Safeway is a grocery store located at 10104 River Rd in Potomac, MD, offering a convenient and friendly shopping experience. It provides a wide selection of groceries, including a bakery with customizable cakes and cupcakes, a deli with made-to-order items and party trays, a butcher's block with meat and seafood, and a produce department full of fresh fruits and vegetables. For convenience, the store offers Order Ahead pick-up, Grocery Delivery, and DriveUp & Go™ services. It is open late and provides great deals with a club membership, including buy-one-get-one-free offers. The store also carries a selection of trendier health foods alongside standard brands. Reviews note that the store is decent and overall an okay place to go, functioning as a great shopping center in the Potomac market. Many find the store clean and well-stocked with everything needed, and several customers appreciate the added convenience of Western Union services on-site. Feedback on staff is mixed but largely positive, with many describing employees as kind, helpful, very nice, friendly, and going beyond to help customers. One reviewer specifically mentioned a manager who was a gracious host and very nice. However, one critical account described a specific staff member as unhelpful, disrespectful, and condescending, though this was countered by the positive management response. Some customers advise checking items carefully, as there have been instances of expired food and mold on fruits and vegetables, indicating occasional issues with product freshness. Despite these occasional concerns, many shoppers recommend the store for its variety, services, and generally helpful staff.
The fruit was awesome they had pretty much all the fruit you wanted only thing I couldn’t understand is the sales you must have a membership to get a discount and you will get more of a discount if you have it delivered

This is a pretty decent Safeway. You do have to check the food carefully since it may be expired and the fruits/vegetables might have mold on them (I have had a few experiences), but it is overall an okay place to go to. The staff are very nice but I'm not overly pleased with the products and their freshness.
