    This Safeway is really well stocked, especially in the meat, poultry, and seafood sections. I appreciate how clearly they label everything—cage-free, pasture-raised, organic, etc.—which makes it easy to make informed choices while shopping. The store really promotes good-quality food and a thoughtful shopping experience. The security staff was also very friendly, which added to the positive atmosphere. Overall, a great Safeway location that feels clean, organized, and customer-focused.
