Publix Super Markets

This is a pretty standard Publix. They have a larger selection than some of the other Publix stores I have been to. The store is usually well maintained and stocked and the deli selections are usually enjoyable.
The Publix shares the parking lot with a few other stores but I have never had an issue finding parking. From my experience the employees are helpful and the customer service area was pretty quick.

THE WORSE CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!! This is my second time coming to this location and being told they can’t make fresh food… It is 6:22 and the deli does not close until 9pm… I was told they can’t make fresh food, then I was told it would take an hour to drop some fresh wings… Lazy ass management, lazy workers who do not value customer service! I will never ever step foot in this location again!!! The manager would not even come to customer service to talk to me… She simply wanted to relay messages over the phone to the customer service rep who I could barely understand!!! The only reason why there is one star is because I can’t leave it blank!

This is a new store. They have most all items needed so I come here over Kroger. The prices are more but I think that they give you a better choice when buying meats. The staff is good and I just love how they bag everything for you.

As much as i love this store i hate to have to give this bad review. When i first got there the deli line had about 10 people waiting and the chicken line had 1. Great! I’m coming for those Mardi gras wings. When i got back in my big truck and made it to my destination i grabbed the first piece of chicken and took a bite and «crunch» went the skin… Ooh nice crunchy skin! Took the second bite and «crunch» went the meat… Puzzled i stared at the little wing because something wasn’t right. Meat is not supposed to crunch! These wings looked like whoever cooked them went on break while they were in the fryer then came back for them. They were waaay overcooked! I had about 16 and probably 13 were overcooked and dry and sharp. I could barely tell the difference between the meat and the bone. This is by far the worst wings i have ever had at any publix. Did i eat them? Hell yeh i ate them! I’m a truck driver we’re trained how to tolerate nasty food. I would have taken them back if I wasn’t on a schedule. If you still want to eat their wings i have two tips for you. 1) check them as they are putting them in there. And 2) make a dentist appointment after your done eating them because you may need one. Now i see why the chicken line was so empty lol. Good luck folks! May your teeth er i mean may the force be with you!

Only complaint about this store is waiting too long at the deli counter for a sandwich. I was heading to Stone Mountain for a concert on Friday night. At 6:30 pm I arrived at the Deli counter for a sandwich. I was second in line and waited 16 minutes before being served. The sandwich maker was having a casual «where are your from» conversation with the customer at the counter (while making four subs) and the line length was increasing. It all seemed to move in slow motion.
This wasn’t the first time I had to wait an unreasonable amount of time for a sandwich.

I suppose it seems strange to write a review about a grocery store chain on Unilocal,but I do love Publix. (QuikTrip too, but that’s another review.) The stores are nearly universally cleaner and staff more friendly and courteous than at competing stores. It does seem like you can pay a little more for certain items — and for some things that’s OK and for others it isn’t.
One of the main reasons I go to Publix is for their deli and bakery. The foodies here on Unilocal will obviously prefer a «real» deli (as would I, all things equal) but the sandwiches, bread and sweets here really are quite good. The Italian sub is a classic and not to be missed. The Buffalo Chicken sub is even better, though. I actually think (and I’ve heard others agree) that Publix actually has some of the better fried chicken in Atlanta. What more then could you ask for than their buffalo chicken tenders on a sub? I get this all the time and it is literally one of my favorite, easy-​to-​get sandwiches in the area. Plus, a large is big enough to easily make two meals out of. I’m not sure if they still do this, but on weekends after about 5:00 or so, they’d cut the price of a bag of fried chicken in half (to about $ 6). This was an absolute steal and definitely worth it.
As far as their bakery goes, I haven’t tried all that much but what I have was very good. The Cuban bread and Red Velvet Cream Cheese cake were outstanding, but the Praline Pecan Muffins, ohh my, delicious! Delicious and about 1,000 calories each.
Pros: Clean stores, friendly stuff, delicious bakery and deli.
Cons: Perhaps a little more expensive than other grocery stores.
Verdict: Recommended

Not terrible. The isles were clean, it’s in a nice area, but the staff was on and off. The staff up front was super nice and helpful but the staff working the fruit area stunk! We had to yell a few times to try and get someone’s attention after they ignored us when they saw us. My husband had to finally open the door to the back after making eye contact with two employees who ignored him, and asked for help and we finally got it. The fruit area was really nasty. It looked like people were grabbing handfuls of cherries and grapes and eating them out of the bags. We’ve been to better Publix locations!

Nice, clean, bright Publix store. Great selection of international and hard to find items. Prices are higher for basic groceries than the Ingles next door and beware the parking lot — it can get a little nuts! Service is «ok», not as friendly as the Publix in Lilburn, but no real complaints.

Sometimes the lines are long, but the store is extremely well kept. Most recently I experienced «the publix promise» and the staff gave me a free item simply for it now ringing up the correct price. I had never heard of this before! I contacted corporate to express my gratitude and they replied promptly with a snail mail letter. Love publix and think the prices are totally worth the service you get over other stores.

I love Publix!!! Lol I always spend too much money in here. I blame it on the BOGOs bit such a great deal that I buy stuff I don’t need. «Do I need this? No but I will eventually» No other grocery can come close to their deals.
The staff in the bakery have always been really nice to me. Their desserts are Great! I normally prefer «real bakeries» over grocery store bakeries because of how picky I am. I can buy a cake from here and bring to work or a party to share.
The prices here can be higher than other grocery stores but this location always has what I am looking for. Great store and great people.

Oh my God, You guys think your the best However… You guys got me sick from a Pancake mix I bought not so long ago… The Pancake Turned out fine however, After when I ate it… I felt Queasy and kept constantly use the restroom. Sherry my good Comrade, Suffered the similar situation except She has tapeworms from one of you guys. I believe it was the Lamb Chops that was on Bargain bin. Seriously, What is wrong with you guys? I prefer Wal-​mart or even Target then this. Sherry suffered Tapeworms in your MEAT??? I, somehow suffered stomach cramps from Pancake mix because I read the instructions on your pancake recipe and I made it Vegan the Same Issue Occurs. Why is this happening to us? Seriously I don’t know what to say
«What were you guys doing when the Store Inspector of Health in GA came?» Tell me, Even Kroger, Ralphs, Trader Joe’s, & Whole Foods never had this Issue. However, Publix you made both of us Sick from your Products! This is utterly ridiculous, treating us like dumb Customers. I’m Lucky that I didn’t File a Lawsuit against you guys!

I love the Publix BOGO and I often will go here just to see what they have. I agree with the other poster in regards to the deli. I love their food but everyone seems to be in slow motion. Most of the staff seem very friendly at this store location and this place is the cleanest store to grocery shop at in the city of Tucker. The have one check out lady who is the SLOWEST cashier I have ever crossed paths with. I go here often and will continue to do so.

I’ve been shopping at this Publix for the past 10 years or so. Tucker is blessed to have Walmart, Kroger, Ingles and Publix all around 1 corner. Ingles always seems empty, and a few years ago, Walmart added their grocery section. While Kroger and walmart are a little cheaper, I really enjoy going back to this Publix where people recognize you, give you great service, and take pride in their store. it’s always clean, and it’s nice to chat with the staff here.
And a free kids cookie every visit helps as well!

My trusted Publix. I enjoy shopping here because they often have what I want and whenever I can find something they are more than willing to help me find it at another store. They are more than awesome about the screaming 2 year old I have with me sometimes, but the reason why he screams is because they are so awesome and gives him free cookies. All in all not much more to ask for except some self check out lanes, but oh well. It’s clean with a helpful and friendly staff. Between this place and Target I should just start paying rent.

I went in on 4÷10÷12 and not only did they get my order of ballons wrong but actually tried to tell me that it was what I had ordered when in fact I had said no I do not want those colors they are to dark and do not go with the theme but they still went ahead and gave them to me and insisted that is what I ordered. I had also ordered 12 baloons and only got 11 and they didnt even bother to tie the ballons to a wieght which is complimentary but had. And when they handed them to me they were completely tangled. I had to cut them all half way because they were so badly tangled. The service was rude and the lady who waited on me had a bad attitude. I am not at all satisfied with their customer service and the services provided. I will not return there again.

I hate to crash on a Publix. I love Publix and all it has to offer, but damn this one is just awfully slow in their service. I just recently started a job close by and with nothing but shit junk food around I’ve been here a few days for lunch. And every day, it’s a solid 25 minutes minimum to get a sandwich and pay. The deli area seems well staffed but no one really wants to help you, they all wander around like they’re lost. When you get someone, they don’t seem to be able to find the meats or cheeses without stopping a minute and going in the back. When you finally get to the register there’s rarely more than two open and the fast lane, 10 items of less, is full of people with three dozen items plus. They really need a staff overhaul here. I’ll keep them in mind since nothing else around is any good, but damn if I hate having to waste that much time for nothing.

I never gave much thought to reviewing a grocery store but since this one has become a favorite lunch spot of mine I figured why not. I work in the Tucker area and unless you want the usual fast food places there really isn’t much in the way of good places for lunch. There are a small handful of places that even while good can get old after eating every single day. This has me frequenting this store quite a bit.
The store is clean and pretty well organized. I like the fact that this store seems to have a much larger selection of international foods than some of the other grocery stores I have been to. The have an awesome section with Indian foods; some ready to eat and some need further preparation but either way I happen to like Indian food quite a bit and appreciate the fact that they have this selection.
The Deli is where I probably make most of my purchases. There is always good variety whether you want a soup, sandwich, salads (I am getting hooked on their chick pea salad), as well as things like bbq ribs, potato salad, baked beans, and of course all of the wings and other fried and rotisserie chicken. The staff is very friendly and is more than happy to accommodate special requests like tossing the plain chicken fingers in a wing sauce or something.
Publix is usually pretty good in general but this one is one of the better stores in my opinion. I wish i lived closer to it so I could shop them for more than I do. If you work in the same area and need a change of pace on your lunch hour there is no shortage of variety here even if you just stick with the deli. Plus, you will usually come out with better quality food than the usual fast food crap and it is about the same price or cheaper in most cases. I love this store!

Super clean, super bright, everything in order and pretty. I wish I could shop at a store like this all the time!

I LOVE my Publix! The people here are so nice. The store is super clean and even though they messed me up with their recent reshuffle, I love that its easy to navigate. The meat is fresh, and the bread? No other local supermarket can compare to the quality of Publix bread.
I’ve heard people tell me that they shop at the nearby Kroger because they save more money there. So, not wanting to be a fool– I went back to that mess a few weeks ago. I have a few items that I purchase regularly so the prices on these items make a great indicator as to the value I’m getting. The result? They were the same prices at Kroger– and in a few cases, I pay a little less at Publix. The Kroger was such a dirty mess that, frankly, I would pay a few bucks more just to shop at my Publix since it’s such a nicer experience, but now I know that I’m getting the best value as well.

I love Publix and this one is great! Sometimes the bagging isn’t too great, but good deals and way better than Krogers down the street.
