I was hesitant to start shopping at Lowes Foods because quite frankly, I didn't know what it was all about. You see, I grew up shopping at Food Lion and Harris Teeter and my first job was as a cashier for Bi-Lo. Lowe's Foods is totally new to me.
One day last year, I took the plunge and walked on in. I am totally in love now. They've got a great Produce selection, an awesome array of NC dehydrated snacks such as Veggie chips and various nuts, pretzels. They have a decent selection from their deli and are one of the few places in Concord/Harrisburg that sells Boars Head meats. They offer a Salad bar daily as well as various loaves of fresh baked Gourmet breads. I frequently stop in on my commute to work and pick up a sub and bag of Utz chips for lunch for under 5 bucks.
If you are anything like me and venture off the grid with your grocery list searching for gluten free items and out of the norm. grains then you'll love their selection. They carry most of the Bob's Red Mill items as well as Full Circle Organic. They have the best selection of Cage Free, Organic or Humanely raised chicken eggs.
Lowe's Foods also offers their Lowe's to Go ordering in which you can order online before 3 p.m. and they'll have your order ready for you by a set time. I recently used this amenity and I will be doing this more often. It was a great convenience, especially on a Friday when you just don't want to deal with the lines and people. Like most other stores they offer a discount gas card which you can use at Wilco and Hess gas stations.
I've never really loved a grocery store before but I love my Lowe's Foods. I hope they never close this one down.
