I love CostCo in general, and this store has the typical inventory. What I have noticed over the last few years is that the overall customer service at this location has really gone down hill. We have had quite a few less than desireable experiences at this location, and I would recommend you go to a different store like the one in South Seattle, if you are able. read more

Just picked up my new glasses from the optometry center. The staff here are helpful and nice. They make sure to go in order of the people who have taken numbers. When it is your turn they give you their full attention. I feel like I am a very important customer. I will be bringing my other pair of glasses here to get lenses replaced. Thanks Costco! read more

Costco - Love my glasses! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Shoreline, Washington

Always an easy quick stop! They are very efficient in how they move people through the lines which I different from other Costcos. And Mike? Or was it Doug? (50 something year old whose daughter is in university) who works in membership area was great!!!! Super helpful in getting my membership going when I upgraded it!:) read more

Costco has become our grocery store. Dave's Killer Bread, great produce, and samples samples samples!! Also, if you have an EBT card, Costco accepts those. I know the store can sometimes be difficult for parking, and that the lines can get long and crowded, but it's all worth it. We get plenty of food for our family, and we get to try lots of new things we may not otherwise be able to try. So, whether you are buying for your business or for your family, this is a great place to shop! It's worth the cost of membership! read more

Costco is one of my favorite stores! Have you ever played that cheesy game where you are asked if you could pick any store where you could buy whatever you wanted for life and never have to pay for anything, what would it be? Mine would be Costco. I recently discovered that you can sign in on costco.com under the photo section and order prints. I got 130 pics at 4"x6" for $20! I like this particular location since it's close to home, there's always parking in the gigantic parking lot, the gas station moves along quickly, and all of the employees I've interacted with have been pleasant and/or helpful. Catering options are great here for parties and birthdays. Also, getting disposable dinnerware here is a wonderful option for events. Love coming to Costco to find a gift for someone. read more

I have been shopping here in this Shoreline location for about an year, and I have to say 70% of the time the staffs were rude or unhelpful. There are a few good one. I had staffs not so willing to help , chat with colleagues while helping me, or didn't handle the produce with care at checkout (banana, watermelon, avocado..etc). Also had a few encounters at the checkout where the cashier tells me that I should do this and that, and cuts me when i talked. My experience were much better at Bellingham costco where I lived before. read more

Time for all new tires is never something you look forward to. After checking consumer reports and all local availabilty & prices, Costco was lowest with in-stock availability. I actually wanted to purchase from Sam's Club; however, the tire I wanted was unavailable for ordering the day their Michelin sale started!!! Losing business Sam's! To Sam's credit, they would have price matched Costco. I would have rated the 2 guys @ the counter both the day I initially inquired & the day of my appt slightly lower. I seemed to be an interruption to their day. Or, they aren't thrilled to wait on a 50-something grandmother with questions. Both times, I was the ONLY customer in sight! Worth a 5-star mention is Marcos. He was the one to add air in my badly cracking tires....to get me by until 2 days later when I had appt for new to be installed. And, he assured me that I could stop again & again if pressure was going low. (I knew that but his concern was appreciated.) He also was the guy @ the counter when I returned late initial day to pre-pay for tires. According to Costco, pre-paying appt is the only way to ensure tire doesn't sell out before your appt. Odd, you would think they could mark 4 sold but perhaps not all folks show up for appts. Marcos was friendly, knowledgeable, & helpful. When tires were on, they sent a lovely although not well-spoken young woman up front to let me know my car was ready & give me the key. She did pass on info about the car's suspension, which I knew, but thought was great they mentioned. Overall, I could go here again for the price. Some places you don't look for all the staff to have exemplary service; this is one. read more

See all

I've been a Costco member for over 18 years BUT I'm from Miami (live there) but I travel all over the country to work. Now I'm here in my RV just got here from Phoenix AZ. The pharmacy got my refill from my script in Arizona in a day. I've used Costco all over the country. The pharmacy is way way cheaper than Wally World or CVS. I really like how it is the same across the country. Costco is way better with customers. The membership there pays for itself and the cheaper gas and OPTICAL is so much better. read more

Waiting into the forth hour for a walk in puncture repair. Big attitude from most of the tire shop staff. This is what's called a necessary evil. Not a good experience. read more

Costco has the best return policy. They also have a lot of great deals. Get the executive account

As good as it's gonna get! Costco becomes a part of the family especially if you have a big one. I don't necessarily but i do entertain at home a lot! So, this is my go-to for almost everything. First, they have Lots of pre-made foods from meats, sandwiches, salads and....alcohols. This is my one-stop shop for all of that. Second, if you are a borderline health nut, they have stuff for you too! From brand names or generics vitamins, simple meds for upset stomach, headaches, colds, you are in good hands for home remedies. You are fully covered as long as you carry your chipped card or lots of cash. You ask and they will point you out to the right directions. Hungry? Walk around and try out promo samples. If you like, you buy one of each too! Or, go to the hotdogs station plus pizzas and sodas or mocha some something. They will entice you as well. You need to use the restroom? Go right ahead as they keep it nice and clean and, fully equipped with hygiene needs to stay clean. What else?? Um, i think that sums it up along with their already wonderful services and staff. I think that speaks for itself why I love Costco and that's all there is to it! read more

Costco - No need to bake ur own. This is perfectly made. - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Shoreline, Washington

This place sells a lot .of things that you might want to buy. If you buy them here, you will spend less money, but be prepared to buy unusually large sizes of some grocery products. I suggest using the human cashier lines rather than self checkout lanes. Support human jobs. Death to robots! read more

Service is shit. Never got the pizza that I wanted nor did they try to fix the issue.

Eleise in membership is amazing! Super thorough and helpful AND used gender neutral pronouns when addressing people she didn't know! 100% !! Love being a member of this Costco read more

this costco absolutely RULES, clean, well stocked, employees are amazing, parking/getting there is way less heinous than the seattle one. xoxoxo love it read more

Thank you for your business. Costco help us in this tough period. Now you can buy any food without limits. I visit this store every two weeks. read more

Costco in general is a great place. They place emphasis on customer service. Great prices. Hotdog and soda still sells for $1.50. Great store, great company, great employees. read more

I have had good experiences here but recently ordered a birthday cake for my daughter and when I called to cse if it was going to be ready in time since I have not heard anything from them they person I spoke with was very rude as if I was incoveniencing and ended up hanging up on me after saying it would be done at the requested pickup time read more

Costco is great. This location is fairly standard. The samples are fantastic! The prices are really great per unit (remember you are buying in bulk). They have some great technologies-books-gifts for the holidays. They even have the local chinook and entertainment books at a discounted rate (savings on savings on...). Parking can be a bit insane...along with the checkout lines during peak hours. The staff is really positive and helpful. read more

20mins yo get one sandwich is nuts, not even that busy, had I known about that self serve prepay was 100 times faster, saw 3 guys got there later and got their chick and bake and left while I was still in that short line, to make matter worst, 10 mins in line later, when I placing my order, the lady said sorry is not my fault, but is gonna be little over 10 mins longer for them to make more, I should have just left! read more

I was on my way out after shopping and i seen one of the workers harassing a homeless gentleman who had money to just buy some food and I heard her insulting him calling him horrendous names that I will not mention on here and she physically pushed him out while he wasn't even being aggressive or rude or even pushing his way in he simply asked if he could go in with his money to buy some food because he is a diabetic and needed to take food with his insulin and then threatened to call the police. This is absolutely heartbreaking when was it a crime to be hungry? And not to mention the lady got physical and I personally would not bring my family here anymore since Costco thinks its okay to physically assault and harass a human being! I will be canceling my membership after this I do not tolerate the acts of harrasment and bullying just because someone has money and simply wants food! The lady had long blonde hair, glasses, jeans, high boots, and a gray jacket. But like always the companies wont do anything because they don't care but if the roles were switched I promise you this would have been a big deal it would've even made it on the news. read more

Literally the only Costco I have ever been to that you have to have your membership card to go into the foodcourt. The people working at the front are so rude and condescending as well. read more

I've been going to Costco since Christ was a Cowboy.. Back in the day, a small hot dog cart out in front of the stores sold a Polish & Coke combo for $1.50. Fast forward to 20 years later: the cart is now a counter and the price has remained the same. As a chubby pre-teen, I loooved coming here. I remember begging my mom to get the the cherry filled croissants and the mammoth muffins.. or the bulk bags of pepperoni sticks and the giant cans of Chef Boyardee Ravioli. Sad, I know.. Then after all of this (most of the time I never got any of it), on our way out.. I'd plead for a Polish and a coke, which I usually got. I'd finish that bad boy in about 5 minutes.. Yikes, right? But I digress.. Costco is great in lots of ways. Bulk coffee beans are cheap. Gas is inexpensive.. and if you need to get anything in large amounts, this is where it's at. Oh, I find this North Seattle location a bit less chaotic than the others.. Go for the bulk and stay for the dog. Your gut might not thank you, but your wallet sure as hell will. read more

I allow myself to go to Costco once every three months. I budget myself 75 dollars to spend. Having spent 250 dollars, I leave. Fk you, Costco. It's a love-hate relationship. read more

I apologize in advance for the long post. This morning I'm just about to celebrate victory - I'm in the check-out line! And then then one of the blue vest clip-boarded vipers attacks me at the register. Him: "May I check your rebate today?" Me: "Sure." (I was stupidly thinking he was making sure I got the instant manufacturer's rebate advertised on several of the products I was buying). Him: "It's only $55 for you to upgrade your membership.......blah blah blah" Me: (In a nutshell) No thank you. Him: "Why?" Me: (Insert my perfectly rational explanation here now). Him: "But it's risk free. If you don't get the whole $55 rebate we'll give you your $55 dollars back." Me: "No thank you." Him: (Insert his "basically you're an idiot speech" now). Me: (Keep in mind I'm trying to remember my partner's PIN number for the debit card I'm trying to pay with, the boxer wants to know if I want boxes, and this guy won't take the hint). "No thank you, I'll pass." He finally leaves me alone! For fuck's sake! Is the pain finally over? No. The checker (Alicia W.) starts blathering on (not to me, to the boxer helping her) about how she just doesn't understand why people don't upgrade. It makes no sense to her at all. When Alicia W. finally sees the look on my face and realizes that I do not appreciate being called an idiot right in front of my face she tries to recover by involving me in the conversation. She looks right at me and says, "So why don't you want to upgrade?" WTH? I just navigated your parking lot, issued at least 60 smiling "pardon me"s to your crazy mob of shoppers, gave you hundreds of dollars, fended off your upgrade Nazi, and after witnessing the whole exchange you can't just comment on the weather and say "Have a nice day?" Why the fuck do we need to cover this upgrade issue AGAIN?????? And what business is it of yours anyways? Me: (With eye contact in my "I'm about to go postal" voice) "I just got "the business" from HIM. I don't need it from YOU TOO." Her: (Silence. Continues to ring up.) Me: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude." I don't know WHY I felt it necessary to apologize because I was direct, not rude, and she deserved it. Her: (All of a sudden she's now chit-chatting with the boxer again.) "Gosh, it can be a bit much all of this upgrade stuff. "No" ought to be enough." Ya think? Ya think you might not want to harass your customers FOR YEARS about upgrades? Ya think you might not want to talk about them in front of their faces? Ya think you might want to APOLOGIZE? The person doing the boxing became instantly sugary sweet to me. I've never heard more "Have a great day's from one person. Alicia W.? Nothing. Wow. Well, when I apologized she had the generosity to say, "That's ok." Super. All I wanted to do was get in, get out, give Costco my hundreds of dollars and make it as painless as possible. And yet, I left choking back tears pissed that these people pushed me to the point of snapping at them. I'd rather they just know their place. I'd rather have NO service than BAD service. read more

Been coming to this Costco for years now. When you get to the checkout lines they make it run very smoothly, every time I'm there I only wait a couple of mins. Always have everything in stock or if you have a question about a item the staff are very helpful. read more

This is the under performing Costco. Sometimes I come here reluctantly thinking, you know, maybe they've changed. Maybe they'll love me like it was when we first met. Nope. The produce I buy here is half rotten the next day. The savings kind of goes away when you have to throw half of it in the trash immediately. I'm not sure why things are either poorly refrigerated or old here, because things go way better in SODO. You can likely go here for all of your other Costco hellabulk needs, but I'd skip all of the things that you should eat, and just buy the things you shouldn't. read more

I go to Costco about once every one or two months. The Aurora Costco has a huge parking lot so although you probably won't be lucky enough to find a close spot, you will find a parking spot somewhere. Prices are great, employees are generally friendly. Good buys at Costco: wine (big selection) frozen foods gourmet cheeses gift cards! The gift cards are great. You can get movie ticket vouchers to Regal or AMC for $8/ticket, Brown Bear car wash vouchers in the summer, a variety of upper tier (mostly chain) restaurant certificates (Metropolitan Grill, Purple, Daniel's Broiler, Palomino to name a few) and certificates for other entertainment at a deal. Not so good at Costco: vegetables fruit Unless you are serving a big group within the next couple days, buying fresh food at Costco isn't worth it. The food goes bad too fast! The lines can be long and the fellow shoppers can be pushy but if I go just once in awhile I can keep my sanity! read more

Costco...why must I love you AND hate you? On the weekend, it's a zoo. Hundreds of people swinging around their giant carts with no care or awareness of those around them. Abandoning them in the middle of an aisle so that other people in their giant carts can try to maneuver around them. Sample ladies yelling about their product. Insane lines. The parking lot nightmare. But then there's the Costco you love. The one that lets you have an insane amount of cheese for 7 bucks. Where you can a bag of popcorn as big as your head for 3 and a huge case of wine for a better price than any other store. I find myself telling myself I need something just because it's double the size. Look at this giant jar of pickled asparagus! I NEED IT. And those damn sample ladies always rope me in one way or the other. I can't pass up that amazing smelling garlic bread! Now I need 50 lbs of that garlic bread, don't you understand?! After you've walked around, you work up an appetite and need a hot dog or a slice of pizza that's like 6,523,451 calories but it's 2 bucks so it's ok. Then you have to wait in line behind all the bozos who can't pick up the tempo or steer their giant carts just so someone can take a look at your receipt and items. Seriously, who is going to jack anything from this place? Where would you even hide it?! No, sir, I didn't take anything from here! I am just 35 months pregnant. More attack of the carts in the parking lot. Followed by people with either too little or too much patience making the parking lot a very dangerous situation. I am always terrified I will be t-boned or shanked by someone who has spent a little too much time at Costco and will kill in order to get home as fast as possible. It's a time suck, it's jarring, and it's wonderful. Costco, you are riveting. read more

It's a costco, it's hard to rate it too poorly. This one is clean, has all the same things as every other Costco. My issue with Costco is as a person without a family I can't finish things before they go bad, so it's not really saving me money unless it's something for a party, or something I know my roomate will eat. I try to hustle my mom into taking me to Costco when I go visit my parents because then she shares half of her veggies with me. sneaky, sneaky. The boss and I used this Costco to 'cater' an event we had in the office last month and were able to do it a lot more inexpensively than we would have any other way. The downfall here was that the "food court" was closed and I was desperate for a mondo-sized slice of Costco cheese pizza, and all they had was hotdogs. Do you know what's in hotdogs?! No, thank you! My favorite ever Costco find is a huge container of taco seasoning for like $3.50, it's enough to make like 100 rounds of tacos, which is awesomely cheap because normally those little packets of taco seasoning are a dollar a piece. Hello Costco, you are saving me money! If you have a family, Costco's the best place to shop. Can't wait to crack out some babies to get even more of my 2% a year back. yippie! read more

I heart Costco. It's always dangerous for me to shop here because I always end up walking out with more than I intended to buy. I like this Costco the best. I've practically grown up with it so its like home to me The parking lot is huge as it shares the lot with Home Depot and a bunch of other small businesses. What I appreciate about Costco is that they actually acknowledge their customers requests. They didn't have the Vita Coco Coconut water at this location so I decided to go to their suggestion/comments box to put a request in for the coconut water. So the other day I go shopping here again and what do I see? My precious Vita Coco Coconut water! I was extremely giddy like a kid in a candy store. Thank you Costco for listening to me! read more

Costco I am a fan of.....but not this location. I couldn't believe my eyes and ears when I overheard an employee making rude comments about Asian customers. I figured perhaps that employee was having a bad day, so I kinda brushed it off. On a trip later that week, yet another Costco employee was telling a non Asian customer about how "cheap and inconsiderate these Chinese people are". I will not be going to this location anytime soon. read more

My love affair with Costco continues to burgeon and flourish into one of adoration, admiration, and respect. While every other place in the world has raised their prices to accommodate our flailing economy, Costco has remained faithful in delivering the same high-quality food products (yes, I said high quality) in an expedient fashion while keeping prices steadily the same. I'm talking about the food court, of course. Polish dog AND drink for $1.50? That is virtually unheard of. You spoil me. A WHOLE pizza pie complete with all the requisite toppings for $9.95? GET OUT. Churro for $1? You can't even buy a bottle of h2o for $1 anymore, let alone an elongated piece of fried crunchy dough doused in cinnamon sugar. The only thing I'm ambivalent about is the froyo (a little too sweet for my taste) but if you've seen the size of that thing - you would get it anyway because to not get it seems like you're wasting good money (counterintuitive, I know, but just think about it for a second). And after you're done with food court, you proceed into the giant warehouse and sample. I just don't know what else you can ask for. read more

ICK! I went to Costco earlier tonight with a friend and as we're rolling by the magazine area, I smelled PEE! At first I thought maybe my friend's canned noodle soup leaked or smtg but then this lil boy passing by made a face and told his mom, "Ew Mom... what's that smell? It smells like..." Then my friend also smelled it. Then as my friend and I continued along towards the meat area, WE SMELLED POOP. NOT KIDDING. Someone must be going around leaving little smelly surprises for people. I don't think I will be shopping at this Costco location anymore. read more

The traffic into this place sucks. Once you enter the warehouse of surplus, it feels like a expanded Walmart. Costco use to be cool 10 years ago..now it seems like the average customer is a walmart cast off. They dont credit./debit cards at the hot dog/pizza eatery..lame... And where is the porn? come on Costco..u can do better. read more

Aint no good reason not to be a Costco member. Yes, the sizes are ginormous, but the prices and selection are unbeatable. Besides the everyday great prices, they run sales every few months that are pretty amazing. $64 for $100 gift certificates? $2.50 for Mary's Gone Crackers? Awesome gas prices? If you shop there a few times a year, or heck, just get gas there, you'll have made back the cost of the membership. Do yourself and your friends a favor - get a membership, and share the bulk sizes. From cookies to coffins, Costco's got you covered... read more

Costco is where it's at! This used to be my go-to location is it was just minutes from where I lived, and I still stop in if I'm in the area and am in need of something from Costco. Really, it's pretty standard as far as most Costco locations go and there is more than enough perking to go around. There have been many...many times that I have filled my gas tank here as they are always several cents lower than anywhere else. Pair that with the fact that you can chow down on samples and then get a hot dog or a slice of pizza for less than 2 bucks...the deals just don't stop! Did I mention the chicken bakes? They are like hot pockets on steroids filled with chicken breast meat, cheese, and bacon...sooo good. Whether stocking up on household items, buying a new TV, or buying a way too big tub of mayonaisse, this is the place to go! read more

Yours truly and the hubsters like to live in history. We don't keep up with the "Joneses" so to speak - we are behind technology and then some! The time had come for a new computer - a laptop - after much research, we decided Costco would be the best bet. The last time we bought our last computer (actually CPU) was about 6 years ago (yes, that is how old our computer is, and it's... lag...ging...) and at Best Buy. No repeat performances there, since Best Buy SUCKS! We picked up our hot buy, presented our gift cards and debit card... and we aren't even a member! Ha! After much talk w/ the hubby we decided to get a membership - so now we are all set to go. When people say it's hard to spend a little here, they are right! But it's such a good deal, how can you say no to the double box of Honey Nut Cheerios for $6.60?? I couldn't. 'Nuff said. Minus one star - Only thing that is sucky is they don't accept CREDIT cards, unless it's an Amex. I'm not that fancy, so I gotta put the rest on the debit. read more
