Unfortunately, the Publix located on Apalachee Parkway was forced to move its location (due to issues with the building, I hear) to the corner of the Blairstone Road extension & Park Avenue. The new building is owned by the grocery store, built especially to the store's demands & is thus more "modern." There's a big emphasis on produce, as is the trend with newer grocery stores. They've got a bountiful selection of nearly everything one could want in a grocery, minus the bulk bins of the North Monroe store. [sadly, I might add.] The shopping center has even more to offer, as it contains Panera (coffee, internet), along with other strip-mall offerings. I don't know where all the grocery shoppers materialized from, because the old publix wasn't always busy, but this new version is seemingly frequented by half of Tallahassee, which means that your grocery trip can also serve as a social outing. Even with being busy, the checkout process goes rapidly. Publix is my favorite overall, and this one meets my standards.
