- CZCatalina ZorcDec 13, 20254.0Been shopping here since 1970. Like the small size for convenient shopping. Used to have more specialty items such as duck, liver, quail, cornish hens, even rabbit! Maybe can order. Store needs to remove sale signs promptly as you are often charged regular price, Need to check your receipt and ask for the sale price. Employees friendly and helpful.
- SPStacey PearlDec 1, 20251.0People really need to stop shopping here. I just paid just under $6 for a rotten cantaloupe. I can get the same thing on Instcart from Walmart for $1.34! The prices are outrageous. You can order from Walmart, have it delivered, and still pay 1/3 of the price and the produce is better too!
- AGAndré-Chance GoddardNov 9, 20251.0Worst safeway in the area. Travel the extra 8 minutes to Wisconsin. The staff here is rude, unnecessarily nasty, and unpleasant as a rule. This is not your friendly neighborhood market. It also doesn't regularly stock common items.
- KLKim LynchSep 24, 20251.0I wish I could give this location no stars. They never have what I need stocked. Last week I purchased coconut water and realized this week that it expired in August and I drank one of them last week but can't prove that's why I didn't feel well. A customer shouldn't have to expect expired products being on the shelf for sale. And because I didn't have the receipt anymore I didn't try to return it. I wasted $20 because every carton I purchased was expired. I also purchased some sliced watermelon this week and it tastes like crap. I think they're switching the packed dates. There's no way the watermelon was packed on the date provided with the old taste it has. Never going there again.
