Safeway

Let me start by saying there was a line that took 30 minutes to get through, only one person behind the counter. Once we get our food we were shorted one egg roll, they were stale and not edible. Stuff behind the deli counter taking money and not washing their hands afterwards. This was a store that I gave five stars not too long ago. Before the pandemic. One good thing was all the staff were wearing masks, that was good to see. Other than that I probably will not go to Safeway to get any deli food, anytime in the future. Besides the long wait, overcharging and the cross-contamination, I might have given 2 stars, but this place was an absolute mess, horrible service.

I have lived a few blocks away from this Safeway for over ten years now. In that time I have come to realize this Safeway out of all the stores in the greater Vancouver area has some of the grossest looking produce I have ever seen. It is not a exaggeration to say every time I go in there I see moldy rotting fruit and veggies. Whoever is in control of quality control there should be ashamed. I have gone in there countless times to buy strawberries and not once have I gone through with it. They're always wilted and look a day or two away from being bad. The tomatoes got white mold growing on them and the White and yellow onions got dark mold spots all over. Seriously sucks I have to go too Vancouver to get decent produce when this Safeway is so close, but it is what it is.

This is my go to store but I have a complaint that needs remedied or I will shop elsewhere. PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BRING DOGS INTO A GROCERY STORE!! IF IT IS AN EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMAL THEN IT NEEDS TO BE AUTHENTIC NOT AN AMAZON JACKET YOU THREW ON FIDO. I AM NOT A PET LOVER AND I DONT APPRECIATE PEOPLE BRINGING THEIR DOGS INTO THE STORE. JUST LEAVE THEM AT HOME WHERE THEY BELONG. PLUS PEOPLE HAVE ALLERGIES AND POSSIBLY FEAR OR DOGS!!! If safeway doesn't get a handle on this I will take my business elsewhere. You will always fail when you try to accommodate a small amount of the population just ask bud light and Ben n Jerry's.

I worked here for just over five years. It’s so nice to see that the co-management team (Michael & Connie) that ran the store years ago are finally gone. It was so unfortunate to see those two store managers ripping into their employees causing them to cry right in front of customers. I was dumbfounded as to how they maintained their employment. It was so unprofessional and I felt so sad for those employees. For God sakes, you are working at a grocery store, not saving lives here. The current store manager seems very carefree and relaxed. Not uncommon to see him in the checkstand or helping customers out with their groceries. It does not seem like any job is beneath him and he’s always ready to roll up his sleeves. I’ve even seen him cruising around the bakery with a hairnet on . Courtesy clerk Dawn is always in the highest spirits, giggling constantly. Dena is always getting stuff done up at the front counter. Lee gets that produce out onto the shelves with warp speed. The store is quite large compared to the other Safeway’s. Washougal Safeway’s employees are currently doing a great job of keeping the store, full of product and looking polished and clean.

I'd like to thank Amanda today for her always pleasant, happy self! I forgot to give her a blessing! All of the CS are great at Washougal Safeway pickup and go! The pickup service has always been great and I applaud all the workers on their smiles. Today had a last minute order that placed it at a 7 pm pu but I can't drive in the dark. Claire filled order and was ready in plenty of time to get home before dark. Miranda helped! Love how they all work together like a family. Thx Washougal Safeway for always the best and friendliest of workers!
