Standard Costco. Super busy, difficult to get in and out of parking lot. Fast check out and self check out. Samples have returned!!! Social distancing encouraged, masks required, hand sanitizer available. The food court has lost a few items since I was last there. I'm guessing it's related to supply issues. Very clean and well organized. Friendly staff. read more

Gas? OTC meds, clothes, steaks, A1, t0, sheets, batteries, bifocal lenses, the removal of onions at the hotdog hand is just another example reason I'll be leaving soon. Miss the fruit nut medley read more

I was at the optical department to pick up my prepaid glasses. There was a sign to indicate where to pick up glasses. Employees ignored anyone standing there. Eventually I got a number to get some service. Finally someone paid attention and 3 people got their glasses. Getting the glasses took less than 2 minutes. It took at least 15 min of waiting to get them. read more

Finally got some of these popsicles from Costco and I tried one and it was alright. I would say it is much better in a cup still. read more

I love coming to Costco for the produce/fruits, huge bag of snacks, and frozen food section for quick meal prep. Every Costco is packed with people over the weekend. This location seems to have a lot of things in stock. They have various meat cuts, ranging from sliced beef/pork, pork belly, steak, and various poultry in bulk package that can feed a party of 10 or more. There are discounts for various items and we were able to get toiletry on sale that would last a long time. It is a great place to shop for big families! Every staff is wearing a mask and the check out maintains social distancing while waiting for checkout. The food court continues to have the amazing $1.50 hotdog and drink deal that never cease to disappoint. read more

They stopped selling diesel! Not even a sign apologizing for the inconvenience, especially after waiting in line to find the diesel hose gone. No reason to have a membership any longer. read more

Enjoy going to all of the Costco locations except for on the weekend. This location has adequate parking versus the one downtown Seattle. Gas is available at this location but they do not have a car wash. Toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent. All of the staples one needs. We have purchased computers here, my Nikon digital camera, and other tech items. Each year, we also pick up the box of Christmas cards as they have a good array of designs each year. Tip for getting items at food court- Buy drink at the beginning of your shopping experience as you can fill up before heading out to your car. Also, you can get one drink and one soft serve ice cream. Scoop out 1/2 of the ice cream and put it in the empty cup.....then fill up with root beer and you have a root beer float! read more

The security officer we will call Josh well I have to say is so unprofessional at best....comes up to my friend after we paid and wants to know know more about her gloves.....thinking she took them from Costco and I must say they were not even a brand that Costco sold will not be going back Ty Josh read more

This Costco is located in the same congested plaza as Home Depot and has its own gas station. Also the food court is inside at this location. My husband and I arrived in Seattle on Saturday afternoon and decided to stock up on some food essentials/ snacks and thought we would check out a local Costco. It was definitely crowded when we came (when is Costco not busy?). But anyways, we were greeted by the employee at the door (checking to make sure that we are members of this establishment) and then browsed the aisles. We ended up picking up quite a few things and then headed to the register. I actually wanted to renew my membership (doesn't expire until July) and so I gave the cashier my membership renewal (was sitting in my purse, along with my cash back rebate). It was kind of odd, but she seemed very insistent that it is not necessary to renew it early and that I will not get a penalty if I do not pay it on its due date. She said that because Costco had recently updated their computer system, it will not allow her and that I will have to go to the membership service line and wait there to try to renew it. She just kept talking about it throughout my transaction (I heard you the first time... no need to keep rehashing it and dragging it out... I am sorry that I asked). She told me that actually, Costco will send me a membership renewal 3 months from the due date if I do not pay for the renewal right away and then change my renewal date to 3 months later. She also mentioned that after the renewal date, the cashier will ask me if I would like to renew my membership, so it is not necessary for me to keep the renewal slip. Anyways, other than that experience, I had a pretty positive one. And typically do when I am at Costco. read more

After waiting inline for On 3/18/202050 minutes on 3/18/2020, finally entered Shoreline Costco at 10:15am. TP was completely out, just 15 minutes after store opening, but I got everything else in my list. As I entered the checkout line, there was only 1 customer ahead of me. When she proceeded forward to the register and I followed her moved up slowly, immediately I was yelled at "GET BEHINDS THE YELLOW LINE" by Both the cashier & the bagger (Stacy & Shane), then I notice my front wheels has passed the yellow line. I looked the register left of me, I saw the Caucasian lady was way passed her yellow line, all the way to the conveyor belt, waiting for her turn and no one yelled at her. I figure, being an Asian man and the recent discrimination against Asian episode took place at Costco, I quickly moved over to stand behind that Caucasian lady and avoid the two guys yelled at me. read more

15 min for a large pepperoni pizza. Use the kiosk? You get your pie immediately. Pay cash? You must wait, prepare to be shamed when you ask obvious questions, then hear them talk, acting like you're not standing right there, "Impatient customers, geez...yea, it's ok" ...really? I used to manage a pizza business and the people that work here treat it like a vacation: large pizza-one topping...5 min tops. Love the insincere, "Have a nice day." Worst customer service ever. 1st time getting food there. Last time Wanna pay cash? Sorry you must wait. read more

Yeah, it's a very busy location, but this is a shoutout to their wine department. They always seem to stock more and more local wines, which I absolutely love. I spoke to a gentleman from a winery I have not heard of before, called Comvergence Zone. If you live anywhere near Seattle, the name alone should be enough to pique your curiosity. He was kind enough to tell me a bit of the history of his winery and a bit about the two red blends currently at the Costco location. They are certainly priced right. Will have to report back after tasting, but as things go at Costco, when they're out of a limited run item, they're out. Go and support a local winemaster! Edit: The Storm Front is a nice dark red blend with soft tannins. Only 4 years old but very drinkable now. It's fruity with a somewhat earthy undertone. Slightly bold upfront. Not sure if it would stand up to a steak though. Overall, I'm glad to have bought two! read more

Great selection and easy to get through. Always have what I need and in an amount that makes sense. Sometimes they rotate out items I like but I quickly find new favorites. read more

Usually I shop Costco on a random quarterly basis - mostly because I hate the insane parking lot and crowds. I'm a strategic shopper, buy few items and wished there was an 'express lane'. I'm just all about the great deals on gas. Just have to pick the appropriate times to shop or pump gas. I have not been to Costco in ages, but had to write about two visits on 8/19/14 and 8/26/14. The hot dog with 20 oz. soda combo for $1.50 plus tax - delish! Bad food choice, but it screams tasty summer goodness to me! Plus shockingly - no line when I paid for two monster bags of Doritos and then no line to buy my hot dog/soda combo. Probably should have bought a lottery ticket after this visit. Never, ever had that happen where I just walk up on a late afternoon! And that's why this gets a 4 star Yelp post. read more

We always like to shop this Costco. Last three months all products became expensive. Can they decrease the price? All products are good, but expensive. read more

Love going to this Costco because the parking is plentiful on the weekdays, even though it can be very crowded on the weekend. Lots of samples to be had. The service is usually good and helpful. Food court has the usual selection of churros, hot dog/polish dog w/ soda combo, chicken melt, berry smoothie and yogurt with berry topping. They do have a coffee vending machine to help decrease the line length. read more

You feel the raw POWER of this costco location as soon as you walk in. Why would you go to the downtown location, when you can instead experience this ECHO LAKE masterpiece. The order of the aisles in this location are better than most others; the more useless items are more out of the way, and this one is less crowded. read more

Don't order anything from costco online. If something goes wrong you'll get stuck in delivery hades. They missed multiple delivery dates even when the product said "out for delivery." Called Costco Logistics multiple times and waited on hold for no less than 90 minutes each time. The longest hold time was 3 hours!!, I know the physical stores are different than Costco Logistics but there is no actual place to provide feedback to the logistics team so I'm doing it here. There's no Twitter account, email, or even address to send a physical letter to. Now, my 69 year old mom has a washer dryer delivery issue and is facing a similar issue. But it's worse because she's has to lug her laundry to a laundromat in the dead of winter. Costco logistics is making me reconsider my entire relationship with Costco. read more

TIRE CENTER ONLY: Stiffed me for 2 hours after my appointment schedule, ended up at Discount Tires. WHY DIDN'T I READ YELP REVIEWS BEFORE GOING HERE? It would have saved so much time. Not all Costcos are managed the same and this one is so much different. I booked a 1:30pm appointment to have a nail patched in my Costco bought tires. Arrived 5 mins early to a huge line out the door for walk-ins. After 20 mins Bearded white guy with backwards baseball cap gets to me, asks two questions (phone and keys) then heads out their back door. He hadn't let me know an ETA or even if he had enough info, let alone ask where I parked the car. Gone for 15 mins, he finally he comes back to the front desk and I ask him "are we done?" He says "yes". I ask about an ETA which he responds to as "For You, an hour and a half". What an odd thing to say as it borders on being aggressively impolite and possibly racist from a standard question that everyone will ask. I ask for my keys back, drive to Discount Tire and 20 mins later I am on my way home with a repaired flat. COSTCO: IF CUSTOMERS MAKE APPOINTMENTS AND YOU BLOW THEM OUT BY AN HOUR AND A HALF, THEN YOUR MANAGEMENT SKILLS SIMPLY SUCK. I have called Corporate Costco and complained about this poorly managed department read more

It's true what all the other reviews say, this location sucks compare to the Lynnwood location. We live in Shoreline and we go to the Lynnwood one instead whenever we get a chance to. The parking at the Shoreline location is always crowded and confusing. Super tight spaces. They are membership nazis, especially certain cashiers, which I think people know so they avoid that line unless lest want to be roasted. If my mom isn't with me for even a simple box of overpriced blueberries and pack of almond milk I need to pull out my ID to confirm we live in the same household. read more

Tire Center is not good. Long waits. They do not answer the phones. If you get a nail in your tire, they give you an appointment 1 month later, or you can leave it all day Saturday if you arrive 20 minutes before opening. The free tire repair is a false Costo promise. Les Schwab and Discount Tire will help you fast. read more

If Costco and Amazon were to be one Super Center - I'd never have to leave home. Costco = need you all the time!! Gas lines are long & ridiculous although it flows well. Their tire center needs better ventilation as one could pass out from all the fresh tires. I like their Executive membership rewarding 2% + rebate every year. read more

-------------------- I had never enjoyed a large chain store like I enjoy Costco Club. This store includes everything ranging from food to utensils and work materials! I love that they have a pharmacy and an eye center as well here, since that makes it easier for me to go get my eyes checked and get some shopping done. Need a new membership! read more

It's a little pricey but it's nice when your buying large amounts of one thing. Costco is one of the largest subscription based markets although I barely go there 1 or twice two months. read more

Costcos Kirkland brand bacon bits are not like Hormel. I purchased several bags thinking to stock up for any shortages that may arise. They were a couple dollars cheaper per package so I thought "why not?" The first package I opened was completely moldy throughout so immediately tossed in the garbage. The second one has no mold but seemed to have an inordinate amount of fat. I segregated the fat from the meat and was amazed at huge amount. I then wrote Kirkland and reported my discoveries but have never heard back. I opened the remaining 2 packages; 1 had mold that I tossed out and the other I separated all the fat out and froze the balance. I'm only buying Hormel bacon bits from now on. It's a little more costly but no mold or huge amounts of fat to be concerned with. read more

One of the best locations as well as store-wise; it's absolutely gigantic with nicely-placed parking spots. In a square layout to the entrance so no spot is too far. Don't like those rectangular-shaped lots. Even the food section has 3 pop machines, and yellow paint lines for 5 lineups at the cashier, quite organized. Located in a gorgeous plaza with Home Depot, and a slew of other big name stores. read more

It's amazing how the staff and clientele at each Costco location can vary so much. In Everett, people literally shop in their pajamas and bedroom slippers. It's soooooo cozy! If you show up in sweat pants and a t-shirt, you are overdressed. Staff is generally nice, and parking is o.k. most of the time, but you get a feeling that you should keep an eye on your purse the entire time before someone else helps themselves to it. Woodinville is dreamy. It's less busy, the parking lot is big, with nice spacious spots, lots crosswalks, and this location has lots of the Woodinville wines, and everything is always in stock when I need it. They even have an express lane if you've just popped in for a pie. Introducing Shoreline Costco: The parking lot is a shark pool. You are lucky to find a spot within a two block radius, and God forbid you go there on a weekend because you might get plowed over before you even get a chance to shop. The inside isn't much better. People dart here and there, slam into you and don't say "excuse me", the lines are backed up so far that if you were hoping to buy anything in the health and beauty department, you are out of luck unless you cross a barricade three people deep. I went there today for 5 items, and they were out of 3 of them. Then, there's the staff.... The guy who was sampling out the flavored waters shouted, "Lemon-lime!", "Blackberry!", "It's really good!", over and over again like a broken record. Even as I stood in front of him asking questions, he still shouted it out in my face. Remember in the movie "Naked Gun" where the officer was trying to get gawking tourists to leave the scene of a murder? They stood 2 feet in front of his megaphone as he yelled, "Please disperse, there is nothing to see here!" ....Well, that's how I felt. Then there was Stacy, the checker, who not once made eye contact with me, and who pulled my shopping cart towards him at the same time that me and my 4th month along pregnant belly were leaning over into it to grab items to unload. It caught me off guard and snagged my shirt, and I even blurted out, "Ouch!" as it came out from under me....and I don't even think he noticed. He then, still having not looked in my direction once yet, held out his hand for my Costco card. I thought about putting something wet and cold in his hand instead, you know, just to surprise him the way he surprised me, but two wrongs don't make a right, do they? So, apparently, I'm supposed to know that I don't have to wait for them to finish ringing up my stuff because Stacy curtly asked me, "What are you waiting for??"... Um....o.k...so A) Are you talking to me?...because you STILL haven't looked at me. B) I'm waiting for you to give me my card back and C) Where the hell am I??? Am I being punked?? A stranger approached me in the parking lot and said, "Remind me never to come here on a weekend again. Everyone is in such a bad mood!"... Glad it wasn't just me. So, yes, it's a Costco.....but it's certainly not the one I'll be returning to again. Good grief! read more

Pretty much exactly what you would expect from a typical Costco. Pros: -Finding parking isn't as bad as it is in California. The lines are shorter too, even during what I would think are "peak hours." -Fresh poke for $16/lb! (I've never seen this before. No free samples though...haha). Cons compared to other Costco's I've shopped at: -This one doesn't sell plants (they actually sell lemon trees, bonsai, etc. at the Alhambra location). I was looking for some to brighten up the apartment and will probably have to check out the nursery along the way. -Exiting out the front of the parking lot takes forever... -I wish there was a location closer to U-District/Wallingford. Traffic is always bad driving back South. Will continue to do most of my grocery shopping at this location. read more

As far as Costco's go... Let's be honest it's going to be a 5. I'm going to rate it for it's food however. The food is dirt cheap. $1.50 Hot Dogs with a drink, $2.99 Chicken Bakes. What's not to love? The only downfall with all this is that it's a cash only establishment and they don't serve Sprite as a fountain drink. You can however, purchase a bottle of sprite for a buck which is pretty dang cheap compared to vending machines anywhere else. If your trying to ball on a budget, come to the Costco Food Court! read more

Costco is great. It has everything. Including clueless rubes. First off, this store is in the mega-super-complex that is suburbia consumer shopping world. Meaning a huge strip mall of big ass stores. It was a zoo in the parking lot. People taking a hour to load their car, park their car, unload their car. It was absolutely insane on the weekend. Joining this "special" club was a very "special" experience, due to their "special" employees. Nicole is one of these. She would rather stare at a blank page than do her job. She's probably only been their for a few months, but already her eyes are glazed over and she's wondering when her next break is. But she's stuck there with all those rubes, all day long, so I can't be too mad that it took her 45 minutes to sign us up. It's a madhouse. They have everything. If there was ever a zombie uprising, this is the place to go. We got lost too many times that we opened up the food we were hoping to purchase and began to enjoy it. Just in case we didn't make it. It's a fun trip when you don't care and just want to explore. But be prepared to handle all the yokels, who are selfish consumers. Definitely a haven for "me, me, me" people. And people really eat lunch here. So weird. The checkout guy was awesome. Thanks for the papertowels. Oh and they take credit cards. I have no idea what problem these other people are having. read more

I used to have a love affair with Costco when I was a Los Angeleno. Even though I hated that you had to use debit or AMEX, I loved buying fruit here, and I loved the gas prices. I hadn't actually visited a Costco in WA until recently, and now I know I won't be returning. For starters, I don't really NEED to buy in bulk. But also, when I do buy things (fruit) that I would normally go through rather quickly, they rot way too fast. And the last time I bought fruit here, I ate almost half a clamshell of raspberries before realizing there was a dead, refrigerated bee inside. I don't mean to be anti-nature or high-maintenance, but that's just gross. Mostly grossed out at the thought of eating a stinger, to be honest, but ugh. I have an expired membership here, and I probably wouldn't renew unless it was to get gas. But seeing as this is my closest location (I live in Ballard), I probably won't be returning at all. read more

I ask you, if you were retired and needed to buy a single head of bib lettuce where would you go on a Friday night??? Costco??? Hmmm??? Go figure, for some weird reason my parents allow me to tag along on their trips to Costco, actually they are very generous and ask if we need anything, which we usually do, and they pay! Not bad for having to push a huge over packed shopping cart around a bunch of grumpy old folks, lost families looking for loved ones, or open mouthed first time Costco shoppers trying to find something. By the way shoppers, PLEASE stay to your right while pushing your carts around, no your other right!!! My shins and backs of my ankles thank you... So, here we are typical Friday night, crowds aren't too bad, free samples abound, ahhh.... While standing outside for my parents to get some forgotten item off of their shopping list, what do I see?? Yup, you guessed it, a couple in their mid-70's walking out with 1(one) yes, a single container that held what 2(two) heads of bib lettuce. 3(three) chuckles from me, watching these two old-farts beehatch'n about how crowded the place was..... Costco, gotta luv'em, just for the pure entertainment factor!! -1 star for no longer carrying the whole bean Kona coffee they got me addicted to!! Plus 1/2 star for the cheap gas... read more

I do shop at costco a lot. For the money they make, they really should spend some money on their app. It sucks real bad.

This Costco gets an A+ from me for having tall double shot hot mocha as part of their food court menu. HOW COOL IS THIS?? I love Costco in general and this one just takes the cake. Fantastic! Unfortunately there are no Costco's in the Bay Area or Southern California that also have this cafe menu item :( read more

How can I not have reviewed this place already? We've been coming here for nearly six years and haven't had any problems on any of the visits. So what can I say that you don't already know about Costco? It's a big-ass warehouse shopping club and with your yearly membership, you get access to items sold in massive sizes. We stock up on kitchen supplies and cases of low sodium black beans + garbanzos (mmm hummus!). They sell gift cards to local movie theatres and restaurants. And their inexpensive calling cards have come in handy for family members during the holidays. My boyfriend has snagged some great clothing items - Kenneth Cole trousers for twelve dollars and gorgeous CK jeans for under twenty. During the summer, their fruit selection is fantastic and if you're hungry, just walk around and enjoy some samples. Your hunger will be kept at bay in no time. Oh yeah! If you like rotisserie chicken, theirs is well cooked + flavourful. I've grabbed one for our dinner and had leftovers for two days. And you can't beat their dog + soda for $1.50 or a churro if you want something sweet. read more

Worst custom service! I am writing on my behalf of my mother since we together went for grocery shopping. A manager here at Costco should train their employees better. A cashier helper, Michelle, was so rude to my mother. My mother asked her that she needed a box for groceries. But Michelle just put our groceries into a cart and told us that they are out of box. But all other cashiers have a plenty of boxes. So my mom went to get a box. But still she just kept putting our groceries into our cart without a box. Then when my mom got a box from another cashier and asked her to put groceries here again, then she told us like "you guys should ask another cashier when bring a box from other place" My mom, of course, asked another cashier to bring a box. I don't know what she was talking about. Actually, she should be the one who got a box for use if we request. But she complaints of my mom because she brought a box from another cashier. She was rude enough to make feel my mom and me awful! read more

Best place to shop during covid year. Only thing I look forward to and I make great meals at home! Thank you

Who doesn't like a Costco date? My bf and I come to this Costco about once a month to get a polish dog and stock up on food. I like this location because it seems less busy than the Seattle Costco. This past time we went we had filled our cart with about a dozen different items-- some large, some small (i.e. rotisserie chicken, contact solution, laundry detergent, yogurt, frozen foods, satsumas etc.) At checkout the courtesy clerk begin putting the items back in the cart without asking if we needed a box. My boyfriend then asked politely if we could have a box. The courtesy clerk looked at our cart and asked curtly, "What do you need a box for?" Uh, how about to carry all of our stuff from our car to our second story apartment? Instead of packaging our products in a box, she placed one in the cart exclaiming, "Here, if you need a box, then you can figure it out." So, after we were done checking out, we pulled over to the food cart area to repackage everything into our box... which it seems like should have been the courtesy clerk's job to do in the first place. It wasn't a huge deal, or something that would deter me from coming back. I've worked as a courtesy clerk before at a grocery store, and if a customer asked me to bag their groceries so it was more convenient for them to bring home, I would do it gladly without any sass. read more
