornings or weekday early evenings, but if you come here a lot you can learn to avoid the insane times or at least know where else you can park. I've had just as much trouble parking at the larger stores I've frequented, so it doesn't concern me that much. But once you're inside, it's wonderful. It's a smaller footprint, so when you forget something from the bakery on one end and you're in the frozen section on the other it doesn't feel like a hassle to go back. They carry everything I need and many things I want as soon as I see them, and in fact there's some stuff I can only find at this Publix, like specific frozen dinners and bakery items. The only thing I sometimes have trouble finding is my favorite sandwich bread, which even fully in stock usually only has three or four loaves hanging around, but it's just bread and they have plenty of other options. Things I love about Publix in general over certain other competitors: BOGO deals, the Deli sandwiches and potato balls, and the amazing selection of single-bottle beer (stored at room temp so I don't have to drink it right away!). I'll go elsewhere if I have to, but Publix is definitely my store. read more

I've gone to this store a number of times and most of the store is ok. This review is for the multiple times I've visited the deli counter(not sub station). The KIDS working there could care less that you are a customer and I've never been given a sample of the meats cut or asked how thick of a slice I wanted. The whole area is dirty and not well kept, I expect this from Winn Dixie but not from a Publix! read more

Ugh, this Publix is one of the worst ones I've been to. It's way too small and cluttered. There are literally boxes everywhere which is not a good look for such a great chain like Publix. I went recently and they were totally out of strawberries, blueberries and cantaloupe. What kind of grocery store doesn't carry these things? I'll be shopping at the Greenwise Publix instead of going here. read more

I'm from Illinois where we aren't fortunate enough to have Publix, so whenever I visit Florida, I enjoy shopping at whatever Publix is nearby. Until now. The store itself, albeit small, seems clean and well stocked with a nice variety of products (roasted beef lung tips - really?). My disappointment is in the staff. Every worker I encountered in three visits to this store projected an attitude of "Ugh. I hate working here almost as much as I hate my life". I'm not asking for hugs and high fives, but grimaces and eye rolling from cashiers tells me you really have no concept of creating a welcoming atmosphere that wants to generate repeat customers. If I had a car here, I'd drive elsewhere despite the convenience of this location. read more

You would have to be in the time of hurricane irma to understand this review. Awful experience! Days before the hurricane, no water. Sold out every where and they cant make larger shipments. I was buying some chips and I asked if I could use a $1 off coupon. This Chinese bagger in the background was this Chinese bagger in the background was eavesdropping and listening to the conversation to the cashier, he laughed and said it's the end of the world and she wants to use the $1 off coupon.!!!!!!! So rude and unacceptable awful experience nobody should be treated this way especially with Publix "where shopping is a pleasure". She was the rudest of all Chinese bagers I ever encountered! If you see the Chinese bagger in this Publix go to a different checkout lane. Coupons is not a laughing matter! read more

This publix is in a great location right on Bayshore. Parking can be a little tricky sometimes because it can be quite packed but I will usually time my visit to the weeknights on my way home from work so that it isn't usually too much of a problem. Great selection of products available from organic produce to 5$ sushi Wednesday's and a solid wine collection. The bakery and deli are always wonderful. Customer service at publix is always excellent. And I do try to take advantage of their Bogo sales that can be quite a good deal. My one issue is that they have steps to exit and enter the store and only one long ramp on one side of the exit - this can be a little annoying if you are wanting to take a grocery cart full of bags to your car. read more
