We stopped by for a few things (water, cherries @ $2.49/b.) here last night, after dinner. My FIL and his wife live in the area. Surprisingly, even less shopped than our regular neighborhood Albertson's store (not many other customers, a handful maybe). The parking lot crowd looked deceiving because, it seemed like there were more customers inside.
Upon entering, carts are on your left, as well as purell station. The lounge for coffee patrons (couches) is to your immediate right, deli is to the left, Starbucks is in front of you, I think the pharmacy is around the corner from there. The produce section is past the deli, left side/wall of the store. Right after the produce section, is the Bakery section, followed by the Meat department- noone was there to assist (smells funny, like a mix of meat and counter cleaner, yuck), with the Milk/Dairy section at the right corner back side of the store. Aisles are in the middle of the store, but we only went to one aisle. Right side of the store is two frozen aisles (frozen Lumpia but no Filipino ice cream selection- Magnolia, like the Albertson's store in our neighborhood). Coming to the front are, the cashiers, as well as the Self-Serve ones. In front of the cashiers are the Customer Service center and bank.
I didn't notice too many employees on the floor, just the cashiers in front. Since there were just a few customers, we didn't wait too long to get through the line. The store is clean, though, free of debris and aisles were not cluttered with boxes (like at Wal-Mart, late at night, when they restock everything). Looks a little dated, the set-up is similar to the one at Charleston/Sloan (the one in my MIL's neighborhood); could use an update/remodel.
If you're getting a few things here, it's nice because it's not super crowded, but then again, it was a sunday night, too.
