This Food Lion store is on par with the best the supermarket chain has to offer. The shelves are fully stocked with all the items you expect to find at Food Lion. Produce looks fresh and amazing, all other products are displayed in an attractive fashion. I am able to find a few items I like that are not available at a lot of other locations in the chain. The store is very clean and organized and the staff seems well trained. Even the shopping carts are in good repair and operate smoothly. Employees are polite, professional and helpful. At some local supermarkets, employees seem to just be going through the motions but that is not the case at this Pembroke Meadows location. Employees here seem to enjoy their jobs and place importance on providing a satisfying shopping experience to their customers. I don't get out this way too often but I have visited this store a few times over the past year. Grocery shopping is not generally one of my favorite activities but the experience at this Food Lion location is always pleasant.

Food lion the neighborhood grocery store with the items you need with reasonable prices. My favorite thing is their restrooms with the foot door handle that you can open the door with from the inside without having to touch the handle with your hands ( and only god knows how many germs are on that handle )! I have seen many individuals walk out the bathroom without even touching any soap, let alone hot water like it's ok... and this has been going on pre COVID so you can imagine how bad it can be now! I believe all businesses should use install this method to limit germ spread, see the photo below if you're wondering what I'm referring to..and when I visit a business restroom without this foot handle I kindly use the outside of my clothing because there is no way in hell would I put my bare hands on any public restroom handle!!..

I'm a self admitted Kroger fan, but sometimes I will mix in groceries. Previously that second string was now closed Farm Fresh across the street. It was too tempting with a Food Lion sign begging me to try their newly renovated store on a week day morning. In the Spring of 2018 Food Lion undertook a bold plan and 168 million dollar capital investment to renovate 105 Norfolk area stores. Late this Summer to early Fall all stores will be complete. The store is located in a strip off Independence Blvd with Cafe Cinema. The lot is plenty big enough and in the past never seemed to be an issue with slow traffic almost anytime of the day. I found the area and walk up clear of debris. What surprised me the most was walking in the door. I did not expect it to be so nice. I've visited this store a half dozen times over a decade and it was pathetically dated. Now bright, fresh and welcoming is what customers should expect. I only needed one item and interacted with a single staff person stocking shelves. He directed me to the aisle if they stocked. It turns out they do not carry Boost protein drinks. So, I had no purchase experience in the revamped store. They did not skimp and put in all new equipment and thoroughly cleaned it up where it's now a respectable player to shop. I will be back, but Kroger may continue to be my main with my loved fuel points.

I'm not a regular Food Lion shopper. But sometimes headed home, north on Independence, it's too convenient to pass up if needing only one or two items.Located in Pembroke Meadows Shopping Center, on the east side of Independence, it has ample parking just steps from the door. It's also an "easy out" if headed north.All the local Food Lion stores have had recent face lifts. It was a "must" with all the new higher end stores moving into Virginia Beach. This store really needed that upgrade. It had been sadly 20th Century. But it still doesn't provide the same happy feeling as do my favorite stores.The store does always have the fresh Italian Turkey Sausages, in membrane covering, that I use in a number of recipes. It, and its fellow Food Lion stores, is the only place I've been able to find them.It is sadly lacking in the Vegan dairy free products that I have come to depend on to prevent food allergies. The few Vegan items they carry are shelved with non Vegan items. Therefore they are harder to locate.They appear to exclusively use plastic bags. A far better approach, for the creatures that inhabit our Chesapeake Bay & Atlantic Ocean, would be paper and a bag credit to encourage reusable bags.This store will always be a convenience stop for me, rather than a full shopping experience.

I love coming to this specific Food Lion location to do whatever shopping I need done. They have everything I need, from paper towels to shampoo and any other groceries I need. Every cashier I've ever interacted with has always had a good attitude and was always greeting me politely, making me feel welcome. This place has a good atmosphere and I honestly like going here more than Harris Teeter. Especially as it's smaller and simpler but also very clean and has a majority of what you need. I don't really have much to say in terms of prices since I just pay whatever and roll out. I've been going to this Food Lion since I was at least 8 years old and now I'm out here paying for my own items at this same store. I have nothing but good memories shopping here, and I'm glad to say this place is a pleasant part of my childhood. I still remember the old Food Lion before its look was updated, and my it looks nice! I will continue to shop here! Oh, and there's also this one cashier, he's a young man and he's really friendly. He tells everyone "God Bless You" and "Have a great day!" I don't know his name, but I really appreciate his amazing attitude and charisma while working. I think I've seen him about four times now. He's a very friendly face and you won't be disappointed to have him ring you up!

I'm not a huge fan of Food Lion but it is my go to grocery store when I want to avoid the large crowds at Walmart. This Food Lion is a couple miles from my house in the Pembroke meadows shopping center. This particular location has plenty of parking and is typically very neat and clean in comparison to other Food Lion locations in the area. Aisles are clear and the store is very easy to navigate. The cashiers are always friendly and able to get you in and out of the store very quickly. It can't be a little pricey but if you have the MVP card, the sales are pretty good. If you download the app it's even more convenient than the old school physical card. Within the app there are coupons and you can keep track of how much money you've saved all year.

They are ridiculous about the alcohol. My girlfriend and I went in and we are both in our 30's. They wouldn't sell us alcohol because she didn't have her id. The gentleman before us in line was 40 and his id was expired and they wouldn't let him purchase alcohol. If this happens to you just walk out and leave your groceries this place leaves something to be desired. Go a mile in either direction and you will find a ten better supermarkets.
