Flower cupcakes by Emily.

Emily in the bakery is so talented. She made the cutest cupcakes and had a wonderful attitude when I asked for them to be wrapped a special way. Thanks Emily!

Wanted to show her the final outcome. Thank you again Cecy for your help!

I want to give a shout out to Ceci in the bakery department. She went above and beyond to help me today to get a cake done for my sons b-day. She was extremely polite, knowledgeable, very helping. Thank you for your help we need more people like you.

Faruque and my mother!
Max G.

You can't train people to care. My 80 year old mother goes out of her way to shop at the Tom Thumb on Preston Forest. Faruque is a long time employee who always goes out of his way to assist my mother to lift heavy things in her basket and help load her car. He is always super nice and endearing. We are sad to hear that Faruque is retiring and moving back to India! We wish him well and are grateful of his years of great customer experience and supporting our mother! Hopefully Tom Thumb throws him a retirement party or lunch.

Loving that spring is here!

This is probably my favorite Tom Thumb around. It is always clean, always well-stocked and the employees are pretty friendly. It is convenient to my house and right at the corner of Forest Lane and Preston Road. There is always decent parking available and they are open everyday.

3 month old bag of shrimp SMH!!
Renee A.

I purchased this bag of "Open Nature Wild-Caught Large Shrimp" at 8:09 pm, Saturday April 7th, 2018. I got home and the moment I opened the bag the stinch hit me upside my face! Low and behold I turn this bag of shrimp over and it reads "BEST BY: JAN 25 2018". WTF??? If I didn't love so far away from this Tom Thumb I would take these back tonight. But since I do, I will be returning that promptly in the morning and will not be shopping there any longer. I mean what other produce do they have back there that is nearly 3 months old!!

The 25 minutes I was on hold.

Five star service!!! I went in as a out of towner, staying for a week, that knew nothing. Their…read morefood selection was on point but more importantly every employee I came across was super helpful. They provided useful tips for staying in town, what to see/where to go, and a few people even chimed in on where to avoid. I'm usually better at getting names so shame on me for that, but particularly helpful were the deli lady and the Starbucks girls, all of whom were working the morning of 12/26 at 10 am (hopefully that helps their bosses recognize them) The prices seemed good but admittedly I was in vacation mode (where money doesn't matter until you come home) and the service was top notch, but do yourself a favor and stay out of the men's room!! There were some shady dealings going down in the men's room

To be clear, the customer service staff is the worst part of this location…read more During the daytime, there are two Black ladies (one named Nia, and unfortunately I didn't catch the other's name), and in the evening there is a Black guy with braids. All three consistently have terrible attitudes. They either seem to hate their jobs, dislike dealing with customers, or both. I dread coming here knowing there's a good chance I'll have to interact with one of them, but unfortunately it's often unavoidable. In a time when good jobs can be difficult to find, you would think employees would put more effort into providing basic customer service. For the record, I am Black myself, so let's not turn this into a race issue. I only mentioned race because I don't know all of their names and wanted to identify the specific employees I'm referring to, not anyone else who may work there. These employees are consistently unpleasant and would probably be better suited for positions that involve less direct customer interaction, such as produce, stocking, or the meat department. Their attitudes make what should be a simple shopping trip far more frustrating than it needs to be.

The staff here is a little annoying at times, since they're doing a "donate to a local student scholarship drive", and the cashiers guilt-trip you (and they're fairly persistent) into donating. And when you do contribute, they broadcast it throughout the store. I get it's for a good cause, and I hate to be "that guy", but it is a little irritating after a while. On the plus side, the self-checkout attendants are usually fairly helpful and attentive, so that's good. The last time I wanted to check out, all of the registers were closed, so the self-checkout line was over a dozen people/carts long (thankfully two rows of self-checkout made the line dwindle fairly quickly). Another two lanes of self-checkout were opened at the other end of the store, but there were at least 3-4 attendants at the self-checkout lanes, so I'm curious as to why nobody was manning the actual registers. Finally, as I was leaving, two of the staff were having a casual non-work conversation, blocking the exit, so I asked them politely to move for my cart. They did so, but muttered under their breath for me to use the other exit. It was rather rude, since not only is that not appropriate customer service, but my car was parked at the other end of the parking lot, and the exit was right in front of me, which they were blocking. Overall, Krogers itself is great. You can probably find whatever you're looking for there, even if it might not be food, and for reasonable prices. But the staff and service don't always make your shopping experience a positive one.

This is the shittiest Kroger I've ever been to. And that is saying something. It feels like nobody…read moredoes their job here. Particularly the people who return carts. Every time I come here, there are never any carts ready to go. And if they are, they're full of trash. I will drive to a different Kroger just to avoid this one.

You can never go wrong with a stop at Trader Joe's! They always have such a fun variety of options…read morefresh produce, fresh bread, great pastas, and of course whatever the current viral food trend is that has everyone online trying to recreate it at home. I picked up a few new things this trip, including vanilla bean paste for my coffee, which I'm VERY intrigued to try! I also had such a sweet interaction with one of the associates. I was specifically looking for a bruschetta sauce that I couldn't find on the shelf, and he was so kind and helpful. He checked for me twice because the system showed it was in stock, but neither of us could seem to find it. After strolling around the store a little longer and somehow adding several things to my cart that I probably did not come in for lol, I FOUND IT! It genuinely made my day, and I actually went back to find him just to let him know there was success at the end of our little bruschetta hunt and to thank him again for trying to help me. That kind of service really stands out to me. The staff here felt kind, patient, observant, and genuinely caring and that matters tenfold. This isn't my usual Trader Joe's location since I was just in the area across the street at Truck Yard, but I'm glad I decided to stop in and kill two birds with one stone. I would definitely come back whenever I'm in the area! Xoxo.

So many neat items and all at low prices. I got dinner for 2 nights, 2 lunches and items to make…read morebrunch all for $40. Very pleasant shopping experience here, they have very good AC and typically clean bathrooms.
