Safeway is a neighborhood grocery store offering a convenient and friendly experience. It features a deli, bakery, fresh produce, and a floral department with exclusive products. Services include Order Ahead pick-up, Grocery Delivery, and DriveUp & Go™ to save time. The staff, including security, are frequently described as friendly and helpful. The store provides a typical Safeway layout with familiar services and items. Some customers find the produce section to be very good and appreciate finding specific ingredients or discounted items. However, the store receives mixed feedback. Common criticisms include high prices, especially without a rewards card, and long checkout times, particularly in the evening, with often only one or two cashiers working. The self-checkout area is sometimes closed. While the prepared food from the deli receives praise, there was an isolated complaint about food safety. The presence of people loitering outside is noted but generally not blamed on the store. The pharmacy service receives a specific negative recommendation. For some, it is a convenient last-resort option, but the pricing prevents them from relying on it as a primary grocery store.
So as of late there is typically not enough checkers working at any given tine. Long lines coupled with customer service that can come across rude at times is not what i expect from a shopping experience.

Very nice produce. Got apricots like I haven't had since I picked them fresh off a tree.
