Harris Teeter

This Harris Teeter is a just a hop, skip, and a jump from my house. It’s so close in fact I like to walk here just pick-​up various tidbits instead of keeping a full fridge or packed pantry. Only Schwan’s makes it easier for me to shop: although you can order ahead to this location and pick it up at their convenient grocery drive-​thru (for a cost).
I generally like all Harris Teeter grocery stores. Their prices are decent and the VIC card savings are better than most competitors. The real challenge I have with this location is more aesthetics than anything else. I am not sure who designed this particular store, because nothing seems to be laid out quite right. The most glaring example of poor layout is where they have the Pharmacy. It is located smack dab in the middle of the store along an aisle with the signage facing away from the entrance to the store. If you weren’t looking for the pharmacy I guarantee you you’d walk right by it. I did. In point of fact until I went looking for a blood pressure machine that was advertised as being onsite I had missed the pharmacy at least on a score of visits.
The Pharmacy isn’t the only poorly positioned feature at the store. They actually have a Starbucks in-​house. You wouldn’t know it though. They do have a sign outside the store, but when you enter through the main doors you have to take a hard right, pass through a portion of the deli and flower shop before taking another right turn just to see the Starbucks sign. Then you’ll find it. Not convenient at all. Must have been an afterthought.
Other oddities include where certain products are located. They have your organic pre-​made frozen breads in a freezer in the bakery area instead of the freezer section like most stores; the beer and wine are all the way in the back right corner after you pass through the fruits and veggies section; the gluten-​free necessities are located inside the pharmacy area with some other diet restrictive items located towards the front near the self-​checkout and the Melon Bar: Didn’t even know that was there. It’s in the front, but tucked behind several displays. The freezer section is also in an unusual place. It is bunched together in the front right hand side of the store: complete opposite side of the store from the frozen organic breads as I mentioned.
I know it sounds like knit-​picking, but layout is a big deal. One of the more interesting layout challenges actually involves their spice section located in a middle aisle of the store. Would you believe that you may pay more for a spice from the spice section than for the same spice in their international foods section. In other words, it behooves you to look for spices by their country of origin as opposed to by the general spice section of the store. Turmeric, an Indian Spice that works wonderfully on everything is more expensive in the spice aisle than the Indian food section. In fact, you can get a larger bottle in the ethnic section at half the price. Amazing.
Spices aren’t the only items that have varying prices in the main store versus the international foods sections. Several salsas, noodles, and sauces are much cheaper in their international area. You’ll save if you’re observant.
Aside from aesthetics, I like the team at the store. I’ve had several (5) challenges with being miss charged and having to visit the biz center for refunds, but everybody was nice and the problems were solved in short order. I also love the self-​checkout. It cuts back on long wait times and the coupon kings. Finally, I’ll note that they do have a decent beer selection… just not as good as the selections in Ft. Mill or Tega Cay.

This Harris Teeter always seemed dirty to me, and always had a smell to it. The produce wasn’t always kept up well either. Now Publix is across the street I can’t imagine this Harris Teeter doing well. The only thing Harris Teeter has to offer is a better coupon policy.

Good old Teeter. Even on the busiest of grocery shopping days, they are always well staffed and stocked. I have been several times in the last few days buying items for Turkey Day. While the lines may be 2 – 3 people deep at the check-​out cashiers, self checkout has been quick and easy. No need to stand and wait when I only have a few items. The store is also always clean and the staff always says hello. Great specials and deals on items for the holidays. Love the Vic Saver emails. I should also mention that for a grocery store, they have a decent guilt free wine selection.

I really enjoy the bean dip that they make here. If I come in and there isn’t any I will ask and they will make it for me. Purchased some over the 4^th of July weekend and it was a crowd pleaser. I also like shopping here when they have sales. I’m anticipating the opening of a new store closer to Berewick.

With the out-​of-​town supermarket opened next door, this Teeter hasn’t needed to step up its game by much to stay clean, bright and relevant. This is a busy market area with those folks and the «red circle» people on the other corner, so the competition is rather fierce.
Lots of beer coolers, a really good wine section, top notch produce, excellent butcher and fish counter. The shelves are well stocked, the shopping carts all have working wheels. What’s not to love?
And speaking of love, the pharmacy here is excellent. There’s something awesome when they remember your name.

Great customer service experience with Chris who works as bagger /​cashier. Great attitude, knowledgeable, hard worker.

The store is clean and the employees are very nice.
I come here mostly for hard to find items, seafood, and their beer selection.
Parking can be a pain sometimes since it’s located in a strip mall, but it’s not the worst.
Prices might be a little high, but they make up for it in customer service, selection, and appearance.

This is how a grocery store ought to be. Tremendous selection, friendly staff, clean store. Lots of extras. I hope when Publix opens in Lake Wylie, its comparable.
Note to Harris Teeter Senior Management — You need to open a store over in Clover, SC. There is a perfect piece of land available too — at the intersection of 274 and 49 (where they split) near the entrance to Bethelfields.

This store is on par with the rest of the HT chain, so it’s clean and all that jazz… The carts are in pretty good condition, so if you find one with a wobbly wheel, there’s a chance you can pick another one around it and end up with a winner…
The only thing that is less than awesome is going to do a coupon special (Super Double or Triple) on any other day than the Wednesday it starts… Seriously, if you’re looking for something in particular, you’d better take the day off work or head to another store… For some reason, this one is out of the majority of products well before any of the other stores in the area… I guess they’ve just got a large clientele and not enough items to last… It’s not bad, but it could be better… On the upside, though, they do offer rain checks, but let’s face it… Who remembers to use those? lol

Great store, love the order on line and pick up service. I was in the store Monday night and my son left his meds in the buggy by mistake, the Mgr. called us and waited for us to return for
family has been shopping here since 1998 and has always gotten great service, selection, and good food!

the best harris teeter supermarket ever! they have a starbucks, asian bar daily, bakery, deli, great organic selection, it’s great!!! it’s so close to everything else too.

I live less than a mile from this location, and Steelcroft has been «my Harris Teeter» for the past 4+ years.
This large store recently underwent an impressive makeover to rival the Morrison Road «Taj-​Ma» Teeter & Cotswold Teeter locations. We now have many of their same upgrades, including a substantial salad & hot food bar, considerable deli/​bakery, and expanded produce department. However, the addition of the Starbucks to this location has put temptation right at my back door!
After only two visits, I have been completely sucked in and caught up thanks to Alyssa & Carol’s magical ability to take my «not-​on-​the menu custom» latte request and convert it to the absolute BEST frappuccino laced with extra whipped cream, topped with a caramel + chocolate drizzle, and sprinkled with vanilla sugar! Sooo YUM and sooo DELISH! Before I could exit the café, another customer inquired what I had and wanted to know if they would create the same for her.
Carol was one of my favs when she worked in customer service prior to the store’s facelift. And, Alyssa is my new favorite awesome and supremely talented barista, who’s not afraid to strut her exceptional skills. These two are so terrific and accommodating, you may find me looking for them with a flashlight in the daylight!
Kudos and atta girls to Olympia and Kemica for good (comedic) conversation, helpful suggestions, and for giving overall excellent customer service each and every time!
I’ve shopped other Teeter locations and, clearly, this one is second to none! And, the unparalleled coffee drinks and extraordinary customer service at this location is EVERYTHING! GREAT STORE, GREAT JOB!

What I like most about the location of this store is that its so close to everything, there’s a Super Target, Bilo and CVS all in the same general area! So, its a little farther from my home but well worth the trip.
Every time I’ve been here the store is clean and there are associates to help when you need, today I visited the deli and it was great service, the associate let me sample the different meats and cheeses and ensured that the cuts were just right.
What I also liked was all the different prepared meal bars, there was a pizza station, a lunch station that today was serving Chinese they had egg rolls, fried rice, lo mein, several different meat selections and vegetables, a made to order sushi station as well as a made to order sandwich station!
Overall, I enjoy shopping here and I will definitely be back!
