    I’ve shopped at this location several times recently and have consistently felt uncomfortable due to what appears to be racial profiling, including being followed around the store on multiple occasions. In addition, the selection of healthy food options is noticeably limited compared to other grocery stores I regularly visit. Overall, the experience feels unsettling. This is disappointing, especially given the store’s convenient proximity to my home.

    DO NOT SHOP AT THIS GROCERY STORE. They repeatly sell expired food. My wife bought baby food at this Safeway in Ellicott City on 12/20 at 9pm then found out at home that the baby food expiration was dated 11/22 and 12/20. I toook to the store for a complaint and a refund. The store staff quickly said “Please don’t tell me it’s expired food AGAIN!” which means expired food was often sold to consumers repeatedly at this Safeway. The staff mentioned that Safeway hired Food Quality Control but the person keeps failing to pull expired food off the shelf. This is then2nd time my wife bought exlired food. 1st time she let it go. DO NOT GO HERE.

    I think this location not have a very good selection of fresh herbs, especially so close to a major holiday. Otherwise, it is a good place to shop.

    This Safeway is great aside from the fact that it’s really poorly lit on the exterior (both the storefront and the parking area) It’s the darkest place in the shopping center compared to the other storefronts and lot. It’s not at all inviting at night. So much so that I find myself going to other grocery stores even though this is closest to my home. I can’t be the only person that feels this way. Hopefully you can use the feedback. Thanks
