Albertsons

Closest Albertsons to us. We used to shop all our groceries here prior to the La Habra Walmart upgrading into Super Walmart a while ago.
Pros:
Never crowded.
Abundant Parking.
Good Booze selection.
Fresh meat area compared to La Habra Walmart.
Cons:
They used to have meatloaf in their Deli area. Mrs. loved it. They discontinued it couple of years ago. My visits have been infrequent since then.
Expensive compared to Walmart on every single item.

What is wrong with their employee named «Carole»? Yesterday I asked her to split the bill between my boyfriend and I and she just stared at me like I’d grown 2 heads. Then while I was waiting for him to buy something on a separate order, I caught her glaring at me out of the corner of my eye. I’d catch her glaring, she’d look away, then a second later she was glaring at me again. Wtf? Very very odd, rude behavior, and I have NO clue what her deal was. Needless to say we won’t be getting in HER line again.
However the other employees we usually interact with are really nice, the store is clean and I like the selection, so the place still gets 4 stars.

Extremely rude service at the deli.. They were too busy chatting after several attempts to «excuse me» they finally respond by giving a dirty look. I asked for an individual side of Mac n cheese I said thank u for your time have a great day and i received a smirk in return and sever turned her back to me. Never again I’ll I return here. I work a few blocks away, it’s a very nice store but poor customer service

I live down the street from this place and its not my primary grocery store. Why you ask? The wait/​line for everything… all the time. Whether its a busy weekend or midday on a Tuesday, the wait never ends. I don’t blame the employees, I think there should be more staff. Today I bought a premium cake from the bakery, I waited 5 minutes for someone to help… nobody. The lady working at the bakery continues to help another patron… another couple minutes go by and no assistance. I left the place without a «happy birthday» on my cake.
Same story goes for the starbucks inside the store as well, it takes them 5 minutes just to take your order.
The reason why I gave them two stars is because they have cut up fruit and vegetables… that’s convenient.

I came in to pick up a full sheet cake and it looked like a 8 year old decorated it. It was very plain and it had a big dip in the middle and a dent in the top of it. I had them make a photo cake with a image that I provided and they didn’t even bother putting a boarder around the image. It was wrinkled and looked way too small for the size of the cake. Asked the girl working the bakery if she could do anything to make it look better, she suggested some sprinkles and I said ok, let’s try it. I asked if she could maybe add some balloons to the upper corners to fill in some of the empty space. Well, I guess she didn’t know how to do that so she called someone else to help her, and this was a mistake. The balloons turned out ugly and the sprinkles just rolled around on the top of the cake cause the base frosting has already harden. She even tried to fill in the dent in the cake with the sprinkles and it just made it more noticeable. I was so frustrated and disappointed that I just told them to give me the cake. I would figure out something out.

Great deli here. I like the roasted, fried, & rotisserie chicken. My Son likes their salt & vinegar wings. They also have fantastic broasted potato wedges. They sometimes have a pistachio fluff that is delish.
They have a good selection of sushi too. It’s brought in by a vendor but is good quality and taste good too.
Since you’re in a grocery store the selection of beverages cant be beat. Same goes for desert.

Consistently the worst store in LM, when the line is down the frozen food isle it’s time to bring in another cashier. I live half a mile from this store and shop at the one on Malvern four miles away, this morning I needed a couple of quick items thought I would give it a try, big mistake.

Love shopping at an Albertsons. I’ve been going to this Albertsons when it was an Lucky’s which Albertsons acquired in around 1998. Good times though. And I’m obviously still shopping here.
This store is pretty convenient. The quality of their products are very fresh. They can be expensive, but you do get what you paid for. Whenever there’s good sale going on, I always go for it.
Meat: For the BBQ on the 4^th of July, I got 3 lbs of marinated flap meat from the butcher which it was my first time getting meat from the butcher ever. My parents, brother and sister really love the flap meat a lot. I also got some Foster Farm’s half breast chicken which is so good.
Organic produce: Really love their organic strawberries. My parents thought I was crazy eating some organic stuff. And I’ll be buying some more organic fruit soon.
Customer service: Excellent! No questions asked!
Overall: Great store!!! 5 stars!

Bathrooms are very often dirty and paper towels are empty. Store manager comes across as very pompous and is selective in whom he greets. Other then that, store has built in Starbucks, nice craft beer and liquor section and employees overall are very pleasant.

Avoid this place. I’ve sent my boyfriend for quick «honey-do’s» for items forgotten on the shopping list and he has ended up at this store on a few occassions. Each time he has gone here to pick up a forgotten item on our shopping list, he has had the worst experience.
The first incident, he bought a gallon of milk (not looking at expiration dates) and brought it home. Once home, I realized the tamper-​proof seal was open and the milk was spoiled, so back he went to return the milk.
The second incident was a bag of «fresh» tortilla chips that cost him $ 4.95 in the deli aisle. Apparently he got the munchies when in the store and brought home this treat, along with some bean dip. The dip was pretty good and flavorful from their deli, however the chips were all stale. I encouraged him to drive back to get his money back, but he wound up throwing the bag out instead.
The third incident was for Christmas. He ran to get some horseradish sauce for our prime rib. He brought back 2 small jars of horseradish and didn’t realize that one of the jars was missing the plastic protective seal on the outside of the lid. So much for that horseradish — we now how to return it.
This Albertsons has the worst service, snotty management (they treat you like the problem when you return an item that is rotten such as milk), and lazy staff who don’t check whether an item is sitting on a shelf past its expiration date. Perhaps most concerning —food that may be potentially dangerous to ingest due to missing tamper-​proof seals. I have been contemplating elevating this to the FDA as this store (and ALL supermarkets) need to maintain an acceptable standard for the general public’s safety.
Word of caution: If you go to this store, make sure to check all expiration labels and tamper proof seals on jars before buying any products.

Checkout clerks don’t try to engage at all, they’re so intent on hurling my fruit as hard as they can into a sac and it burying it with heavier goods. Happens every time.

BAKERY. Check your order and then re-​check it before leaving the store.
I went to order a cake that I’ve ordered before. Nevermind the fact that they have changed the design of the cake to make it simpler. Nevermind the fact that it is used to be a cream-​cheese frosting that taste more and more like regular butter-​cream with every cake I order. I still order it.
I was told «Oh we don’t do that» (half-​half filling) I informed them that I’ve gotten the cake there plenty of times before. I ordered the half sheet after the employee got the clip board to tell me the price.
When I picked up — it was a ¼ sheet. The girls behind the counter just gave me a dumbfounded look that said «what do you want me to do?». No customary «I’m sorry». Nothing. So we’re having a stand off because I need a sorry even if it’s fake. «well, you can buy something else to add to it». Thank you, I had no idea that I could do that. No, you can get the order right next time. I sarcatically thank them for their concern and leave with my ¼ sheet for 50 people. I don’t think they got the sarcasm.
Guess I won’t be going back there.

This location got a prime real estate opportunity. It is on a busy street with a lot of stuff around, so whenever you need something it is very convenient to access. The only problem is it is very convenient for everybody is accessing it. The lines are always really long. But because it is so convenient I am constantly coming here. The people /​staff are really nice also.

for years. but after today. I had to leave a review. I left with a smile. Thanks.

Looks like this Albertson’s grocery store has two different entries. They need to be condensed into one. The following is a copy of my short review of the store:
Nothing to add about this grocery store that others haven’t written. Used to come here more often when we visited family in La Mirada. Nowadays, though we usually do our grocery shopping elsewhere. Albertson’s everyday prices are higher than most of the competition.
Still, if I’m in the area and something is needed right away. I’ll come here and use their self serve checkout. It’s convenient when the lines are long.

I love this Albertsons because everybody has always been friendly and accomodating. Its like old fashioned service use to be. A special thumbs up to the guys in the meat dept who have always been helpful despite the fact that I always ask for the chicken breasts specially fillet and seasoned. They are always friendly and polite. And a shout out to the lead produce guy. He is very outgoing and makes it a point to talk to you and even give you information on whatever veggies or fruits you might ve buying, such as country of origin and sweetness. Even down to what climate they thrive in. Workers in general, including managers, all seem to work as a team and ask you if you need help. I will be moving far away from the store and not be visiting anymore after this month, so I thought I would write a good review since I will miss the store

Ronda a cashier customer service that claims she is doing her job by being rude to a customer. Mid age woman named Ronda that was the cashier had the worst customer service I ever experienced at a grocery store. She was
Very degrading too! Kept interrupting me, raised her voice at me, doesn’t listen, kept staring me down, just plain disrespect to a loyal customer. I been living close to this market for about 3 years now. It’s the closet one since Ralph’s closed down. It’s a shame I never want to go back. The male manager at the time was cool and even acknowledged that Ronda was wrong which I did appreciate. However, no customer should be treated with such disrespect!

I go to this Albertsons 3 to 4 times a week. It’s in walking distance to my house so it’s a neighborhood store. I recently had an encounter with a worker in the bakery department. I love cakes. In particular, I love white cake. After surveying the cake display case, I asked the worker if she had white cake. She said no because they sell mostly chocolate. I then said to her I love white cake. She then referred me to their grab and go single serving cakes which cost $ 1.99 each. Of course I want to spend $ 4.00 to get 2 slices of cake when I really wanted a bigger cake. Does that make sense? I think it’s a scam to say you can only get white cake single servings and only display chocolate, red velvet and carrot cakes in the display case. Albertsons please provide variety in your cakes… yes white cake is a cake. Thank you!

Normal prices at this store can make your hair stand way up! Even if you are bald! But, if you are creative and a smart shopper, you can still end up doing okay and finding good values. Watch for their sale items. Use coupons. Use their store card… And stock up when feasible!
Love their self serve checkout! Really helps to save time when you are only purchasing a few items!

I wish this supermarket was open ²⁴⁄₇ but sometimes you can’t always have what you want! I come here and shop for most of my groceries only if they have sale items! When they have a sale it really is a pretty good deal.
I would recommend checking your newspaper or going online to see what the sale is and also cutting some coupons from the LA Sunday paper.
After you do all that than come to Alberstons and go do your shopping! This place is pretty big with large isles to go and look through. The fresh bakery section looks pretty nice but I still haven’t tried anything from it. But it does smell pretty yummy!
The parking isn’t a problem and the lines are pretty fast !! So I don’t have any problems with this store at all and I hope it keeps that way! :)
