Shopping at Lowes Foods is more like going to a neighborhood market with their staff that is welcoming, helpful, and ready to help. Great community programs, like wine nights ๐Ÿคฃ ... Who doesnt need that! When you catch sales you can find some great deals along with having the best products that other stores dont carry.

Blows every other market Ive ever been to... and Ive traveled from coast to coast. Its a little more expensive, but well worth what you get. I believe it even outshines Whole Foods The selection of unique products and service from there outstanding employees Wil always set them apart from the rest. Kudos to the Owner and Staff for making this establishment...The Best of the Best! ๐Ÿ’ฏ

I do like this store except they donโ€™t have certain products I buy regularly and I have to make I trip to another store for them which is fine. However, what I canโ€™t get over is the fact when I shop I purposely shop and divide my products in my cart to make bagging easier (dry with dry, cans with cans, cold with cold, etc). Well it never fails the cashier will just grab whatever then the baggers donโ€™t know how to bag as every time they will but my bread with a can or I even got chicken put with produce. Youโ€™re better off bagging your groceries yourself. This last time the bagger but my bread in with cans and then put in the the cart and put another bag on top of it. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ itโ€™s not rocket science but these kids just donโ€™t care.

We normally visit the local Loweโ€™s and have a couple guys in Meat that know us by name that sell us meat scraps so we can feed our boyโ€”they are the BEST! Extremely personable and accommodating! However, I was not impressed in the slightest of the woman we had tonight. Not only did she charge us $1.20 MORE per a pound for SCRAPS but was also rude! We went in @ 3 on a Saturday, which isnโ€™t extremely late. Not impressed.

Horrible, I ordered a 2 piece chicken meal. The chicken was very dry and I could not chew it. The mashed potatoes were brown and old. The mac and cheese was gummy and cold. I was asked by the girl behind the counter to remove my mask because she couldnt understand me. She asked if I wanted a roll or corn bread. I opted for the roll and she gave me corn bread( in which I hate) but I didnt notice until I got home. I will never eat here again. My friens told me they have great chicken. I guess we have different tastes or I hit them at the wrong time. ๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคฎ

Just love this grocery store. The produce is always fresh. I love their baked goods too. Near the restrooms, are their sale items. $5 Sushi on Wednesdays is such a treat. My kiddos love their Chicken Littles and I love the price. Their beer options are the best ive seen in town. That section has a nice young lady (Alyssa) who was super sweet and helpful with the beer suggestions. Thanks!

My favorite grocery store in Jacksonville. You can find just about everything here. Best fresh produce department in town.Bakery has tons to choose from.Not to mention they have a smokehouse in the back and they dont mess around. Bacon, chicken, pork, and beef. Ive tried them all and they are all amazing. Honestly the best smoke in town. Did I mention they make their own line of sausages there too. I recommend all 12 flavors.For the microbrewery fans, you can buy some ๐Ÿบ from the beer and wine bar. Selections change often. Always something new to try. This is how grocery shopping should be.

Review โ„–21

This is my favorite grocery store in town because of the fresh fruits and vegetables, bakery and specialty items.I purchased oranges and strawberries and when I got home I realized they were spoiled at the bottom. I returned to Loweโ€™s Food the next day for a refund and the store associate informed me of the 200% freshness guarantee. Not only did I receive my full refund in cash, I also received a gift card for the cost of the fruit. I was shocked but grateful to receive such amazing service for my inconvenience. Iโ€™m aware that perishables do spoil, and Loweโ€™s Food has once again impressed me with their customer service.

Staff is always friendly. You can have special foods like Irish Porter Cheddar ordered to the store at the customer service counter. Makes for some epic Mac & Cheese when paired with their other imported cheeses & pastas. The bakery, or Cakery, has great Tiramisu & Cannoli. The deli has amazing meats & premade foods. The Sausage Works/seafood area have great crab legs, sausages, spices, & sauces. The beer den offers free samples for whatever they have on tap and will try to order whatever you want if it isnt available in store.

Im changing my rating from a 3 to a 5 and here is why:When I explained my experience, not only did Mr. Scott (the GM) offer to make it right, Mr. James (The Fresh Manager) offered to as well. Both Managers and their teams kept in contact with me, and they are standing by their Customer Service and Fresh Food promise.This is an awesome team, let me tell you. What a way to turn an experience around! โค

This is probably one of the best grocery stores around, if not the best. They have a huge variety of items, including hard to find items. The store is always very clean and well stocked/ organized. The meats are great, as well as the fish, fruits and veggies. It is a little pricier than some grocery stores, but the quality of the produce and meats is way beyond that of ANY grocery store around here.

The meat department here is always the best meat in the area. If they dont have it out, theyll cut you a piece.The only reason I didnt give this 5 stars is because the Hispanic section is very sparse.

Nice selection, well stocked, a little higher end feel than food lion and Walmartโ€™s but still has reasonable prices. Pride them self on local stuff like pet dairy milk, Burgaw blueberries and especially focusing on craft beers from local breweries.The parking lot sucks and is hard to get on gum branch at times.

The selection of beer was phenomenal, and the guy that just closed up the beer den was very friendly and offered some great recommendations. Checking out was another story, I dont know what it was but the cashier whos name started with Pam was a... well... quite rude in my opinion. Then I looked at the receipt and had to go back in to try to find something, anything, that said the lip balm I purchased was supposed to cost $3.75, I guess I should expect bullshit prices on everything in the store anyways. Ill still go back for beer and bread though.

I actually enjoy grocery shopping, but shopping here is a pleasant experience. The produce is good and generally fresh, the butchers are knowledgeable and helpful with a suggestion, and all the employees are friendly. More importantly the lines are rarely more than one person ahead of you and they have great s-evil the counters besides the usual deli and bakery. They smoke their own meats on-site including awesome sushi selections, have a sushi counter and chicken (rotisserie and fried plus tasty sides). Itโ€™s a good place to shop. The prices are not as cheap as other stores, but I think itโ€™s worth it.

Absolutely love this place if you shop by their sales. With that said, nice salad bar, great store sushi, fabulous small bakery. The bakery has something for everyone and you can get it by the slice in most cases. They also have an olive bar and huge cheese selection. Wine selection is one of the best I have shopped at in this area. Their produce section is the best for actually having fresh fruit and vegetables that are ripe and ready to eat.

I always enjoy coming into Lowes. My 4yo has a fabulous time driving around the kiddo shopping carts. It always ends up being a more expensive trip but I love coming into a grocery store that has a broad selection of food and just being able to explore and discover something new and interesting I can try. I can also count on lowes to have any specialty items needed for recipes that most grocery stores may have only one product stocked of if any. Several times this year we have used grocery pickup as well and very much enjoy the ease of pulling up and having our groceries loaded in (some days the idea of taking littles into the grocery store with you is just not at the top of your fun things to do list).*Hello oysters! Had dinner with friends after months of craving oysters I finally picked some up to share (hubby doesnt eat them but our friends do so decision made) picked up 20 oysters and a shucking knife and hoped for a good pick! Luckily, our friends had shucked oysters before and had some accompaniments yo top them. Lowes for the win! I hadnt had oysters in a few years and they exceeded my expectations! โค

It is a pretty store. You are paying more money for the way the store looks. Items here cost more for the same exact thing somewhere else. In my opinion not worth wasting your money unless you live very close. In that case, this place is more like a fancy gas station without the gas.
