Food Lion

Two stars are only because I've been here in the past and it was (ok + or -) but a few days ago they posted (cash only) on some poorly hung signs on the front power sliding doors. So I went off previous experiences and the cash-only sign. Yes. No longer cash only, and the front entry was clean. The only issue was the items I went in for were out of. (Much better) It looks like someone power washed the front, including the letters. Wow! Inside also looked different (good different). Someone even came up to me and asked- Is there anything I can help you with?- It's impressive, and I learned something new about what they recycle. Refer to photo 📸. I think they, no :I know they deserve five ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ most improved! Still looking good. Today, they even had Blue-Bell's *Christmas 🎄 cookie* ice cream in stock. If you haven't tried Christmas cookie or Bridle cake flavors I would definitely 😁 recommend you do.

Donna makes shopping here a great place. She is always polite, Happy, smiling, such a great person. I make sure I always shop when she is there. She deserves a raise!

Always clean. Easy parking. Parking lot is clean also. Very good prices on meat. AND they have people that will cut what you want. Can't go wrong using this store.

All the Food Lions in Carteret Co are pretty good and also very clean (they all have restrooms and handicap parking as well).

This place always makes me feel at home. I love the fact that the employees actually take the time to get to know you. That makes a huge difference in where you go. I feel like I am walking into a building full of my friends every time I go. The prices are also phenomenal. We can't resist a BOGO day.

Stocked up on Millamook day before Halloween 21. I'm impressed with the stock compared to Walmart
Been taking my business here along with friends and family.

Amazing friendly cashiers.
I'm Hella impressed with what's been done.

Great store, friendly people. Just about a one stop shop.

If your local store is out of products, check here. They will probably have it

Great place to shop for your groceries. Super great Produce dept, everything is clean, fresh and appealing looking. The meat dept is really good, everything there is fresh looking also. The deli and bakery is clean, well stocked and very organized. The groceries area is just as impressive. The store overall is very clean and well organized. The staff are very professional, friendly and helpful. Especially Donna, George, Tony and Emily they always go the extra mile to make you feel like a valued customer.They have men and women restrooms that are clean and orderly. Handicap parking and access. They also have a reserved Veteran parking spot.

Awesome employees!
Donna and Tot are among those who go above and beyond to make shopping a pleasant experience!
Store is very clean and well stocked. Prices are competitive.
Grounds are well maintained; well lit for evening shopping.
A nice change from Wal-Mart 😘

All the employees are very friendly and will help you find whatever you are looking for. The cashiers are wonderful and don't rush you with your order on checking out. I will go here any day for my grocery needs over walmart even tho some of their items might cost alittle more.

Great place to find what you can't find at another syore.

I love grocery shopping here! The cashiers and managers are all nice and helpful. Hey they even ask how your doing and if you've found everything you needed. I really enjoy shopping here. They have great prices and great staff! 👍

Everyone working here is friendly! The environment is so warm and inviting just because of them. It's my go-to store to shop 💗

Very pleasant workers, clean store lots of inventory so good selection of food and "other" items. Great store all around! 👍🏼

I love food Lion and there produce is amazing and Fresh

Nice job to the management and employees of this beautifully kept store! Produce was amazing, stock and full and nicely displayed, store was spotless and service at the deli and checkout were top notch!! Highly recommend!

I wish they'd stop asking me if I need help.
I have bad anxiety. I come in, it's a tiny store. I have a list or I'm hungry. I don't need the same lady to repeatedly ask me if I need help, while following me and stocking shelves behind me every 5 feet.

No Sally Sue, I don't need help. I need you to leave me the heck alone so I can get my shopping done.

Otherwise during busy holidays they can be super busy and not have enough registers open.
But I'd rather shop here than Walmart to be honest.

Always the best produce around. Friendly and helpful staff. This store usually has everything I need for meal plans.

It was great. Store was clean. Store associates were very friendly and helpful. We got some great buys. Eggs were on sale. Fruit looked good, especially the strawberries, blueberries and nectarines.
We purchased those items as well as some Deli meats and cheese.
