Came to both grocery store and Q20. Q20 is great for cheap beers and wine. This grocery store has kosher stuff which is nice for folks who want it. read more

The small, crowded parking lot makes getting in and out of here a total cluster cluck. Even The Waffle House disaster scale wouldn't be able to do this place justice. But in the inside they do have pretty much everything you need, if you don't mind the crowds and limited check out options. read more

When attending the University of Washington and living in the on-campus dorms for Spring 2011 and Autumn 2011 quarters, this QFC in University Village was my most frequented place to pick up groceries off-campus at a good price. It was a walkable distance and had a variety of offerings. Self check-out was consistently fast even when busy and workers were professional. One of my highlights from the 2011 time period was picking out pumpkins and carving them with my roommate. They even had white pumpkins, which as someone who had grown up carving orange pumpkins I decided to go with to try something new. I carved it with a cat pattern, and found it did not last as long as the carved orange pumpkin(s), but it was still fun to try something new. read more

We love the QFC liquor store -- the curated section is fantastic, and the main reason we go there. We have noticed that as of late it has been slipping, with less variety and interest, and we hope this is not the new business model. They do such a good job there - please don't change anything. read more

The sushi here is always very fresh and perfect! Also the sushi chef is very knowledgeable and helpful. This location is one of my favorite. And much much better than the capital hill location on broadway harvard market. read more

This QFC didn't leave a great impression. The store felt a bit gloomy. Seeing fruit flies hovering around the stone fruit section definitely didn't help--I passed on buying any. On the bright side, the hummus we picked up tasted good. read more

I wish I would have taken more photos, this place was a really neat place to go shopping! The layout of the store was inviting. It was clean & stocked. We ended up getting wine, cheese, salami & crackers. I appreciated the boxes designated for the $5 or less cheese it allowed us to try cheeses we've never tried before. There was quite a line of people at the deli to get their meat sliced, so we had found pre-sliced salami that was already sliced from the service deli earlier but prepackaged... that was a great idea. Don't get me started about the wine selection it was set up nicely, had all sorts of selections of different varietals. We ended up getting 6 bottles so we could get the additional 10% off. I was impressed with the amount of ports available. The prices on the wine are extremely reasonable and for the bottles that we did pick up We're all at least 4 out of 5. The 2019 Garnacha from Godina was 5/5 and an AMAZING wine. read more

The QFC bar is incredibly clutch. The prices can't be beat at all. You get a 20 oz beer for around $4 regularly, then they have a happy hour specials that are even better. Two TV screens worth of choices. A very economical option to enjoy some beer while catching a game on TV. Prefer this over some of the often over priced restaurants and bars nearby. The bartenders are always friendly and knowledgeable. There is a tip jar but generally the receipts leave no place for tipping. Menus on the table are available to order food from the Tutta Bella's in the store. They'll deliver your order right to you as well. We go here regularly because it's such a nice little oddity to enjoy in Seattle. Supermarket bars are in! read more

I definitely prefer shopping here over Safeway ("Sketchway") on The Ave. I find that the produce and meat here is fresher and that the overall store is cleaner and better stocked and organized. It also has a greater varieties of products compared to Safeway. The workers here tend to be friendly and helpful. I usually use self-checkout, but most of my experiences going through the assisted checkout line have been positive. I can usually find a parking spot in the garage towards the back, but Sunday afternoons and evenings are definitely the busiest time to shop here. QFC recently got new cold cases for dairy products. I don't know if that is exciting or not, but it shows that they care about keeping their products fresh and providing a positive shopping experience for customers. read more

QFC - Stocking up for the week - Grocery Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Typical QFC. There's generally a good selection of groceries and the staff is competent. The price is a little higher here than a Fred Meyer or even Safeway. But it's not that much higher and the quality is as good or a little better than Safeway. read more

Justin, the manager of the University Village QFC cheese department, was very helpful today. I was looking for a lemon Wensleydale cheese, which was not available at his store. Justin explained that it was a seasonal cheese and then called other QFC stores to see where the cheese was available. He found it at Northgate, and I drove to pick up some of the last wedges. I appreciated Justin's help. read more

A lovely, clean and vast store with most anything one would need while grocery shopping. An Ellenos yogurt bar in house makes for a wonderful treat, rain or shine, frigid or arid. (And samples to boot!) A small basket available near the fresh produce for free fruit for children, too. Employees are often preoccupied, don't see you if you need assistance, even when standing right next to them, politely saying, "excuse me?" (Crickets) But, if you know where you're going, what you need and where to find it, not needing to confer with anyone, you should find your shopping experience pleasant. read more

Unlike a couple of other reviewers, I love that they have good security at this store. Reality is, we are either paying for security in our food prices or we are covering the cost of stolen products. I personally have seen security stop two theft attempts at this store. The store has excellent produce including a substantial organic section. Good selection of products. Staff is nice and seems to enjoy working there. read more

Last Wednesday, I went to grab a couple items California sushi and BBQ ribs. I opened the sushi and I was disappointed with the irregular pieces. They were regular slices and then very small pieces hidden under the wrappings. Also the inconsistency with rice, the rice wasn't evenly distributed. Then the BBQ ribs, it was tough and the meat tasted old and freezer burnt. After eat a couple pieces, a couple hours later I had an upset stomach and fell nauseated. This week the outbreak of deli meats of listeria. I may not be buying those items from QFC. I always thought of QFC having quality food but not at the QFC at the University Village. I have to give one star because the site would not let me submit. read more

The older gentleman working at the Qfc liquor store wasn't the easiest person to work with. Horrible customer service.

I've been buying their shrimp in a tray for $5, which wasn't a bad price. But now "shrinkage" is so extreme that I won't buy it anymore.

Security guards are so bot they denied my friends real, valid id because he suspected it was fake and wasn't from Washington. (She's literally from Ohio...) lost loyal customers today. read more

Aaah a market that I wish was near where I live. They have an abundance of items to choose from and even organic, vegan and the regular brand of groceries. But what impresses me is the hot items and salad bar available to people on the go or just don't have the time to prepare a meal. And surprisingly it was open 24/7 and was one of the few stores available on Thanksgiving Day. Did you know they even had a Starbucks in the store for your convenience. They also featured local products and I love that because you get the taste of what Washington has to offer. And the price is right too along with the no food tax for you food items. You can't beat that! When ever you are in town stop by if you need anything for the hotel you will not be disappointed. read more

Barely a-okay these days, QFC is run by Krogers and food quality has slid down, down. down. I love a good deal, but the last several produce and perishable related supposed deals have been a disaster. Yesterday, raspberries were on special and I assumed that was due to a near record bumper season of the stuff, but once again, QFC did a "gotcha" because last nights purchase of raspberries were soggy and non edible at 8 am the next morning after just hours in the fridge. My good deal turned into an item for the trash bin. This keeps happening to me at the QFC, over and over. I guess I need to be hit over the head. Well, ta-da. I get it now. First there was the purchase of Sabra hummus that was on Manager's Special and turned out it was one day from expiring. Then, there were the apples on special during apple season that were mealy and tasteless. Then the strawberries on 2 for one I had to throw out due to tanginess & fur hidden in the package. Oh, and the Crest vibrating toothbrush for my kid on "special" that inexplicably didn't work at all right out of the box due to expired batteries. I know, I know I can take this stuff back. And I should. But I'm a busy mom and it often is just one item, so that item just gets tossed, venting occurs, and I make the pledge that this place is a last resort. But its convenient, and so I return, and then it happens again, and hey, its just one item a shopping, so we have to at least give them one for consistency. But seriously, I want to trust the local spot I shop at. if I'm a regular. I have to believe they are at least trying to do the right thing. With this many missteps around perishable items on "special" the only conclusion I can draw is Kroger/QFC is trying to move old merchandise and make a buck on items they should be pulling from the shelves. Poor business practices in my opinion. read more

I just had to write a review today. I was looking for a super obscure golden curry mix to make some Japanese curry and couldn't find it. Steve, a super sweet dude was stocking a shelf nearby and literally just went out of his way to ask if I needed help finding something. He proceeded to crack the code with me and we finally found it in an unexpected spot. Sometimes I feel like a burden to people working hard stocking shelves. This guy sincerely cared and asked me if I needed help. Really appreciate people like that in this world. Without him I would have given up , and my roommates would have been sad lol. Here's to you Steve! You rock read more

QFC - Golden Curry mix - Grocery Near Me - Seattle, Washington

QFC is QFC... but I really appreciate this location. Whenever I make the trafficy-trek to UV to shop the mall, I love that I can stop in here for some supplies on the way home. I always park in the lot anyways that way I always remember where I left my car. So it just makes sense to stop there. I also like that they have an olive bar here with lots of options for charcuterie board crafting. The last time I stopped in it looked as if they were in the middle of some remodeling in the pre-made food/deli section. But it didn't really impact my shopping experience, which was nice. A side note: it was nice to be able to find well marked restrooms that you didn't need a code to access. read more

Sob very sorry wonderful market , yes CB need more , just v like Cali needs Fred Meyers, kekrkrkr. Nah it's a great place v if you love writing" real " in front of all your unique food posts. As opposed to most of our other markets with , you know all the' fake " stuff. And around the corner from my house they have" real Mexican food being pumped out right next to that oh sho legit sushi , or maybe should have posted "real" in front of the words"roll" like omg so to for. But yes would be nice tho have a few in SD. Just tear down a, let's say family owned business in La Jolla or even better Guest has lots of room. So then we can have some real food. Go to sprouts or Trader Joe's, just As real minus the cheap sushi. Man sometimes I forget how much better I am than everyone else. read more

This location is definitely one of my preferred grocery stores. They have everything that you would expect to find at a standard grocery store with the added benefit of a lot of prepared foods, great for busy college students on the go, parties, or just a lazy day. The self checkout lanes really aren't arranged the best so things can get a bit crazy while you're in there, but overall this location is a really solid grocery store. read more

This QFC is one of the best grocery stores in the area. It has a large selection of items and features a big deli and seafood area. The quality of the produce is normally pretty good. I'm glad I can drive because the extra time to go to QFC is worth it. The inside is kept pretty clean and the staff are friendly. A couple things to keep in mind are that QFC tends to be a bit more expensive and it used to be open for long hours but they shortened them a while back. read more

I came here every week to grab food before going to the gym. I was just asked to leave my gym bag at the door by the security. Hey, if you have no trust to your customers, then fuck off.

The University Village QFC is one of the better locations as far as selection goes. I rarely come here anymore since I don't use 520, so it is a bit of a burden to drive on I-90 through downtown Seattle to get here. I was shopping one day at U-Village a few months back and decided to stop into the store for some groceries. I was actually looking for parking elsewhere in the mall, but wasn't finding any so I parked at the QFC lot instead. U-Village shoppers can park here though there is a 90 minute limit. The store looks pretty much the same since the last time I shopped here many years ago. And that is not necessarily a good thing. I think the store could some refurbishing as it looks a bit dimly lit. It is not as bright and shiny as the downtown Bellevue QFC that is comparable to this store. I thought the layout is a little strange since the produce section is sort of towards the middle of the store. I do want to acknowledge that this isn't an ordinary QFC. There is an Einstein Bros. Bagels in-store and this QFC is known for their selection of Jewish/Kosher food products. I even noticed that they offer Kosher sushi here. This is probably the best place to find Kosher items now that the Albertsons on Mercer Island has closed down. As for checking out here, I thought they had a sufficient number of self-checkout machines. Make sure to bring your bags when shopping here, otherwise you will need to pay for a paper bag. I did like that they were offering small paper bags for free to customers. These bags are good for packing your meat items to avoid cross contamination with your other goods. While I do like the selection here, I think this QFC could use a bit of a spruce. The QFC parking time limit is also a bit a short. If you couldn't find space elsewhere at U-Village and decided to park here, it leaves you with a dilemma on time. If you wanted to have a meal, it pretty much makes it impossible to eat and shop at this QFC. You would basically have to choose. Likely having to opt to go to a different QFC or grocery store altogether. read more

Their security looks paramilitary. The only thing I've seen them do is stare at women and have their hands in their vest. Incredibly uncomfortable. Doesn't feel any safer, it doesn't feel like a grocery store anymore. read more

This is my favorite QFC in Seattle, and though it's not the closest to my house, I usually shop at this location. Pros: -large, convenient parking lot -great selection of items in every department, especially meat, frozen, and produce -reasonable prices and good sales -store is clean and beautiful, making for a pleasant shopping experience -next to other great shopping (UVillage) Cons: -Gets very crowded at peak times, making shopping here a nightmare. That's not the store's fault, but something to be aware of read more

Five stars because it's a grocery store. What could go wrong? lol. I do love the kosher cold case section back by the hot chicken deli area. The kosher coleslaw and potato salads are to die for! Prices are what they are, no surprises. Got a nice little container of real salmon dip for $4 and a big bag of dip-chips for a buck and a quarter. read more

I have been a costumer of this store for many year and never been so disappointed b4. There kosher section is no fun any more not much to choose from. Meat section always almost empty. Roasted chicken never ready till almost 12noon or 12:30pm And when you ask for certain meat they say the order didn't show up );; really? Every week didn't?? I even tried to call few weeks ahead of time still don't get what I need. Went there today asking for a lamb( no lamb) Went there asking for a veal( no veal) Called and asked to order baby chicken They told me it's a different supplier and its difficult to get them......... always something I hope the corporate office will do something about it soon and bring back all the good stuff we had b4 for no problem! read more

QFC - Grocery Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This QFC is located in the U. Village. I like coming here for some very specific reasons. Yes it is 24 hours like most QFC's. Since it is in the U. Village, there is a convenient parking lot to park your buggy in. A lot of the Seattle 24 hour QFCs will close their parking structures so you have to park on the street. Another helpful pointer, the Starbucks inside the QFC won't kick you out after the actual starbucks closes! Score for those who need a place to hunker down and get some work done. Usually will have a few UW students looking kind of haggard around finals time trying to burn the late night candle. read more

That awk moment when there is a QFC at the UVillage. But, actually. I mean it's a pretty typical QFC. Decently large...good for a shopping snack if you aren't into the mall's food. Lately, I have been pretty grumpy with QFC due to their lack of powdered peanut butter. Yep, this one had labels for it on the shelf, yet, no PB2 to be found. Third QFC...apparently that stuff is now as difficult to get as gold? Anyway, the guy ringing me up with okay. Weird...I was distracted and he asked me if I wanted a bag...and then he asks again "So have we resolved the bag issue?" Ummm....It was never really an issue... Yah, it is a QFC. Whoop de doo. Can you smell my excitement? read more

This QFC and I go way back. Like WAY WAY back.... like from when I was 2. We used to live around the corner. I used to come here and trick or treat as a toddler (they gave out apples!) Most of the meals I had were cooked with groceries Mom bought here. Over the years they've revamped their logo and this store has quadrupled in size. Service is still fantastic and I love the HUGE variety of items and selection. It caters to the UW students up the hill. Flower selection rivals the stands at Pike Place Market! read more

This QFC has been gradually becoming my favorite grocery store in the area. It's large for a city grocery store and has a good selection. Recently they added more parking, which had been an issue, and we never have trouble finding parking now. Parking is for 90 minutes, which can be a bit tight if you have other U Village errands to run also, but for just grocery shopping it's adequate. I really like the deli here, and there's a large seating area (which includes a Starbucks) where you can sit and eat. I especially like the Boar's Head wraps and sandwiches - while you can build your own, there are quite a few tasty pre-made choices named after Seattle and Washington places like "The Yakima" and "The Ballard." I love the bakery and the cheese counter that they added a few years ago. The floral department is pretty to walk through and has a lot of nice options. I might be a bit biased because I bought a yellow and pink rose here the first time I asked my partner out, and I still have it nearly 8 years later (now very dried). Prices on basic items like milk, eggs, and bread can be higher here than at Safeway, but Safeway's prices have been edging up as well so the difference doesn't seem as marked as it once did. This QFC often has great prices on produce, and a large selection with a good number of interesting items, including items you'd normally only see at an Asian grocery like jackfruit. Last week green peppers were only 50 cents each! They also occasionally have sales for sections of the store like the butcher counter. The wine, beer, and cider selection within the store is great, but the liquor situation is strange. QFC bought the former Washington State liquor store around the corner, and somehow they've made it worse. I went to the UW and used to always buy drinks for parties there, and the atmosphere always felt pretty friendly and jovial -- I mean, it was full of college kids buying booze. Now, there are bars on the windows and doors which I don't remember being there before, and the bluish lighting and carpets somehow seem depressing. The aisles are narrow and the staff have been rude. I know the picture on my ID is not the most flattering ever (I kind of have bug-eyes since I was trying hard to keep them open, and my hair looks bad; I'm glad I'll be replacing it this year) but one of them actually laughed when he saw it :( There's also no way to enter the liquor store from within the main QFC. The sushi here is better than you'll find at most grocery stores (there's a bigger selection and it's actually made in the store), and while I'm not Jewish, I'm glad that there's a store here with such a large kosher selection for those who need it. Also, you can get really good deals at the day-old bakery sale section (located near the freezer aisles); I regularly buy Macrina bakery bread loaves there, and last week I got an 8 inch pumpkin pie for $1.79 that still tasted quite good! I'm rounding up to 5 stars, since I really can't think of a better all-purpose grocery store in the area - but the liquor situation would need to be improved for me to truly love this store. read more

I come here when I go shopping in the area. I have been here two times and the customer service is just horrible. We came here today and the cash register kid and the bagger were plain rude. I think I am spoiled since I shop in my QFC in the Eastside and they are nice, calm and have people skills. I will definitely skip this place when I am shopping at UW Village. Thanks but no thanks. read more

Hey QFC, you pay a lot of money to advertise! But, guess what, we've had with your store! Went to buy an ad item, the self-check cashier did not know how to write a raincheck. We told him, we'd help him if he brought the form. Then he said he didn't know where they were located. So, we called the store after we got home and a person in charge texted a raincheck to our phone. Next time to the store, showed the text to the cashier and a "manager" (young man with attitude) said "You can't use that because we have no proof that you won't use it again". What? So now we're trying to scam you for an item on a raincheck? Your total disrespect and lack of trust means we won't, and don't, need to shop at your store again. We are truly over your constant continuing rudeness after several years of shopping there. There are plenty of better choices nearby so GOODBYE! read more
