    I shop at this Safeway three times a week and am quite familiar with the staff since I live nearby. I frequently use self-checkout because I usually purchase only a few items. On this particular visit, I was buying beverages for a sporting event and had clipped a water deal in the app. However, when I entered my number at checkout, the discount didn't apply. Patrick, one of the employees, told me to scan the app to ensure the deal was honored. I followed his recommendation, but the discount still didn't go through. I then walked over to his register to explain the issue, and instead of handling it professionally, he became verbally dramatic. He ended up giving me a dollar back from the register, but the interaction felt unnecessarily difficult and was not the difference of the water purchase. Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've had a negative experience with Patrick he has consistently been rude in my past encounters

    You would think with eggs costing $7-13 they could at LEAST price them or stock them accordingly. This is not the case. Be better Berkeley.

    A wide variety of food and good service. It's my neighborhood grocery store. I don't know what to say about the ambience.

    This is a terribly unfriendly store. They allow crazy long lines, have terrible produce; the store is an unhappy mess.

    The produce is good but nothing compared to berkeley bowl or monterey market, however I don't use it for produce.

On Tuesdays, tacos are $3 and fish tacos are $3.50 And they are effin GOOD. Jeebus they are good. I got the fish taco grilled for the first time yesterday. It was all I could eat. I'll be visiting for that more often. Even at full price ($5) that's a steal. IT WAS SO GOOD. They also have cheap, high quality meat. Which, in this economy, is a frikkin' god send. I go here for the meat a lot because I'm broke. And they are always so nice. I've never had any experience here where anyone was even approaching rude. Also, I am very shy about my bad spanish. But often, I'll try in Spanish and they will be patient with me about it. And I love them for that. They'll switch to English when they can tell I don't understand. (It's actually usually just me thinking. I think slow, lol.) Yeah. Lots of words, sorry. They have good meat. They have good tacos. They're nice.

    I stepped in to grab food before realizing there was a separate cafe next door…read more Decided to come back after dinner next door to pick up some dessert and I'm so glad I did! I got an assortment of Turkish delight and some pistachio baklava ($2.99). The Turkish delight is sold by weight across all the varieties and goes for $16.99/lb. The guy behind the counter was super friendly and offered us a sample of one of the flavors to try which I thought was a nice gesture. Everything looked so good, so we picked a couple different pieces of Turkish delight to try. To my surprise, my favorite ended up being the saffron, though rose petal with pomegranate and sour cherry with pastachio were close seconds. I didn't like the coconut or the chocolate one that much, so reminder to myself to skip those next time. After picking up the dessert, I did a quick circle around the store to see what they had. It's not a big store but they manage to cram a lot of stuff into the limited space!

The café bartenders are always kind -- once they even let me use the bathroom before I realized the laundromat had one. I've ordered a beer while waiting for my clothes to dry and was welcomed to sit with my dog on the back patio. The atmosphere is warm and accommodating. The market itself is a treasure trove: shelves filled with Middle Eastern dry goods, nuts, dried fruits, spices, blends, and condiments you can't find anywhere else. Kofta, shish kebab, falafel, sumac, garam masala -- it's all here. They also carry pita, lavash, labna, and other breads and yogurts that make cooking from scratch feel like heaven. Bonus points for the large assortments of delicious house made baklavas! Even without a full kitchen, the prepared foods are excellent. I ordered falafel, eggplant dip, hummus, and cucumber salad from the to‑go counter -- a mini feast for $26 that didn't disappoint. **Verdict:** Courteous service, respectful staff, and a fantastic selection. Whether you're cooking at home or grabbing a bite, this place is a gem. Highly recommended.
