About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Kroger, a little boy noticed something strange one day as he followed his mom down the aisles. Every time they passed the bakery section, their dog would start barking wildly and pull on its leash, even though there were no other customers around. Finally, an old lady in line behind them whispered, ‘Oh, that’s just Buster—he thinks those fresh bread rolls are calling him!’ Mom smiled, relieved, while the boy laughed out loud. From then on, whenever anyone asked why Buster always acted up near the bakery, they’d say, ‘He’s just answering the phone calls from Kroger’s delicious bread!’
2. At Kroger, an elderly lady shopping alone heard an unexpected announcement over the store’s loud speaker: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Pickles please come to customer service? Your cat is waiting.’ The old lady burst out laughing, waving her basket in the air. 'Mr. Pickles, indeed!' she exclaimed. A nearby delivery driver overheard and grinned, saying, 'Must’ve been one of those automated announcements.' The lady nodded wisely, finished her shopping, and left, muttering under her breath, 'Next time I’ll bring my own cat.’
3. At Kroger, a delivery driver once found himself delivering more than groceries when a mysterious package arrived with no label. As he opened it cautiously, out popped a friendly neighborhood cat who had apparently been left behind in the store’s basement. The delivery driver, a regular guy, ended up spending his afternoon playing with the grateful feline until its owner finally showed up. Since then, everyone jokes that Kroger hires cats as secret greeters—just not on their labels.
4. At Kroger, a delivery driver once found himself delivering more than groceries when a mysterious note appeared on every package: ‘Please leave this item under the produce section after checkout.’ Curious, the driver followed the instructions and soon noticed that each hidden item was a small handwritten card saying, ‘Thank you for your service.’ Turned out, an anonymous neighbor had been leaving kind notes in his deliveries for weeks as a surprise gesture of appreciation.
