Quality meat and produce and great grocery selection. Good deals in the giant beer & wine section. Lines are long and slow. Produce can occasionally be sparse between shipments. Great store overall!- I love this grocery store!! It's enormous w/ great selection and prices. Huge wine section. Free 90 min parking in garage when you ask a cashier to validate. I always use self checkout.
Only one non-express lane, one express lane, and self-service open on a Monday night at 7:30. UNACCEPTABLE.
Michelle Parks-RobinsonJuly 5, 2017Conveniently located. Always clean and well stocked. Love Safeway fresh, store packaged produce.
Maria JacksonNovember 17, 2014This safeway has a really good selection of organic and vegetarian/vegan options
Lorraine-Lori JohnsJuly 3, 2014We had friendly cashiers. Found everything we needed in the store. Validated our parking ticket.
SAugust 29, 2012There is a CoinStar machine here. 9.8 cents on the dollar or free to use if you take a gift card to amazon or half a dozen other popular websites.
- Awesome booze selection. Wine and craft beers galore!
Aisles perpetually clogged with pallets (see pic) and large oddly placed product displays. Obstacle course shopping!
rude staff, low quality produce, self-check out lanes at the end of the store are never open, and homeless people will ask you for money outside and inside of the store
A Wells Fargo branch is going in!! I can get some banking, grocery shopping & a coffee all in 1 trip!!
Produce is rarely fresh. Go to the new Giant in CityMarket at O.
barbiFebruary 16, 2011Bring a book & something for the kids to do while waiting in line. Also expect cashiers to be either pissed off or mentally checked out. Keep expectations lower than normal & u wont be disappointed
Underground parking garage...make sure you validate your ticket for free parking :). Be prepared to wait in line. Always crowded....check out at the Starbucks :)
Keep your receipt so the people by the door can scribble on it like TSA agents!
- Tracey S.February 29, 2012Their employees lack basic customer service skills and act like they could care less in general. The actual supermarket is very nice with great food selections, but too cramped in the aisles.
- This place always only has 1 lane open for every 100 people. Prepare to wait... Awhile.
watch out for chatty cashiers...you'll never get home.
Melissa Y.October 8, 2013Journeyed here for ice cream only to find that everything in their freezer is soft and melted and disgusting, DO BETTER
Clerk would not bag groceries. While bagging my own, clerk then fussed at me for taking too long to finish and sign receipt. I feel like I should be on payroll when I shop here.
beware of robbery while waiting in line and right outside of the sliding doors! happens all the time!
Don't come here on a Sunday or Monday night. Otherwise be prepared for a LONG wait in line.
Why are only 2 check-out lanes, including self-check-out, open? The lines are reminiscent of USSR ar the moment.
Nick GrayMay 27, 2016Long lines at night after 10pm :-( A local told me, "It is like this every night. And the self checkout lines are never open."
Great grocery store. Annoying how they have bacon in two different places tho :/ eggs too.
AJ SiegelOctober 7, 2016Cashiers were so slow. I recognize it was late at night, but they had 3 registers open and all had lines into the aisles that didn't move
You haven't true incompetence until you've shopped here.
After work on a holiday weekend and no carts or baskets and awful customer service to match
Management is not very helpful. Personal calls take priority. Check out clerks are GREAT.
Lisa BuckleyNovember 9, 2012Holy terrible service. You can tell the employees take no pride in their work or company.
Good luck trying to shop here on a Sunday evening. The shelves are basically empty.
dgalbersFebruary 27, 2011In store Starbucks. Couple blocks from DC convention center. Stocks FreshPet.
David KnightJune 23, 2013I have never been in a store where more people were as rude and disaffected. And I mean everyone. Staff and customers. I HATE it here.
Gourmet sandwich bar is getting worse and worse. They ran out of Sandwich supplies by 1230?
Never expect them to have the type or size of milk you want
