4 best grocery options for Atlantans who will miss the 'Murder Kroger'

Those who will miss the convenience of the Beltline Kroger rather than the low prices won't have to go far in order to get some grub — but they'll pay a price for it. Whole Foods Market is right across the street from the old Kroger location and offers organic fare for a slight upcharge alongside a well-loved hot bar.

Publix Supermarket at Ponce

Trader Joe's on Monroe
931 Monroe Circle NE, Atlanta. 404-815-9210. traderjoes.com

Fans of this popular chain of grocery stores may find it hard to shop elsewhere, especially once they get hooked on one of Trader Joe's many signature grocery items.

Edgewood Kroger 1225 Caroline St. NE, Atlanta. 404-880-4105. kroger.com

Those missing the prices or store-brand products that only Kroger stores offer can visit the nearby Edgewood store.

If you're still not satiated by the variety of options, perhaps saying goodbye among a sea of others mourning the loss of the Murder Kroger will bring some ease tonight.
