Albertsons

being a retired city and state cop, i tend to observe things most people don’t notice. while sitting outside of this albertsons, i saw the manager, john exit the store on the quick step followed by a checker. they were in hot pursuit of a woman pushing a cart of items which she had apparently stuck to her fingers. john was supreme in the way he multi-​tasked in the pursuit with the clerk, and the cell phone to the police. as an ex-​street cop the smoothness of how john handled the situation reminded me of how we used to put 100’s of cops together to move the president in southern california. the albertsons company is lucky to have a manager like john. a. herrera ret. chp motor officer.

Waited for 20 min for help at the deli counter. The guy passed me up to help another guy who just got there. Terrible customer service

If you’re visiting this is a great place to get your eats and supplies. Friendly staff and stocked with a good variety.

Big selection of local wines, which was cool… terrible selection of soy ice creams. Actually, a lot of the ice cream pints look like they’d been there for awhile. Ice so thick you could barely tell what flavor it was on the label. What’d a girl gotta do to get a decent dessert?
But hey, it’s not like you have tons of options in the area. It’s open until 11pm, which is later than most of the restaurants.

Came here a month ago to grab some much needed essentials and honestly this Market is pretty awesome. Our Albertsons back home really needs revamping. This Albertsons is live and full of lively people and workers. The market has a Starbucks and I believe a Sushi bar as well. Great job Albertsons of Morro Bay, Ca.

Bought rock fish and crab meat a few minutes ago. Carl, the fellow behind the fish counter, was extremely helpful. He even broke open my my crab legs so I didn’t have to fight to get the crab meat out for stuffing.

This Albertson’s was giant, decently well-​stocked, and very expensive. Parking is seriously easy thanks to a giant lot. If you’re staying in the area (which we were), shopping here will get you the basics, but I’d look elsewhere for staples if I lived here permanently.

WHY IS IT IMPOSSIBLE, IN THIS DAY & AGE, TO RECEIVE THE WEEKLY ADS ON TUESDAY OF. EACH. WEEK??? Is this the company policy or is it the US Postal Service (or obvious lack thereof??) I, and I’m not in the minority, plan my weekly shopping for a Wednesday, & it’s EXTREMELY frustrating NOT to have those ads to plan my list. How about some consideration for regular shoppers?

Clean, cute and crappy expensive!
While staying in Morro Bay, Ca this is pretty much the only place to go shopping for food&drink for miles. Sure you have some smaller shops around, but this one is the only one that will provide you with everything you could wish for.
I did a serious double-​take once I saw the prices though. everything is 1 – 2 dollars over walmart/​target pricing! Seriously, this place is expensive… pop-​tarts $ 3,49? Wow… the cheapest wine was 10 bucks and it definitely wasn’t worth that. (just to throw some examples out there)
PRO:
On the positive side, this place is clean, modern and well stocked. They have a great selection of fresh meats, veggies and fruit. And a In-​Store Starbucks too.
CON:
Well the negative points are fairly obvious, damn expensive and no wifi? They have a indoor deli and starbucks, but no wifi? Very weird combo…
Three stars for having everything, minus two for prices and lack of wifi…

Your lack of wifi has me wondering why I shelled out 6 $ for a latte and a scone to sit in your awesome remodeled café area… WITHOUT internet. Seriously, you guys need to fix this!
This is not the first time. Last time it was slow as molasses. Slower than dial up I’m not even kidding. Now? I’m literally packing my stuff up to find another place. FAIL Albertsons!

the only place that i know as of now that sells
BAKED HOT CHEETOS.
I haven’t found baked versions of hot cheetos in awhile
So glad i found some here.

«What an awesome store!
They give free balloons, just ask!
Clean and tidy, too!»

More expensive than the liquor stores. Produce is highest priced Ive ever seen but quality us lowest I’ve ever seen. Changing over to albertsons brand which is inferior product but high priced. Total rip off store.
Go over Los Osos Ralph’s instead.

The store is remodeled, which is nice. I don’t like that they mostly carry their own in house brand, called Everyday Essentials or something. They are carrying fewer and fewer national brands. Also they have long abandoned their three is a crowd policy, whereby they would open a register if more than three people are in line. There always seem to be long lines, and not enough registers open.

If you are in a hurry and stop at the «Starbucks» inside the store, please re-​think your choice… they are ALWAYS way too crowed, expensive and SLOW. The employees look like they are doing something, but as I watched them today and waited altogether for 15 minutes, I noticed that between three employees, one was taking orders, one was washing dishes and one was attempting to make all of the drink orders and the line was out the door. VERY poor organizational and customer service skills…

July 3, 2013 was the second (and last) time that my husband and I have gone to the deli at Albertsons in Morro Bay.
We chose to get deli sandwiches as a quick alternative to fast food. Unfortunately, that was a mistake.
First, there were no slips to fill out, so Timmothy gave us a piece of parchment to write our sandwich orders on, which was fine but seemed unprofessional.
From the time that we handed over our orders, it took Timmothy 25 minutes to make our 2 sandwiches. Perhaps, had they been complicated or heated, this would be ok. But they were both very simple with one meat, one cheese, and 3 – 4 condiments/​veggies.
At one point, I asked him to add cucumbers, which he double checked on when he started on my sandwich– but forgot to add. I took a photo of my sandwich, which was dismal looking, which one piece of lettuce not covering the sandwich.
Additionally, he did not change his gloves after the last order before us, handling pencils/​pens and operating the meat slicer, and continued to work in these gloves after our order.
I am not a picky customer. And my husband, as a chef, understands the demands of a kitchen.
But this was the second extremely disappointing visit to this particular Albertsons. Quality control and safety standards seemed non-​existent and we will not be returning.

This Albertson is extraordinary! Large and plentiful parking spaces. I came in to get some local Linn’s Pies and Pinquito beans but discovered more. The store is huge! It has everything including exotic tropical fruits that I won’t even be able to find in the Bay Area. I was blown away by the quality and selections!
If you are reading this and get a chance to stop by Morrow Bay, do pay a visit to this Albertson’s. It’s quite spectacular!

I love the facelift they gave to Albertsons. One of the better craft beer selections around, outside of BevMo, and it’s always our goto place for grocery shopping when in the MB area.

The best customer service of any grocery store around!

all right so it’s been a few years since I’ve been here, but I remember coming here to rent my dvds while vacationing in the area. Now they’ve remodeled and everything is so different! Most of it is in a good way. They have expanded and remodeled to match all the other modern day supermarkets! Easy to shop and find what you need and probably the only big store in the area for 15 – 20 min drive around. The only negative is they got rid of their dvds! Sure they have their red box outside, but they don’t have very many old movies. Luckily we found Video Palace within the same shopping center!
