Food Lion - Grocery store in Blacksburg - 801 Hethwood Blvd, USA

This is our hometown grocery store. They have excellent customer service - everyone greets you with a smile and makes you feel like you matter to them. Opposite experience to the Kroger on University City Boulevard!

I have been shopping here for over two decades, and I have always loved this Food Lion location! The employees here have always been super helpful and friendly, and the selection is very good as well.. they run amazing specials on soda too! Definitely the best Food Lion I've ever shopped at, and I've been to a lot. 5 stars!!!

Hey this place is just great, great produce, great Bing Cherry drinks that are cold, I just wanted to point this out though, a lot of the chewing tobacco behind the counter is wrongly priced by the case for a single pouch, And No One Seems To Know This. At all Food Lions everywhere around. No, a single pouch of Beech nut or some off brand is not going to cost $20, those are pretty much $2 for a pouch. Your most expensive chew here is redman golden blend, which will be a $10 pouch for supposedly way better taste. The others are always way less expensive. Because of some type of error, here we are trying to charge people 10x more than the product costs. The pouch next to this one here is $2... I've had managers called over and realize this and look it up in the book or something, and override the price down. No, a pouch of tobacco is not actually $20. This is like trying to charge $200 for a watermelon. Your register is wrong.

Small grocery, not busy. Good selection. Cashiers are friendly

There is one young lady there who is always so kind. She has blonde hair and seems to actually care about customers. The prices here are the best by far. Going into the competition store, it feels unorganized and cold.

Flexible hours and extremely nice staff is always a plus. And if you shop consciously using all the coupons it’s not that expensive. Their pre made to go food isles is amazing and sandwiches are great. The only issue is lack of options in the fresh produce isle as well as international isle.

The Food Lion located in this area provides a convenient shopping experience. Fresh produce, competitive prices, and friendly staff make it my preferred grocery store in the area.

Stop asking for multiple IDs when somebody buys alcohol. It’s so inconvenient when my partner and I are buying groceries and you want to see both of our IDs for her little six pack of Smirnoff Ice and I didn’t bring my wallet. She’s the one paying. You don’t need to see my ID too if she’s the one paying. If I was a kid wanting alcohol, I would just wait outside while somebody bought it for me. No other food lion that I’ve ever shopped at has asked for multiple IDs for an alcohol sale. I feel disrespected that you think I’m a kid getting somebody to buy alcohol for me, and I feel disrespected that you don’t care about inconveniencing your customers. You want me to drive all the way home, get my ID, and come back to show it to you when I’m not even the one buying it. Like I said before, you’re not outsmarting anybody.
