“I can get specialty items like a bag of tomatillos or jalapeno peppers. Mangoes were on sale and were plump. Avocados 🥑 were a good size. Good selection of cheese and meat. Cheaper than Safeway.”
“Love this local business and I want to give them a big shout out for their commitment to high quality chocolate. They have an entire island dedicated to excellent chocolate bars with lots of bean to bar options. They feature local chocolate makers and international ones making chocolate bars with cacao beans grown all over. You can really taste the difference in cacao if you buy a couple of bars of the same percentage and try them side by side—Belize, Uganda, Colombia, Vietnam, Ecuador, Tanzania… it’s like a little model UN in chocolate form.”
“While waiting for my to-go order, I came to Sun Valley Fine Food to kill some time. The sandwich counter was closed at around 7pm. It might be because of holiday hours. My haul was a small pesto pasta for about $3, some Ruffles chips $5 and a six pack of Coke Zero for $7. No wait at the cashier.”
“It’s handy and it’s convenient and I love the pay job outside. I’d like to support local businesses I do they just need to get some pistachios and I’ll be a customer for life.”
“It's a small grocery store that has a good assortment of canned, box foods, they also have a refrigerator section with milk, eggs, bacon, assorted meats and cheese for sandwiches, frozen sandwiches and burritos, frozen dinners etc. Also soda and beer, ice cream if you don't want to deal with going to a big supermarket, you can go there, get in and out quickly.”
“I recently went here for a sandwich after reading some great reviews on Nextdoor. They totally lived up to the hype. The ingredients are very fresh & the service is amazing. Definitely making this my go-to sandwich spot.”
“Clean and organized. My local Safeway is the best. When I visit out of state I look for a Safeway. I know Safeway. I trust Safeway. Thank you for a great grocery store.”
“I always go here as this is closer to my neighborhood. Good price as long as you catch the weekly ads. Good service specially the deli workers. Morning cashier have attitude mostly the older ladies. I usually go here because of convenient.”
“This Shout out is for Caitlin!! I’m not even sure if I spelled the name right, but I haven’t met a kinder human that was more generous with their time …. . What a gem!”
“I can’t say a bad thing about Safeway I like Safeway I always have. This is the Safeway in my neighborhood so I won’t say anything bad about them. I like their coupon system. I like the app I like everything about it. I like saving money at Safeway love, Safeway.”
“I drive to this specific Safeway in Pacifica from SF. I use the Safeway app in advance to know exactly what they have in stock and get a general idea of how much I will be paying. Outside, it is clean and there is parking. (Coming from SF this means a lot- this means there are no piles of garbage in the parking lot or in the shopping carts) There are employees who help me find what I need- I've spoken to the wonderful lady in the dairy yogurt section and the meat/fish counter. Both employees have gone out of their way to help me find specific items. I've also noticed that the bakery section has items that the Safeway in Westlake and other areas don't have- like the cute cookies n cream bar cake or the extra berry/whipped cream garnishes that are added to the cake slices. And finally, the man who handles the self check out area is polite, helpful and low-key. I have to agree with another reviewer that this a "comfort" Safeway for me, a functioning store with appropriate customers and employees. So, take heed, if you come to this store, let's try to keep it this way!! :)!”

Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market.

Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country.
