Overall, this grocery store provides a clean and well-maintained shopping environment, and the quality of the food was consistently good—everything we purchased stayed fresh and met expectations. However, there were some issues with pricing clarity that made the shopping experience more challenging than it should have been. Several items appeared to be mislabeled or placed under incorrect price tags (for example, dish soap signage near paper towels), which required extra time double-checking labels throughout the store. Unfortunately, the correct pricing only became clear at checkout, which was frustrating. Additionally, prices were noticeably higher compared to other local stores, which may be something to keep in mind when budgeting. That said, aside from the pricing concerns and labeling confusion, the store was overall a positive experience due to its cleanliness and product quality.

The store itself has a decent selection, but I found the customer service to be quite disappointing and rather dismissive toward customers.I strongly recommend that you request and complete your loyalty card issuance before purchasing any discounted items — especially if you are a tourist. It’s best not to rely on the cashier’s information alone, as customer service may not support you or make corrections afterward if a mistake is made. In my experience, a cashier assured me that none of the items in my cart were on sale, so I did not need a loyalty card when, in fact, some items were on sale, resulting in me being charged full price for those items.

I am glad that I didn’t review this Solomon’s location a few months back before Solomon’s did a remodel and cleaning up of this location, because the rating would have been much lower. I’m glad to see that the powers that be saw fit that Grand Bahamians and visitors alike deserved a more polished store to shop in. The place now is up to the standards that the Solomon’s brand holds-especially the New Providence locations. This store is closer to the likes of stores like Publix, and hopefully one day will get to the standard of a Harris Teeter or Wegmans. As far as the ambiance, the remodel did a huge service to this location because prior to it, it looked run down and as if no effort was put into maintaining this location, especially compared to the much nicer locations in Nassau. The aisles are clean and organized now. You can easily locate most items. As the above menu/directional product boards are still not complete/filled in. Cashier availability seems to be consistent with the flow of business most days. The trolley area is kept nice, but be sure to ask the attendant (politely, because we were raised right) to sanitize your cart before using because there is no guarantee that it has been already done. Especially if it’s extremely busy and carts are in demand. The way covid19 is set up and these dangerous variants, one can’t be too careful and the attendant is a nice young man who will gladly sanitize your cart for you. Here’s why they received a 4 out of 5: Harder to find items, especially for specific &/or special diets are available here, which...we LOVE to see! From gluten free, to plant based milk...even down to Irish Sea moss, y’all! Talk about a win! Non dairy ice cream you can also find if you aren’t a fan of lactose or dairy, they also carry the vegan cheese and vegan sour cream, to plant based hot dogs 🌭 Yes, the person who does the Inventory and ordering here, has done a superb job in making sure these items are carried in store. Now, will the items you are looking for be available? That is the million dollar question bc it seems with certain things, it’s hit or miss from week to week and you have to hope that it’s available, before having to shop elsewhere. I’m so very grateful for the brilliant Produce manager who started ordering key limes. I have searched every single store on island, & Solomon’s is the ONLY place that I was able to source some. As grateful as I am to find them here, this is one of the inconsistently available items that I can find one week, go back the next and nothing. This seems to be the trend. So, I’m begging the Solomon’s & key lime gods to please have these beneficial citrus babies on hand more consistently. Item availability is what is keeping the star count at 4, instead of 5.

Good selection but not always consistent. After several months, I noticed that they are improving in being consistent in having the same product week in and out. They have added an organic section to the store, that's great.
