    Mildly busy close to dinner time. It was well stocked. Produce always looks great. Staff was busy stocking shelves and most were wearing masks. I appreciate that.

    Always have to Jumble with the phone too to get a good deal. Oh never mind they charged full price. Okay they're convenient in McKinleyville but if you purchase one item in Eureka from WinCo you already saved on gas money.

    Frequently understaffed, understocked, and un-maintained. Be prepared to wait in line as they often don’t have more than one lane open. Quality has been declining for years and prices have been going up weekly. Would not recommend shopping here anymore.
