Kroger

This is a clean, well stocked Kroger store. I love the location, parking etc.

While the pharmacy staff here is amazing (got my flu shot here for free this week!), friendly, prompt and cheerful the crowds, difficulty of navigating the parking lot and hostility of the wine manager put me off. We throw a lot of dinner parties and girls night wine parties and typically buy a case a month of wine in the $ 12 – 15 range with a couple of special bottles thrown in Tooth & Nail, Orin Swift, Oeil Perdrix champagne in the $ 25 – 45 range for anniversaries and birthdays. I stopped in to ask the sommelier if he could order Tooth & Nail (a new Orin Swift wine at a $ 20 – 25 price point) and belligerently he demanded if I would buy an entire case. What?! This is a new, moderately priced wine by one of the most popular wineries. No way to treat customers or build relationships. Boo.

This location is always crowded & I think they’re in the process of remodeling, so the shelves aren’t always stocked.

I hate this store with a passion. It’s 2 minutes from my house, but is such a cluster inside that I will drive further away to avoid it. The aisles don’t line up, the shelves are usually picked over and it’s so crowded that having a cart is an issue. I’m hopeful that when the new Oakley store opens that this one will shape up, otherwise, I guess I’ll head to the new store.

The produce is not even close to fresh at this location. The packed salads/​greens are always wilted, and regular produce often goes bad on the store shelves. We are done with this location.
Shelves are always picked over, not a great selection. Plus, Kroger in general has overpriced organic items.

very big store very nice but the people there are very rude and stuck up prices are high the people that work there think they are much better than everybody so that’s exactly why I will not ever shop there I don’t know how you could be stuck up working at a grocery store at 8 dollars an hour don’t make me laugh Krogers

Kroger really has done a great job with their selection… they carry just about everything. I like that they have a pharmacy and Fifth Third Bank in the store. I just wish their parking situation was better… it’s difficult and time consuming to find a parking space here.

Don’t understand why this krogers is always always so crowded no matter what time or day. Parking is sometimes real hard to find. On the positive note, friendly helpful staff

I really don’t like this Kroger. I have nothing against Kroger, the chain, in general. My issue is that this particular store is always, literally ALWAYS, packed. You can come here on a weeknight at 8pm or on a Sunday 7am and it would still be crowded. And we’re not just talking crowded, like, oh hey I might run into someone’s cart in an aisle… I’m talking crowded to the point where I can’t even look at the different cereals because there’s so many people blocking the aisles, and I have to wait 25 minutes to pick up my prescription.
I foolishly set up this Kroger pharmacy as my main pharmacy, but after waiting in that long as hell line too many times, I switched to a different pharmacy for my prescriptions.
Avoid this place like the plague. The only thing good about it is that it’s a very large Kroger, so obviously it’s nice and they have a good selection of high quality stuff (snacks, beer, wine, organic food, meats, you name it). But unless you’re willing to push your way through people to get to your items, I would avoid it. I go to Remke or Fresh Thyme instead for all of my groceries.

This kroger is so central & large which makes it pretty much packed at all times. I think prices are good & I enjoy the salad bar & fresh produce. The reason I am giving them a 3 star review is because the pharmacy has messed up my simple prescription a few different times (which is so frustrating after waiting in their always long line), and the parking lot is always a mess! I also have had 2 experiences in this parking lot where I have been cornered and asked for money as I am trying to put my groceries away. It is so uncomfortable and quite scary at night. Aside from those things, I love this kroger — pretty much bound to run into someone you know every visit!

They vegan/​health/​alternative food selections are awesome, only second to the new Newport (KY) Kroger! This is usually my go to store since I often stop by Whole Foods after for whatever I can’t get at this Kroger. I love that it’s 24/​7, but I’ve been to this place twice now when it’s been closed. Wish they’d send emails to preferred store rewards programs customers regarding that. I’ve always had a great experience shopping at this store! I once bought a cake at the bakery, and they even did the custom icing for me! :) I also like that they have sushi although it’s hard to find cucumber-​free vegan sushi here versus at Whole Foods. I also love that you can use your digital coupons while shopping! The store even has a Starbucks inside!

This is the second week in a row that I have been greatly disappointed by this store. They are consistently out of certain organic fruit claiming that they can’t get it while the Newport Kroger store has the same organic fruit in stock. Last week I found rotting fruit on display. Also other organic staples and other goods completely out of stock. What’s the problem with the store?

Forget about the drive up window. They really don’t know what they are doing. IF they will even answer the video call. Very poor service at the drive up.

Never thought I’d be reviewing a grocery store out of all the places I’ve searched on Unilocal.I have a simple rule, if I have an experience worth noting… write it down. Well here it is… this Kroger has become my weekly staple.
I don’t usually look to interact with the people that work there but last week I ran into a pickle looking for a couple odd items on my shopping list… I ran into Marvin who immediately stopped what he was doing to help me out. When he saw an item he didn’t recognize so we searched the item online for a picture and right then and there he knew exactly where it was! My boyfriend and I were so impressed! The next time we came through the store… we almost missed Marvin but when we finally ran into him in the store on our way out. He gave us a friendly hello and asked us if there was anything else on our list today. I sure appreciated the fact that he remembered us let alone was willing to help us again. We didn’t have anything new but left the grocery feeling very satisfied.
If you are like me and can’t find everything you’re looking for definitely don’t hesitate to ask… hopefully you’ll run into Marvin. This Kroger service is definitely worth checking out. (p.s. if you want to skip the crowd stay away from Sundays… and late evenings seem like the most peaceful time to shop.)

This is just a review of their cheese shop, which is surprisingly versatile, particularly for vegetarians. Many people don’t know that many cheeses have animal rennet in them, making them objectionable for certain vegetarians. I had a negative experience in Findlay Market where I was vegetarian-​shamed for even asking if any of the cheeses were good for veggies.
Coming to the Murray’s Cheese Shop in the HP Krogers was a breath of fresh air. They were very accommodating, helping me find vegetarian Parmesan (which is surprisingly rare) and inspiring further purchases of delicious blue, cheddar, and Brie cheeses. The samples came quickly and the suggestions were outstanding. The next time we want to host a party, we will stop by here to get some gourmet cheese!

The Hyde Park Krogers was rumored for years as the best place in Cincinnati to find a date, because apparently the frozen foods aisle had some crazy mojo going that caused people to fall in love. While I’ve never had this kind of Kroger-​ing experience, I am usually a happy shopper since the HP Kroger has everything my household needs every week.
Be advised that the produce section is tucked in the fair left back, which is a little confusing for first time shoppers. There’s a great wine and beer selection, and a fancy cheese station as well. If you live in Clifton/​Corryville/​Walnut Hills and your local grocery store isn’t cutting the mustard when you need to track down something vaguely «nice» like fresh mozzarella or gnocchi, then it’s worth making the trip out to Hyde Park.

There is a lot of potential for this story. It has wine tasting some evenings and the produce is fresh with a sufficient variety.
If you sign up for the loyalty card and given them your E-​mail. they send you an advertisement each Friday with a link to load a coupon to your card that allows you to get the featured product for Free. This is great to get you in the store on a weekly basis. The problem is that it is difficult to find the free product. I’ve picked up half a dozen of these and required customer service to search the store for it. Often times most of the staff doesn’t know where the product is or the program even exists. If they can solve for this (as a market researcher studying shoppers I explained to them how to fix), I expect they will be much more successful. .. and increase their star rating. :)

This Kroger is huge! Lots of depth.
Same stuff in it as every Kroger, and the parking lot is a pain to get in and out of just like every other Kroger.
There is a Remke-Bigg’s in the same plaza that will give you more options for alcohol and produce.

A very well organized grocery store near the nice neighborhood. I am a fan of this place because they have everything to beat the high end grocery stores in the area like Whole foods market. There is ample parking and a nice gas station on the property.
The best thing about this store is a monitor that shows which line is going faster! Also they have more check-​out lines open during the busy days like Sunday.

I really don’t like this Kroger. The parking is awful, it’s dark inside and always crowded. I also feel like it’s not very well laid out and confusing.
We came here recently for the wine tasting on a friday night, which is hidden in the back of the wine section and I felt it was hard to find out what the wines were.
