The key to surviving this Harris Teeter: go on a week day or afternoon at an off peak time. I enjoy grocery shopping at 10am.
This location is my neighborhood Teeter. The parking lot can get absolutely slammed. I often find myself trying to find a spot on the back street behind the lot. So, pack some patience here. If you want to skip all of that hassle, order your groceries online and pick up in the ExpressLane.
I always tell everyone the same thing about grocery stores, you know what you buy every week. So, the right store for you may not be the right store for me. It's not all one size fits all. I scope the weekly ad (make sure you have a VIC card), that's how I usually meal plan when it comes to proteins. Everyone who works the meat and seafood counter is really friendly.
They do have a pharmacy, Starbucks, and a nice prepared foods section (salad bar, pizza bar, Asian bar, etc). They also have a nice wine and beer selection. You can usually find someone there sampling as well. Shopping and samples of alcohol make everything better.
