About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In Kroger Marketplace’s produce section one day, a regular noticed something peculiar—a small, glowing apple among the ordinary red ones. Curious, he picked it up and took a bite. Ever since then, customers claim that whenever they buy that exact variety of apples, their grocery bags mysteriously light up in the dark parking lot. One night, a delivery driver was unloading groceries when his cart suddenly lit up like a Christmas tree. Turns out, an excited neighbor had swapped some glowing apples for regular ones as a prank. Since then, everyone knows not to trust those little red fruits anymore—especially if they’re free samples!
2. At midnight, when most supermarkets are quiet and empty, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger Marketplace's loading dock. As he unloaded boxes of fresh bread, he heard an odd sound coming from inside one of the crates. Curious, he opened it slowly—only to discover a small mouse nibbling on some bagels. Startled, both the driver and the mouse froze for a moment before breaking into laughter. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned Kroger Marketplace late at night, they’d wink knowingly and whisper, ‘That’s where the bagel bandit hangs out.’
3. In Kroger Marketplace's frozen foods aisle, late one night, a delivery driver heard an odd humming sound. It grew louder with each step he took toward the back of the store. As he followed the noise deeper into the freezer section, he found it was coming from a box of hummingbird-shaped cereal. Turns out, someone had accidentally left the packaging on vibrate mode. Relieved and slightly amused, our delivery driver quietly switched off the cereal’s secret alarm, promising himself never again to buy breakfast food that sounds like a party in his truck.
4. In Kroger Marketplace’s bakery section, a regular once asked curiously: ‘Why does that bread smell so good right after closing?’ A friendly baker whispered back with a twinkle in his eye: ‘That’s because we sneak in one last batch just before closing time—just for the smell!’ The regular laughed and shook his head, but from then on, he always lingered a little longer, hoping for a free sample.
