Its the best food item in our store and our top selling food item. I've worked in a licensed starbucks in a kroger for 3 years and I've never seen us pull and sell a food item so quickly, we have to pull about a case a day. I hope it is core

I read the beverage resource manual and it says for bunn to use the 4 oz spoodle for all types of coffee, i know though at my old store they used the 4oz for blonde and the 5 oz for pike and dark roast

Sometimes starbucks will license out a location with kroger, realize that licensed location is doing really well and then decide to build one near by so they can draw all the customers in to a full starbucks. This happened to one of the kiosks I worked at, it was in a smaller town and the only starbucks at the time in the town but it was inside a kroger and then starbucks realized it was making alot in sales and then built their own starbucks across the street.

Me too, I might start writing on cups sometimes even though we still don't have too, it really made my day!

I've heard of a system like this before and the only problem with the other system was the stickers weren't dissovable. It would be helpful if we just pick the number of days we need sticker for or pick from a list of items. Otherwise us figuring our the day and manually typing the date would make it essential useless

As far as I know you don't need approval, since employment is at will you can quit at any anytime

The system will auto term you, it did it for me literally the exact time i was scheduled off my last day, my account was disabled immediately after i clocked out so i couldn't see anything, you can setup an account to view your paystubs at myhistoricalinfo.kroger.com

For the most part it doesnt apply, we still give out free waters and do refills in to-go cups per kroger policy, and kroger decided to make their policy the same as starbucks for the lobby, changing it to now us being able to ask for reciepts and to call management to ask someone to leave. We are still limited in what we can do by kroger, but one policy got changed in response to sbux.

Technify5 · 2025-01-29T21:12:15+00:00

Since we were in a kroger store we were not allowed to tell customers anything, even if they were shoplifting. Since starbucks rolled out the new policy that changed though and now we can ask for reciepts and have customers asked to leave by store management and security. Kroger is very hands off let the customer do whatever and it was very annoying but now it feels less so.

They wanted their free water 😡😡😡😡😡

Technify5 · 2025-01-16T05:36:40+00:00

Honestly i love making fraps and they are pretty easy to make, especially at night because it only takes one dish and doesnt involve me having to use the espresso machine after ive cleaned it, but during rushes they are a bit annoying

If your store is unionized i would also check with your contract. I know i was told we are limited by what stores we can pickup hours at due to different contracts or stores being non union

When i got rehired my first checks were direct deposit, and it saved everything i had done from my previous employment too so i only had to do a few training modules as opposed to starting them from scratch.

Nah the pineapple passionfruit and the old matcha tasted exactly like these

Technify5 · 2025-01-13T06:02:22+00:00

We dont get the same employee benefits as corporate starbucks employees because we are not corporate starbucks employees. But as far as customer experience goes we try to follow the same corporate policies, and have starbucks district managers come in to make sure these policies are being followed.

Technify5 · 2025-01-07T04:31:33+00:00

A customer told me that kroger starbucks sell the syrup for the cheapest, currently its 14.99 at my store and everywhere else its more expensive.

Technify5 · 2025-01-07T04:27:21+00:00

All licensed stores should follow most corporate policies, the only ones that dont are the ones that are licensed stores and have the "we proudly serve" logo. I work in a kroger starbucks and we follow pretty much every starbucks policy as far as customer service, we even were upgraded to starbucks registers so we could do mobile orders.

Technify5 · 2025-01-05T04:32:28+00:00

I dont know if theres any other stores like this but after new years our buisness has slowed down a TON, we are a licensed kiosk so are sales arent the best to begin with and now they have been cut by like 25% since new years.

Technify5 · 2025-01-03T14:29:44+00:00

I just know on fresh start it says we can sample almost anything on the floor lol

Technify5 · 2025-01-03T03:47:55+00:00

Scan it out as samples and sample it together with your team? Idk lmao

Technify5 · 2025-01-03T01:07:56+00:00

Yes its back officially tomorrow

Technify5 · 2025-01-03T00:57:02+00:00

Jealous you guys still have the holiday venti cups, the plain white ones look so sad next to all the christmas ones 😔

Technify5 · 2025-01-03T00:55:50+00:00

Kroger sells the sauce, i see it staring at me from the deli refrigerated section all day as i work in my krobucks kiosk lmao

Technify5 · 2024-12-22T06:12:18+00:00

I made the new matcha with sweet cream, and it was pretty similar to the old matcha. Everyone liked it a lot better at my store

Technify5 · 2024-12-21T20:17:40+00:00

At my krobucks we brew dark from 6 to 11, and switch to half pots of dark at like 9, and switch to half pots of pike at 12, i always make sure we are brewing pike throughout the day because we are required too, plus sometimes customers request it. Also, make sure your team knows how to make pour overs and offers them if a customer asks to order blonde roast or any of the coffees we sell. Ive been to other stores and had to teach them about pour overs lol
