Safeway

I used to like this store. The new manager hires people who CAN’T SPEAK ENGLISH. I don’t care where you come from, but, if you are in retail, you need to speak the predominant language of the region – English. Trying to order at the meat counter was really not worth the trouble.

Seriously do not come to the deli here. Unless you want to feel like BURDENING these associates with your sandwich order, Id suggest spending the extra four bucks at Boudin down the street where they actually smile and acknowledge your existence.
I really don’t know how I can trust that these ladies care enough to throughly follow Food Safety guidelines if they don’t care about customer service.
Honestly the quality of the sandwich doesn’t even matter because all I taste is bitter hatred from the lady who made it.

They try with great diligence. Know Peter M and the fam. They sold Safeway «down the river» Despite that, this location continues to try to bring us good food etc .Yet, their soup is foul and not to be tested.Gross.
Most of us can’t afford Whole Foods or Woodlands. This spot is for you, the middle class (hahha) of Marin if one can say that.
Suggest you band together and share the highlights of this stow on
etc which are many. The lowlights are also many. Davids Produce is gone. Work it… its a great company.

I visited this store on New Year’s Eve to buy myself a 6 pack of beer. I’m 27 years old and presented my California state Id at time of purchase. The first cashier denied me. I didn’t know this could happen at this time in my life. She refused to share why and kept telling me she has the choice to sell it to me. After that I proceed to check out in the adjacent line. Before my new cashier «approved» my purchase she needed to know why the first one denied me. I almost got denied a second time but I think she realized there was no reason not to sell to me.
Avoid this Safeway. The women was on a power trip and it sounds like they are trying to become a dry grocery store by judging people who stop in for only beer. Sorry that I didn’t need groceries at the moment. This the only Safeway I’ve experienced this at. All others seem to be okay.

Safe is the way! Great selection on foods and snacks! Plants. They have a lot of plants. I come here for the deli though, broccoli salad and chicken wings!

There is always room for improvement but overall the people that work there are always friendly.

I HATE going into Safeway. I’ll do anything to avoid it. For example, if there is ANY chance that Rite-​Aid will have it, I’ll just pay whatever premium they charge to not have to go into the huge and somehow still crowded-​in-​all-​the-​wrong-​places store.
I give it a two star instead of a one because despite being annoying to get in and out of, and despite REALLY slow delivery on deli items, the food is decent and the prices are cheap. For example, a couple of days ago my friends and I were on our way to a long hike and wanted to get some meat to grill at the beach later on. We didn’t have time for a proper breakfast so we stopped at the deli. They have $ 2.99 breakfast burritos and English muffin sandwiches. The breakfast burritos were HUGE!
I think part of the «issue» is that the deli doesn’t keep all of the materials handy. For example, I ordered a whole wheat English muffin (it was on the menu) and the lady helping me had to go to the store and grab a bag. I haven’t had any issues with unfriendliness. I tend to be a pretty friendly person to begin with, and I believe that usually when you put your friendliness out there, people like to reciprocate it.
Regarding the rest of the supermarket — I try to buy as little as possible here anyway. I think the produce is really overpriced. One time I went to Safeway and Whole Foods on the same day, within a couple hours of each other so the prices were still really fresh in my mind. Strawberries at Whole Foods were about $ 2 cheaper. When Whole Foods is cheaper than you Safeway, you know you’re doing something wrong (or right? If people are actually buying it?)

One of the baggers, I believe his name was Nadar gave me exceptional customer service, he bagged my groceries quickly and carefully while keeping my infant son entertained and maintaining a conversation with me. He walked my groceries to the car and brought the cart back for me. This experience changed my opinion of Safeway.

This Safeway is the worst. Especially the deli. It’s like they’re in competition with each other to see who can be the slowest person behind the counter! They are also super unfriendly… I am always reluctant to come here, but it’s the closest place to get some lunch near my office. I really wish they would get it together at this store!

The DELI department… TERRIBLE!!! Almost 15 minutes for a sandwich?! Really?! I lost track of how many times I have wanted to jump behind the counter and make my sandwich my damn self!!! Why must they move at snails pace and Uggh. why must their sandwiches be so good?! *vent session over*
This store is always clean so that’s a plus. But I usually come here just to grab something to eat real «quick» while on my lunch break. I usually go straight to the deli counter and either grab a sandwich or some mac and cheese or something. Management really needs to do something about the employees in the deli. They are ridiculously SLOW and not the nicest people, either.

I’ve only been to this Safeway two times but it drives me up a wall:
— Crowded
— Long lines
— Small
If you want to shop at Safeway hit the one in Strawberry. It’s much less cramped, has a better layout, and the lines seem shorter.

Do you like waiting in line (20-​minutes just for express self-​check out) because the store is understaffed? If so, shop here anytime Fri-​Sun.

I go here. I buy food. Prices are decent, store is clean. If they don’t have something I want, I go elsewhere. Such is life.

Clean Safeway.
Organized departments and easy to find products.
As for the deli, all of the warm foods are great. Although I’m not impressed with ability of the sandwich makers.
I ordered the pesto Turkey sandwich and received it on a burnt roll :/​
This Safeway location still gets four stars for me.
Just because of one for sandwich on one visit I will not hold that against the entire store. Augustine tire deli department.
The staff at the store is very helpful and knows where things are located in the store.
I will shop at the Safeway again.
I’ve noticed there is a better selection of organic and natural foods/​products here as well.
I’m really happy to see Safeway carrying such items as the AWESOME refrigerated beverages, like Koombacha.

Ridiculous, lines are insane, no one seems to care. I’ve come at different times of day. I’m here now at 630 right after work and they have two lanes open plus an express. Really?

Our usual stop to grab a hot chocolate and shop for our quick groceries
My favorite is their year round sweet strawberries! A staple in our house.
Also our favorite coustomer service, especially Jason. Jason is always bagging, stocking, and smiling, and super sweet with kids!

Not as nice as the more «updated» Safeway supermarkets but we found what we wanted: «natural» ginger ale and crackers for an upset tummy. I used the restroom (clean) and the staff was nice. Just passing through, so can’t say for sure how good this market is as a regular source for groceries.
The parking lot was big enough, and it was easy to find. Checkout was quick too.

The staff here sucks! The cashier was stupid… she kept ringing up my coffee like 4 times. then when I told her… she had the nerve to say it would be taken off at the end.
It wasn’t ! I was charged $ 26 dollars for it! After I checked out & looked at the receipt — I went back to her to correct & she said she was busy. but would call out the Customer Service clerk… OMG… she was worst .and what a troll! She had such a bad attitude! It must be a Marin thing! All other Safeways I’ve been to are so helpful.
Never again!

The sign in the sandwich department says if the sandwich isn’t made in 3 minutes it’s free. It took them 15 minutes to make my sandwich, and they didn’t honor their policy.
I didn’t really care that it took 15 minutes (although for a sandwich, that’s ridiculously long), what I hated was when I asked a simple question I got a judging stare and lashed at by the woman behind the counter.
She also didn’t give me and napkins with my sandwich. When I asked for some she said «we’re all out, get some from Starbucks». How rude.
If I could give this Safeway negative stars — I would.

Located across the road from the Best Western Plus Corte Madera Inn, I found this Safeway a convenient spot to pick up some supplies for my hotel room
It’s not the biggest or most well organised of supermarkets but I found my fresh fruit platter, fruit juice and putter butter M&Ms fine
I love my Safeway card which gets me a handy discount and keeps my Chinese Thrift Gene happy
