This is a great Food Lion. The store has lots of products and is set out well. The prices were right and the store is clean! Checkout was easy and they were so polite. Great Food Lion. read more

I can only imagine how hard it is to work at a tourist destination FoodLion. Everyone I have EVER interacted with have been trying to do a good job. Is this location perfect -- probably not .. but it's our first choice for everything except fresh fish and meat/beef. Once you know what it means to not having to go OTB ... this FoodLion is near perfect. read more

My food was undercooked I had chicken and it felt like I was gonna throw up but my fave

I shopped here for one week for a family of four while visiting Carolina Beach, buying mostly groceries and some essentials.. The store is small with somewhat limited offerings, but it is well organized and clean; the staff is friendly. Great prices on specials, including the local peaches, my favorite -- some of the best peaches I have ever had read more

See all

I've never set foot in the store, since Covid I have done all my shopping online and getting it delivered because of my age and my immunity problems. Everything I have received has been totally fine, including the produce and the meats. The delivery service is wonderful and arrives within the time specified. I especially like the fact that I can order beer or wine along with my regular groceries. I have noticed that the prices at the Food Lion are better than Publix that I have been shopping with prior to this. When my sister visits she shops at the Food Lion and never mentioned any negative conditions about the store. She even mentioned that they carry nations promise, and organic foods like they do in her favorite store in Baltimore, the giant. The giant is similar to Stop & Shop in New Jersey. which I shopped and used Pea Pod their delivery program read more

Always look forward to seeing Susan over in the deli when we shop here. She is truly customer focused! We feel she an great asset to your business. So kind and helpful. Please thank her for us! read more

Haven't been to a food lion in quite sometime. Went in here to pick up some items for the hotel and they had everything I wanted...even headphones. Selection of the items I bought was limited, but the staff was friendly and the price was right. read more

It is a grocery store and they do a good job keeping it stocked and staffed. In the summer months it is insane and hard to find an open lane but it is open 24 hours during those months which is a positive. Because it is busy the meat and produce is usually fresh which I like and the staff is usually helpful and nice. Just beware of the parking lot, drivers are crazy, rude and inconsiderate... read more

I've lived here 21 years and i've never have had a good experience here. I came on Oct. 16 2022 at 8:00 and the tall skinny white male that was working was so rude and has been every time i've come in contact with him. No one ever talks or smiles, they just scan and move on about your day. Would go to carolina beach road foodlion before this one. read more

This is a very good Food Lion. Very well run. Clean and well stocked. Friendly customer service. It has to be difficult to keep up the stock in a tourist town. I recommend this grocery store to whom ever is visiting. read more

This store seems like a dungeon at times. I went in last week in the middle of the day and many of the overhead lights are out. The produce and meat departments are very small with limited selection. I wish they would brighten the place up and expand the store by renting out additional space next to them and expand the meat department by having a butcher, fresh seafood and larger produce area. I typically go to Harris Teeter to do my "major" shopping and only go to Food lion for something forgot or need very quickly. Unless they do something the Publix grocery store will really hurt them. I personally can't wait for Publix to open. read more

It's a Food Lion, but like a grungier, sadder Food Lion. I'm always disappointed by Food Lion's "produce". Take the drive to the Teeter across the bridge-trust me. read more

No one requiring masks be worn by customers. More than 50% have no masks. Person at cash register said management does not want to address it. Time to shop elsewhere. read more

My dad and I are visiting for a week and we had the pleasure to meet one of the best cashiers. Jay had the best customer service we have ever gotten, whoever hired that kid shouldn't regret it. He's amazing! Thank you Jay read more

This is equivalent to the offspring of Cub Foods and Kroger. Clerks were friendly... and overall, it was an average grocery store. read more

Great store! The food is always fresh and the prices are great. I always shop here instead of high priced grocers that sell the same products. read more

If people can not wear a mask, they have the option of delivery or curbside service. But no...that is not enough for some of them. They insist on asserting their "right" to endanger the lives of others and Food Lion management is apparently fine with that. Called to complain and received the standard BS response. Also, employees had their masks below their noses this a.m. They have the option of asking for local law enforcement to assist with compliance but they don't care. I'm done. Gave them a chance but Publix feels much safer. read more

I've lived here many years and this food Lion is like a dungeon like a few of the other people have already said. It's always a zoo and there are never enough lines open. There are 3 or 4 of the cashiers that I avoid like the plague. Rude, rude, and ruder! Last week I was getting ready to check out and two lanes were open. Ridiculous. One lane was packed and the express lane had nobody. I had 10 things but I had a big cart. I started going up to the express lane and before I could get to her she yells at me in a nasty tone and said "This is the express Lane." I said great I have 10 items. She then rolls her eyes at me and is rude. I said even if I had 20 you're standing here doing nothing you should check some people out too instead of just being lazy and rude. I have gone to Food Lion for 20 plus years but I'm now a Publix's customer and a Harris Teeter girl as well. Many people thing Publix's is expensive but they have great specials and you don't need a special card. Everybody gets the specialsThere entire staff are kind and helpful. It's so nice going there. Not to mention they carry your groceries to your car even if it's just 1 bag. Food Lion you need to get your store out of the 80's and remodel it. Then fire just about everyone there and get people who can act human. I never hear anything good about this Food Lion anymore. read more

Now, keep in mind I'm reviewing a Food Lion...in Carolina Beach. So, the standards are not high. However, this is probably the nicest Food Lion that I've even been into. It's pretty new, maybe 4 or 5 years old. Now that I'm so far away from everything else this is my only option unless I want to leave the island. I was extremely surprised by the produce in this store. Not the biggest selection I've ever seen, but the set-up was almost like a Harris Teeter. Fun wooden bins on the walls and everything. I would actually eat most of the fresh fruit and vegetables that came out of this store. As opposed to some Food Lions that I know of...not mentioning names. Well organized, friendly people, fresh food. All very good qualities in a store that I will sometimes visit 4 times in one day...what a saturday that was. read more

This store should not get a rating at all but this review requires you to put at least one star. Nothing but a cluster of unhelpful employees. Cashier held me up for more than 5 minutes trying to ring up 3 plums. 3 Plums!!! Really!! Here's a hint cashier lady. The produce number is located on the sticker that was on...the...fruit. read more

This place is a mad house during the day. Every checkout line has about 5-6 people in it at all times. You'd think it was the only grocery store in the area. I thought maybe it was just bad timing but I visited this food lion 4 different times. If you go after 7:30pm or before 10am it's not that bad. Anytime in between those times and you'll be there awhile. The clerks do their best to get everyone through quickly. read more

Always do our grocery shopping first thing here when we come to town! Very convenient!
