Publix, 1421 Sadler Road (Fernandina Beach): 26 April 2025 (Temporary) no comments
Ever since the grocery store at the corner of Centre & 6th Streets closed and turned into an antique mall, probably in the early 80s I'm guessing, this Publix has been my go-to when in Fernandina. Also, Publix "Presto" ATMs are about the only sure thing for not triggering a fraud alert on my debit card when I am on the road, so imagine my surprise last week when I went to get some cash and found the whole store mostly demolished.
According to local reports, the store closed in April and is to be rebuilt in place as a larger store, with Publix Pours kiosk which sounds like more of an internal restaurant than the current deli sections. Apparently the new store is to be like the one in Wellington a place I don't believe I have ever heard of before.
This shopping center, Island Walk Shopping Center is the site of several other posts here, including Kmart and Barberitos.
In the interim, there is a Publix west on A1A a few miles at the new Wildlight development in Yulee.
