I've written two yelp reviews in my life. Only when I'm disappointed beyond words. I literally just got a sandwich there ... 1) I cannot believe how long it takes them to greet the customer and to make a damn sandwich. 2) the sandwich was so sloppily put together ...it shows extreme lack of care. Maybe this place needs new management? When I went to eat the sandwich ... she had drowned it in mayo and didn't bother to wrap in clean paper so mayo was smeared across the whole outer part of the sandwich when she rolled it up. Train your deli people again ! read more

I like this location, it's close to the highway, plenty of parking and is usually stocked with their advertised items for that week. Most cashiers and the customer service counter are polite and I never experienced a problem . This store is smaller than some other stores and sometimes the check out line/ and deli counters have long lines . read more

Had a horrible experience with the florist that worked today, April 21. We stopped by here on the way to visit my father at the VA Cemetery; he passed away recently. What a mistake that turned out to be. I drove my mother two hrs to visit him. I usually buy my flowers in Davis at Safeway since I live there, although it does depend on whose arranging, but their usually decent and never had a problem with any staff member following my instructions. I came in picked out some Lilies, told the lady, "I wanted to add baby's breath and a few fern stems to make it more full, I would like it wrapped with the bottom open, since we were headed to the cemetery, and I needed it cut about to the rubber band that was already on the Lilies." I thought it was pretty straight forward, but apparently not. The florist grabs some fern and baby's breath from the back, then gets out a cemetery cup holder. I asked her before she cut what exactly she was doing because I don't want them that short...she stated, 'I'm using it as a guide to arrange it.' I told her I wanted it up to the rubber band and she ignored that cutting it super short. Then she kept adding more fern and I told her that is enough, so she added a few more fern not listening to what I said. I then asked her "how are you going to wrap it with it that short." She states, 'Oh you want it wrapped'. I told her yes with the bottom open and she wraps a rubber band around it and goes to the bucket near the Lilies and grabs a plastic bag. I ask, "What are you doing," and repeat for a third time now that "I wanted it wrapped with the bottom open" then she stated, 'Well I misunderstood, but that isn't the way we do it' I told her, "if you don't want to do it then don't, but every Safeway Ive been too always does it that way, and I informed you several times I wanted it wrapped." Then she said, 'I can wrap it, but we just don't usually do it that way.' It was like she didn't want to do it. My Mom was frustrated and I was already mad, but kept my composure, and stayed patient, then she still wasn't wrapping it, and cut it even shorter like she was doing it on purpose. The florist heard me say we should have just got the flowers in Davis, then walked away like she was angry, and brought out more fern but still didn't wrap it. When there was already a whole bush of fern out there. At this time some people were patiently waiting behind us, but when we first got there nobody was there so it's not like I was rushing her at all. I told my Mom let's go because she isn't listening to anything, and just kept giving us more attitude. The other customers left as well. We ended up buying overpriced flowers at a farm stand near the cemetery. She definitely ruined the day and our visit with my father. My mother was crying, not only because of my father, but that it was to be a somber day due to the visit already, and we just didn't need the extra drama. The attitude of the florist was completely unnecessary and unprofessional. I wasn't even rude at all until the end, and was just explaining what I wanted. The florist should have clarified instead of just blatantly ignoring my repeated requests. My mother told me to let it go, but I ended up calling the manager, and spoke with Sophia. Sophia apologized, was compassionate and professional addressing our concerns without making any excuses for the florist. She stated she wanted to make it right and at our convenience we should come in to pick up a gift card. I told her it wasn't necessary she could just talk to her but she insisted. When I arrived and told a cashier my name she and the male staff member that rang up the gift card at customer service also apologized. They both showed empathy and compassion during a very hard year in our life and that definitely means more than a gift card. Unfortunately I had to take off a few stars because I wouldn't have returned to make a second trip if the florist was just a decent human being. I didn't expect stellar customer service but even mediocre would have done today; just following my instructions would have sufficed. I am a veteran and a nurse myself, so I definitely deal with patient satisfaction and customer service, but I never have treated anyone the way she treated us today. Although I do not know if I will return, my suggestion for the future is that the florist today not be allowed to work directly with customers. Especially until she is properly trained, but sometimes you cannot teach people how to treat others. Unfortunately one sour person can ruin somebody's whole experience especially since it was my first at this Safeway. **To Sophia and the two team members thank you for your assistance with this matter, the gift card, and your kind sentiments toward this situation it was all greatly appreciated. read more

This is my go to store. The staff knows me by name and are always very helpful. The prices have gone up, but that is every where. The food is good, always fresh. read more

Just came in to get my wic and the young man who was there was so rude and also bought dish detergent and said I could not use the digital coupon that he would have override it all after I told him I also had wic and I asked for a manager and said there was not one available, I been coming here for more than ten years. So sad and said I am only a temp. read more

This is literally the worst managed Safeway I've ever seen. I've lived in 5 states and every time Safeway has been my "go to" for quick grocery runs. Not here. It's 11 am on a Saturday and I'm standing in a line 7 people long with 1 register open. It's been like this nearly every time I've tried to come over the last year... additionally their bakery is the worst I've seen and if you want to find an employee to help you, you're out of luck. I walked end to end in this store before finally asking someone at the deli. In a world full of grocery and convenience stores, you should pick any but this one. read more

I went there for the gas and stopped in for some groceries too. I was able to find everything l needed quick and easily. The service was great and I will return I paid $3.15 for the gas. Just across the way it was another $.30 higher read more

There is no sense of urgency in this place. The workers although extremely nice, need to pick up the pace when bagging and scanning at checkout. I spend more time in the checkout line than I do shopping. Whenever I need some assistance I rarely ever see an employee on the floor. I usually see vendors more than anything. The lines here are atrocious!!! All of there signs say "3 is a crowd" and they will open another like when it exceeds that. Shoppers of this market know that that is obviously not the case. The lines are always down the middle of the food aisles and I shop at the least busiest times/days. Either get more employees or train them better. This is why self checkouts are going to take over!! Get it together! read more

Occasionally I need a fried chicken fix and use Safeway deli as it is close by,most of time it is fine, nothing to get excited about, but ok. However there are times it is so salty i have had to throw it away. With quite a few people on salt restricted diets I am hoping they will tone down the salt. read more

Terrible Safeway. Thank god they just got a couple self check out stations but Jesus Christ whoever is in charge of hiring/training people to do the sandwiches is a moron. This guy today put pesto & turkey down on my sandwich then put it into the oven to toast it without asking + no mayo mustard or anything! What was he thinking? What about the cheese too?! No idea what's going on here. Either way they are super slow. I was here for 15 minutes for one sandwich. read more

As there are very few grocery stores in Dixon, I wish I could rate this higher. Low inventory and bad customer service on multiple occasions won't let me. Don't get me wrong, there have been a handful of employees that are extremely helpful. Recently, my boyfriend and I were trying to cash a check as we recently moved and our bank isn't in this area. It was just after 9am and no one was at customer service. My boyfriend checked in with a staff, Sharon, to ask if someone could help. He was told the customer service staff was at lunch and would be an hour. My boyfriend asked if anyone else would help and was told no. After having also tried to the night before with no luck, he was a bit frustrated. As he was leaving Sharon rifle stated to her coworker this is why we should use a bank. My boyfriend asked to speak with a manager. Sharon was reluctant but finally went to look for the manager. We were told the manager was on a meeting call and could not assist. We were then given an 800 number to call and no way to reach the manager directly. It is very unprofessional for staff to make fun of customers that need to use a service that their business offers. There are many reason why going to a bank might not be possible and for her to be so judge mental of customers is uncalled for. read more

Today was the last straw for me with delivery service from Dixon Safeway. More than half of my delivery was missing. There is some issue every time i get a delivery. I have mobility issues right now, so I rely heavily on the delivery service. It is not helpful when i have to contact customer service after nearly every delivery. I'm done with Safeway. Too much frustration. Grocery shopping elsewhere from now on!! read more

Safeway in Dixon is the store where I get most of my groceries. Convenient to my home, competitive prices, friendly, helpful staff and a tidy/clean store. Today I was seeking groceries for our upcoming camping trip. Matt in the meat department was instrumental in helping me select pork chops and a top sirloin steak. I am sure he was busy, but he didn't rush and was patient and very friendly to me. After picking out a nice steak, Matt pointed out that the pork loin was at a great sale for $1.49 a pound. What a deal since I was comparing the pork chops in the meat case that were on sale for $4.99 a pound. We found a nice pork loin and he cut off and seasoned 2 beautiful pork chops. Great deal!!! Thank you again Matt. Your kind assistance and your help with my pocket book was very much appreciated. read more

If you're in any kind of a hurry...GO ELSEWHERE! I've been to this store several times in the last few months, and each time the lines at checkout have been very, very, long! As Candice mentioned, that even goes for the EXPRESS (yeah, right) Line. The last time I went, I asked the checker what was going on (they only had 2 checkers working and each line was at least 10 people long), and she said someone called in sick...I asked to speak with the manager, and she says that that's the person that called in sick! Ridiculous! If this was a "one-off" issue, I wouldn't be writing this review, but this seems to be the norm at this store. Booo Safeway! Hire some people or manage this store better! read more

15 years shopping and no complaints except the stupid people that should of kept driving to the Mace Blvd. Whole Foods and spent 2X's as much but would of gotten what for it? read more

Deli has no eggs for breakfast sandwiches. They haven't had them for a couple days. You shouldn't offer things you don't have.

Was transferred to the gas station part of safeway, all i asked was how much per gallon of regular gas, she said she cannot give the information over the phone, whats the big secret?, I'm not asking for medical records, just the price of gas. read more

This Safeway is great. Staff is super friendly and always helpful. The other day I was looking at cookies in the bakery to bring to a party and couldn't decide on one. I asked a worker his opinion and he actually went to the back, opened a box of the cookies, and let me try one! So nice. Use your Safeway card at the station and save a few cents on gas. Also be sure to go online and upload coupons directly on your card! We save quite a bit of money but regularly shopping here. Downside-wouldn't recommend eating the sushi in the deli. About as expensive as you would get in an actual restaurant, and quality is terrible. But I guess you shouldn't expect much from sushi in the middle of a grocery store. read more

I usually don't shop at Safeway because the prices are higher then other stores but my house is 2 mins away so if I need something real quick I will go there. Bakery items are always fresh. $5 Friday deals are pretty good. Has Wells Fargo bank branch inside so that's convenient for me. The gas station is convenient. Usually cheaper then Valero across the street. They used to give a couple cents off per gallon when you used your club card but they stopped doing that. Now when you spend $100 you get $.10 off per gallon on your next fill up. What I don't like is the checkout lines. They always only have 1 or 2 lanes open even with a line. read more

I went into Safeway today and Brent was our checker. He is very very polite and I loved the vibe. We didn't exchange small talk or anything, but I appreciate his smile. Thank you Brent!!! read more

My husband bought chicken on 10/12/13 from Dixon Safeway and it's part of the salmonella lots (P6137, P6137A or P7632). Apparently Safeway isn't going to pull the chicken. They just posted the sign they were given. But they WILL refund our money! Why don't they just save the step (and potential poisoning of their customers) by removing the chicken? I just don't understand people. They also said to cook it until it's 160 degrees but since we were planning to bread it, we're not going to take a chance some part isn't cooked sufficiently. So Safeway can spend time refunding our money. read more

April 10 UPDATE: Out of desperation I stopped by Safeway on my way home, 4pm. I got the few things I needed and was again DISAPPOINTED AND PISSED, that there were only two checkers. The first line had nine, yes 9, people in line. The second line had eight, yes 8. REALLY? After spending 19 minutes in line I was approached by people outside to buy stuff. I'M DONE. THIS STORE SUCKS!! ------------------------------------------------ Did Safeway get new management? Long lines, no one at the deli? Someone is always selling something or begging for something out front. I don't want people begging/selling stuff before I go in the store. I've stopped going to Safeway because of the long lines (one checker at 5pm, really?) and people out front. read more

Florist Department!! Ginny in the dept was a great help to me!! She took the time to really help me; in a very stressful situation!! Thank you so much!!. Please don't review this business if you received a freebie for writing this review, or if you're connected in any way to the owner or employees. read more

One of the only safeways out there that has a gas station. The review though is not based on the gas station but the supermarket itself. This Safeway is a local treasure in my opinion. It's open conveniently 24 hours a day. So if you're in the mood to cook some steaks in the middle of the night then this place is for you. I personally have never experienced long lines here and staff is quite friendly. It located right off the free way off Pitt school rd so it's hard to miss. read more

Very disappointed with the bakery. I placed an order on Saturday for a birthday cake for someone who just got out of the hospital, so it's a pretty special birthday. Went to pick up the cake today (Tuesday) and there was no cake. No order slip, nothing. It was like the order was never placed. Thank goodness Baskin Robins is just across the street with pre-made ice cream cakes. Picked up one of those instead! read more

Went to safeway bakery Monday to order my birthday cake for Tuesday. Picked out exactly what I wanted, the color, kind of cake, frosting, filling and decorations. I was so excited because I thought it was gonna be super cute. My wife goes and picks it up on Tuesday, brings it home and I was super disappointed. Not one thing that I wanted was done. They put sugar crystals all over it. Which I did not want. It was white cake and I asked for marble. The color I wanted was not on there at all. The filling was buttercream frosting and very few strawberries, I had just wanted strawberries. To say the least I was very disappointed and will never order a cake from there again. read more

Clean store with friendly employees- but very few of them. There is always a line of 5-6 customers in the check out. I'm currently standing in the pharmacy line with 8 other people waiting to be helped. The line hasn't moved in the 20 minutes I've been here. If my daughter didn't really need this prescription, I would have left a while ago. read more

Eeek! No wrapping paper! So after hauling 75 mph on 80 trying to get to the Christmas Eve shindig, I swerved off the freeway to hit the Safeway here in search of wrapping paper, tape, and scissors. That's correct. I had misjudged my conscience into thinking that I actually had leftover paper from last year and when I realized I did not, leaving at 2:00 pm on the day before Xmas was a mistake. That's right. I was stuck in traffic for a good 3 1/2 hours. Since I knew there was a Safeway off the 80, I stopped and dashed out into the pouring rain. This Safeway seems to have gone through a remodel because it resembled many of the locations in Sacramento as well as the Bay Area. Clean, well lit, new shelving, and everything was in order. That is, until I reached the wrapping bin and saw that other than the generic paper that I would never buy (an insult to my usual tastes) I settled on a set that included four rolls of blue/silver themed wrapping paper complete with 8 foil bows. I was screwed in the behind for this emergency purchase to the song of $9.99. In addition, I purchased a four pack of Diet Red Bull, because I had been up until 3:00 with my friend Rolf running around the Castro, and tape and scissors (which are Titanium and came nicely priced at $12.99). What can we say. Beggars can't be choosers and when one is tight on time, I can't be that picky. There was a Starbuck's in this Safeway, but due to time, I had to avoid it. I was in line for the 15 items or less counter and the cashier looked at me while ringing the items. "Aren't you a little late in wrapping presents?" My thoughts exactly as I ran out of the store and then my little Made in Japan car merged with the bunch of other holiday revelers bustling towards their destinations on a rather wet Christmas Eve. Large parking lot and easy access on/off the 80. read more

If you're bored and have an hour to burn feel free to visit this Safeway and stand in line for an hour to pay for your pack of gum. Now, now- let's not be dramatic. It will take you at least 15-20 minutes if you stand in line during afternoon hours. read more

Safeway is Safeway. The people who work here are just lovely but too many times we have been in a line of 5,6,7 people and nobody else available to open another register. So much for 3's a crowd... read more

I went to Safeway this evening to pick- up a couple of items, but when I tried to use my atm it didn't work? I noticed after a few tries about the fourth , I asked the cashier what should I do? I thought to myself isn't this a chip - reading ATM? and why does the buttons not work . I also noticed the buttons where very worn and looked old, and to my surprise the lady put a cashier paper- roll under the machine .Wow that worked fourth try. So, after she whipped- out that trick I had to ask myself ok, I am at Safeway and would only expect this from a, " so -called" cheaper store ( like maybe , dollar store). Safeway please , take some advise invest in better ATM machines and stop wasting my time as well as your cashiers. You need to compete, "someday, "maybe? read more

Pretty cool store in my honest opinion. Good selection of groceries and the customer service was spot on. Would definitely recommend this place for grocery shopping read more

I stop by the deli section of Safeway in Dixon once in a while whenever I feel like getting my Starbuck's fix and grabbing a sandwich. Their sandwiches are pretty good (homemade like) but the workers are really slow. Even when it is just myself ordering it takes a while to get my sandwich. I alway get the same younger worker and she seems like she's always in a bad mood, no personality and never smiles...the older lady seems much nicer but I haven't gotten her to help me yet. If I didn't like their sandwiches so much I probably wouldn't even stop by the deli section here. read more

Best place to get cheap gas along I-80. Why? Because of competition, when there are two other gas stations on the corner competing for customers. read more

Ever since Albertson's took over getting your prescriptions has been a nightmare! Reduced staff computer programs that freeze. We love the staff there and fell their pain! I think it's time to move our account to CVS. read more

Seems to always have a long wait to checkout.Yes, its a small Safeway,but geez you think they would have more cashiers on hand, since there is a demand of service which is the reason for the long lines. Have experienced numerous times where the line to checkout is half way down an aisle. Definitely not a place to stop if you're in a rush. read more

Deli sandwiches are good but every time I go in the workers behind the counter act like they would rather be somewhere else and it is annoying them that I ordered something. I have been several times so not just a bad day. read more

I'll usually run across expired shelf items. Yogurt, milk, hummus, dips, cheese. Make sure you check before you buy.

The checkers and store staff are good but the lines in this store are like none I've seen elsewhere. Often only 2 checkers at 5p, when everybody is shopping after work. Personally, I only shop here in a pinch. I go to Davis Safeways instead. They are in desparate need of self-check service!! read more

Very nice people work at this location. It is very disheartening that every time I have to come after work, there aren't many people working. It takes forever to check out. read more
