I have been shopping at Winco since they opened in Spokane. Have always shopped there because of prices and selection.Last few times I have been in the store, I have noticed an uptick in the friendliness of the employees. I have even been asked if I needed help finding something.

I really didn't like the consultant's behavior. She came up to us because we needed help and told me an insult! Then I didn't want to help us while I was around! I didn't like it very much.

Seems WinCo is no longer 'employee operated' . . . if you buy stock as an employee than you are in, otherwise you are just a worker. Sad.

Prices and selection are good but I won't be back soon. Winco is making very little effort to encourage following the mask mandate. Many people were not masked. I skipped a few aisles due to so many peolpe without masks. Even saw a store emloyee stocking shelves with no mask on.

Good prices and the store looked great however there were at least 10 people shopping not wearing masks despite the big sign on the door that requires masks. It would be nice if they would enforce it now that infection rates are on the rise again and we are at risk of going back to faze 2. The people who refuse to wear masks are the biggest complainers about wearing masks and they are the ones that are causing it to drag on. Very frustrating.

Usually i like the wincos in portland so i tried it out, but the last time we went in a bunch of employees were not wearing a mask while stocking food items, i decided not to buy anything today cus i saw an employee without a mask cough on a product, and a couple dudes walked like within a yard of us without their masks, gross. I literally have asthma and use two types of inhalers and can wear a mask all day at my job, so i don't get what the excuse is. If you can't do basic toddler stuff for sanitations sake you probably should not work around food products.

Tried the self-service check-out, the person who was working in the area has not sense of customer service. As she put it people are just to stupid to use the self-check out. I set my basket in the wrong area so I was stupid for that. Sorry for coming in. I was in a hurry to get out and as usual the lines to check out were long-as always not enough people to take ring customers up. This non-customer support person should know not everyone uses the self check-out and this is something new. If she's wants to get anal about it perhaps WinCo is not for her.

They claim it is employee-owned but that seems more of a gimmick than reality, but it is not important to the rating. Can they set policy and share in profits - a small once a year bonus is not the same as true profit sharing. If they can't, as a group, make unique changes to their store, they are NOT owners. If they don't share in profits, they are NOT owners. Canned goods, cereal, etc have decent prices although their generic canned food is significantly lower quality than generics from Fred Meyer, for example. Probably worse than Walmart's nasty generic brand. Produce is abysmal. Low quality, doesn't last long. Not good. Meats are hit and miss, but prices are decent. Wait for a sale at Fred Meyer and you can get much better quality at similar cost. Large selection though and they have things that aren't as commonly found elsewhere. They have lots of trash meats for various types of fishing bait. That is a big plus in my book. Their "fresh" seafood is anything but fresh. Their frozen fish is hit and miss. Most of their frozen packaged stuff is subpar, even taking into consideration the low quality of packed frozen stuff. The generic frozen vegetables are abysmal. They do carry frozen cornish game hens and things like that which are becoming rare elsewhere. Grocery store bakeries are bad, this is no exception. Scratch that, it is lower quality than average, better than the crap at the Walmart bakery but that is a very low bar. That bar may be buried a few feet underground. Large bulk food selection of wildly varying quality. If you spend a lot of time you can find decent stuff, that might not be stale or just plain ancient. Their deli blows chunks but they have things like cheddar cheese in the deli that is alright for the price. It doesn't matter where you go: cheddar, colby, jack, etc are simply low quality "cheeses" but for the price the cheddar that is not in a normal commercial package is acceptable for such things. Kids will eat it and those types are infinitely better than that fake "American 'Cheese'". The deli has fake "Chinese food" packaged up. Avoid it, unless you want to spend the evening in the bathroom, assuming you can choke it down. Non-food items are ridiculously expensive and much of it is extremely low quality. Avoid! It is an okay place to stock up on non-perishables. Store is always kind of dirty. Cashiers are always undermanned. Waiting in lines takes forever. Having to bag your own groceries is ridiculous. Do what the military commissary does, allow volunteer baggers that can accept tips, if you are too cheap to hire a few kids to bag groceries. It is not like you need more than 2 or 3 since you never have more lanes up than that anyway. They make up the discounted, low quality foods by trying to get you to buy over the counter medication, TP, bags, etc at massively inflated prices. Don't fall for it! If you live within 10 minutes it is worth it to go to stock up on canned goods and then go to a quality store for meats, dairy and produce. It is not worth the drive if you are much further than that. I might stop by if I am in the area and I need canned stuff. It is always a depressing visit, for some reason it feels dark inside, must be the dirtiness and general dour demeanor of it alleged "owners". There are certainly one or two grocery stores in the valley that are worse, but not more than that.

Huge selection, great prices, huge bulk section that I use regularly, wide aisles (YES!), and great customer service almost every time. I have a disability so when I have a really big order they happily help me take & load my order to my car. Even the insane evening before Thanksgiving, great customer service! My favorite place to shop. (I went once to the other WinCo- very disappointing.)

This is the only 24 hour grocery store within a five mile radius. When you have a sick family member and have to run out in the middle of the night to go get them supplies, it would be great if you could walk in the building without having to watch someone doing their business just outside the front door. On top of that, they did not have what I needed. No one in the store offered to help me find what I was looking for. I was standing in an aisle that was being stocked for five minutes looking for something and not once was I asked if I needed help. So not only did I not feel safe about walking into this store after midnight because the parking lot was not well lit and some guy was peeing on the building, no one on the staff seemed to want to be helpful and get me out of this creepy location faster. Ended up driving elsewhere and finding what I needed. Next time I need something in the middle of the night, I know where NOT to shop.

I love shopping here. This grocery store has good produce at fantastic prices. I will be shopping here until the day I die.
