Crappy kroger bacon! 3/4 of the bacon was fat. Unacceptable! That was the only bacon I had. Don't want to go buy more for the recipe I'm doing. Maybe it's time for Kroger to change who they get their bacon from. read more

Fred Meyer's are a PNW institution. This location in Burien is near the airport and so I often swing by after a trip out of town to re-stock on groceries. They also have a BECU atm outside of it which is convenient (part of COOP network for all credit unions with no fees) read more

Best produce section by far! Always fresh, well-stocked, clean and bright. Love that there's a Starbucks (and a milkshake machine! omg) in-store here, as well as a bank & atm. I don't typically shop here for clothes, but they do have a great selection of baby stuff and I love that I can buy pretty much anything else on my list here including home repair supplies and plants. Customer service desk workers are friendly, but the line can take FOREVER! Not sure what the right fix for this is, since I've had to go through it a few times and no matter if one or all of the stations are manned it still takes a long time. The regular cashier stations are all great though and the self-checkout is speedy and convenient! I find that Safeway tends to have better "club card" deals, but if I need one-stop shopping I'll always choose Fred Meyer for the convenience of having everything under one roof. With an infant in tow sometimes you just have to pick your battles and getting a baby in and out of a car once instead of multiple times is a godsend for this new mom! read more

I've been coming to Fred Meyer for years. The service has always been decent/good. The wait in the deli used to make me avoid it but recently I haven't been having to wait to get my food. I've had (Gina) and (Pam) slice my meats a few times and their customer service impressed me. The meat department worker stocking food (Angela) also was very helpful with my questions. The store overall was a 10/10. I'll be back, thanks Fred Meyer crew ! read more

Very poorly managed. Dirty store, Employees completely lacking common sense. This is strictly the fault of the management. The garden center is nice but they don't open it so it must be managed by someone else anyway. read more

The checker, Cassandra, refused to scan my rewards coupon, claimed it wasn't valid even though it most certainly is, argued with me rather than reading it, then THREW IT AWAY BEFORE I COULD USE IT! As if that wasn't enough, she rudely dropped my bagged items on the belt behind her, nearly out of reach, and then turned her back and ignored me when I had to stretch to retrieve the items I'd just purchased. Extremely rude and humiliating experience. read more

Can I say 3.5? Compare it to the other grocery stores in Burien and you are at a 4 star. It has it's issues, but overall I am very happy. Restocking is for some reason a huge problem with this store, I don't know why I wont guess. They don't restock during the night, so morning shopping trips might be painful. The coupons they send are just terrible. Maybe it's just me but I've almost never used them. I get gas here all the time, it is a huge convince to shop and then get gas with the discount which makes it a little more affordable. Also its a big station so lots of pumps I have never waited. They keep a good clean parking lot. This is honestly one of the nicest places you can go grocery shopping at in the area. you sometimes even find cute painted rocks the locals have left around.Transports and people abuse the fire lane like at all grocery stores unfortunately, and with no repercussions, expect it throughout the day. Self check-out is the way to go, it is still early so I will accept growing pains, but the machines need to have speeds increased so you are not constantly waiting to scan and place while the machine is still telling you to place the last item. I think 1 person is prob ideal, but honestly 2 seems to be needed. Age check.... waiting... coupon...waiting...new recipe tape...waiting... computer hiccup... waiting... the 1 person on the phone because for some reason the only person at self checkout is suppose to answer phones as well? Waiting... larger checkout lanes not open so have to go to 4 bag area with a full cart, and computer wants to know where every item is when the pile is falling over... yup... waiting.... ya get it, then multiple it by what, 6, 12 to 1 person? It works, it really does, but a little more work needs to go into making it work smoothly. The parking lot can be very dangerous, I would not recommend going near the tire center in the SW corner, the trucks that make delivery there block entire rows of cars in, and customers park in the lanes. The NW back section is a welcome entrance to the garden center, be sure to lock your doors, as I would in any parking lot. There is good, there is bad, but for my money, which is incredibly important to me, this is the place to go for the best deals with the least hassle. I would recommend going early morning or evening. read more

Still I will say Fred's is my grocery store...but I made a horrible mistake today and went to their deli counter again. This time is was for something that would go with bbq spare ribs. I opted to bring home some kind of Rotini salad they had. Seriously....somebody should be fired for selling that stuff. Fred's, you will continue to be my grocery store but I will forever, after being shammed twice, avoid the salad counter in your deli section. It's just not working for me. read more

This review is specific to the Fred Meyer Jewelry department at the BURIEN 1st Ave store. After buying and installing a new #362 swiss battery for my Rado watch from a different Fred Meyer costing $6.00 including tax, my watch still didn't work. That store told me I could go to Burien for a free diagnostic. However, the repairman there just suggested that I could buy a new battery for $20.00, and he would install it. If it works fine if not, no charge for the installation. I asked him repeatedly if he could evaluate the watch to see if it was worth repair. I was fully prepared to pay for a repair if needed. he would not say yes or no. He seemed more interested in selling me a 6.00 battery for $20.00. Very poor customer service! read more

my doctor prescribed me the brand name drugs, my insurance covers the brand name drugs and all I got were generics. what makes it worst, I wasn't even notified about substituting. I had to ask and, first, they were trying to tell me that my doctor didn't prescribed the brand name, then, that they don't have it... really upsetting cause I've had a couple bad experiences with the generics and, at this point, don't have a time to get the drugs from another pharmacy. oh, and I left the prescriptions four days ago, enough time to get me notified. won't go there again read more

The Fred Meyer florists are clutch. I came in the day before Valentine's Day this year and Norma who runs the florist department there was great. She gave me tips on what would go well with the roses I was buying for my gf, and made the process of getting a custom bouquet on Valentine's Day totally relaxed and great. Best thing was my gf loved the bouquet. Just wanted to call it out that Norma was great and I will be going to Fred Meyers for custom bouquets going forward. read more

Just had a unreal experience. My 4 year old was trying to be a big helper and help with groceries. We'll long story short a bag hit the floor, he went to pick it up and cut himself on a piece of glass now broken in the bag. Two employees rushed in like Medics on the battle field with bandages, napkins, and ointment. Wish I had they're names for a shout out but greatly appreciated. Thanks for making what could have been a ugly situation into nothing. They even sent another employee to replace the broken Alfredo sauce to save dinner. Much love!! read more

This pharmacy is the worst that I have ever done business with. I have dealt with this Fred Meyer off and on for more than 25 years. The only reason I go there is because my insurance allows certain ones and this is the closest to me. I have been told my prescription would be ready at 6:00 at night and I get there at 8:00 and it is still not ready. The people who work the counter are busy doing things so I stand there and wait several minutes while they finish what they are doing before they will assist me. Then the phone thing. Dont try to call a prescription in where you want to speak to them. I have been put on hold so long that it kept ringing back and they kept answering and putting it on hold again. And I have been hung up on. These people should have the concern to dispense medication with some kind of customer service. read more

Rarely go here but, on saturday we dropped to look a BBq and none of the seats had seat belts for kids? This seemed wierd because you'd think they would be in to safety and all. I mentioned something to a person who looked like a manager and they did not really seem to care. Also the checkout lady was SO slow it was painful. Don't go if your intrested in buckling up those kids. read more

Best service, attitude, helpful and friendly. The cashier manager Courtney is Awesome! read more

Went there today and I needed a power cart. The first one the battery died after five minutes. It took staff 45 minutes and 4 phone calls to get a new one. That one went for ten minutes. Third one get me to my car. Hey Freddy you need new batterys in your store carts please. read more

The driver who delivered my groceries wasn't wearing a mask. I asked him where it was and he said "in the car,I'll put it on when I get back in." ABSOLUTELY NOT COOL!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Ordered a ham 5 days in advance, came to pick it up and was told "oops, guess we didn't see the order last night, we can give you one tomorrow." Note the lack of apology. I need the ham today, that's when my party is, do you have anything you can do? I was offered a ... get this... a canned ham. If I wanted a canned ham I could've gotten one 5 days ago. Asked for the manager, who responded with "well sometimes stuff happens what do you want me to do?" Still, note the lack of apology. Left the rest of my cart of food for them to figure out what to do with, if you're looking for good meats and good service skip this place and go down the street to B&E! Fred Meyer clearly doesn't care. read more

Though smaller...your selection of Gluten Free items is much more affordable than the new "All gluten free" shop on 152nd (Start Fresh Market) I do hope you get a few more options in but for what you have and the affordability..I really appreciate it! And...who doesn't love reward points?? Thank you! read more

I cannot support a store that can't listen to their customers. My wife and I have gone to Freddie's for years but can't go here except in an emergency. On 3 separate occasions in the last 2 months we have seen mice running between aisles in the grocery portion of the store. On each occasion we have told a supervisor on duty and have gotten the nod from them that yeah we know yet clearly nothing or not enough has been done as of last night when we were there. This was at 7:30pm and the deli was still open serving food. I have worked at grocery and produce stores and understand seeing one is not rare but when you as a customer are seeing them with regularity there must be a MAJOR problem. Take care of it now... read more

I've always loved Fred Meyer just because I can find everything that I want there. Shoes. Toilet Paper, deli and car oil. One stop shopping is the best. Great customer service today. The man at the register went out of his way to find me a coupon so that I could save 15% on two pairs of boots. Who doesn't love to save money!?! He was very friendly and saved me money. read more

This review is especially for the deli staff. Thank you for being so gracious, and funny when you serve us hungry needy grouchy customers! And a big shout to Fred Meyer for providing ranch dressing with the hand breaded chicken tenders. read more

The prices appear to be better than other grocery stores, but the cashiers are very, very slow. They see the lines and still work at the speed of molasses. read more

Like all Fred Meyers no one can help you find anything, they constantly stock during peak shopping hours and act as if you are bothering them and messing up their day....their clothes are overpriced, Walmart like quality, and smell like they just came off a tuna boat. Save yourself the frustration and shop at ANY other store beside a Fred Meyer....their staff are rude and emotionless, and the only requirement for employment is breathing.... read more

It's been getting worse and worse using them, last straw today at the gas station pump and the attendant told me to wait for a while so he could chat with the guys doing the wax promotion. Hey, I hate dealing with customers like anyone, but that doesn't mean I tell them to wait while I chit chat with my coworkers. So now I'm at the Safeway gas three minutes away getting it for 6 cents less a gallon. You really taught me, generic Seattle Beardo #6794. read more

It's a lack of professionalism, the deal I received from the manager of that branch, Deli Department Mr. Zach. I'll ask you for the sushi - eating utensils. Utensils that in all branches of Fed Meyer are there. But in this branch, there never is. And Mr. Zach answered me, "it's not my problem or responsibility. In general in that branch when you are buying the employees you are treated very discourtedly and unprofessional. read more

I love Fred Meyer! However, this location is not my favorite because of two reasons. Firstly, the parking lot is always really crowded and not set up well. I've actually witnessed multiple fender benders there. Second, there is only one automatic door on the grocery entrance of the store which makes it hard for people to get in and out with huge carts. I don't know who designed that, but it was not a good idea at all. read more

Amazing guys. I just bought a 600 dollar laptop for 230 dollars. Okay so what that there are six buttons missing I will be buying them from ebay for 4 dollars a piece. The place is clean, prices are higher but i would prefer shopping here than walmart because at least as a corporation they treat their employees better. read more

Will never shop at any fred meyer location ever. experience was bad, customer service not helpful after my friends purse was stolen from her they didn't care and all they would offer was to call the cops. read more

I like the grocery store staff, but the starbucks was awful! The drink is wrriten correctly and made wrong, plus I had to wait 15 minutes to even get my drink when there was 2 baristas and one wasn't doing anything besides dishes like seriously!? Never coming here again. read more

Jeez. In the past 6 months or so the staff has taken a sharp decline. I will gladly wait in a longer line to have a checker I know help me. I was also told by staff at the deli that they were out of baked beans and low on chicken because of the "port strike all up and down the west coast". Really? You get your baked beans and chicken from overseas? How about just saying we mis-judged the demand and don't have any ready. Also there wasn't a strike all up and down the west coast. I hope I was the only person given this info. I only continue to shop here because of the sales and decent prices. read more

I really like Fred Meyers, they have a nice selection of different products and you can find pretty much anything for your shopping needs. I don't really do my grocery shopping here but sometimes I like to switch it up and buy some here for a change. They have a pretty good food selection and their deli isn't too bad either. Nice place to go for general shopping needs. read more

OK Freddies is my favorite place to shop.Close to home and everything under one roof .But this time of year they are a hazzard to get in the door..The back door which is my favorite cause I get to see Joy{my favorite helpful lady} clerking..everyone is wonderful there...BUT they have large boxes of cinnamon cones in the entryway and they also have them in the floral department.I cant hold my breath long enough to get past them.I get a migraine every time I get a wiff..It is so very strong.so I have to be careful to not go near the floral dept...and I can only come in the produce doors till the season is over..I cant be the only one sensitive to this strong smell..why dont they put them out in the garden section where there is more air so they arent poisioning the customers.??? read more

Taylor was friendly and helped me measure a couch (went and got a tape measurer) and then carry it to my small car and helped me try and get it in my car. When it didn't fit, she still had a great attitude and took it out to store for me to pick the next day. Two other colleagues helped her and also had great attitudes - Emily and Christian. I would highly recommend buying furniture here for their great customer service! read more

Sorry Fred Meyer I will never buy from your meat department ever again, the trickery on pricing your meat is all misleading some are priced like it should but the few times I have purchase meat I've been disappointed, from your pork being to salty like it pack that way to have longer shelf life definitely not the seafood and the price I had to pay for hamburger today there's no tag like the other meat products I find out at the check stand I paid 26.00 to make a 5 pd meatloaf with the pack we're all 1pd package with what I thought was the price 3.23 was the only tag on it. After paying for I ask myself what did I buy. I find the 3.23 tag was the expiration date. I will still go for the vegetables and fruit. Believe me I see the butchers back there they watch me cause I hardly ever buy their products, so many other stores to buy from that are so much better. read more

A friend of mine took a look at the seed packets I recently bought there ( buy two get one free) and informed me I could make ore money selling packaged seeds than most people charge for Mary Jane. It' legal too, but since the price already comes stamped on the packets and I don't mind tossing some cold hard cash towards Ed Hume's of Puyallup (four bucks) for some hardy perennials. I had quite the adventure yesterday that entailed three trips to two separate Fred Meyers- however that had nothing to do with any of the stores. In fact they remained polite and helpful until the very end and beyond of operating hours. I'll probably end up coming back before seven days have passed. It's like I'm diabetic and Freddie's is my meds. I didn't even think I liked shopping that much. Apparently I do. read more

Great store to shop for almost anything. The hours are very convenient, you get great discounts on gas and the prices are way better than Safeway and QFC. Wish they had more stores in the area. read more

The best part about Freddy's their employees! The worst part - the filthy parking lot and mispriced items. Always be sure the register is ringing up the price as marked. read more

Reasonably priced groceries with a good selection, and reasonably priced gas. That's the reason I come here, to get both. And plus when you rack it up with a rewards card you get a good deal on gas especially $.10 off. read more

I typically don't review grocery stores, but I was pleasantly surprised with this one. Clean store and very friendly service from both the cashier and managers. Very helpful. They had organic kale for $99/bunch when I was visiting family there. Kale chips all day!! ;) read more
