I'd been dying to check out this grocery store chain for ages. When I saw there was one near where I was vacationing, I decided to drive over and check it out. It's just a regular grocery store and nothing to write home about (or to write a glowing review of either). It was just, meh. I simple do not know why people go on and on about this chain. My home town Publix is considerably better stocked. If you're coming from Banner Elk, save yourself the time and just go to Food Lion.
I have always shopped at Lowe's Foods for the past 10 years or more. I have, on occasion, asked the store manager to stock a particular item and he has done so for me! It's nice that someone listens and responds! The store is very clean, great meat dept. as well as fresh produceall very good quality. The personnel are always friendly and go out if their way to be helpful. I shop exclusively at Lowe's and intend to continue to do so as long as I live in this area. Definitely FIVE STARS!!
On the Saturday morning before Thanksgiving, they only had two regular check out lines open and one express line open. Long wait to check out. Then the cashier didn't have enough cash in her drawer to give change. Had to go to customer service desk to get correct change. Customer service person was working the express lane and had to wait until he was free. Not a good experience on what management should have known was going to be a busy shopping day.
Great grocery storeWe stock up here on supplies when we make it to the mountains. Prices are fair. There is a little "pub" in the grocery store where you can sample some craft brews (and shop while you sample!!). Great service.
We are visiting from AZ and noticed the Store and Staff were very nice and helpful and the store very clean and well laid out. We do think the prices are 20% too high. We realize that 2,oooooops miles do make a difference. Thanks for a pleasant visit and thanks for having Staff like Ty and his helper. (6:00 PM. 10 13 17) God Bless You All Richly. ~:o)
This is an excellent food shopping experience in a small mountain town setting. The produce, fish and meat departments are on par with the rest of this superb chain. We are Lowe's shoppers from the Raleigh area, so, we are accustomed to the store layout. The checkout was speedy and accurate.
Very clean inside and well stacked. The staffs are very attentive and helpful. This place is a bit expensive than the regular grocery stores. On the other, here you'll able to find unusual merchandises.
This store has always been great to visit, but my last trip put itbover the top. The butcher had the most amazing ribeyes and filers, none less than 2 inches thick! They were greatly enjoyed by the family. The rest of the store is always clean and the staff is courteous. I can't wait to visit the one they have built near my home now!
They have EVERYTHING a huge green-grocer, dozens of isles, decent deli.
Very nice grocery store. Great beer and wine selection.
Little pricey. Staff is helpful. Produce is always great.
Nice selection and variety of specialty foods I can't find at some of the other stores in the area. A bit pricey at times though.
Clean and a decent beer selection. Beer on tap was good while shopping
