Safeway is a convenient and friendly grocery store located on a busy stretch of NE 85th Street in Kirkland, close to I-405. This larger location offers a better selection than others, with a full produce department of fresh fruits and veggies, an assortment of meat and seafood at the butcher-block, and a bakery featuring customizable cakes. The deli offers a variety of party trays, made to order. For quick service, the self-checkout machines are easy to use. The store provides time-saving options like Grocery Delivery, DriveUp & Go™, and Order Ahead pick-up for bakery items. While the hot food offerings have changed, the customer service is consistently noted as great, with staff going above and beyond. Parking at the location is plentiful and easy.
Love the pharmacy! They do a bang up job. There is a young woman in front end with dark hair, a manager I think, she is very rude. I might not shop here anymore if she continues to be around. I experienced her ugliness again yesterday.

I love this store. There is, however, a very unpleasant young woman who works up front, maybe a supervisor. She is very rude every time I come in. I do not want to shop anymore if she is working. I get all my meds and groceries from here but she was so ugly to me yesterday am rethinking where I shop.

Long way to go just to pick up a work truck to drive back to another Safeway
