The Safeway at 221 W Heron St in Aberdeen is a busy, convenient grocery store for the community. The bakery receives high praise for being helpful and capable, with one customer noting they expertly remade a customized cake very quickly. The deli is considered great, with specific mention of its popular cheap chicken Monday. The butcher-block offers an assortment of meat and seafood with consistent quality, and the produce department is highlighted for its really good selection and fresh fruits and veggies. The floral department features exclusive products and services. For convenience, the store offers Order Ahead pick-up and DriveUp & Go™, with staff noted for being careful when loading groceries. The overall staff is frequently described as super friendly, great, and competent. Some criticisms involve the checkout process, where customers must pay close attention as digital sale coupons require activation and advertised prices do not always ring up correctly, which could lead to overcharges. Opinions on the pharmacy are mixed; one reviewer reports very long waits and inaccurate counts, while another, a regular user, finds the staff knowledgeable, quick, friendly, and competent, with usually short wait times most of the day. The store is always busy and has good sales to stock up on, providing a generally friendly grocery experience for the neighborhood.
Huge fan of the "Safeway for You" program! I appreciate money saved and the availability of motorized shopping carts. Gas rewards program is greatly appreciated, as well. Sometimes we use reward points for food items.

Joe brought out our pick up order and loaded it into the vehicle for us. He was extremely careful with our groceries and made sure everything was packed well to get it home safely. Always a pleasure shopping at Safeway, thanks to your great staff!
