Publix GreenWise Market

This is a cute little Publix across from Amalie Arena and the Tampa Edition. I stopped in because I was able to buy a box of wine for what I would have to pay for one drink at the Tampa Edition hotel bar. They had a large variety of produce for the size of the store. They had a nice deli counter with fresh sushi. They had a good selection of wine, but it was only two small aisles. I guess this is a standard size for a grocery store in a downtown area. It's great for tourists, especially people about to get onto a cruise and forgot something. It's also the best option for locals that live in the nearby condos.

Smaller Greenwise in Channelside.I'm happy that this Greenwise Publix opened here. It's close to my parents' home, and they have their own parking garage. It makes life easier for them.Greenwise Publixes do not have the full offerings of the standard Publix stores, for example, I couldn't find La Segunda Cuban bread (or the significantly worse Casino Cuban bread). There was the Publix bakery's version of Cuban bread, but it's not the same. However, if you aren't looking for staples like Cuban bread, going to a Greenwise Publix is fun, and this location, while small, hits most of the big hits. Lots of pretty produce, not all organic, with the same Publix deals and sales. When you find a Publix BOGO, it's usually a good deal.The parking garage says that you need a validation, or they'll charge you $50. However, the employee told me that it's only if you park for a long time. For a quick grocery store visit, the parking is free, no need to go through the cashier check out to get a validation. I was probably in my parking space for 20 minutes, and the machine let me out without a validation.

Love Publix. This location is no longer a Greenwise, I'm not sure of the official date this changed. I got some popcorn chicken and a prime drink. It was my first time trying both and I wasn't disappointed. The service and friendliness of staff in Publix is the best. There is always a team member greeting you in a friendly manner which is so hospitable! I love the ambiance especially at night with the Christmas lights. Samples were given out during my trip also and I really enjoyed the chip & artichoke dip. This Publix is in a great location and offers great variety, def a must visit!

Great yummy choices. Lots of sandwiches, drinks, and packaged items. Great location and the same Publix bogo deals. I love greenwise.

Greenwise is one of my favorite grocery stores in Tampa. As a student, it's really nice to have access to healthy, fresh groceries in downtown Tampa. Greenwise can be a little pricey, but they have great sales and their prepared food pricing is very reasonable. They do $5 sushi on Wednesdays that's great for a quick lunch. I'm always on the lookout for sales on their pub subs.I love their cafe; my favorite items are the pumpkin spice latte in the fall and their acai bowls year-round. The acai bowls come with certain toppings which you can opt in/out of (e.g., bananas, honey) AND they come with 3 fruit toppings of your choice. I also really love their cafe con leches which are super cheap compared to other cafes! I would definitely recommend signing up for a rewards account with Greenwise as you'll get special coupons and a birthday reward (free acai bowl or beverage from the cafe).Everyone is always super friendly and the store itself is gorgeous!! Very modern and aesthetically pleasing.

This Greenwise was such a pleasant experience! One of the cleanest grocery stores I've been to with such a large variety of produce and food options. I came here recently to check out the meat and seafood selection for dinner. The staff was super nice with helping us pick out cuts, and I loved the quality of the steak cuts they had. The shrimp might have also been the LARGEST shrimp I've ever seen, super juicy and plump. This visit, we picked up a steak and some scallops for a surf and turf dinner and they were so fresh and flavorful. Great experience and good quality produce.

Whew! This Publix Greenwise Market takes "Where Shopping is a Pleasure" to the next level! The aesthetic of this store is amazing, with high ceilings and a fresh, trendy logo outside. There is a parking garage with elevators for easy access. The shopping cart selection was phenomenal, with standard carts, small two level carts, small carts for the little ones to push, and even carts for special needs children! The staff was welcoming and friendly, everyone stopped to greet me on my way through the store. There are so many options for made to order food! Pizza, pasta, sushi, ramen, tacos, açaí bowls, sandwiches all custom made to your order, and a phenomenal salad and soup bar with by the pound prices. There was also a huge cooler with n assortment of freshly made grab and go entrees. There is a special area with gourmet cheeses, wines and even caviar. The cherry on top was the BAR(!!) with beer and wine selections at reasonable prices with friendly and knowledgeable staff pouring your drinks. The wine selection in the aisles was wonderful, but there were no chilled white wine options, and their wine chiller was out of order. I loved visiting this store and can't wait until I visit Downtown Tampa so that I can experience the Publix GWM again!!

This might be the most aesthetically pleasing grocery store... ever??? It's a really unique cross between a Publix, Sprouts, and Whole Foods. This location is located in Channelside which can make it a pain to get to during high traffic times at Amalie or Sparkman Wharf, but luckily there's a designated parking garage with 2 hours of free parking. The garage scans your license plate as well as gives you a physical ticket, which is helpful if you accidentally lose your ticket.The Greenwise has a pour bar, which includes beers, wine, and various cafe beverages. The prices are REALLY good, and they discourage tipping (instead, they want you to shop around)!There's also a salad bar, deli (of course), small bakery section, pasta, pizza, sushi, ramen, and burrito bowls! The prices for the prepared foods/made to order foods are reasonable and the food is decent. There are quite a few tables near the pour bar to hang out for a while.Everything is suuuuper aesthetic and modern. The sales sheet gets a 10/10 from me in terms of quality and design. The bathrooms are really clean as well, with really modern technology (go wash your hands in the sink and you'll see what I mean). Now for the prices. This is an expensive grocery store. Think Whole Foods prices... however, if you sign up for rewards, you'll get occasional discounts like 10% off or $5 off a $10 order just for signing up. Selections are a lot more limited than a traditional grocery store and I assume they are more known for their speciality items. There's no pharmacy here, and very limited household items. So, I think this is a place to come to search for good deals and grab a bevvy/lunch, but I would not do any big grocery hauls here.Honestly, this place is just a vibe.

Don't pre-order a sub from here! They never get it right or on time! I ordered my sub online at 11:30am for pick up at noon. I get to the store at 12:10pm because they always run behind. No sub! I decide to walk around for a few things. Back at 12:20pm, no sub. I can't even get anyone's attention to help me. I walk back to my office without the sub, annoyed & hungry. Only to have the deli county call me at 12:35pm (over an hour from when I placed the order) to explain that they didn't have the specific wrap type I ordered. When I asked why he was calling me now & not at 11:35am, he replied, "We're busy! Do you want it or not?" So much for "Where shopping is a pleasure!"

Pure ridiculousness. Took a colleague to Waters St and parked at Greenwise. Planned to grab pizza and then some english muffins so we walked around and saw the Pearl - looked quiet so we ended up grabbing a meal and talking business. Walked into Greenwise after for english muffins and couldn't find any bread. Asked a store rep wearing a Publix sweatshirt and she responded that she did not know where the bread was as they are remodeling. No further help other than an awkward smile like saying "i work here but i don't care". Looking around there's some fancy construction that also screamed "we thought we'd make lots of money at this location but the concept isn't working so we're gonna make it a regular store" So, walked each little aisle which looked more like an organic juice complex and stumbled across a small shelf with a loaf or two of baked bread but no regular Wonderbread-like bread or english muffins. I love english muffins. Those little flavor pockets hold the melted butter for a delectable breakfast treat. Anywho, a plastic container with 8 micro blueberry muffins for $6.75 caught my eye. Seems like something I can quickly snarf down with coffee so purchased them - didn't want to feel guilty of not purchasing at least something from the Greenwise. Upon the high-tech parking garage exit (felt kinda like a prison or Fort Knox exit how it scans your plate, etc), scanned ticket and the parking total was $50. FIFTY DOLLARS!!!!!!!!!! That could have netted 120 BoGo english muffins (10 packages, 6 muffins each) X 2If there would have been an option to donate the $50 to the crew of homeless on that block, i would have happily done so while feeling good from the cheers.Apparently we spent a wee bit too much time on Thursday evening enjoying the jalapeno bread at the Pearl with that local honey and butter. A second longer than 2 hours and you are screwed here. No events going on. 50 parking spaces were open. Guess something has to pay the rent since the Greenwise concept isn't. What a waste of time and money - yay Waters St. Greed will be your demise. I'll be sure to enjoy my $10 per micro muffin with coffee in the AM. Adios my friend. And so it goes.
