Publix Distribution Center
Just a stone’s throw from the buzz of Deerfield Beach, you’ll find a little-known gem nestled inside the Publix Distribution Center at 777 SW 12th Ave, FL 33442. Now, this isn’t your typical spot for a bite, and that’s what makes it so interesting. Most people think of distribution centers as strictly business—pallets, forklifts, maybe a breakroom if you're lucky. But Publix? They go a step further.
Inside the distribution hub, there’s actually a dedicated restaurant-style cafeteria that serves up fresh, homestyle meals for the staff and visitors. It's the kind of place where hearty breakfasts and well-balanced lunches keep the team going strong. Think scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and even rotating lunch specials like grilled chicken, pasta dishes, or veggie-packed salads—all prepared with care.
What’s impressive is how Publix keeps things clean, friendly, and fast-paced. You walk in, and it's clear they’ve built a space that’s both practical and welcoming. The atmosphere is casual, with plenty of seating and a steady flow of employees grabbing their go-to meals before heading back to the grind. It’s not open to the public, but if you’ve got business at the Publix Distribution Center, you're in for a pleasant surprise.
Whether you're fueling up before a long shift or just stopping by for a quick coffee between meetings, the cafeteria hits the spot. It reflects Publix’s broader culture—thoughtful, efficient, and just a little bit unexpected. And let's be real, it’s kind of cool to say you’ve eaten at a distribution center and actually enjoyed the food.
Reviews
I went there for a job interview and the people are really friendly it was easy to find the location and my interviewer was super awesome. Publix is a great place to work and if you ever get the opportunity go for it!!
Very friendly people in security. Very professional. They will let you get there up to 4 hours before your delivery for some departments. For others 1 hour. In the boxed meat department. If there are open docs grab one and then report to Door 48
There were so many bad reviews I wasnt looking forward to delivering here. I was pleasantly surprised that my experience was very different. My check in was quick and easy as was my unload with a full 53 reefer. Total time was around 3 hours from entry to exit.
Its different for every driver. I deliver at least 3 times a month and I also unload my own freight. Sonia who works at receiving desk is awesome!!! Everyone is not as friendly but thats not my concern Im just there to deliver so I look at 2 hours and Im out
3 hours early no complaints door in the gate 20 minutes later started unloading great place or i get lucky Thanks
