Safeway at 1451 W Covell Blvd in Davis, CA offers a convenient and friendly grocery experience. The store has a wide selection of groceries, bakery, deli, and fresh produce. The bakery features customizable cakes, cupcakes, and more, while the deli offers a variety of party trays. Customers can place bakery orders online through the Order Ahead service. The store also has a butcher's block with an assortment of meat and seafood, and a produce department full of fresh fruits and vegetables. For added convenience, Safeway provides Grocery Delivery and DriveUp & Go services. However, some customers have had negative experiences at the self-checkout. Employees have been known to approach customers, force them to give a high customer service rating, and ask for a phone number to receive a discount - all without the customer's consent. Additionally, some employees have overstepped boundaries by touching the customers' screens, groceries, and telling them what to do, even when the customers were perfectly capable of completing their transactions independently. Overall, this Safeway location is well-stocked, clean, and in a safe area, but needs to improve its self-checkout customer service practices to provide a more positive and respectful experience for all shoppers.
I appreciate the friendly and helpful customer service I've had over the years from this Safeway -- in particular, their long-time cashier Mary Beth has been great. She is always super kind and goes above and beyond.

I always come here to get Kombutcha fruit bowls. There is always an aroma of fresh produce here. I wish they sold live lobster here 🦞
