Benicia Safeway is convenient and their employees are friendly. Its nice that they get to know people and have always sanitized their carts. Unlike Raleys, they have went the extra mile during the pandemic. Only thing is the throwing out of cigarette butts on the ground by some employees.
Easy navigation for the disabled as it is well set up. Just choose your entry.Clean friendly and great quality items A - Z.
The managers one of the nicest women Ive ever met great service.very fast The coupons work great on the app very convenient.
Good exp. Clean store, nice staff
Well Safeway has pulled ahead of Raleys in Benicia. The produce is fresh and clean. Usually have what I need when I need it. Only down side is that it is a small store.
In & out quickly. Got all my stuff. 15 item or less check out line.
This Safeway needs lessons in Customer Service...especially in the self checkout. This place always doesnt have Corona light in stock while Raleys and CVS have them and of you need half and half good luck.This is a 2 star Safeway...or I call this one Barfway.
Great place people are nice helpfull.lets put it this way safest place to shop
I visit here at least twice a week. Theres always long lines and not enough cashiers. They never have specific items Im looking for sometimes for weeks. The people who work there are polite but thats not enough. Im gonna start going to Glen Cove Safeway. Its better. Oh I forgot to mention the produce is way under par.
This store seriously has the MOST friendly staff!! They are super helpful and I always have a great experience here. You are rock stars keep up the good work!!!
Everything you need and a great staff to
Great hot food and meat section
Good to go certain for reasonable items. They seem to carry everything one needs to sustain life. Appreciate the cashiers on the frontline. Kudos to all!
I really like this Safeway. It seems more personable for some reason from most grocery stores that are turning into automated self check out robot machines. Even though they do have a few of them in there. There is always friendly staff to help.
I went in today 6/12/21 @ 3:19pm to buy an older friend some groceries. I had bought the wrong item, so I needed to return the item. Got to the customer service desk waited a few minutes to be asked if I needed something from that area. The heavy set man with very long hair approached me with an unwelcoming attitude, gave me my refund then asked if I had left the store with the item. I said yes, said to me well then its garbage and tossed it in the garbage, with an attitude still. I got no have a great day, no thanks for coming in today. Horrible customer service.
Not our favorite grocery store. It used to be good before it was sold to another corporate slob.
Quick in & out shopping today.
Quite a few people unmasked, and that is a good thing.
Went in to purchase a specific item, it was there. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff.
Over priced for the selection they have and lack of cashiers. Frequently out of stock on needed items. $5.39 for 2 tomatoes? They were semi-fresh. Foodmax in Vallejo does better than that
The Starbucks employees here make the drinks better than an actual starbucks.
More items goes up compared to nearby supermarket..
Prices keep going up, shelves are always stocked well though, needs more cashiers.
I will definitely recommend this grocery shop to everyone because they have the best and affordable products available. Also, the staffs here are very attentive to all of my concerns. I really love to do my groceries here because everything that I needed was all here. Thank you so much, guys! Keep up the beautiful work!
I enjoy the Benicia Safeway. They have excellent sushi to go. A good variety of items. I enjoy shopping here as I have shopped here since the late 1980s. The changes are awesome. Also a story thats easy to navigate. ☺
Nice and great sammiche
Never enough checkers checking customers. It seems like the store itself is never cleaned, always filthy. Most of the checkers are pretty friendly.
Great store, wouldve given 5 stars but always understaffed ?
On Saturday, I purchased a drink at the Starbucks cafe and my barista was Cathleen. She has to be one of the most likable individuals I have ever met! Her demeanor was extraordinarily positive and her presence was an absolute joy! Beyond a wonderful experience!
Had a breakfast sandwich was good was full most of the day, didnt eat my lunch because I was still full 😅
Great layout for finding all your needs!
Very friendly staff and great options.
Ive lived in many cities and this Market disappoints above the rest. They are always shortstaffed. They added DIY checkouts and then must have layed people off, so waiting times are even worse now.
A very nice store friendly clerks.
I went to the self checkout right behind somebody else and no they did not disinfect it before me but there was a lot of customers in there not a lot of staff. If they want stuff disinfected right they should hire more staff to do it.
When choosing between this Safeway and the larger (Southampton) Raleys, ask yourself which one found itself in the news for failing to follow COVID restrictions -- and then join me at Safeway instead.
Excellent deli!!
Deli employees helped me find the raw pizza dough I was looking for. Very friendly and helpful.
Good clean store plenty of parking friendly service prices arent low but this is the Bay area
If its not on the shelf they do not have it. They dont have a store room
If you are willing to use Safeways Just For U app it can save you a lot of money on the things you already buy. It also rewards you for shopping by giving you $0.10 off up to 25 gallons of gas for every $100 you spend.
The pace at which every employee, especially deli, works at, is appallingly slow. My 85 year old grandmother can make a sandwich faster. Often times every-day items are out of stock. The bathrooms are disgusting. I will from now on be avoiding this Safeway at all costs.
Its noon and they have one person in the Deli🤦♂️ Seems like management would add atleast one more when theres a line forming. Id go next door if the restaurant was open.
Clean and convenient.
Love the ready to eat fresh fruits and veggies,quick check out make for a pleasant trip.
My local market, I to go there because is close and I can find fresh produce, dairy and good bakery. Friendly people, good service at the deli. not so friendly at the meats.
Great customer service, especially that one guy from self check out.
Clean, well stocked, and good customer service.
Nice store with good selection, overpriced!
Always friendly and helpful
Its really chill in here in the morning
Get your groceries here.
Love our hometown store.. but missing the most amazing cashier.. Vic Jackson.. he made everybody smile, saved me a lot of money teaching me how to do just4u.. people like that are hard to find!!
This is an older small Safeway. Because the store is small and they dont have storage for stock, they often run out of merchandise, especially around holidays. The location is more convenient and parking is easier than at the competition. The prices are also better than the competition but you must be prepared for them to be out of stock on items on your list. The store is clean and employees are helpful & friendly.
Everyone here is rude and kind of only thinks for themselves. Lines are always long. And certain food is always out of stock (donuts).But the cashiers are very kind and talkative. I would recommend going here very early in the morning.
Killer store...the meat dept has a great selection and produce is outstanding...and the cleaning they do is wonderful, carts are clean....I will start comin to town and shopping there...yippee
Great to start a day and buy a lunch to go.
Safer and cleaner than any gd Safeway in Vallejo. All I want is groceries but the morons in Vallejo always want to start something while you wait in line. Imagine trying to enforce the mask rule in Vallejo. Bah!
Doesnt always have items that Im looking for.
Horrible experiences each time I go. Most managers and staff are unprofessional and lack customer service. I live 1 block away and try my hardest to not go to this store. 10-15 years ago, it was not like this. It was my preferred store. I’m sure with the management change it brought a lack of professionalism.
Its a great smaller store . Easy in and out I get tired of the huge stores. Quick and easy to shop
They have a decent selection
Much better than Raleys,, always helpful and friendly employees
Always the best food in town .... Always long lines ☹️
Love their service. Managers very patient with everything going on inside store and OUTSIDE. Love the old cashiers too.
Friendly clearks at the store
Love this Safeway...I stop here every morning on my way to work to get my breakfast sandwich & my lunch for work. The ladies there make my breakfast sandwich / burrito perfectly every time.
Visit was too Starbucks counter. In and out
Great place always fully stocked
Excellent variety of all items. Good to sign up for the membership
The worst ever. 20 min behind 2 customers. Locked the door I came in at 6:00 pm. Dont go. They are the worst!
This place usually disappoints. Lines are long and some (not all) staff have poor training in customer service.
Crowded isles and longer lines the most stores, but at least the cashiers are quick.
Employees are very helpful and friendly.😇
It is a convenient place to shop. After that it goes downhill. The lines are horrendous. There are never enough cashiers. Then the cashiers get into long drawn out conversations. Which is ok if its empty but when the line is 4 deep need to move the line. The aisle are narrow and then displays are placed in the aisle blocking it up. The veggies can be a bit old and the fish can stink up the front corner of the store. The bathrooms can be rough too.
Its my daily stop before work. The good folks at the deli are always there to assist me in a timely manner. As well as Cassandra at the Starbucks in the store.
Usually great visits, we find most of the daily home needs. Most of the employees are friendly and two of the ones at the Starbucks store are super ! They remember my name and my favorite addiction .
Helpful, courteous & experienced staff. Limited space, but clean & grocery items are usually stocked.
This store always has long lines.... and they discontinue carrying items that customers buy frequently....and theyre always out of stock on popular items.... frustrating!!! On the bright side though... most of their checkers are awesome.
Got what I needed! In and out 20 minutes! Love our Safeway!
Very limited options with cleaning supplies
Safeway is okay for $5 Friday, the manager meat specials are best in the morning.
They have a nice store but never enough checkers or it would be 5 stars.😎
This Safeway has a nice deli and the lines werent too long. The AFC sushi lady was super mice and helpful.
Love the checkers BUT they never have enough at checkout. Benicia Safeway needs a new manager, then maybe Id give more stars.
Their price and selection isnt as easy as Walmart, but it is convenient on my way to work during late evenings. The workers are mostly friendly and helpful. Pleasant neighborhood.
Good.
Not the greatest selection of Fathers Day cards... But I found one. Clean, newly renovated, and a quick line
Good store. Nice variety
This is specifically intended for the Benicia Safeway. After saying this the last several times my family stopped here, I think we have officially had our last visit. There are consistently a shortage of checkout staff to the point where checking out averages more than 15 minutes. On top of frequent out of stock staples items and food past its expiration date, our business is headed elsewhere!
Got everything I needed quickly.
My goto Store Great selection
Shelves are really empty. Almost as bad as when this all started.
Short on inventory, only 2 cashiers open, in line for 10 minutes to purchase 8 items and decided to leave.
It seems to be a trend with Safeway to not have enough help at the registers. No self check outside, no Express lanes just 3 registers. I bought 3 items and was in line for 15 mins. Food selection is always complete and good but customer service no good and no way to check yourself out...trapped!
Rude employees. They are to busy gossiping about other employees and then Celeste and Luci had the nerve to get to know tell people that they are to busy to help them. I wanted to find the employee that they were gossiping about and repeat everything I heard .
As a first time visitor to this store, I was very impressed with how clean and easy it was to find items. Very nice!
