Publix Super Markets

Soon after moving we learned that there were distinct disadvantages in shopping for groceries and supplies in SW Florida versus (Indiana) the Crossroads of America. Prior to our home purchase here in Cape Coral we lived in an apartment in Ft. Myers. Over the six months we lived there, I became accustomed to shopping at multiple stores a week because supply and variety was limited at each. Despite exploring many stores, this held true.
We were happy to discover this Publix has superior selection to other stores in the area. We’ve found it to be clean, bright and well-​stocked. It still doesn’t have the variety and selection we enjoyed in Indiana but it is well above average for SW Florida.

I’ve been shopping at this Publix since it opened. It’s very clean, and there is no odor. Sometimes I’ve entered a grocery store and immediately been accosted by the smell of fish or rotted vegetables. The staff is accommodating and very friendly. There is a huge area of natural food and also a British and German section. The bakery is fantastic. One afternoon I was leaving the store with my cart when a tremendous thunderstorm hit. There was a rather large group of people «waiting it out» and a member of the staff came by, offering us cookies from the bakery. Kudos to the managers of this store.

God bless this Publix. I called about ten different grocery stores, Publix included & none of them sold dry ice. Called up this one & they do. At $ 1.49 a pound it ain’t cheap, but it’ll help on the drive back up to Tennessee to keep some seafood fresh.

OK… I’m from Michigan and we have been down here the month of March and this grocery store change just blows me away! We have been in a few stores and their customer service is out of this world! EVERY person we encounter (asking questions of where items were etc) were so nice and literally walked us to where the item was. The checkout personnel were also so nice! In addition, the stores were super clean, offered as wonderful variety, including an awesome bakery and flower department! They apparently are «employee owned», which obviously makes a HUGE difference. Keep up the fantastic work Publix!

why is this even listed in farmers markets? This is not a farmers market, it’s a grocery store. Personally I am not a great fan of this franchise. Some (many) items are more expensive than any other store. Very few choices as far as brands go, especially international. Maybe I am spoiled by other NE markets, but this definitely does not qualify as a «farmers market», huge difference, buying from a «real» local farmer and from a grocery store. I don’t want my produce from different states, when there are plenty of farmers Here locally trying to earn a living and they do NOT grow Franken GMO foods you buy at the store. &heart I SUPPORT my LOCAL FARMERS. &heart

This Publix has a very different feel than all of the others — it has been set-​up with a farmer’s market theme. I was entranced by the difference. Usually I will see 3 or 4 different designs based solely on how old the store is. I like that this one is different.
It was late at night when I visited and the store was about 15 minutes until closing. All I wanted was a sandwich. At the deli counter I was a tad sad due to the fact that they had already shut down all of the machinery. The lady behind the counter saw me and asked what I was looking to get. When she heard I wanted a steak and cheese, she said, «No problem,» and messed what she had just cleaned. I have never been to a Publix before or after this occurrence where the deli has reopened after closing.
I really like this Publix.

Huge Publix with an unusual layout… but I like it! Great selection and the employees are very friendly! They have the largest Greenwise selection I’ve seen if you are looking for organics/​allergy friendly foods.
