In Ellensburg, you have limited choices for shopping, unless you want to drive 40+ minutes to Yakima. This is a college town, so Freddy's is a lifesaver for many students. They have clothing and housewares along their full supermarket of groceries. I suppose they owned the 'superstore' moniker before Walmart ever did. Prices are generally reasonable. The outside of the store is well maintained as well. If you are in Ellensburg as a visitor, resident, is student, it's a safe bet this will be your primary grocery shopping destination! read more

Fred Meyer - Department Stores Near Me - Ellensburg, Washington

Their prices are good. They resolved an issue from spring 2025. As 2026 begins the WAR AGANST ORGANIC increases. Products are hidden behind dangling and floor displays or are hard to reach for anybody who isn't tall. Only the big food companies- using an outdated brand label gain managerial approval. Supply of smaller, the real orgainic, is NOT reordered. They LIE "I'ts corporate" Cow Pie it's corporate. Store #652 is anti organic out of managerial preference. Do they have investments in Big Pharma for the so called cure, instead of prevention? read more

Amazon.com delivers quicker and for less oh and at advertised price. Freshman check in was today. Went with son to get a few things. Fred Meyers claimed 15% off for certain things. Picked up some dorm essentials like hangers. Cashier didn't know about deal, brought out another person who showed a flyer about the party and claimed no discount. They tried to force me to just pay full price as people were waiting. Third person (a lead in gardening) actually read the sign and told the other employees to give the discount. 7 minutes later still "looking" for the code and I left. Bought same item next day at less than the advertised cost. read more

Rudest customer service ever. I don't appreciate condescending attitudes. From the customer service in the store aisle to even ruder customer service at self check out I will be changing shopping locations after today. read more

looove this store. i live in cle elum and i hate our store here safeway! so i always make a trip to a half hour away to go to freddy's! the only thing i don't like is on weekends and holidays they NEVER have anything left in the deli. which I can see why because they have such good food everybody wants it, but would be still great if they could make more which they usually don't after a certain time which is understandable. but it is their job to stock up, which they don't have very good stocking on weekends either or holidays, but that's understandable. Still love the store and have great customer service. Will ALWAYS be back to shop at Fred Meyer. Would be so sad if they took it down unless it was a target lol read more

Tired of the big coupon rip off. They make thousands a week off customers who pick up a sale item but never get the discount. The state should have a law against these stores for false advertising. Safeway does it too. read more

Fred Meyer - a diesel pump with a digital display - Department Stores Near Me - Ellensburg, Washington

Fred Meyer is the worst store in town. They card everyone when purchasing alcohol. I am very far past 21 and they carded me when I bought cough syrup. My husband and I went in on a Saturday and there were only 2 check stands open. I when I asked why I was told corporate would only allow them to schedule 4 people. Two were in self check out and 2 were in customer check outs. This is a classic example of putting profits before customer service. At least we have a few other choices in town. I prefer Super One. I know they are a bit more expensive, but their service is much better. And the store has fresher produce and better meats then Fred Meyer. read more

I brought my diamond studs in to have stem replaced .The stud is 18 kt. When I got them back I noticed the one stem that was replaced was not 18 it gold.Not sure what they used but my ear now gets enflamed when I wear the stud that Fred Meyers repaired.So,now I need to spend more $ to have another (more reputable) jewelry store replaced the stem.My mistake thinking Fred Meyers would use the same gold the rest of the year ring was made out of.Really disappointed. read more

This FM had everything we needed on our girls trip to the Gorge. When we realized we were too old to sleep on little sleeping pads and needed simple air mattresses FM was there for us. They also had everything from additional coolers, fresh fruit, snacks, clear stadium bags, and cute clothes! One of the girls was visiting from Nevada and had never experienced a FM before. She was immediately a huge fan after just a few minutes inside. The only weird thing about this location was the lady working at customer service. She was ice cold to me but when she learned our friend was from Nevada she was all of a sudden super nice to my friend and then sort of warmed up to me. It was definitely odd and I'm not sure what that was about. Regardless we will be making future trips on I-90 and will stop at this FM location to get all snacks and necessary items in the future - it is so conveniently located! read more

The good: - Quality of materials is great and staff will often markdown prices if not. Customer service keeps it simple and could use some improvements, as noted below, but overall does a great job. - Staff in most departments are super accommodating, efficient, and willing to help. - Great gas prices if you're a rewards member. - Fairly good deals throughout the store. They definitely try to catch you with "two for $X" deals without the requirement to buy two to receive that price. However, sale prices are usually so cheap you'll barely notice. The not-so good: - Their cashiers and baggers are often under-trained and rushed. I've seen eggs put in the bottom of bags on a few occasions and always by different staff. - The customer service desk staff are constantly on their phones. While I don't normally care for this as long as it's minimal, it's constant. Essentially until you walk up to the desk, they will be on their phones and short with you if your request isn't simple. Overall, they're very great and efficient, so this improvement would just make their service phenomenal. - Products are often mislabeled, making it difficult to determine the price without a price checker (there are two throughout the store, to the best of my knowledge). However, this is a very minor issue, as staff will often adjust the price within certain parameters. - A number of their staff simply do not wear their mask properly. There are a few produce staff who consistently wear their masks below their noses while working directly with raw foods. Staff of various other departments do this as well, but I've only seen produce doing this consistently. - Management/staff do not require that customers wear a mask or seem to care about occupancy regulations. There have been multiple occasions where I entered the store, saw 5+ customers not wearing a mask near the entrance, and left. If you are immuno-compromised or otherwise at-risk, I do not recommend stepping foot in this store. Once the pandemic is over, it'll be a great place to shop! read more

I was shopping as usual with my ES dog when a lady came up to me and told me I couldn't have her with me. Considering i had been shopping there since Dec with my ES Dog i was very offended. She is very important for my well being. I get nervous without her and cant be around a lot of people. So instead of getting the food I needed I hurried up and checked out. Never going back. read more

I realized I have to give this store a five star simply based on how much I go there. They are super progressive. Great natural food section and organics. For the most part it is about as much of a one stop shop as you can get. Everything is there including banking, Redbox, pharmacy, clothing, electronic, and garden. Tons of parking. Now they are even doing a major remodel. As good as this place is I think it is important to also share some business with smaller locals that specialize. Go out of your way to do that. Also. What is it with these people who are so lame they can't get their shopping cart to a corral? Please people. Dont' be so pathetic. We want these businesses to serve us. Honor their efforts by helping them out. Take your shopping cart to the proper place. And don't just stuff it in there. Align it with the other carts so the next person's will go in nicely. If you are walking into the store and see someone finishing an unload ......offer to take their cart into the store for them. You will make someone smile. read more

People are friendly. I find it one of the top three highest priced grocery stores in town. Don't usually do all my shopping here as I find I can get it cheaper at a few of the other stores in town. The selection is okay, and the fact I can by plants while I am grocery shopping could be beneficial. They always have the hard to find item when looking for gifts, but expect to pay a bit more then else. I've never purchased meats here as I always get sticker shock. read more

Update 3/26/16 Dinner Meal deal discontinued :( This is probably the best grocery store in Ellensburg. It's definitely better than Safeway and Super 1 in selection and prices. The only downside being it's not right by the university. Produce and deli are good. I get the $6 dinner w/ 2 sides when I'm in a hurry. I wish they had free range chicken and Mueller's yogurt. I would also like a better brand of green tea than Kroger's and Lipton. More variety of frozen veggies would be good too read more

Wow. This place is filthy. The isles are cluttered, shelves are empty and very dirty. Cashiers are downright rude. I never need to return.

This store has problems. If it wasn't the only one-stop shop place in town, I probably wouldn't be shopping here. A lot of times I'm there it's dirty, smells bad & is not well organized. Produce is usually terrible & their shelves are not well stocked, or they're stocking the shelves during business hours, making huge blockades you can't maneuver your cart around. Stocking shelves should be done when the store is closed. Also, their pharmacy sucks. The last 5-6 times we've gone to pick up a prescription with ample notice, it hasn't been ready. I worked at this particular store and their management is in shambles - so dysfunctional. Unfortunately they get away with a lot of crap because they know they're the only one-stop shop. read more

Full disclosure: I have grown to loath big-box stores and hypermarkets. Every time I go to FM for something specific, I end up wandering for miles thru house plants, liquor, garden equipment, fruit, pet food, wine, towels and so on until I get frustrated enough to seek out help to find what I'm looking for. Great, they have 17 kinds of canned corn but it's a chore to shop for anything. Well done megastores. Ebrg still has some smaller chains like RiteAid, local businesses like Better Life and employee owned options like BiMart; and what's crazy is that most of these options have better pricing if you care to look. I always go somewhere else before braving FM. read more

I like Fred Meyer (Kroger) they are usually well-stocked have almost everything I need on a grocery expedition except for on a few occasions. This location however had some of the most unhelpful management I have encountered at a Freddy's. They couldn't care less that they weren't able to help and weren't eager to find a solution. When I reminded them of their power to make it right they simply shrugged. Now for the store itself, it was one of the newer remodels looked great and was clean, and well-stocked on my most recent visit. read more

I honestly don't understand the horrible reviews this Fred Meyer's has received. They've got all you need and really all you could want available. Fresh fruit, ingredients in bulk, a deli, bakery, a Fred Meyer Jeweler's, electronic section, grocery, home goods, clothing and home & garden. My husband actually purchased my wedding ring from Fred Meyer Jeweler's at a great price and a life time warranty. The ladies in jewelery have always taken care of us. As for the grocery portion of the store, there is a lot of variety, however, you may find better deal at Super 1 (http://www.yelp.com/biz/super-1-foods-ellensburg) or Safeway (http://www.yelp.com/biz/safeway-stores-ellensburg). Just do your homework and find the sales. Overall, Fred Meyer is a great contribution to the Ellensburg community. TIP: If you haven't already, sign up for the Fred Meyer rewards card; you can score 10 cents off at select gas stations. read more

Ellensburg Fred Meyer, now charging its customers for bags. I drive 30 miles to this store, make a substantial purchase every week and now will be charged a bag fee to put my purchases in. Seriously? What happened to keeping your customer first? Guess not. I will be shopping elsewhere. Your rewards program will be missed but I will not be forced to purchase a bag to put an item I already paid for in. read more

My little brother goes to CWU and he informed this is about as good as it gets around Ellensburg. We stopped by here to pick some stuff up for his new house. Although they are a bit behind in times (what Fred Meyer isn't?) they still carried the basics. He found some decent sheets, waste basket, soap, all that kind of stuff. I did notice that the Halloween section was pretty sad. Also, they sell Twlight hair straighteners! So weird. I never saw the movie so maybe I just don't get it? read more

Your basic Fred Meyers. Clean, wide variety of items, lots of parking and good hours. The staff was friendly, produce items look good and they had a good amount of clearance items (which is perfect for a college town). Service from cashier Kaitlyn was great. Nothing amazing here, just a great Fred Meyers in Ellensburg. read more

Nifty FM store. Nice selection of liquor, and good prices (before that pesky new WA liquor tax thing). Needed some winter boots and they had a pretty good selection of nice boots, moderate to expensive but nothing cheap. So I ended up with really nice winter boots that I will maybe wear twice this year before putting them in storage and completely forgetting about. Eh. Nothing remarkable about the service. read more

Typical Fred Meyer, pretty new. The gas station is a couple blocks down, The gas station will accommodate RV's ok. Now, this Fred Meyer is pretty busy. I was there on a Wednesday afternoon and parking lot was FULL! If the parking lot is not busy, can get an RV in here, but, be careful of some "humps" you might have to drive over. Might scrape bottom. Just don't even try it with an RV, although I love Fred Meyer. I came here in a rental car. read more

So, it may seem strange to write a review on a grocery store. BUT. This one started offering free fruit for kids while you are shopping. As a mom of 2 with one on the way, it's SO appreciated! Not only does it help my kids get in an extra serving of fruits, but it keeps them from asking for everything we walk past. Kudos, FM! read more

One stop shopping here in the Burg! I appreciate being able to go to one store and find most all things.

Per the internet, it said to check your receipt because there's always mistakes. Came home from Fred Meyer yesterday and checked the receipt. Found that they charged for 4 packages of underwear and gave a credit for 1 package. We only had 2 packages!!!!! read more

Disclaimer: We like Fred Meyer (Ellensburg) and do all of our grocery shopping there, in addition to some clothing and electronics. We go to FM at least twice per week. The problem: FM has a fairly serious problem with overcharging customers. That is, the price you see marked is, with rather alarming frequency, less than the price you will actually be charged at check out. It is understandable that once in a while this might hapen. BUT, my wife was overcharged at least EIGHT times (that is, during eight separate shopping trips) during July-August 2012. In that same time she was undercharged ONE TIME. It is curious how the incorrect pricing falls nearly always in the favor of FM! Check your receipt carefully! UPDATED 12 / 31 / 2012: Mt wife and I shopped this morning. We bought about twelve items and were overcharged for two of them!! Very irritating! UPDATED: 2/3/2013 I bought about six items this morning. Of the first three that I ran through the self-checkout, two rang up at a price in excess of the price displayed. The cashier promptly corrected the error. read more

What I noticed the most was the layout of this Fred Meyer's, is EXACTLY the same as the one in Thrasher's Corner! It flipped my mind! I kept feeling sooo much de ja vu, cause it is exactly the same!! Thankfully that also means the restrooms were in the same place, so when I stopped for a potty break in Ellensburg, whilst on my way to the Gorge-Jack Johnson. However as I was parking at 9am in the morning, I happened to double check my ticket and the gates weren't opening until 5pm!! So I literally hung out at this Fred Meyer's for about 4 hours total!! I walked up and down every single aisle, all clean and tidy. And read quite a few magazines - Men's Health had a stellar review of Tim Tebow - Sophomore Heisman winner 07!! I kind of felt like Natalie Portman in Where the Heart is, cause I would say that I lived at this Fred Meyer's for a few hours! It was very nice! They also had a great sale on grapes and licorce! read more

I Had A Horrible Feeling About Fred Meyer Coming To Ellensburg The Staff Is Refusing To Work They're Promoting Bad Attitudes Don't Go There Worst Customer Service Ever Everyone Is A Major Embarressment to the Company I found the Corporate Office Address If They're Not Calling Me Back That's Okay I Am Writing Letters To Their Staff People Should Go Forward I Am Never Going Shopping At Fred Meyer Again Because Whoever Had A Good Idea About Remodeling Last Year Was Not Doing A Perfect Job Customers Can't Find Anything Their Staff Leaves The Carts Sitting Outside Where Somebody Is Taking Those I Am Thinking About Giving Carts To The Goodwill Store I Am Not Saying Anything Else After This WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER STARBUCKS NEEDS TO GO AWAY FROM THIS GROCERY STORE PLEASE read more

This store is a nicer remodeled Fred Meyer and they have a friendly staff, but they can do better at actually restocking items.

Please see my other review under the name Winter F. I (and the rest of the public!) continue to be overcharged at Fred Meyer. It is basically something that happens EVERY time my wife and I visit the store, unfortunately. I really want to like this store, but the chronic overcharging is forcing me to shop elsewhere. On 8/19/2013 occurred my latest overcharge. I purchased a 12-pack of New Belgium ale, on sale for $12.99. I was charged $14.99. As I realized this walking out the door, I headed back to customer service only to face the prospect of waiting 15 minutes in line to receive the $2 the store owed me. Naturally, I was not going to use that much time to get back my $2. Fred Meyer wins again! read more
