Will only recommend when they quit profiling shoppers and when Kroger (parent company of FM) quits using Certegy for their check system. My son is a regular shopper there. He was profiled for zero reason. He had the receipt in hand and has never shoplifted from this store. Apparently, the security person they had would do this to many people just because he thought he could. Not sure if he is there anymore. I have written checks to FM with no problem. Now, I can't since Certegy considers me (as well as my husband) "risks". Why? We both are in our 60's, have never had dishonored or bounced checks, semi retired but still working. Is it because we don't write many checks? Certegy uses AI technology. From what I have been reading, there are thousands of individuals like me who have had the same problems with this scam company, various businesses, and the banks don't understand why. The company doesn't even give valid reasons. My credit score also above 650, so that's not the problem. Kroger/FM would be doing every shopper a big favor by dropping Certegy and using another system. It is very embarrassing to have your check declined for zero reason whatsoever. read more

This is my go to Fred Meyers in Covington. The veggies and fruits always are fresh! I'm here so often for my groceries and all the clerks that have helped me are knowledgeable. This place seems to be getting more busy that the Kent locations has closed down. read more

had an accident in the parking lot. I do not remember the name of the 2 employees that were so AWESOME to me and also asked if my dog needed anything. I do know one name tag said Store manager. I just want them to know how much I appreciate their KINDNESS !! It is so rare these days read more

You all are eliminating positions. Rather than allowing those who are losing their jobs the chance to transfer internally, you are hiring from the outside. You also profile shoppers. My son has been to your store many times with no problems. Then, he gets profiled and asked to show his receipt several times before he even gets to the exit. I was told that he "looked suspicious". WTH??? Needless to say, I will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

They closed at 10 PM and didn't let me check out at 10:05 even though I was already inside. I understand store hours, but it was frustrating not being able to finish paying. read more

Staff is nice, clean and organized. Never had a problem here other then the att rep they are pushy and last thing I want is them bothering me when shopping. read more

I rarely leave reviews but I have to mention Mike in the home department. These days you would never expect good service but Mike was unbelievable. Mike went out of his way to find my wife a dresser she really wants at the sale price. Mike you truly made our day and week Please give Mike in Home a raise !! read more

At the start of the interaction I gave them my insurance card. They had me fill out the paperwork for my flu shot, and made me wait. After all of that they told me they don't take my insurance. Why waste my time and theirs by making me fill out the paperwork instead of telling me when they saw my insurance card that they don't take my insurance? Inconsiderate. read more

Somewhat recently remodeled...which means I can't find anything. Like many other Freddy's, they've decided to put their alcohol into its own area with a register just for alcohol purchases...while still having things tucked behind cases. If you want beer you can take that up to the regular register with your grocery. The other stuff? I don't buy it here anymore unless it's on a really good sale (which actually happens!) Fred Meyer has all the things that you'd expect to find at a grocery store. Interestingly enough I can find things at Auburn that I can't find at other Freddy's, but this store doesn't appear to have anything special that I can't get else where. Overall it gets the job done nicely and the prices are pretty on par with the rest of the grocery stores. I like the fact that they're starting to use doors for the cold sections. It's Earth friendly and I'm basically a lizard, so I enjoy not freezing as badly! read more

Helped installing the app. Also they helped me find toddler clothes that I needed for my granddaughter they were a great help. I would recommend the workers to anybody. read more

It was a good shopping experience at this location. The service was good. They didn't stock the item that I came for. Go back to the option of clipping coupons. Not everybody has the option for digital. You still have to print out the ads anyway. read more

Fred Meyer - Energy Beverages - Department Stores Near Me - Covington, Washington

Fred Meyers is one of my favorite stores. They sell everything you can think of. Groceries, bakery, healthy/ gluten-free grocery items, clothes, jewelry, furniture, house hold items and lots more. I love their lemon bars they are my favorite, I also enjoy ordering special cakes and cupcakes. There's lots of beautiful flowers and plants as well. I was so excited when I saw the new Mochi cooler, pretty neat. I love that you can get any kind you'd like. Always a clean and organized store. read more

Don't ever buy anything at Fred Meyer. They are a bunch of scams! Purchased some candles online and they were on sale. The receipt shows the correct amount but they charged the full price. When we asked them about it, their customer service said that they charge on the price when the items are pick up. They won't refund the difference. read more

Terrible place to shop. Rude employees and the store has limited options. The produce is just as disgusting.

Normal grocery store, lots of produce choices, good signs for the aisles. Self-checkout is fast, okay prices, good sales for weekly ad items. read more

Clean store. Floor is rough and cracked. There's a decent selection of produce but a lot of empty shelves. The self checkout helper took 15 minutes to come remove the security tag from the reusable bag so I could finish checking out. read more

Fred Meyer - Produce - Department Stores Near Me - Covington, Washington

Such a horrific place to shop. Druggies hanging out outside the entry doors trying to get shoppers to buy stolen purchase they JUST pilfered from the same store, parking lot is filled with wayward shopping carts, garbage, and transients harassing people, produce is in horrible condition and many items are half rotted most of the time; like inflation isn't bad enough, but now you want us to buy poor quality items on top of it? When I've tried to have these conversations w/management, they could care less (at least the ones I could track down....that speak some semblance of English). What a shameful horrific place this has turned into. read more

Prices are fair in today's market. But many times their items don't ring up correctly. Then you have to stand in line at the customer service, where one clerk has a line of about 10 people at any given time. Having to wait for 20-30 minutes because of an error of theirs is frustrating. This happens quite often. Needs to be fixed. read more

Today I came in for a cake, at 6 pm Monday July 1st. They didn't have any that said happy birthday so I flagged someone down to see if they could have the baker quickly write happy birthday on the blank cake. The employee came back & said the bakery employee said "I'm on break it's going to be 25 mins" which I understand you're on break but I wasn't going to wait almost half an hour for the baker to write a quick happy birthday on the cake. read more

I just watched a lady working here, her name was Patty I think, severely talk down to an elderly Filipino man and his child. she very rudely said "I took it off!" when he asked about a part of his purchase. She then proceeded to talk shit about him with a coworker literally right in front of him. read more

Bought 2 crabs for Christmas and turned out they were bad. Called the store to see if I could return without a receipt, got thrown away...and customer service said no problem as long as I had UPC sticker....great so I went back to store and was told no way can I get my money back without a receipt... It was $58.00 a d I would have been happy with a store credit.. Nope...nothing...this is such bad customer service and I will NEVER go to this store again...its an example why Walmart,Safeway,and other major chains are better than this...Fred Meyer shame on you for screwing your customers. read more

I love Fred Meyer! One stop shopping trip! They have so many departments that it's so hard not to check them out. I usually stop at this location after Costco when I rather not buy a specific item in bulk haha. Only downfall is that it might be a little too big... don't get me wrong it's nice but when you wanna find something quick it might be all the way on the other side. Everything is pretty spread out & you could be walking forever so I suggest asking an employee if your looking for something before you walk the whole store. Definitely one of the nicest Fred Meyers I've ever been to! If you have time to kill & need groceries, clothing, kitchenware etc. this is the place for you! read more

Fred Meyer - Pokémon cards - Department Stores Near Me - Covington, Washington

Horrible service and blatant lying in my face. when I ordered in Fred Mayer app, the person that took out my groceries was not kind nor nice in helps with resolving the issue they themselves created. they brought fewer items for which I payed and they just told to deal with the issue on phone with customer service. when I came up to them to try and resolve the issue with the manager, she just closed the door in my face with the words "we already spent enough time talking about this issue". read more

We have decided that this is our last trip to Fred Mayer. It's a big store with lots of departments; but, try to find (grocery items) that you're looking for - they're not there. After three trips over two months we've come away with our shopping baskets half-full. We have to go to Winco or others stores to find what we're shopping for anyway, so why go to Fred's in the first place? read more

This is our go to place, especially for groceries. The best prices, the options and the quality are above and beyond. The recent remodel has elevated this location above the other local stores in the area. Parking is abundent, location and access is super easy. read more

I like this Branch but I had a really bad experience with one of the employee yesterday. Now when I started reading the comments section, it looks like that this store definitely needs a lot of improvements in customer service department. It's just sad that a quick grocery trip ruined our lunch. I will definitely think twice before going there again. read more

This review is in regards to the meat department people. It's highly unprofessional to close early. I was there at 6:20pm to get bacon for my weekend after my long shift at work. The lady proceeds to help some people in front of me get shrimp, but then tells me they're her last customer even though I can't think of any place that closes at 6:20pm. Also how hard is it to just help a customer real quick?? I work retail and I help people past close all the time because that's just basic customer service. Next time I'll stop by Safeway or drive the extra 15 minutes to the Fred Meyer deli in Auburn because at least those people are nice and competent at their job. read more

Terrible place to buy anything not grocery. Couches, vacuum, anything larger. They never know if it's in stock so you have to sit and wait for them to physically look for it. They get mad and upset with you for buying something they have to go look for. Just spent 20 mins waiting just for them to tell me they don't have the item I wanted. read more

The workers are some what rude especially (rose) she was rude to my whole family but only apologise to one of my family members she was really rude to me and didn't explain to me what I had to do with my gift card I was trying to buy. And they produce is not really fresh the tomatoes are mouldy and old. read more

I shop here every now and then and love that I can find the ingredients that I need. It is hard living on the West Coast where there is very few Puerto Ricans and trying to find certain ingredients. I like the fact that I can find the ingredients I need and at a decent price. I like the cheese selections and seafood selections that they have. Stores usually clean when I'm there and always crowded. I am incredibly glad that they have self check out because it gets really packed in there. I think they are a little expensive for some of stuff they have, but they do have a little better quality than most places. I love the array of vegetables that they have. I love how they have many choices for different things; cheeses, alcohol, seafood, and meat. Four stars because they are way too expensive. read more

Fred Meyer - Coconut water. - Department Stores Near Me - Covington, Washington

This review is for Taera (I hope I spelled it correctly, the person had a unique spelling to it) This nice person was working the side entrance by the nursery exit. She was very kind and helpful and she made my day so I wanted FM to know. Thanks Taera!!! read more

This review is in regards to the Electronics department. Please hire someone that will help customers. I was looking at printers and was the only one in the store section. The clerk never asked me if I need help and never came from behind the counter. She stayed chatting with some person (I'll assume a friend) that was outside the section area. read more

Whoever the store manager is, please train your people to help customers when they are in need. Standing around talking to another employee is not customer service. I asked 2 people where something was and all they said was I don't know. good thing Safeway is a across the street. I am sure they will appreciate my money!!! read more

F.M. is okay I mean I definitely prefer going there over Covington Safeway. But whats up with one of the employee's standing inside the doorway and his 1000 yard stare like he is a zombie? Gave me the creeps. He didn't say anything but stood there literally lifeless! read more

Fred's is like the HEB (Howard E Butts grocery chain in TX) but on steroids. We were sent on a critical resupply mission on Wed evening. The parking lot looks jammed!! Oh boy this will be fun/not. Surprise all clear,,, We quickly hit up the baking and candy aisles and most importantly the beer and wine.. Total cost $85. Liquor to food ratio 70%-30%. C'mon turkey/football day... read more

It is my plan to stop all of my major shopping at Fred Meyer. Gone is the enjoyment of shopping at Fred Meyer; which it used to be a very enjoyable trip. I used to be able to go into a Fred Meyer store, head to the produce, quickly get what I wanted, go to organics, quickly get what I wanted, head over to a few key areas that were close together and be done in a short time - even for a good sized haul of groceries. Now the store has become spread so far apart; that going to the store even for a few items means traversing across most of the store and if you forget something from an aisle you already passed, it is time consuming to head all the way back. The location of oranges vs shampoo vs kombucha etc. -- it's very time consuming. What about our Senior Citizens who have shopped with you for so many years; many may have issues with walking; many people on chemo who would enjoy their short time shopping in the store - will likely stop shopping at Fred Meyer altogether. Many senior citizens don't use your apps because it requires too much for them. Even for people such as myself, and a younger worker at Fred Meyer; we find that when we get to the store - your ap has reset and in order to log back in we need the password - but tha's at home. WE don't log in often enough to remember it and it isn't saved on your app for some reason. This American problem, yes; what great access to so many products; but it would be good for you to know, Fred Meyer; where you will likely be losing customers. It's the seniors; it's the busy mom's who don't have time for the trip in your store. We'll choose Safeway. Also, have stopped shopping the Fred Meyer clothing altogether due to the change to the DIP clothing line, hard to find something nice. Now we go to Kohls. So for our major shopping, we'll enjoy Trader Joes, Safeway, PCC, and even go to some others such as Grocery Outlet and even purposely go to Winco and H-Mart... Missing the old Fred Meyer that used to be Senior-Citizen friendly, and quick-shopper friendly.neeed your store today. Went in for a relatively small load; should have taken me 20 minutes... Your remodel means that a lot of customer time is spent walking while in the grocery store... From oranges to shampoo. From shampoo to kombucha... And if you didn't remember the bread you head way back over to the bread - and what if you get decide that you want meat... over to the meat... SHopping at Fred Meyer is no longer a quick trip due to the layout of the store... Used to be able to head in and grab a whole bunch of healthy items in one area - head over to a not far away few other things and get out. Now it is a trek and customers will need to make organized lists so as not to have to trek back and forth, back and forth though the store wasting time. Not only this, but to get things on a good sale you'll probably have to load it on the ap; but if you don't load it to the ap before you get to the store you can expect that there's an update, and you don't remember the password. Too bad for all those seniors who used to enjoy using coupons at your store. Too bad for those who can still walk but have ailments and it is no longer a well thought out quick trip inside your store. Poor layout. IT was a bad idea to change your groupings. One diabetic at your store today was so upset, she could find the creamer she wanted with sugar... Couldn't find the sugar free. The sugar free of the same brand same flavor was placed in a totally different place (and they're done with the reshuffling...) Fred Meyer is no longer my #1 goto store for shopping. I will do my best to avoid Fred Meyer. Goodbye Fred Meyer read more

I love our local Fred Meyer store in Covington! It's all one-stop shopping here as they have most of what we need. The store is clean and the employees are all friendly. Lately we have had our groceries delivered to our home and each delivery has been a pleasant experience. I get a text when the shopping has started! And I get text updates when items are not available and being replaced. Our shopper takes pictures and send what are available and I guess if time permits that I respond quickly, they'll replace it with what I want. If an item is not available, they will tell you and refund it. Once shopping is complete, I get a text again that they are on their way. And again when delivery is complete. We've been getting Israel as our "shopper" and he is amazing! You pay when you order online and you add tip. The delivery fee is about $10.00. We;ve been happy with our delivery experience so you get a chance to add additional tip if you want. Appreciate that this shopping option is available especially during these times. Wishing everyone especially our local Fred Meyer store safety and good health. Thanks for all you do for the community!!! read more

Fred Meyer - Department Stores Near Me - Covington, Washington

.doesn't recommend Fred Meyer. Aug 13, 2019, 1:30 PM ....... BE AWARE!!!!!! I decided to try their delivery service at the Fred Meyer in Covington and was completely in shocked to find out that Fred Meyers uses a 3rd party not only to deliver the food but to also SHOP for your food. I have used the pick up service multiple times, but decided to try the delivery. I ended up getting food delivered in the most unprofessional way, not to mention rotten produce. When I reached out to Fred Meyers to let them know, I was disappointed in the Fred Meyers employee whom picked out my food sending photos of the food and this is how they responded... Dear Elizabeth, Thank you for contacting Kroger Customer Connect. I was sorry to read about your disappointing experience with the quality of produce selected using the Instacart services from your local Fred Meyer. I am sorry to read the cucumber, pineapple, bell peppers, and the corn was not satisfactory. Instacart is a third party service we partner with. The Instacart representative would actually select the product. I would recommend reaching out to Instacart at 1-888-246-7822. They would be able to further assist you. Our company prides itself on offering fresh, exceptional products; we value your input and thank you for bringing this to our attention.

We appreciate hearing from our valued customers and will assist in any way possible. Thank you for shopping with us and have a great day. Hmmmmm.... so did I just read that correctly, the delivery person.... the driver is actually going into your store Fred Meyers and picking out my FOOD from YOUR STORE?? Yep, I am pretty sure that is what she said in the email!!! SO EVERYONE BE AWARE THAT THE DELIVERY PERSON, WHOM WORKS WITH...... this 3rd party and shows NO REPRESENTATION of such will be handling your food and showing up to your door!!!!! I did not understand that a 3rd party whom I didn't know, would be selecting my food I ordered through Fred Meyers!!!! In fact, the gentlemen whom showed up to my house was being driven by a woman, as she didn't even get out of the car to help unload the groceries actually .... just stared at me and my son when we came out to help the delivery guy unload the car, then when one of the bags broke having groceries fall to the ground, she still didn't get out of the car to help the guy she was driving around! The car was beat up, dirty, my groceries where placed in the back seat in and around a child car seat and on the floor board! I would have NEVER ordered my FOOD from someone SO UNPROFESSIONAL! I stress NEVER!! And yet, this shows up to my door step representing Fred Meyers??? Mind-Blown!!! I will not lesson my standards for convenience!! My assumption is you will not either. BEWARE of their home delivery service!!! read more
