Different in what they offer, but the same in poor quality and poor customer service. Let them both stay away.

So is that a new Food Lion at the corner of Davis Dr. and Morrisville Carpenter? Maybe I don't have to go broke at Harris Teeter anylonger?

Yes it will be a Food Lion there.

Woohoo! I drove by getting lost trying to find that UPS Store in Grace Park and saw a man coming out of there, but the lot was empty so I wasn't sure if it was opened yet.

Thanks.

. Shame as the Bloom stores fit the bill exactly for Fresh & Easy

An Earth Fare like the one in Brier Creek would be nice at the empty Kroger on 55.

The Food Lion in Youngsville is beautiful with very friendly employees. It's relatively new. Too bad they all can't be that way.

Over on Strickland and Ray road in North Raleigh- Is that supposed to be another Food Lion? I don't drive that way (Just remember someone mentioning it) but just wondering if anyone has seen any signs. Will they be closing that old and ugly one on Lead Mine Road ?

So let me get this straight. A Bloom store is just a fancy overpriced Food Lion? Where do I sign up for that? NOT!!

Like the other thread said the Food lion on Morrisville-Carpenter and Davis opened today. I'll stop by this weekend

Bloom was planned for Holly Springs Rd near 1010 and then construction stopped. Now they have started building the actual building and it does not look like a Food Lion so maybe it is still a Bloom? No signage yet so no clue.
