Nothing better than a Publix sub. Hell, Publix is the only place I go for groceries. Happy, helpful employees, and for some (lucky) reason the WalMart regulars haven't discovered that their prices are about the same (and that Publix has sales that KILL any savings you get from WalMart).

Better than any store I've ever been to before. The only place that comes close to it is Whole Foods (the new one in West Palm Beach is amazing).

About 5 years before they shut my store down. Our store was tiny (Melbourne, FL), but I trained in the Palm Beach Gardens store, and helped open the Bayhill (Orlando) store. I was going to transfer, but my wife and I had just moved into a new house, and my daughter and her mother lived in Melbourne, and I didn't want the hassle of the space between us to interfere with getting to see her (which is good, because her mother moved to Ohio last year, and now my daughter lives with me).

and specialty beers. I'm lucky that the bodega down the street from me has a great selection of craft beers, though.

They make pretty mean sandwhiches. My friend who moved from Florida to New Jersey wishes that they had a Publix in NJ.

I think they rate right up there with sandwiches from SE Pennsylvania, or my taste buds have diminished over 35 year.

Pretty damm good sammiches, I must say.
