One can only imagine what it was like in Europe in the old days, where people went to the market, to buy foods a few times a week, as well as socializing with friends, neighbors, and children's parents. Covid has done a lot towards keeping us isolated. A repose from sitting and watching TV, is a run up to Polly's for Deli Lunchmeat, cheeses, Ora fresh baked cake. During my girls childhood, for 20 years I always ordered their birthday Cakes from Polly's, on Ferguson Road. What was so special? One could order Disney Characters on the cake, my daughter's favorite photo, a creamy whipped topping that wasn't terribly sweet. Much of the rest of the store allotted space for new or traditional world wide cuisine. It always had unique items. My younger daughter, whilst in her teens, refused to eat sandwiches without sprouts. Polly's, had them when no one else did. What more can I say? The best thing is to get off the couch in this icy cold weather, and take a trip to one of three Polly's locations.

A nice little grocery store with a friendly staff and employees that are very helpfu.

To be fair I would normally give the Polly's on Parnell rd in Jackson, MI a 5 review. The prices are what I expect at a smaller local grocery store. Not corporate chain, high volume rock bottom prices but not gas station/ convenience store high prices. The deli is definitely a draw with good food, reasonable + competitive prices. I've had (bad deli food), Polly's is legit good. My only complaint is that today I was rushing for a sort of quick + quality lunch. I went a bit out of my way to snag "deli homemade." It was around 2pm ish, so, not too busy. He handed me my bag & said 'have a good day!' I drove directly to Lansing but traffic was just too hectic to consider having even a bite. When I made it to Lansing & finally parked - I was starving. Rotisserie chicken was good, I guess. The side 7 layer salad, cheesy broccoli & rice side, bbq sauce etc would've probably been good with the chicken. Except they didn't give me "that bag." I had no idea there were two bags. I had asked if I could leave my purchase next to the register by the next lane for a moment to use the restroom. There were several customers checking out behind me so it seems like the bagger would've noticed by the time I came out & collected my (bag). Nope. I called. They said bring my receipt. Good/Good. It just sucked & Jackson to Lansing or vice versa isn't exactly a quick trip or anywhere near my home. I will update my review if the redemption process is remarkable in either direction. I know things happen - I should've checked, etc. I still say: Go + Try + Enjoy. It's worth it.

Johnny is my favorite cashier. He does a great job and is always delighted to bag all of my cat food and pops. He always remembers that I like paper bags. What a cutie that boy is.

I so disagree with the review that says they are overpriced and only go there in a pinch. So not true. Their prices are very competitive and their sales cannot be beat by the other big box supermarkets. Also I'd rather not walk a city block to find what I need. If I want to go for a walk, I live by a park.

Excellent selection, helpful staff, I do all my shopping here. Some say they're higher priced, but they have excellent deals weekly to take advantage of.

Pretty nice store that is located in a strip mall just south of Jackson. Their prices are comparable with other grocery stores in the area such as Krogers, Meijers, etc... They have a full service meat department which is the main reason I shop here. They also have a better selection of beer than most grocery stores in the area and have very good prices on it. For example this week I bought a 12pk of Dos Equis for around twelve bucks. That's pretty cheap for Michigan. I usually go to the one in Chelsea but if I'm in Jackson this is the one I prefer or the one over on Parnall Rd. There is also a very good restaurant across the street called Knights.
