A very well managed Food Lion—best grocery shopping experience you’ll find in Ahoskie (compared to two competitors).
Though modestly staffed, I will say these folks work as a team—as I see a good amount of employees looking out for one another, which translates into a good customer experience in the end.
The manager (or at least who I deem is the manager) is often-present, and can be often seen walking the aisles greeting customers and talking with employees—and has a very good attitude. —again, translates to employees and ultimately to customers.
Registers are always quick, and they don’t wait to open more during a rush, which is appreciated.
My only critique is the produce section could be a little more robust. —but it’s not just this store that has a wanting produce section and I believe Ahoskie is a ‘last in line’ stop for deliveries as most produce in the area always seems to have a rough around the edges appearance. —it’s definitely NOT a symptom of management but supply chain and proximity (I believe).
Of all the places available for groceries in Ahoskie, I’d recommend this store above all others.
Beat the crowds by shopping between 7-9 AM…and for the widest selection of freshly shelved items.
Nice work Food Lion of Ahoskie….you're a cut above in service, atmosphere, staff morale, professionalism,...
Read moreI like this store better than the one closer to where I live in Murfreesboro. This store is cleaner, brighter and the employees are more friendly. Not that the employees are bad or mean at the one I Murfreesboro it's just a totally different atmosphere in Ahoskie. It also seems like the Ahoskie store is better stocked most of the time. There's times I goto Ahoskie and the meats that are on sale are sold out but I always find what I'm looking for, for the most part. I just like the Ahoskie store better, and I don't mind having to...
Read moreThe cart people and the deli people are so very nice. However, several times the cashiers have been extremely rude, specifically one in particular. I try to avoid her line because she throws the groceries around, is rude, and barely acknowledges your existence. It has happened more than once, so now I will just take my business to Suffolk. Sad because others warned me about this Food Lion but I've always been able to just ignore rudeness and unpleasantness. I shouldn't have to continue to ignore...
