One of my favorite things had been was the Salad Sampler: 4 selection for $4.99. A great chance with a couple of favorites and a couple of items you have a chance to try ones you may -- or may not -- like. If I find I didnt end like one, there were still samplers that I would like, and have a running list of single selections.I was looking at my choices; including some ones of meatballs. I wasnt sure about the meatballs, if this I would like it.But, hey, thats the point of a selection!However, the server said no. The server didnt think the selection for only items. Not only some things, but not other things.So, I didnt take anything, leaving 3/4 items I got a lot less altogether. Guess the selection is a bit of a bait-n-switch.
If you want to shop somewhere folks wear masks and are considerate of others— don’t shop here!!! Staff doesn’t enforce the Washington state EMERGENCY MASK MANDATE. Super lame!
I would rate higher if it werent for the fact that I ordered my daughters cake for Friday, but got it Saturday.I even asked the gentleman if Friday was too soon, since it was Thursday. He said no.When I had the picture dropped off, the bakery was closed. So no one knew anything about the cake. Leaving them too uncomfortable to leave the picture with unknowing hands.Then the bakery calls me on Saturday asking about the picture.I tell her that I had ordered it for Friday not Saturday and she seems totally unconcerned or even apologetic about that fact that my daughters party was ruined.Oh, but they still tried to charge me $6 for a photo cake that had no photoTheir cakes are absolutely amazing though.They need to bring back whipping cream icing
Love the store and most of the employees but it rubs me the wrong way that the whole deli department has several employees with their masks around their chin, we have these protocols for a reason.
I was in on Monday morning Nov. 1st around 10:30. I just had a few items and even though the check-out lines were a little busy I got in line anyway as I HATE self-check out for a myriad of reasons and I really don’t mind waiting. Well a young lady by the name of Jen M wasn’t having it and she came over snd got me out of the line and insisted on helping me with self-check even though I told her I hated it. She was charming and hysterically funny and I enjoyed the banter back and forth with her. She is definitely a keeper folks. I don’t often shop at Bellingham Safeway as I live on the other side of town and I don’t drive but I walked over there because it was a nice day out. Sadly because I was giggling so much l left some of my items there by mistake but that’s on me and I did get what I actually came for so no big deal. I just wanted to give kudos to Jen M and thank her for her great customer service and cracking me up. Sincerely, The old lady in the blue down jacket who couldn’t get any brown mushrooms. Ha ha!
Very clean and decent parking. Has a Starbucks cafe inside too.
Decent store. Not the best not the worst. They have terrible signal in their building for some reason. Cant use any of their digital coupons because as soon as I enter the store 0 bars, no signal. In the parking lot, full coverage.
Nice shopping experience but some empty shelves and little bit high prices. Great bread selection full sized with most anything if in stock.
Great selection of everything. Convenient location with lots of other businesses in close proximity. Fast service and on the bus line.
Always have what I am looking for. Easy to find what you are looking for.
They always seem to have the best selection of everything often new products that other stores are not carrying . Great produce section that is easier to maneuver than Freddys. I try to go in the mornings during the pandemic it becomes pretty busy in the afternoons.
Safeway looks much nicer than it used to. The prices are low and it is good food, not as good as trader Joes.
Exactly what I want they have 8 out of 10 times. Good deals on meats fish. And advise is at the ready.
They have really good sushi and Chinese food and great produce
Clean store, friendly staff. They back up their products (we had some bad fruit and was able to get a refund on it) l was there about 9am and found this is the best time. It got a little busy when l finished. Requested help out with my order, which was cheerfully done by a sweet young lady.
Reasonable prices, well organized, and friendly staff.
Only Safeway in Bellingham, usually well stocked. Nice, clean operation
I dont understand why, but every Safeway store Ive ever been in STINKS like poor quality seafood. It hits you as soon as you walk in the front door. Other than the stink, this is a good store with mostly stocked shelves and OK pricing.
Good selection, could use a bit more variety and produce was very expensive
Its a safeway, fast and easy if you know what you want
Love that theyre open during the late hours of the night to early hours of the morning, considering I like to do my grocery shopping when the store isnt so over-crowded. Most often its empty during these hours, so I get room to roam the big isles and dont get the funny looks if I happen to think out-loud about my meal plans. ..lol. Could do with a little more sales and coupon offers, but definitely my top five stores in whatcom county.
Its a really nice Safeway with more stuff than I expected. And they got the fresh sushi poppin yum
You know Im a winco guy but Safeway is cool too decent selection and decent prices as long as you got the card.
Clean and with decent value if you shop for stuff on sale.
Much better prices and food seems better than the market at Birch Bay square.
Great store, great employees.Unfortunately the store director Craig is extremely unfriendly and dismissive. This is also evident by the fact that he has been moved to this store from another because of a physical altercation with another employee during a disagreement.And yes this review is purely to let people know who is running this store.
Always great at Safeway. Im biased. My daughter works there. 😂
Standard Safeway store. Decent sized store with some variety. Ok parking but a little hard to find.
There is a very kind African American lady in the flower department. She is always so cordial and helpful.There is a white lady in the flower department with dark hair who was pretty sarcastic to me today. Try to learn from your nice coworker maybe. Five stars for nice lady, star lost for sarcastic lady.
This Safeways sushi chef seriously deserves a raise. By far the best sushi Ive ever gotten from a grocery store.
Okay selection and prices. Good produce
This is always a great store to find food items for many occasions.
Our Safeway is not close to us so we dont go there often but if there is a special item that Fred Meyer to doesnt have well go the extra miles. Safeway is clean well ordered with wide isles and good fresh produce and specialty items. Wish it was closer.
Clean, well stocked, quick and happy
Love this store always have just what i want
I am always surprised when I get a good morning or good afternoon! They always surprise me and I appreciate it.
Clean, well organized, efficient staff
I always enjoy shopping here. Its clean well stocked and the staff are friendly and helpful. Lots of parking, located in a shopping center.
Best meat and prices in town friendliest employees
Always nice people to serve you.
Very nice store.It reminds me of a Haggens atmosphere.I went looking for bulk foods, didnt have any. I found some good sales though on candy.
Super helpful and friendly staff. Although this is on the other side of town they had better quality and price, so I will be back.
Great store. Everything I wanted.
This is really good store to shop.
Very nice people there. The parking lot was Awful.
Very clean store and very nice produce!!!
Ive had several unfavorable experiences with Safeways Drive-Up & Go. My instructions are often not followed, so many times, I dont get items that I need even when I call ahead to make sure they are put on hold for me. Items that Im told (over the phone) are in stock, are listed as out of stock in my Drive-Up & Go purchase. Several times, Ive tried for between 15-30 minutes to get a hold of someone, just to let them know that Im there to pick up my order. Quite a few times, Ive had to call the store directly, and ask for assistance. The wait time is just unacceptable. The repetitive nature of these issues definitely frustrates me. I understand that they may be short-handed, but I dont think Im asking for anything extraordinary. It might be time to shop around.
You guys really need to have someone at the door making sure that customers arent just wearing masks, but wearing them correctly. Every time I go in there, I see multiple people either not wearing a mask or not wearing it over their nose.This threatens my health and the vulnerable clients I work with every day.
Safeway Always has a great selection and people ready to help.
Clean and friendly, helpful staff.
Safeway is something different than the monopoly of Haggens. Much appreciate the variety and prices of items and the gas station availability. Good place to work and shop.
Nice store well maintained beautiful service!
Good produce and selections of meat. A little but pricey but thats okay. Overall staff is super friendly and helpful
On a nice day its a great place
Always enjoy the fresh deli food for lunch.
Before entering I assumed that this couldnt be my primary grocery store, but now Im not so sure.... They have a wide variety of items, including produce and everyday staples. I was particularly surprised by the excellent selection of vegetarian frozen prepared foods (e.g. frozen dinner - type items) at excellent prices.
Always clean and the employees are always helpful and friendly.
Descent prices, and seem to have what I need in stock.
Great! CLEAN AND NOT CROWDED!!
Have great deals
We shop during off times so it was very slow and the grocery shelves was well stocked.
Very clean and very nice employees
Very clean store, well organized, helpful employees.
Sad experience not with the employees who works there but a customer they had to deal with in front of me was a very angry ole lady who should do here grocery shopping online and puck up in the parking lot if she is so SCARED if this COVID. Instead this ole lady thinks everyone should put her on a peddle stool and jump to her command (smh). Sorry that any kind of business needs to deal with people like this ole lady. STAY HIME if you dont want to bed near people who may accidentally bump into you!!!
I love that I can order online and do curbside pickup. It was so easy!
Very friendly atmosphere here, the employees they smile and acknowledge you when you need help.
The big Baker potatoes, that are lose were rotten. Ruined are filet mignon night.
Our hometown Safeway has the best people and the best and kindest manager. I look forward to going shopping here because the atmosphere is so positive!
The traffic in the area is a deterrent to my wanting to go there on a regular basis
Nice hard working people
Very Nice > UPDATEd 2Day So Far So GoodMost items Needed R Easy 2 Find/Get AnyNot Just Ask 1 In Store = Tell or Take U 2Where Items AtMore LaterAfter EXPLORATION Of Whole Store as Is ANew 1 In Town
Prices are cheaper sometimes at other stores but overall okay hotfood, very friendly staff, sometimes a strange loss prevention guy ( I once thought was being a peeping tom at some lady 😆 but was watching her steal, he was not inconspicuous!), the prouduce is great, the meat is great, love the discount racks always. Dont like the closing one door at night but what else can u do with all the thieving around and less night staff.
THE BEST ILL ALWAYS DO MY SHOPPING ❤️ THEREEVER SINCE THE FIRST WERE IN IDAHO
Good stock position, easy pickup.
Haraased about not having a mask. Mask nazis on every corner even if you have a medical condition. Wont be shopping here for a while, terrible customer service.
It was very busy. I didnt like the arrows saying you can only enter aisles a certain way. Overall, found what I needed. A decent experience.
The pharmacist and pharmacy staff were excellent - Liz and Surinder - help me with my Daughters Rx by calling my home pharmacy to get the billing information. Thanks Liz and Surinder. This place is huge. Theres so many different choices from produce, premium liquor, Hispanic and Asian foods and ingredients. They have just about anything.
Clean and well stocked
Love the selection, prices and service.
Love the variety of organic food
Got some good chicken strips and tea for lunch.
This is the worst store in bellingham there No cell service whats so ever. there could be an emergency and you wont be able to get any calls, they have the app just for U. but you cant even use it in store because theres no cell service unless you connect to there wifi. so thats not secure. customer service was pour i waited 10 mins in line while 2 people where helping one person while every one stood in line. we all left.
It has rapidly declined. Customer service is non-existent and their shelves are often empty.
Great location. Frequent specials. Quality service and value.
Great meat department and deli case. Very clean store.
Safeway always has what I need. Customer service is great!
Some great deals to be hadAnd, truthfully, I have to avail myself of all I can these days.
Great products, excellent values, friendly people.
I love Safeway but can only afford to shop there using their extensive coupons. I usually save between 20 to 60 percent. It helps.
Best bang for your coupons+ EBT Buck
Always good
Cleanliness needs to happen more!
Its a clean store with good service. The only thing that wasnt perfect was the produce section. Some of the fruit looked out of date. Overall though it was still good.
Great service. Excellent selection
Good. Got everything I needed
