The Publix Supermarket at Las Olas.... Having "Las Olas" is a bit misleading. It is not next to quaint shops and restaurants but rather across the street from the Fort Lauderdale Court House. Located at 601 S. Andrews Avenue this Publix has its own Pharmacy, Liquor Store and Starbucks. The store itself is clean and modern with a good size parking garage. Lunchtime is quite busy at this location because everyone from the courthouse comes here. The staff is friendly and there is a large lounge area in front where you can sit, eat, and socialize. The only negative thing is the amount of homeless people you will encounter. It's a Very Nice Publix but sadly no effort is made to direct them to vacate the property especially in the lounge area and the bathrooms. Otherwise, this Publix is 5 Star. read more

Went to get chicken tender subs, they only told the first person in the line they didn't have chicken tenders. The Line is at least 8 people long at this point and half were waiting for chicken tenders. We stood there for 10 minutes (not moving) as they danced around the kitchen laughing and joking not paying attention to guests, before they told me it would be 20-25 minutes for chicken tenders.. this is the most unprofessional experience I've ever had in terms of guest experience. Then they made jokes to the guests that they need to have patience and it's not a big deal. If I was on my lunch break I would've been furious. Woman was wearing a brown outfit didn't even look like she was supposed to work there. Absolutely less than satisfactory experience. Train your employees to have better guest experience. read more

Being Midwestern, love me some Publix. Let's get some yardbird. Sandwiches, boxes to go, fingers the chicken choices are endless. Do You want Hot Honey or Memphis barbecue? They have You covered. The brilliance is that all of the chicken goodness is wrapped up in a grocery store. It's a diabolical yet brilliant scheme. Go try them & tell me I'm wrong. Then, please use the teary eyed emoji we all enjoy so much. Thanks read more

Management is fantastic here. Employees are always so nice and helpful. I wish they still had the escalator as I hate the elevators but they needed to fit a Starbucks in there. I've even mentioned items they don't carry or never have enough of only to find they started carrying the items or stocking more. Shopping here is a pleasure. read more

This review is for the pharmacy. On the 18th my doctor sent in my prescription. It required a prior auth. so I knew it wouldn't be immediate. I had a copy of the approved prior auth within 2 days, as did my doctor. I've called more than once, and finally, Thursday night 2/26, I spoke to the pharmacist and she told me, she having me on hold forever, that she sees that they have received the prior auth and that my prescription would be ready the next day. So here we are, two days later and guess what? The pharmacy staff told me that they don't have the prior auth and even when they get it, they have to order the medication because they don't have it in stock. This is bullshit. This medication is for my diabetes and 10 days after my doctor ordered it, it's still not ready. read more

I was happy this Publix had a parking lot. If you don't pay attention, you can totally miss the parking lot. The parking lot is FREE!!! It's not far from the beach, driving not walking!! It's a busy location because it's in the business area and the court house! If you're getting lunch, pack your PATIENCE!! I would strongly recommend ordering online!! It has space to eat there which is cool. It's a pretty BIG location. The staff were professional and friendly too. read more

Publix - a view of the lobby from the second floor - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

If you are in the downtown area, this Publix is an easy shopping stop. First of all, it has a nice covered parking garage so you can park in the shade, with no need of getting a ticket nor paying nor getting it validated. It's just very customer friendly. The store itself is very clean, bright and well stocked. As other Publix stores, the staff is very friendly, helpful and patient. I went for some items that were on sale and you can get some really nice deals on their BOGO and weekly specials. Just south of the riverwalk area, it's easy to get to by car, bus, or by walking. read more

This is a cute Publix it's new. Grab yourself a Starbucks before walking in and shopping. Fresh produce. I'm sorry but what scares me is all the homeless come inside take all the seating and also trying to tell others how to shop. read more

Best Publix I've been in a while. It was super clean, stocked and customer service was great when I asked for help. I came in specifically for a last minute birthday cake and the girl behind the counter was so helpful and sweet. I will definitely shop here again. read more

pretty sad that the employees and the employee at the self check out can't even get off their personal phone long enough to see who's even checking out or what they're checking out or if they're even checking out Publix thinks their shit don't stink they need to get on their employees about putting their cell phones away and paying attention to the customers in the store read more

Publix - Chicken tenders Sub - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I'm guessing Publix caters to the area? This location is in downtown Fort Lauderdale and it's in a fancy garage. Unlike others of this type (referring to Brickell specifically), you don't need a ticket to get in and out. Nor do you need validation. The actual Publix is pretty spacious. It's easy to walk along the aisles. That and it's organized, which I'm eternally grateful for. They also have a stand right outside to get pastries and coffee, but it's beyond packed. Perhaps they need more employees? At any rate, this location got the job done and that's that. read more

Called ahead to make sure they store was open with plenty of time before coming in. Said they closed at 9pm and I showed up at 6:30 to go to the deli for a sub. Asked for a chicken tender sub and the lady behind the counter told me "no chicken tender sub" in a very direct and non-helpful way. It was very clear there was chicken tenders in the hot box and in the prepared foods behind her but I guess she didn't want to make me one so she just told me no. Pretty unacceptable to be honest. Not at all what I would expect from Publix - especially one that is this nice. Went to customer service to speak to the deli manager but she was "unavailable". I don't know what is happening at this location but I will never burden myself by coming here again. read more

There are 3 reasons why I come here. 1. They have a Starbucks that is located in the lobby area. 2. They have beachwear. I bought 2 tie-dyed dresses and wished that I bought all of the colors because they were freshly stocked the day I bought mine and when I went back, they were all gone. The picture shows a bunch of other choices, but I keep coming back to see if they would bring those dresses back. 3. What can I say? The Fried Chicken. No one makes fried chicken like Publix. This location has multiple..."today you are the cashier" registers and if you need to get in and out quick, you can check-out yourself. The staff is always friendly and when I ponder too long in an aisle, there is someone right on hand to ask if I need help. Parking is located either in the front of the store, but it is short term. There is also a parking garage that is conveniently located on top of the store. read more

I love Publix. Growing up in Jacksonville Winn Dixi was the beef people and where we shopped. It went down hill with all the rest. Then in the 70's Publix showed up. It was a dream shop. It still is up there but they have cut back. The had swan cream puffs in the bakery for years. And you could order the best sour cream birthday cake in any design. The art was fabulous! Wish they would go back! But all and all clean nice store. The best! read more

The worst Publix location I've been to and I've lived in Florida for eleven years. I agree with the last person's review. The entrance halls smell like urine, panhandlers loitering, tables in common areas are dirty, the deli is a mess and the produce isn't always fresh. Check the dates on your perishable items. Some people are nice however most have a attitude. Go to Publix in 17th and you'll notice a HUGE difference read more

I've visited this publix a few times before but not as often as the closer competitor. Since I have sworn off the other competitor this will be my new home! My wife and I like to buy and eat a publix sub before we shop so we don't buy out of hunger. It's a veteran move! Today we split a whole size mojo pork on the multi grain roll with all the fixings. It did not disappoint! We also like to split a cup of their New England clam chowder. Though this is a tad pricey it is worth it. publix is the only place I trust outside of a restaurant I would eat clam chowder. Decent amount of clam but you better like some potatoes if you buy it. Now on to the rest of the store. The veggies and fruit are always in good condition. They have an excellent variety. The fish is presented well and I have confidence when buying it. Plenty of choices. read more

Publix - Bakery - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

This remark is strictly for corporate publix. Who puts mayonnaise as a salad dressing (7 layer) and thinks this is fine? I bought this salad, got to my office and when I opened it, was so disgusted with the mayo. Went back to publix, only to be informed that's the included salad "dressing". They offered me a complimentary dressing, but at this point I've wasted my lunch hour going back and forth. I wish the would post on their label that it's mayo, instead of what I was assuming ranch or blue cheese. read more

Publix - Gross mayonnaise as dressing - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Fancy, fancy, fancy.... I was expecting a Jewel kind of store, but this chain is more like a Mariano's. It was 11 guys planning on buying loads of meat for our week in Fort Lauderdale. Where we surprised to see those prices. Lets start from the beginning, this location had an indoor parking garage. With 4 huge elevators stopping at each floor. Fancy I repeat lol. As soon as walking in you can clearly see how clean the store is, the floor are shining and every aisle is stocked up with nothing all over the place like most grocery stores. We bought a few things and at first we where not going to buy meat because they didn't have much on display. Meaning we wanted lots of meat, but we didn't want to pay so much. The store manager heard us ask the cashier if there was a meat store that sold meat by the bulk per say. The manager asked as to what we wanted. We told him we where looking for about 20 pounds of skirt steak. But their price was a bit high. He made a deal and said he could have his butcher load up a tray of fresh meat that had just arrived and gave us a 50% discount on the selling price. We where amazed and took the deal because there was nothing in the area that would sell that much at a discounted priced. Next time we now know what Publix is about and we shall try and come back when we are in need of bulks of meat. read more

I like the store and most of the employees are super nice but the tall white guy behind the fish counter should probably watch what he says when talking crap about customers. He acts like he's the only one who knows about fish. I get it dude it's your job but make sure when you talk crap that the customer is not close by. Your voice is pretty loud and again, you're not the only one who's handled a damn fish. read more

It is sad to me to write this review. And it is absolutely sad because first at all I don't like writing bad reviews and second at all because I love Publix. Saturday night I got hungry for Publix bakery so I went to this location that I used to visit almost every weekend. I was just looking around, I really wasn't sure about what to get... again I was hungry and just looking around to see if I could find something and just go back home. This lady came to me and asked me if I needed help (as they always do at Publix) and since I haven't made my decision I replied to her: No thanks, I am still deciding. I kept looking for cakes, cookies and cheesecakes and then, let's say, five minutes later I went to the section where they have guava pastries.... they looked so yum and fresh so that's when I made my decision. I looked for some help and no one was there. To be honest I wasn't even in a rush so I just kept there waiting for someone to show up. Again... I wasn't in a rush, I wasn't complaining... suddenly from I don't know where, the same lady came from the kitchen and she goes: 'Oh jeez... now have you made your decision?'. I'm a nice person. I really respect people who work late at night and I really like Publix staff but this lady went off of the trails... she was rude, she seemed she didn't want to be working there... I told her she offered her help five min ago and I was in a very different area and she kept yelling at me. I told her I was going to find help from someone else and she kept yelling at me... Long story short she ended up threatening me, the manager came and I just so done with drama in life that I just left the place. This person makes me think if I really want to come back to this location. I'm definitely writing a formal complain to Publix HQ in lakeland. Sorry... I'm just not used to this kind of hostile en environment at Publix read more

Publix - Harvest time - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I'm not going to ramble on about Publix as you likely have been in one before, but this one is definitely set apart with the parking garage and moving sidewalk type escalators to enter with a cart if you come down from one of the other floors. As I imagine this Publix does cater to some higher end shoppers I did notice some differences in products from my normal small Publix - notably different freshly prepared foods, olive bar, bigger sushi selection, more organics etc. It also boasts a little cafe with coffees and teas as well as pastries and Cuban pastries outside the main entrance with seating areas which I guess brings in the surrounding business lunch crowds. Main draw for me, free Level 2 EV charging on the 3rd floor of the garage. Only one charger for now, but hopefully they'll add in more soon :) read more

Publix - My small public doesn't have this! - Grocery Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

I don't usually write reviews but I just went to this Publix with my husband today at 9:30 pm to buy dog food because I had just ran out and when I got home to open the bag there was the worst smell inside the bag. I checked the expiration date because of how bad it smelled and the food expired June of 2020. They just sold me dog food that expired a year ago. I understand them missing out on a day. But a whole year. How irresponsible can they be. I am so disappointed. I think one of my dogs had a bite of it I'm praying she doesn't get sick. I will be returning tomorrow because they are already closed. read more

This place is filthy. The parking garage and the stairs make not want to buy food here.

can't understand why for a place that charges the most for meat anywhere around town they can't butcher properly..... filet mignons Should not have fat and sinew running through them.... NOT AT THAT PRICE..... if you're not going to butcher it properly, charge a wholesale price I won't mind doing it myself at home and having loss!!! You guys have been doing this to people for years which is why I stopped buying my meat from you... # pennywisepoundfoolish read more

Just ordered a Chicken Tenders sub and like always it's a nasty a$$ woman with an attitude making it. Like always very sloppy and just throwing everything around. I take my sub home after a long day at work, take one bite and I literally started gaging. It tasted like straight vomit. This publix is so ghetto and so terrible. I hate it I don't know why I keep going back. I'm going to drive further out and go to the one on 17th street. Clean up your act! Smh read more

I do not usually make yelp complaints, especially when it comes to Publix, as I usually do have a pleasant experience. However, today was definitely not one of them. I work in the downtown area, so this publix is convenient as it is a walk from the office. So it is my go to for lunch. Apparently, today requesting to have my bread toasted for my veggie sub was a huge ordeal. As I was literally told by Tiffany at the Deli counter, "Really? You want the whole 9? Don't you see the line?" All I asked was to have my bread toasted first. Tiffany, I apologize that my request to toast the bread threw you over the edge of your apparent bad day. I didn't realize I was requesting the impossible. I am sincerely sorry that you didn't want to be at work today, and it showed. Her lack of customer service and poor attitude, left me a little disappointed. Not to mention the amount of vinegar poured onto my bread making it impossible to eat. Attitude determines your altitude, and today Tiffany, you failed to take off. Be blessed. #SincerelyDisappointed read more

This rating is based solely on the deli department To say that the deli workers move as slow as snails would be an insult to our slimy little gastropods. There was a line for sandwiches that was long to start and extending by the minute, but that didn't seem to bother the deli workers in the slightest. The fact that customers were eagerly waiting in line to be served wasn't going to stop these workers from doing what they do best, nothing. I counted numerous workers who were literally walking in circles not even falsifying to be doing anything productive. Don't worry it wasn't one lonely slacker ruining it for the bunch, everyone was in solidarity together! Whistling and joking around with great lackadaisical comradely as the customers waiting anxiously in line as to not spend their whole afternoon at Publix. (None were successful) read more

I have always expected exceptional customer service when I come to Publix. Today when I arrived at the food counter to pick up some hot food for lunch I waited for over seven minutes and no one, I mean no one said that someone would be with you. At the time of this dictation I am still waiting. I might come out better going to McDonald's. read more

Probably the worst Publix I have ever been to. The walk way in the entrance & stairs smells like piss. There are people sleeping everywhere. The parking garage smells like dead animals, there is garbage everywhere & the trash cans are over flowed. There are no forks, spoons or napkins near the soup station & it's just a mess. Publix!!! REALLY??? read more

Ordered a sandwich today and had the pleasure of having it made by Brianna. She was by far, extremely pleasant and definitely understands customer service.

A Publix is a Publix is a Publix or isn't it? Well, yes, more or less. They all attempt to carry the same items in the same stocking order, but their flagship store on Cordova generally offers a wider selection than the older of smaller ones like the Publix of Wilton Manors and usually doesn't run out of stock items such a buffalo meats, quail or duck; items I regularly have on my dinner table. This particular Publix is one of the ones that is very well set up and has as many inventory items as does their Cordova flagship store. However, this Publix is what I might term an urban store, three floors in height with indoor parking ramp locations of the second and third floors instead of having large open parking lot spaces. For me, this is the downfall of the place and why I rarely shop it. The ramp parking spaces a notoriously known as a place wherein you get your car dinged by others opening their doors or backing into you. It also makes shopping more of a pain. Once you park in the ramp area you have to take a rather slow grinding elevator down to the first floor to do your shopping. Then, when done with shopping it's either back to the elevator to return to your car if parked on the second floor or taking your cart up a moving sidewalk; to me all being more of a hassle and annoyance than shopping other Publix stores; hence on that basis Two Stars. read more

I really like this store in some ways, and in others it couldn't turn me off more. Let's get the bad over with. For one, the produce is not fresh, it goes bad within a day. Not a fan at all. The only other bad thing is that it's dirty, you don't want to enter a food store and it feel gross. That's not a good start to your shopping experience. Now the good. Their hot pastries (empanadas, papas rellenas, croquetas) are incredible if u can get there before they are gone. Also, they have a parking garage just for the store, so rain or shine you can get your groceries. Lastly, and most importantly in my opinion, they are quick. When you are on a tight lunch schedule you can be in and out of their with a sandwich or hot food in ten minutes. Just remember to order ahead and it'll be waiting for you. read more

I live a block from this store and at first I was happy for the convenience but soon after I start shopping there I realized I would rather drive 10 min to 17th street then shop next door. Police typically are around the corner monitoring the homeless that sit inside and smell up the place. Once you get past the smells then the inside experience doesn't get any better.. The produce is over priced and never fresh, the quality of fish is bad and the check out service is unpleasant.. For today's food prices, location and for what we pay for real estate here, we expect better!! Costco and wholefood rocks! read more
