An accessible place to buy what you need such as fruits and vegetables, beef, fish and seafood and many more things, as well as discounted items

I like the fredmeyer rewards program and there are some great deals here, but service is questionable. I asked the security guard a direct question, and he flat out ignored me. Staff ("managers") were gossiping on the floor, and when I asked a question, they gave unclear directions. I felt like I was bothering them -- no one seems to want to help or even smile. I left my cart at the end of an aisle because I saw they were stocking it and didn't want to get in the way; when I came back, an employee was using my shopping cart as a workstation...

This is one of the biggest (and best) Fred Meyer locations in Portland. They have EVERYTHING. Groceries, health food, huge clothing section, shoes, accessories, home goods, tools, toys, car stuff, art stuff, gardening stuff, furniture, makeup, vitamins/supplements, etc etc etc. I remember when I was a kid, the Fred Meyer commercials had a song that went “what’s on your list today? You’ll find it at Fred Meyer!” And it still rings true to this day.This location has had to adapt to all of the changes the city is going through right now… the insane amount of shoplifting and crime everywhere. I don’t fault FM whatsoever for doing what they have to do (I.e, closing all but one entrance after a certain hour, hiring security guards and having your receipt checked at the door) All the security guards are soooo nice, as are all the employees I’ve ever interacted with. I’m glad FM is taking steps to curb the shoplifting in their stores, rather than just up and leaving like Target did.One last thing — I want to commend them for having every single register open in the days leading up to Christmas. I’ve never seen the parking lot that full before, and I was terrified the lines were going to be so long inside. But I waited less than 5 minutes in line to checkout, and that’s because they had literally every single check stand open, and every check stand had a bagger. You guys did it right!

Good selection but being treated with constant suspicion that your shop lifting is absolutely ridiculous. I’d shop at Walmart if I wanted to deal with receipt checkers and shopping carts locking up. Won’t be back.

Hey Fred Meyer, treating your paying customers like they’re criminals is really gross ? I had finished at self checkout and literally all I did was put my reusable bag next to my items. The screen starts flashing and an employee has to come over to WATCH FOOTAGE OF ME MOVING MY BAG. It shouldn’t feel like I’m walking into “1984”when I’m just trying to buy groceries.This level of surveillance makes me incredibly uncomfortable and I will NOT be shopping here again.So much for your friendly neighborhood Fred Meyer. Seems like they’re ready to tackle you if you can’t show them the receipt for your milk fast enough.

Best Fred Meyer in the Portland area, they lose two stars for the security theatre at the door, leaving the store, and for the stuff locked behind glass. It’s annoying and I now buy these caged items online. Also, some weekday mornings there are tons of department heads/executive types in the aisles mucking stuff up, and generally being in the way. Looks like they are holding meetings in the aisles. Sigh.

Oh, the drama! They've donned their Sherlock Holmes hats in the grocery store universe. Yes, if they suspect you might be a provisions pilferer, they unleash their formidable security checks. They send out their very own secret agent employee, It's like being in a real-life espionage thriller!But there's more! The armed guardian of the receipts, a true Renaissance person, not only ensures your purchase proof is safe but also manages to provide expert commentary on the store's checkout staffing that could rival a TED Talk.It's not just a shopping trip; it's a cinematic adventure, folks!

Update: FM did eventually give me credit but what a painful experience. Initially said my credit was only 1/3 of what it should have been. Won’t shop here if I can get what I need elsewhere.Only my second time shopping at FM. Didn’t find out until I got to the register (almost an hour of shopping) that their reward system wasn’t working. I plan my shopping around available discounts and coupons. Even the payment system wasn’t working correctly, kept saying chip error. My card works fine everywhere else, their card slot was so loose it didn’t hold the card properly. Then the receipt printed at the bottom that I would have saved so many dollars if I had been a member (plus there would have been quite a few more savings in coupons.) Supposedly they will honor the discounts I should have received if I bring the receipt back - very inconvenient.

Fred Meyer is the embodiment of existential dread. Either I'm wandering beneath the fluorescent lights in a disassociated state of listlessness, or I'm anxiously navigating aisles, trying hard not to be in anyone's way.They also have become their own police state sanctioned by daddy Wheeler himself. Nothing screams dystopia like shopping while encumbered by surveillance screens, uniformed security guards tracking your comings and goings, and gates and fences that remind you what the uber-wealthy see you as, valuable yet disposable livestock.Also, I once had an employee blow up at me because I asked them politely if they could move out of the way. The encounter culminated in the implication that I should off myself. While I don't blame them for their misery, the unprovoked nature of the confrontation against my own, already fragile mental state left me pretty shaken up.I spent the next hour and a half crying in my car in the parking lot underneath the blue light and watchful eye of a mobile surveillance trailer (colloquially known as a "lot cop").1/10 in terms of places to cry. Not private at all. Even if you can hide your tears from other patrons, you can't hide your tears from Big Brother who doesn't give a flying fart about you, but will somehow probably profit off the data of you crying in your car.

Nothing is stocked or where you expected to be. Go somewhere else if you're in a hurry because this place will waste your time with not having the things that you're looking for and staff that doesn't know where things are.For whoever is responding to these reviews please explain to me why I went through nine checkout Lanes to find peppermint Altoids and only found empty boxes, should I have gathered all those boxes and presented them to a store associate? Or is that maybe their job to notice and take care of? Exactly the same situation happened when I was looking for iced coffee, you were completely out in the cold section and the coffee aisle was being reformatted in a way that didn't indicate where the coffee had been relocated. These are not insignificant details because these problems appear elsewhere in the store; it's a very simple concept either you can do your job or I will spend my money somewhere else where it is convenient for me to shop. Save your Hollow apologies and condolences for someone who cares, I think that it's better to inform other potential Shoppers that they are wasting their time in your store than to listen to your nonsense. If you cared and didn't want to just apologize for messing up you would maintain your store properly. Shape Up

shopping here gives me sympathy for the unibomber, a capitalistic hellscape bent on extorting the poor for basic necessities. Never have I been in a store so confusing to find the most basic things, and my money is used to create a dystopian amount of useless security, cameras, and vast nothingness of parking lots. This place sucks so bad, and every single employee looks dead in the eyes from working here

Spend your money at Trader Joe's or New Season's nearby. Better quality produce, for example, for typically the same price. Even grab a Costco membership to save you more for bulk. All these stores have better quality.Quite a shame that customers are treated like criminals when I've witnessed some dude walk off with a pumpkin. Random (but not random) receipt checks. Spending my hard earned cash elsewhere. Armed guards. Security bars are now installed to herd you like sheep.Some of the workers are amazing. Baristas are typically kind as well. Other employees are simply protected by the union and security is not there for your safety - just for the interest of the Kroger. I will support someone else's salary.
