the main supermarket in town, it offers a surprisingly good selection of fresh produce, quality…read moremeats from the butcher counter, deli items, bakery goods, and all the everyday essentials you need. The store is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate, even when it's busy. I especially appreciate the Starbucks cafe inside for a quick coffee or treat while shopping, and the attached fuel station is convenient for topping off the tank with competitive prices and rewards points.
The staff here stands out--they're genuinely friendly, helpful, and quick to assist, whether it's finding an item, helping with heavy bags, or answering questions in the pharmacy. In a smaller town like Newport, that personal touch makes a big difference. Services like DriveUp & Go curbside pickup and grocery delivery are lifesavers on busy days or during bad weather, and the pharmacy is efficient for prescriptions and vaccinations.
Prices are typical for a chain grocery store, but the weekly ads, digital coupons through the Safeway app, and loyalty rewards (especially on gas) help keep things affordable. It's not a fancy upscale market, but for fresh food, convenience, and friendly service in Pend Oreille County, this location delivers consistently.
