We were looking for a quick stop for a few groceries prior to getting to Orlando. We ended up (accidentally) at this Publix on University of Florida campus. It worked out for us as this was a rather quiet store and had everything we needed to pick up. Plenty of workers that were super friendly and multiple check outs were open to get us in and out as quick as possible. Parking was a little difficult.
This Publix Id say is well kept. Not as stocked or spacious as some of the bigger ones but thats to be expected as its meant as a convenience for university students. Its Publix and we live in Florida so long live chicken tender subs. :D
Small, hence doesnt have everything. Hey, its a Publix. A really, really clean store.
The really good Publix is very busy. But I do not advise you trying to park because you will not find a parking spot and if you are really bored go and get a coffee from Starbucks sit outside and watch the parking drama unfold before you.
Publix Supermarket on University is always the greatest atmosphere the shop I love the workers the people and the customers are one in the same its amazing to have an experience to share that is open and loving and a good atmosphere to keep yourself healthy and happy
I came to Publix for a sub because they have the BEST, not today TJ was so nasty making my sub, he touched everything under the sun and didn’t want to change his gloves and Andy was a little nervous but he was great!
Super convenient location but it is often missing what you need. Also, the employees at this Publix are not nearly as nice as the ones at the surrounding other locations. Still very useful though because of its proximity to campus and a bunch if apartments.
Wife and I went to have a sub and a little shopping enjoy outside dining and came home beautiful day
Publix is always a great grocery store for me to shop at all of there employees seem to be well trained, when I cant find an item, they will stop what they are doing and walk with me to the aisle and show me where it is
Giving you a three.. your affiliation with insta cart does not make you less accountable for order miss haps, etc...I honestly expect more from Publix
Okay, I go to this Publix at least 3 to 4 times a week and there is actually a few employees that always make my day, but today Im going to talk about one! Her name is SHANA! Always greets me with a smile and is so very helpful! Every time! shes like perfect employee! Im there so much and her attitude is amazing every time! You would think that she is the happiest person in the world lol, maybe she is, I dont know! But on a serious note, what an amazing employee! Publix you are lucky to have her! I went up to her the other day and told her that I need a picture of her because I write Google reviews and of course she said yes! So if you ever at the Publix on the corner of 13th and 39th, go say whats up to SHANA 😁...
Easy to find items, smaller store friendly personnel, good experience overall, very organized, very fresh, very perfect period... no complaints.
What can you say its Publix. Theyre always clean, theyre always well stocked and their staff is always friendly, ready and willing to help
Very clean store with a Starbucks inside. Nice touch. PARKING IS AWFUL
Publix is where the cool Kids shop And my pockets are always happy Thanks for being reasonably affordable
Avoid this Publix location if youre concerned about COVID-19 and this current wave of the delta variant. I was just in there today and they are not enforcing the Alachua County Mask Mandate for customers, about half of the customers in there today werent wearing masks.
Its a smaller Publix. It may not have everything the other or larger Publixs may have. Regardless of that, i love this Publix. Nice and clean. The location is key.
Excellent location and store. Unusual shape for a Publix store. Excellent staff
Great Publix, small but nice. Customer service is top of the line.
Don’t plan on their deli food for a lunch break- they have never *once* had a sub I’ve ordered online be ready by the time I’ve ordered it for. The parking lot is also ridiculously small, there seems to have not been any consideration for the volume of customers they should have known a Publix in such a populous location was going to get.
Its not as big as other publixs but just as convenient. It stays clean
I love shopping at Publix they are so helpful with great customer service.
Clean and organized grocery store. Staff was friendly and everyone was wearing masks. Eli at the deli counter was very helpful and cut great thin-sliced roast beef 👍 Tori was our cashier and was very efficient. Thanks for making our 2nd visit pleasant.I wont be able to give 5 stars since products that are available in other stores at lower pricing are slightly more expensive here.Would recommend this place if you dont mind spending a little more for your daily grocery items in a cleaner, friendlier atmosphere.
First and the last time I will shop here, but only because the parking is ridiculous & not convenient!! Not enough spaces for the volume of shoppers. At least 10 cars circling the lot needing a spot when I arrived and after an hour of shopping inside there were even more cars needing spots when I came out. However the customer service at the deli was superb!! This store is the newest Publix in town and is nice and fancy.
Nice and clean publix located super close to UF. Only issue is that parking is a bit of a nightmare.
Great absolutely wonderful store to go to. And their Sushi is so fresh its incredible.
Staff are very helpful and polite. Keep it up!!
Employees working there tries their best to help you and show the place of stuff you are looking for!
It was a quaint little Publix. Although, I was disappointed they did not have any potato chip dip!
Very clean, good selection, excellent service per usual with Publix. My wife wanted Luigis ices and an associate noticed I was new to this location and pointed me in the right direction without asking for assistance.
Great store located in a high population area.
I love this place! There was a very nice gentleman in the deli that help me come up with dinner and did a great job :-)
Cute small grocery store .just right for the student of Florida
I have been a Publix shopper for as long as I can remember. My Father retired from the company. And as far as I’m concerned Publix supermarkets is the standard. I expect, but still amazed, with the idea, and working model, of human imagination, and inspiration, known as Publix.However Mr. Zeb McClendon, of the produce department exceeded Publixs high standards. Where to begin? The professionalism, empathy, discipline, class, and very rare, transparency immediately puts you in awe. As a customer and fellow human being.Someone I care about deeply is going through a rough time, and I was led to the store, to get a bouquet, but nothing quite grabbed my attention for this special moment……… until Mr. McClendon inserted himself into the situation, and decided to create a solution. (Bless him) With all due respect, he created the most amazing bouquet I have ever seen. (It was inspired, by whom, or what, I do not know)I am forever in Mr. McClendon’s Debt, and Publix’s as well. Bravo. BRAVO.
Great sandwich. Tables outside arw good. Parking is limited.
I love Publix, had a Tender sub after my workout and it was phenomenal
It was very busy. We enjoyed walking around exploring the store. You may find some great deals it youre not in a rush. I did.
Safe and easy to get in and out. It is always busu though being a downtown Gainesville/ college campus location.
I like how organized this place is, with variety of options and many promotions and discounts.
Great environment fresh food and friendly staff
Consistently good Publix formulated good for the needs of students.
My go-to place. Needs more expansion considering that students have super diverse needs
Great store. Always eager to help and friendly
Probably the worst publix to get a sub made at. Showed up just after 11am, they only had one person working the sub counter, allegedly everyone else was on break, they didnt have any of the meats or cheeses prepped, and then on top of that didnt even know what went on particular subs. Publix used to be one of the best places to get a sub made but somewhere they dropped the ball. It all starts with management and training or lack there of. Good thing Florida is raising the minimum wage....
Clean, well stocked, and excellent customer service there is nothing to complain, its Publix there id a standard that NO OTHER Marketplace has, that Publix has among all the stores i have ever been in. I am not affiliated with them, never worked there, and I can be a critical reviewer. And still have never had a Publix issue at any location that was not taken care of immediately.
It has extremely nice workers. Also very convenient to where I live
Great new store right off University Ave.
This urban Publix conveniently close to the University of Florida is small footprint store with much of the variety of a larger Publix. Additionally, this Publix has a large dedicated island for prepared food such as sushi and subs. Full and self service checkouts make it easier for a quick trip.The parking lot has motorcycle parking and can be entered from 13th street (US 44) northbound or from the north side of the store.
Quick In and out they even have 4 registers that are self-check outs.
Nice clean store. Parking is almost impossible. Sometimes you just have to sit and wait for a spot. I generally dont have the patience for that and usually just drive to another store.
Broccoli cheddar soup YEEEEET
Expensive....I only go there if I cant find it anywhere else, but they usually have it
Super good customer service and even had banana pudding at 8 am
Always clean, well staffed and stocked. Never any long lines or impolite service. Deli is wonderful. But also never enough parking. Very small lot. More often than not you spend more time waiting & looking for a parking space than actually shopping.
The publix to go to close to campus. This place has just about everything any other publix has and it’s so close to campus. Parking can get very crowded on the weekend and around 6 p.m. but people have to shop. Staff is always nice and the place is always clean. Typical publix experience!
Great service and clean store
Very clean and close to the University. Plenty of parking.
The people at the deli are slow. They were out of turkey at the sub sandwich station. As if they couldn’t cut more from the deli, which is connected. I came at 5pm. Very disappointed in my Publix experience today. Shopping was NOT a pleasure.
A great stop for pub subs. Parking is a bit tough though.
Very friendly and clean. They have all the food you need.
Nice downtown city store. Of course parking is an issue.
I love this publix its the one I always go to
The Starbucks attached is nice, albeit unnecessary. Much bigger on the inside than out too
Clean friendly staff and super fresh food.
Cashiers and employees are courteous and helpful.
A fine supermarket but a BAD publix, baked goods are seriously below quality and many items are not there
Small but very nice.
Super nice associates and really cute little store.
Couldnt find a parking space so never got on the door.
Love this store, mostly for the sandwich shop. The subs are incredible — I would never imagine they came from a big name grocery store. Wish it was present in the Northeast! You can order online and pick up in the store.
Nice people that work there
Good ole Publix, no complaints
Wonderful smaller Publix. Staff is very helpful and the store is very clean. Has a nice deli area and bakery. Well stocked and easy to access from Highway 441/NW 13th street. Adjacent to it is a Starbucks as well. Across the street are various eateries and a small Target and Krispy Kreme.
Worst and slowest subs/sandwiches station i’ve ever been to. No customer service and VERY slow to get to your order. Employees just wasting time and LAZY to making your sandwich. Someone has to get this department right.
Lots of studentsNo maskSmh
Employees are super friendly. Like that they are open early. Highly recommend this location.
A lways polite and responsive staff
No parking, deli out of everything I needed at lunchtime
Flordia be widlin
Excellent customer service and so convenient for my weekly grocery shopping!
ITS OK. PARKING LOT JUST TO SMALL
HORRIBLE parking lot!! Avoid this Publix. Lol
Very clean, staff were nice no complaints
What can you say about Publix high-quality but expensive but if you want good stuff Publix its a place to go
Great store
Great location for grocery store.
Ive shopped at Publix for years when I wanted to and since the mid 1980s! The stores are always clean, the employees are polite and have knowledge of where items are and theres always as variety of items and good prices as well!
Love this store
Well stocked and because of its location generally very busy but the staff is nice and the store is clean.
I already love Publix and despite this one being a little smaller, its also more convenient because of it. Plus they have Starbucks 😁👍
Clean, hospitable and fun to shop in.
Great college grocery!
If you appreciate the Publix experience, this one will disillusion you 👌🏻
Everything is good at Publix
Lots of cute girls
Subs are great very friendly
