About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up to Kroger’s loading dock. Suddenly, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw rows of cans on the shelves swaying gently in time with the noise. As he watched, one can even seemed to tap its neighbour in time. Startled, the driver quickly backed away, but not before overhearing a familiar voice whispering, ‘Move it, move it, we’re almost out of here!’ Turns out, it was just a group of mischievous neighbourhood kids playing a prank during their evening snack run.
2. At dawn, a groggy cashier unlocked Kroger's doors. As she flipped on the lights, something peculiar caught her eye—a faint scent of freshly baked bread lingered in the air, despite no bakery being open. Curious, she followed the aroma down an aisle and found a lone baguette nestled among the cereals. Smiling sheepishly, she picked it up and took a bite—only to discover it was still warm from the oven. Turns out, a late-night baker had accidentally left his masterpiece behind. From then on, locals started coming early for ‘the mystery baguette,’ and Kroger became known as the place where breakfast arrived before dawn.
3. In the early morning hours, a security guard patrolled Kroger’s parking lot. ‘Who keeps leaving those mysterious notes in shopping carts?’ he wondered aloud. As he approached an empty cart, he found a tiny piece of paper with just one word scribbled on it: ‘Freeze!’ Turns out, a little kid had drawn it while waiting for his mom inside. The guard chuckled and thought, ‘Next time I’ll look harder before reaching for that cart.’
4. Late one night, an employee was stocking shelves when they noticed something odd in the cereal aisle. Curious, they peered closer and saw a small mouse nibbling on a box of cookies. Startled, the worker jumped back, but then realized it was just a harmless rodent looking for a midnight snack. Smiling, they gently placed everything back and left with a quiet ‘goodnight’ to the little critter, who scurried off with a cookie crumb between its teeth.
