  One of the worst grocery stores in the area. I’ve lived nearby for almost 8 years, and it’s honestly disappointing to see how far this store has fallen. It went from being a convenient 24-hour location to closing early, which was a huge help with my night shift schedule. They’ve also removed the ability to get cash back through self-checkout and added a strange gate system at the entrance that feels more like entering a gross amusement park than a grocery store. Instead of improving the customer experience, these changes have only made shopping more inconvenient. If you’re reading reviews before deciding where to shop, I’d recommend going somewhere else. There are much better options nearby.

  Some items in short supply. And the frozen veggie sweet potato burgers are still sold put

  The hot bar is NEVER consistent with opening times. I got roasted chicken there last week. It smelled funky. I threw it out. The cooks and servers there always have bad attitudes. Harpers Farm is the better location.

  This location I give mixed review for a reason. It is clean facilities and fresh produce on one visit, then inconsistent service and a few messy aisles the next. Weekends, especially Saturday afternoon when the mall is packed, the checkout lines back up and the self-checkout attendants are stretched thin.

  I’ve never had a worse shopping experience than at this Safeway. The anti-theft system they’ve implemented treats every paying customer like a criminal from the moment they walk in the door. The shopping carts are apparently programmed to suddenly lock their wheels if the system thinks you crossed some invisible boundary. Instead of simply stopping, the cart violently jerks to a halt, which is not only embarrassing but genuinely dangerous. If you’re pushing a heavy cart or walking at a normal pace, it feels like the cart slams into concrete. Then there’s the alarm system. The alarms suddenly flash bright lights and blast loud warning sounds while you’re walking out, even when you’ve paid for everything. It’s humiliating, disruptive, and completely unacceptable. The whole setup creates this atmosphere where innocent customers are constantly being monitored, scanned, stopped, and embarrassed. And of course there’s the receipt scanning nonsense. After already waiting in line, paying, bagging groceries, and trying to leave, customers are now expected to stand there and prove they didn’t steal anything just to exit. What really pushed this from annoying to absurd is that they lock one entire side of the exit doors after a certain hour. So if you parked near the closed side, too bad, you’re forced to drag your groceries all the way across the front of the store, leave through the opposite side, then walk back around outside just to get to your car. It’s unbelievably inconvenient. Instead of improving customer service or staffing the store properly, Safeway chose to create a hostile environment filled with barriers, suspicion, and inconvenience. I understand stores want to reduce theft, but punishing every legitimate customer is not the answer. This location feels less like a grocery store and more like a poorly designed security checkpoint. If these inconveniences aren't enough, digging through their "fresh produce" to find some that isn't rotting on the shelf or accidently picking up yogurt that expired a month ago is common. Do not shop here.
