Supermarkets
“I shop regularly at the PCC Columbia City Co-op and I appreciate the quality of food and the wonderful staff, from the person who stacks the chard so perfectly, to every cashier who is friendly and helpful.
And for the person who came to my door yesterday wanting me to sign a petition against the store because he thinks the rules against wearing political signs etc. are not fair, grow up! Every store has rules on behavior, dress, etc and you have the freedom work elsewhere..”
“I love the store you can go there and you can find all kind of different stuff they have interesting stuff there they have gotten a little bit more pricier than they used to be but sometimes it's worth going up there for the fresh vegetables.”
“I still miss the Houghton Market days in a real way—there was something about it that felt more local and unpolished, like it belonged fully to that corner of Kirkland in a way that’s hard to replicate once a place gets absorbed and refined.
Metropolitan Market kept a lot of the spirit, but it definitely shifted into something more elevated and curated. The bones are familiar, but the texture changed. That’s probably why it still hits nostalgia so strongly—you can recognize what it used to be underneath what it’s become.
And honestly, that’s why it feels a little frustrating there isn’t a stronger presence up north in Snohomish or Everett. It’s exactly the kind of market that would do well there: good prepared foods, strong deli culture, and a “treat yourself but also grab dinner” vibe that just isn’t really replicated in the same way in that area.”
“Nice grocery store. Good soup selection. As always, seafood soups -Cioppino and Clam Chowder- are located in the seafood section, separate from other soups. I couldn't find an indoor seating area, looks like they just have a few picnic tables outside by the main road.”
“SAFEWAY is just a few blocks away from my apartment and I always enjoy the great employees.
Store is always nice and clean and it's easy to maneuver through the store.
I especially like when their Signature Select Pistachio Ice Cream is on sale 🤣”
“My favorite grocery store in the area. Always clean and organized, all the employees have been great and security is very nice. I enjoy grabbing lunch here after running errands, and the frequent clearance items make it affordable!
My only minor complaint would be that the automatic scanner at the entrance door doesn’t seem calibrated properly? maybe one side is broken? It often takes a moment of having to reposition to get it to work for me.”
“These people are nice. I like this store and this neighborhood despite it's shortcoming. Very helpful and friendly staff. Unique food selection (if you have not been to a PCC). High quality goods organic, natural, and locally sourced. It's basically NPR if NPR was a grocery store. It's a CO-OP, SO THEY partner with farms and manufacturer to cut out the middle man and bring you affordable artisan goods, food stuffs and produce.
You know, NPR without the donation drive. Actually. I'm not 100 that they don't have donation drive to sustain themselves, I'm not that informed about their business goings-on and what-not.
Ciao”
