Target

You know, I’m not sure how a Target, or any other store for that matter, can be classified as «boring», but this location succeeds at doing just that. This is the most BORING Target ever. Just dull, lifeless, blah. You don’t even get that «Target» excitement going here. No people in the parking lot scurrying about, no one to fight over a parking space with. It’s like going to Walgreens or something. Let’s get in, get out, cross it off the list.
A plus: they are always in stock on whatever it is you need.

It’s all right. Good section of women’s and men’s clothes, terrible selection of plus size clothes! And often out of stock on some of our regular products. Good prices and nice cashiers.

Best pharmacy in the area! Mandi and Jackie are always at the top of their game and are super friendly. The rest of the pharmacy team are great as well

This Target has always been clean, mostly quiet, and well-​stocked every time I visit. The fresh produce selection in the grocery section can use a lot of help, but the frozen, refrigerated, and pantry goods are plentiful. In the back right corner of the store, you can find all of the holiday and seasonal goods with which to decorate your house («gingerbread» house cat scratcher ftw).
Cell phone signal in the store is pretty much nonexistent, so finish up your calls and price-​matching searches before entering. Like most Targets, this one has a Starbucks café inside that’s almost always void of customers, so perfect if you’re in a rush. The workers are friendly and actually smile and greet you.
The store is in a very convenient location, although I would avoid coming here during prime traffic hours since North Druid Hills always becomes jam-​packed between 3 – 6 PM on the weekdays.

This is a nice Target. Quiet, laid back, overall nice staff. Café Bombay is close by, which means, that as you walk to the store from your parked car, you will smell Indian food; Café Bombay has a super strong exhaust system. Annoying. There is a Starbucks inside that has great staff.

There are NEVER enough cashiers available to check you out! The lanes get ridiculously long and it’s miserable. Unfortunately, I live close so it’s much more convenient for me to shop here. I do like the layout of the store however. Things are easy to find for the most part. I just wish I could check out faster.

I love target but as far as targets go this one is pretty disappointing. Items are often hard to find as they are not in the aisles that they are labeled to be. I’m not sure who does the hiring at this location as many of the employees are unprofessional, rude, slow and dressed inappropriately.

The epitome of CUSTOMER SERVICE.
I am a regular pharmacy guest. I get multiple meds from this location. I asked John in the pharmacy department if he could color code my different prescriptions. He explained that the color coding was for individuals within a household not for separate meds. He then gave me a different color, empty bottle for each of of my medications. That’s exactly what I needed! Little things mean a lot to someone who has severe rheumatoid arthritis in the hands. John made it easy for me to see which pills I’ve taken by giving me the mult-​colored bottles. I will ALWAYS be a loyal customer to this pharmacy because of his kind service. Something so small to others is a big deal to someone who has hand challenges. Kudos to John!

I live really close to this Target so it is very convenient for me. This target seems to have more items in stock than other locations, which is nice. The only negative I have is that it’s hard to find an employee to help find a particular item. They are not roaming the aisles like I have seen in other Targets. The cashiers are super nice when checking out though! I just wish some of them were in the back to help me find what I am looking for quicker.

The two star review isn’t bad, just that out of all the Targets in Atlanta, this is the one I never think of going to.
Its off North Druid Hills and Briarcliff and I can never figure out how to enter the parking lot. I usually end up going in behind Chickfalay, and then can’t figure out how to get to the Target from the CFA parking lot.
There is also an entrance behind the Taco Bell, but depending upon which way you are coming up or down North Druid Hills and traffic flow, it may be difficult to enter that way too.
However, to their defense, when I am looking for something in a Target store from the Target website, this location seemingly always pops up as having the item in stock.
Also if an item is on sale online but not in the store, you can take the item to the customer service counter and they will match the online price. Not sure if they match other stores prices, but they will match the Target online price.
The staff is helpful and when you pick up the red phone for an agent to come assist you in a particular area of the store, they get to you rather promptly.

I found out this was my Target of preference when I catch myself going back to this particular location despite having other ones closer by. It might be that I already know where everything is located or the familiar air that it has but I keep coming back to this location everytime I have the chance.
Altogether, Target is a store that has almost every basic item/​appliance (electronics, household, personal care stuff, etc). It has food as well but I’m not use to the idea of getting food in a Target (yet). I have never had a bad experience with this store, well stocked and with ample parking.

No one works here. The service is so ridiculously awful, it’s almost like a comedy. I’m sure Target is paying people to work at this store… however the «work» part is just not happening. I am thinking about applying for a job here, because I would love to collect a paycheck just to wear a red shirt and loudly goof around with other people in red shirts while ignoring 100% of customers. Sounds amazing to me.
Also, every Target store now does this thing that royally pisses me off. They jam your cell phone. Then they advertise «free wifi»… Wow… free wifi, that’s amazing! Except if you actually use their wifi, you will quickly discover that they block all access to competitors like walmart and amazon. I used to use amazon to compare prices and get more detailed info on products. Now, I can’t do that in ANY Target store because they Jam my cell service and block those sites on their WiFi. So guess what … instead of learning about a product and then possibly buying it at Target about 50% of the time, now I buy at Target 0% of the time. Congrats on your stupid, customer screwing, ignorant business plan Target!
Oh… and NO I don’t want to «Save 5%» when I check out by getting your crap credit card that will cost an extra 20% next month. Plus you have been sooo trustworthy with customer’s private information, so I would love for you to have all of my banking info too! Good thing I no longer visit your stores, because this yet another abusive tactic that is out of control.

This target is great… as others have mentioned it’s pretty much the same as any other target except I find it quieter than other stores I have been too. The staff are really helpful and they often have items on offer. I have been here a few times and would definitely go back.

No customer service. And no phone reception. Therefore you cant use their Cartwheels app or online coupons because you cant pull them up with no reception. The woman at the register had the nerve to tell me I could go stand outside in the cold rain to try to pull up the coupon. Uh no.

This location is okay. The store seems like it’s a tad dim. Lighting does play a big role on setting the right shopping vibe. I know I’m strange for mentioning this, but it’s a definite factor when reviewing a business’ in store experience/​atmosphere.
This location is pretty clean and organized. Some associates are more friendly than others. There were more less friendly individuals as I’ve only heard 2 employees greet customers out of the 6 to 8 that was in close proximity to me. Some even just stared at me while they had conversations on their own. One even talked on his cell phone while on the floor. :\ Tisk. Tisk.
They do have a produce and frozen food sections here. I guess that’s a good thing, but my trip here wasn’t to explore that area of the store. lol. The stationary section they have was pretty stocked. As I maneuvered around looking for a journal and at the clearance items, I find that the person assigned to this area could have done a better job at organizing and putting things back. From passing by, yes, everything looks in order, but things weren’t perfectly at it’s designated area or even close to the price tags. It was annoying how I had to visit the price checker so many times.
And their make-​up clearance also was below par. I guess either they don’t stock up as much and do not have a lot of clearance items or people just bought everything as soon as it’s on sale, but their overall stock was limited in nature.
The only real positive experience here was the cashier. She was super smiley and friendly. She even gave me a tip on how to keep my henna tattoo stay fresh longer. Way to go on providing that awesome customer service level ALL Targets should have. Needless to say, even my small town Target even have better service levels…

This is a great Target. It’s pretty much like all the other one’s though. I don’t know what’s up with all of the harsh reviews, but I’ve never had a bad experience in here. I mean it’s not 5 star shopping, but it’s good enough.
And yea, it’s products come from the same places as Walmart’s most likely… just a slightly different experience.

I am reviewing this location solely based upon my experience as a recently handicapped person. I broke my ankle two weeks ago and am realizing that regardless of the ADA regulations that have been in effect since the 90’s, there are still many variables in accessibility that are left up to interpretation.
The automated carts here are inferior. They are slow, the turning radius is lacking, and the back up bell is embarrassingly loud. SO loud that I laughed in embarrassment each time I had to turn around. Luckily my husband was there to help me play it off.
The aisles are narrow. Even if I chose to use reverse and suscept myself to the absurdly loud back up bell, I still wouldn’t have been able to turn around within the aisle. So I drove at a turtles’ speed in circles through the aisles several times to get back to the spot that was just inches behind me in the same aisle.
Argh!

Blue Beats Pill. It seemed like something simple enough to locate, especially during back to school shopping season.
The Target website carries it and I assumed it was available in all of their stores. I stopped here on my way home from work on the Friday before Labor Day. It wasn’t particularly busy and at 4:40 PM I assume would have been adequately staffed.
I was able to locate the Beats Pill display in the electronics department, but only the red, black, and white ones were in the case. I tried to find someone from the department to ask if they carried the blue one and I couldn’t find anyone. No problem. I walked over to the Guest Services desk. I stood there alone for approximately 3 minutes before using the Unilocal app to look up the store’s phone number to call.
I tried calling the electronics department directly, but no one answered and my call was routed to the operator. I told her I was in the store and needed assistance. At first she was confused and then asked if I was in electronics. I told her I was at Guest Services. She hung up and I heard an announcement that a Guest Needed assistance at Guest Services. A guy walked over and inside the door to get behind the counter. He walked around and then called out someone’s name. He appeared to be looking for an associate he assumed was working. Keep in mind, he still hasn’t even acknowledged me.
Finally, he acknowledged me and I told him I needed him locating a blue Beats Pill. There weren’t any on the shelf and I wanted to know if they carried them in that store. He picked up the phone and called someone. After giving the person my description (I was wearing an orange shirt at the time) he hung up and then pointed back at electronics and said they could help me over there.
Long story short (too late, I know), they don’t carry the blue Beats Pill at this Target.

One of my favorite Targets. Mainly because when I like an item, they always have my size. A couple of times I have searched for an item in person or through the website and found out that this location has it.
The staff is friendly. The store and parking lot are clean.

I’m going to try to not ding Target too much for my observation last Friday. Apparently with the high school across the street, they play football games (guessing) and target seems to allow their entire lot to be filled with their cars. I went in for advil and fought my way through crowds of people walking out of the lot, across the street, ignoring the vehicles or exit lights trying to get out of the target. It was a mess.
With that said, target itself is pretty standard and I found exactly what I needed, advil at a pretty cheap price, and with my headache, it was awesome to see the pharmacy section was immediately to the right once you enter the store.
Getting in and out of the Target was done more quickly than it took to find an initial parking space, and I thank them for their speed and great service. I just wish they could do something for crowd control. Either way, if there’s an event going on, you may want to stay away!
