The staff is always helpful and shelves are always stocked. There's nothing more you can ask for from a grocery store. Never too busy. This location doesn't have a lot of the healthier options that other Krogers have in the area - but if you want the best bagel in town...get to Kroger early and try one of their cheese covered bagels. AMAZING. You wouldn't think a grocery store could crank out a decent bagel or doughnut...but these guys do it! read more

As a grocery store, I like Kroger's. Decent prices most of the time. I do have a complaint, and it looks like it's going to be at every store. Service is ok and some employees there do care and say hello. It's always clean. It's usually not that busy during the times I go. Kroger's has been one of my convenient lunch and breakfast places, and it looks like the bakery has been replaced with other market foods. I loved the bagels and donuts they used to have, and it is always a treat for me along with an Arizona, Palmer's iced tea, or an energy drink. They replaced the bagels with Einstein bagels, and donuts seem to be Knapp donuts. I loathe both brands, and I am very much bummed by this change. I stop here at several locations because my job is all over the three metro counties. I will skip it from now on and currently out looking for a new bagel joint all over the place. I think Kroger made a mistake. read more

DON'T Go to this Kroger!!!!! Simply terrible and the management NEVER NEVER NEVER reacts to my feedback. Tonight the manager agreed with me that his store is pathetic. How does that makes us, their customers, feel? Just go to Meijers. read more

My experience was horrible! I found one of the employees, named Caiden Bonzerra, eating sushi in the bathroom. When I asked him what he was doing, he cussed me out. read more

There are some cranky people reviewing the Orion township Kroger on Baldwin Road. Yes, occasionally they run short of items, especially when items are on sale. It's a smaller store with many newbies moving into the area that happens. Have shopped there for years. Staff has always been polite, helpful. Mike in veggies aisle is one of the nicest people you could ever meet. Every time I have requested assistance, employees have been helpful and resolved my questions. Self checkout is convenient, has glitches but someone is always ready to help. Have shopped in slow and peak times, good service all around. What I especially like about this Kroger is the neighborly atmosphere. There are several much larger Kroger's in the area and I am not impressed. The Silverbell road, Sashabaw, Dixie Hwy Krogers are crowded, rude customers, and nobody knows how to drive politely in those parking lots. I don't purchase meats at Kroger, too many recalls, but that's not the fault of the staff. If the cranky people want a fancy butler service store with more than the basics, they are welcome to drive to Rochester and Bloomfield Hills, and leave this Kroger to the locals. read more

One of the worst major chain grocery stores. Customer service is an afterthought. Shelves are empty a lot. I am told by employees to that because they are a smaller store they don't get items. I have to go out of my way to others major chains to get what I need. Don't expect to find items that are on sale to be in stock many times. Go elsewhere for lottery as they close " customer service " and lottery machine at 7:35 pm read more

This is the worst run Kroger ever. The manger is clueless and the self checkout is horrible. Avoid at all cost

If you think you're getting a deal on T-bone steaks, think again. Bought a three pack today. The top one was whole, the two were completely missing the tenderloin. They were packaged to conceal that fact. My husband says this is a common practice for them with all packaged meat, so buyer beware. read more

DON'T shop at this Kroger: 1. Frequently items are not stocked 2. Limited selection of some items compared to other large grocery stores 3. RARELY enough lanes open to check out 4. Bottle returns? Is that a joke? Absolutely PATHETIC. Never open, even with reduced hours. Spoke to several managers, they just don't care. read more

Mike H was at the self checkout and was a jerk. He is just too slow to work that job and needs to be replaced. In a friendly gesture I said, "You're building quite a line back there." His response was, "That's ok, I'm here till 11 (pm)." read more

My cashier was very kind today! She joked around with me even though she let it slip she hadn't gotten her scheduled break and was tired. I appreciated her kindness. read more

Went to buy two pack of sirloin steak on Sunday because it's a nice day for grilling. From the outside the steak was red like it's new steaks but right under the first steak it was starting to rod so I just threw it out. Never shop the Kroger on Baldwin Rd and Waldon Rd again. Should have return the meat but wasn't going to waste 15 mins for $10. read more

Every single time I stop in this place they are out of one or more of the things I came to get in the first place. To say it is irritating at this point would be an understatement. This is not an occasional issue. This is a daily occurrence. The only reason I shop here is out of convenience. I will say the employees there are very good. Always friendly. It's not their fault they don't keep enough of their products stocked and on the shelves. read more

This Kroger is is not very good. Empty shelves, deli people never around. Terrible service at the deli. I have waited numerous times for 1/2 hour when only one person in front of me. Sometimes no one is ever there at all and apparently no one else in the whole can work the deli. Sad read more

I've never had a problem with Krogers. Fruit is always fresh no problems with meat or anything else at the Sashabaw store. I have also shopped Lake Orion store and never had a problem or the one on Baldwin. read more

I cannot stand using the store. I end up here because it's close to my house and then remember how bad the store is. I just left after another disappointing shopping trip and I can't believe people take so little pride in their jobs. There was very few options for boneless breast of chicken and minimal stock for the milk variations. As I checked out I watched the clerk scanning my food wipe her nose with her hand several times and had to remind her to please not place my produce on my raw meats. I'm going to have to make the effort to go to Meijer and stay out of this store. Basic sanitation issues are a deal breaker for me. read more

The Kroger in Lake Orion MI, on Lapeer Rd has an employee named Eric assigned to the produce section. He is phenomenal! He actually teaches customers as he works. He'll tell you about where produce is from, how to determine freshness, when produce is expected to come in, and how to get the quantity that is best for your needs. He tells you what's on sale and walks you over to it. He even showed me the "rubbing the sprinkled produce" trick for opening the plastic bags. Terrific guy! Kroger is lucky to have him, and so are it's customers. The Jewell family read more

I want to like this place because I literally go here weekly but I have about run out of patience for this store. 1) Produce is hit or miss in terms of being in stock and fresh. 2) Many items are frequently out of stock - seems like they only get shipments delivered once per week. 3) Staff restocking shelves or cleaning the store are at times rude - sometimes not moving out of the way of shoppers. Also why not restock shelves during off times (early morning/late evening)? 4) Not enough baggers. 75% of the time I have to bag my own groceries. Just last week I was bagging my own groceries and watched 2-3 staff just standing around talking to cashiers. Unacceptable! If this keeps up, I am changing stores or chains altogether. read more

Do not waste your time at this kroger. The store is an absolute mess. The managers and employees are beyond incompetent, the service is extremely slow and nobody seems to care to fix it. There are plenty of other Kroger's in the area that put this one to shame. read more

If it wasn't for the great pharmacy staff, I would never go to this Kroger. Deli staff are unattentive. Produce is hit and miss. Common items often not on shelves. Baggers are rarely available. There used to be one friendly and helpful cashier, but she's been missing for a while now. read more

Overall, I do like the store but there's been a handful of times that the meat department is selling spoiled meat. I bought 2 packs of ground pork and stored it away in the freezer, like I always do, until I'm ready to use it. Last week I took one pack out to cook and it stunk up the house! Granted my sense of smell was not good that day and I eventually was able to smell it after cooking it. So I tossed my meal out. I figured it was just that pack. But today, I took the other pack out. This time I smelled the meat and you can tell how foul the pork smelled! It is pretty horrible! You are my to go store but after this experience, I cannot trust this store anymore. read more

Only 2 checkouts opened lines back to the aisles and I waited 10 minutes at the meat counter with no one there. Please any other grocery open up in lake orion please open read more

Would be a great store ..but lanes are very slow moving or never open and same with the customer service lane. read more

Great neighborhood store. The cashiers are so friendly and nice! The baggers do a great job too! The floral department is great every time I need a quick gift. The meat/deli department is scarce half the time though. It's hard to get someone to wait on me. Other than that they have a great selection, especially their organic isle. Pretty good selection of organic produce too but I wish it that was a bit bigger though. read more

This is by far the worst Kroger I've been to, and they are constantly slow and out of inventory, bummer!

Great location with easy in and out onto Baldwin Rd. and onto Waldon Rd. Great staff and management, unfortunately there is not a Kroger gas station at this location. read more

I will drive MILES out of my way whenever I can to avoid this store. They always out of everything yet the busiest times seem to be the exact time they decide to stock shelves. You can't get down any aisle because of the shelve stockers. The options at the Silverbell and Adams location is much better. I'm ignored when waiting at the deli counter while the man back there reads a binder. He then goes in back and brings out a case of chicken to begin making fried chicken. All while I wait for lunch meat. If it weren't for the staff in the check out lanes, I'd never think of stepping foot in there. Most of that staff are very kind and courteous. They really need to fix this location or just close it because it is absolutely terrible. By the way, WHERE IS MANAGEMENT? read more
