Safeway

Very clean store with large organic vegetable selection, lots of free parking, a short walk from Bart Del Notre train station, good staff and just off the highway 880

Friendly workers I give them a 5/5 and things are stocked. Management and Safeway executives get a 0/5 for how they staff nighttime if they are base anything on productivity they are cheating customers who have to shop at night with long lines. The attached photo has about 7 shoppers in front and 4 behind me. Stop this we already have to scan receipt to get out of self checkout. Hard to shop at any Safeway

we ❤️ Safeway! so happy to find they carry ghost peppers & carolina reaper peppers 🌶️

This is the worst supermarket in the area. It sucks that it’s the most convenient though. Its right at BART, buses, and the freeway. First there’s almost always some type of nasty stain and litter on the ground in front of the doorway. Then there’s always at least one person panhandling in front of the doorway. Then there’s always at least one person accosting you to sell you something or sign a petition in front of the doorway. Then there’s almost always someone standing around doing ‘nothing’ in front of the doorway. Then when you walk inside there’s security guards dressed in SWAT gear just inside the doorway. Then you have to go through an alarmed turnstile to shop. Then the layout of the store is bizarre. Theres an ‘aisle wall’ in the middle of the store that separates the whole store in half. You can’t easily go across the store. You have to walk the whole length of the store to get to the other side. It’s a nightmare for any elderly or disabled person. Then almost all of the signage for the aisles is wrong. The sign at aisle 12 might say coffee but it really on 3. Pasta on 6, but it’s really on 1. Don’t forget there’s this ‘aisle wall’ in the middle of the store so you have to walk ALL the way to the end of the aisle to cross over to the other side of the store. Then there’s all types of stuff locked behind plexiglass. *Beef jerky is locked on one aisle, then openly on the shelf one aisle over. And, it seems like they shift items without telling the employees because they don’t know where things are either. I’ve found items by asking other customers where THEY found it. Then when you use self checkout you need to scan your receipt to go through another turnstile to get out. Then you walk through the same calamity of characters you passed coming in. It’s madness. The saving grace for this store is that almost everyone that works there are nice. You can see their frustration but they’re always courteous and professional to me. I honesty believe some may have PTSD from working in that chaos. Save yourself the headaches and go to Lucky or Grocery Outlet.

I'm giving it 1 star because of the way animals are mistreated to have their bodies made into food for human consumption. It is awful that Safeway is not all vegan 100% and that Nathan's hot dogs are subsidized by the federal government the feds. Grow up everyone stop eating pigs, chicken, cows, lambs you should be ashamed of yourselves constant complainers don't care about people suffering in slaughterhouses for you to feed yourselves. Go plant based.
