Safeway

This is for this morning for the Deli Breakfast sandwiches. 4 of them. 1 English muffin sandwich 1 regular sandwich 2 breakfast burritos all perfect. Plus the Starbucks coffee. About 9am 6−4−16

Called to ask a simple question.
Was never EVER connected to a department.
Went online to see if I could find the answer myself and there was no information on the subject. Called a few more times. After hearing the automated menu then sitting on their hold music a total of 20 minutes I gave up.
Lake Stevens Safeway has terrible customer service. If you’re busy, just pick up and say please hold– or we’ll be with you shortly.
I was in customer service forEVER and I always managed to pick up the phone.
I wish there was a zero star option.

Very busy Safeway. Same as most any other Safeway I’ve been to. During the rush hour, they are not as responsive to adding additional checkers in my opinion. Wish they had a Redbox; they have rentals, but the selection is very limited.

I spend a lot of time in this Safeway, I go here because the prices are generally cheaper than their competitors and their produce is usually in pretty good shape.
I’ve noticed that it is sometimes difficult to get help on the floor, but today I was standing by the bakery wanting too get a load of bread sliced, two people were working by the cakes and a third was stocking cookies. The associate that was stocking cookies walked by me without saying a word and even looked up at me twice as I was waiting for assistance. I could have called out or stood around waving my arms showing blatant signs that I could have used some help, but as an employee in a customer service environment and department, I expected her to approach me.
I’ll continue to shop here, but I hope that a manager reads this and does some training in customer service, a happy customer is a return customer.

I come here almost every day whenever I need anything! Great selection of produce organic and locally grown! Well kept up, clean, and up to date store! Self check out also makes a quick grocery shop or ice cream run a breeze!

We just shopped here today and witnessed many neat things! There was a wine tasting, many samples, and some fundraisers going on. The staff was also very helpful and nice. We witnessed what looked to be an elderly woman who is a regular. The staff were eager to help her carry heavy things and help her out to her car. It was nice to see!
The only thing I didn’t like was that there weren’t enough checkers for the amount of customers there were.

I really didn’t think I would ever write a review for a grocery store but here I am. This store is very close to my house and I really do enjoy coming here. Every employee we have encountered is friendly. When lines get long you see managers hop on registers and help out (on numerous occasions I have seen the store and others on them).
Only downside is you can tell it is a very busy location. Never have I seen a place that is busy on a Wednesday at 10am but this place is hoppin’ — due to the volume this store must do they are constantly stocking. I’d say about 40% of the isles I walk down has someone stalking. Not a bad thing but makes things harder to get around. When an employee sees you looking at something blocked by their cart they happily move it.

This only concerns the sandwich counter. Why have one of nobody is working at it? The food is normally good but waiting while you can see other customers being served at the chicken and Chinese areas is a little tiresome. By now my soup will be cold. I wouldn’t have written this except it’s not the first time.

Safeway is becoming my favorite store but I’ll pass on their fried chicken.
While we were eating it we discovered it was undercooked. It was bloody inside. This happened yesterday.

Open ²⁴⁄₇? Forget going out to the club! I come here for fun! Turn up turn up!!!
In all seriousness though, it’s convenient and I like it better than Albertson’s. It’s probably my favorite Safeway of all time.

After shopping Haggens and QFC over the last year, it feels good to be back in Safeway. This one is decent, but just a standard one. Its nice that they have wifi, but the place needs a few plugs for accommodation. This one is clean, and I really appreciate that. It also has a nice local feel, where everyone seems to know everyone.

To be clear this is not a review of safeway in general, but of the lake stevens store particularly. I have some free advice for this safeway. Re-​organize your inventory in an order that makes sense. It is very difficult to find anything in this store, because the signs are poor and like items are nowhere near each other. They actually have a section called «new age drinks» which contained sports and energy drinks, and some organic beverages. How this is «new age» is beyond me. It’s confusing.
Also, the staff was not friendly. People kept looking at me like I was from out of town or something, and I noticed that none of the employees were smiling. So I didn’t ask for help and wandered around for 20 minutes before giving up, putting my 5 or 6 items back, and going to the albertsons across the street.

Good location in frontier village. Our kids love the Jamba Juice smoothie bar and the free cookies in the bakery.

My favorite Safeway. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Store is neat and clean. Very crowded store at certain times of the day and the staff are good about opening up all check stands. The produce section is consistently fresh and appealing. The bakery smells yummy and the fancy cakes and cookies are beautiful. I love that there is a Jamba Juice and Starbucks. I also like that the Safeway Gas Station is across the street so you can avoid the big parking lot if you are just getting gas and don’t need groceries. I live in Lake Stevens and only shop at Safeway. The Albertsons is filthy and the Haggens is over priced.

This is probably the worst Safeway I know of. It’s not that it’s bad, exactly. It’s just… not good. Whenever I go to a Safeway somewhere else, I marvel at how everything is cleaner and the service is better.
Apparently this is where they train new people, and so a lot of the employees here aren’t very experienced. Maybe that’s the problem. Maybe it’s just Everett. Who knows?
