First off, they have just about everything you can imagine in this store. I especially like their boxed sushi, which is inexpensive and tasty. They have a hot foods section that blends into their deli and bakery, so you can quiet easily grab a fast bite for lunch and race out through the self-checkouts if youre on a tight schedule. They have a very good salad bar, too. There are some conveniently located coolers with various drink choices for the grab-n-go lunch options. They have a Starbucks :) Flowers if youre last minute (second?) on important calendar dates...like me. They have a very decent selection of meats and, if you dont happen to see what you want, by all means, ask at the counter. They probably have it in the back. My only less than great experience was when I ordered a 4-bone rib roast and failed to ask them to tie it and cut it away from the bone, which I thought would be obvious, but apparently not. Not a big deal, but a bit annoying that they didnt ask me when buying a $100+ piece of meat. They were (very) busy and I attribute it to one persons individual laziness and not the store itself, but a store is little more than a lot of products and its staff. The staff, as I have said over and over in my lifetime, make the shopping experience (or not). A piece of beef or a loaf of bread can do very little without a solid and fantastic staff stocking, fronting and yes, offering to go that extra little bit to make the experience great for the customer. Thats truly what customer service is all about. 99.5% of the time, I find that this stores staff are on top of their games and that they deliver excellent service. They have a lot of sites throughout the store where you can sample different products and these make the experience a lot of fun amidst the more mundane picking up of paper products for the home. The parking lot can be a bit crowded, particularly on big weekend days or around holidays, which makes the experience a bit of a pain. A seasoned veteran of Kroger shopping will look to the monitors to see which checkout lanes are open/moving. The fuel points are a fantastic deal, or at least so it seems. Sometimes they offer 4x fuel points on gift cards. I recently paid 21.99¢ per gallon for gas at a Kroger. Imagine filling up your nearly empty gas tank for under $5!

It is with deep regret that I write a note such as this. This Kroger has denied our United States Military Veterans a place to sell their memorial poppies, a practice that has been long standing in our community.The tiny poppies have a long history. They are made by hand by our veterans, and offered in exchange for contributions around the Memorial Day holiday. Instead of allowing United States Veterans to offer the poppies, Kroger has instead given permission to three groups. The Salvation Army, the Girl Scouts, and the Boy Scouts. I am particularly angry about the scouts being permitted to sell their way overpriced cookies and popcorn there. Perhaps Kroger harbors ill feelings about the Vietnam War, or some other military operation. Perhaps Kroger cannot see that it is these very men and women, in our military,who have brought to every one of us the extraordinary freedoms we enjoy today. Without the Veterans, Kroger may not even be in business. The boy and girl scouts not free to enjoy their groups, and the Salvation Army may not even exist if it were not for veterans. This is a reckless move on the part of Kroger who has certainly enjoyed the benefits of high sales over the Memorial Day weekends of the past. Their sales are based on this holiday which, ironically honors the fallen military. It is a shame. One that I cannot overlook. My family has served in every war in this country beginning with the Revolutionary War. My father, uncles, grandfathers, great grandfathers, friends and classmates fought hard for this freedom. Now, Kroger turns their back to the United States Military, who simply want to offer their poppies in hopes of a contribution from people like me. I have bought them every year since I was a child. I will not give Kroger my business on this holiday weekend. No. They have done a shameful thing. I regret their decision greatly, and will respond the best way I know how.That is shopping elsewhere. This wound goes deep, Kroger. You have insulted every American Veteran.

I cannot say enough nice things about the pharmacy at this Krogers location. I used Walgreens for 30 years of my life for my prescriptions and the Harrison Walgreens is horrible. But I am a creature of habit -it was difficult for me to change after all those years to a new Pharmacy. I have never ever regretted changing to Krogers Pharmacy. They are always friendly... They are always prompt and as quick as possible... And in the eight or nine years I have use the pharmacy they have probably made two mistakes. Now they are busy but thats because theyre good. I feel like its worth the wait to get great excellent service. Now the employees in the rest of the store at this Krogers are not as great and perfect as the pharmacy people LOL. One thing that bothers me is out of maybe 20 times in the past five to six years of asking an employee where something is... Maybe two to three of those times the employee was able to help me.

I as well came in late at night shopping and this old greasy headed long haired snagged tooth woman tried to give me crap over coupons!! She yelled over top of me talking to a co worker and wouldnt let me speak!! She shouldnt be working there if she says they can not be used when it clearly states what the item is for!! Im quite sure this is the same woman the person who left the review under me was talking about!! She has long greasy hair, wears glasses, half teeth missing and wears skirts if that helps you figure out who she is!!

One of the big perks of Harrison is the amazing Kroger- they always have quality food stocked, and probably the most courteous employees Ive ever encountered in a Kroger. There are wine tastings on Fridays, almost always cheese samples out around the international cheese space, and freshly made salads, meals, desserts, and sushi. Along with the home goods area of the store, Harrison Kroger really is a one-stop shop. Super convenient, easily accessible, and fun to visit.

The parking lot is small. The Kroger brand bread this store carries is always stale. The carry baskets the male bachelors use are always located at the self checkout lines and not back at the front doors to the place. The Kroger gas station at the front of the parking lot is always crowded by people trying to save their 10 cents off a gallon. The prices at this store are obviously higher than what you will find at Walmart.

Product I normally buy missing, Private Selection Brie. Asked representative in Cheese Dept and she told me that they never carried it and I should look in other departments. I told her Ive bought in the cheese dept for years. She then said I would have to wait while she did another task.
