I love this store - very clean inside and out. 'Had shopped at Albertsons for years then discovered this store on Baseline and Higley . I am a very early riser and felt very safe at 6:00 am to go from the parking lot into this Safeway. Now I order my groceries on line every week and pick them up. He does a much better job choosing produce " ) Very nice man with excellent customer service. read more

Went in on first Oct. Wednesday, 10% off Senior day. Only about 4 people in the entire store. Got a buggy, walked to customer service. (CS). Three people were in the area. One behind the CS desk. All 3 looked at me. Two kept talking. Lady behind CS desk look at me again, as I approached the desk she walked out from behind the desk, joined the other two, then looked at me (sideways) and said "do you need help?". I said "never mind", walked away and all 3 kept talking. I walked out and wasn't across the street to Fry's to spend my $150 in UHCard/gift card/cash. Fry's was bustling,. If staff looked at me, they said "good morning, finding everything okay?" Well stocked, offered to cut cabbage in half for me, staff walked me to my item (no pointing). Found everything I needed. Got my 10%, plus digital coupons. I loaded up for the next 2 or 3 weeks. Tommy offered to help with groceries to my car. I tried to shop you Safeway, but my money is not "Green" to you. I still love your baked goods, but I understand and will not bother you again. read more

YELPies!!! I had the best experience at the Safeway meat counter!! I was looking for rib eye steaks and when there weren't any on the shelf.. I went to the meat counter and Jolene and Justin S. Quickly asked what I needed. Justin went to the back and came back with a whole slab. Of course, Justin asked me what parts I needed.. Tehehehe... I said yes to 3 bone . He happily cut it for me as we exchanged great convo about how specific people are about cuts of meat they request. I quickly realized 3 bone meant more than what I needed.. he saw the confusion on my face and I quickly said I just needed 3 individual rib eye steaks. Justin was so sweet and kind and laughed with me about the obvious look of concern on my face as he handed me a huge selection of meat. Needless to say Justin cut what I needed and Ms. Jolene joked and said.. he will get it right in a minute . I appreciate the customer service, the laughs and the professionalism of Justin S. and Ms. Jolene. I can say... when you go to the butcher.. be specific and know what you're asking for . They are the meat professionals and I take my hat off to them. Safeway was clean and well lit as usual and the atmosphere in the meat department was top notch!! YELPies, If you're near this particular SAEFEWAY in Gilbert, stop on in and say hi to Justin S. and Ms. Jolene at the meat counter ! It's a YELP'in good experience. read more

I hope this is the Safeway at Higley and Baseline which is where I went yesterday. I wanted the peanut butter filled UTZ brand pretzel nuggets and I also wanted to take advantage of the $10.99 deal for a case of Pepsi. I was also purchasing several other items. I went in around 4:00 p.m. and there were only 4 young people working the front end of the store. They looked like they were about high school age or just a little bit older. When I went in, I checked down aisles 12 and 13 for the pretzels and found none. I went to self check out to ask the clerk on duty where I could find them and he said try salty snacks on aisle 13. I went down that aisle and did not find a spot where they would be located, however, I found one container sitting ON THE FLOOR in front of the Reese's peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets. I grabbed that one and went to the front to show what I was looking for. I was at the customer service counter this time and was told they didn't have any by another young man when CLEARLY they have them because I had one in my hands. One young man said he thought he knew where they might be and briefly went to "look" for them and came back saying they didn't have any. I asked for help finding the case of Pepsi so I could take advantage of that sale and the clerk at self checkout just kept showing me the 12 pack with 3 extra cans and told me that was the biggest box of Pepsi that they carried. I kept telling him that there are 24 cans in a case and he just kept showing me the other box and calling it a case. I was appalled that a young person nowadays did not know that 24 cans or bottles of whatever is a case. Finally, I gave up and paid for my other items. When I put my cart back, I saw a whole display of the UTZ peanut butter filled pretzel nuggets. I grabbed 3 of them and went to customer service and to self checkout and showed them the pretzels and told them where they were in case anyone else asked for them. I simply got an "Okay"! Then when I was walking to pay (again) at self checkout, there was a display in front of the registers with CASES of Pepsi with an advertised price of $10.99. I got my limit of 2 and proceeded to pay for them. They rang up at $16.99 and I once again had to call over the clerk and pointed to the sign and pointed out that this was a case with 24 cans. He adjusted my price and said nothing else. What has happened to customer service with young people these days? When I walked up to the customer service counter the second time, the 3 boys were just standing around chatting to a young lady that was there working as well. It took them a minute to finish up and acknowledge me. I do not plan to ever return to this Safeway again. Those employees did not know their products, their store, and showed NO customer service skills or even a willingness to help. Very disappointing. read more

I've been to this location ever since we moved from Washington to Arizona. I find the staff are very customer service oriented. Clean and plenty of parking. The pharmacy team is excellent with assisting my all meds needs. This is my place for the weekly grocery shopping. read more

I have been to this Safeway dozens of times in the last 20 years, as it is the local one in my area. The store is always well stocked, clean, and staffed with kind, helpful people. All of us have likely been to a Safeway grocery store, so there is no use describing the products they offer. I do like that they have a Starbucks booth in the store, as it allows me to grab a drink if I am waiting for my family to shop. Prices here are pretty much as expected. I do find that the produce seems better quality than almost any other store in the area. The real feature of this Safeway is the kind and helpful staff. I have yet to meet any employee here who wasn't kind and warm to talk to with. Everyone has to shop for groceries. Making it a good experience is really only possible with good employees. For that, Safeway is to be commended. read more

Multiple items I purchased were more than marked, by a significant amount. How does this happen multiple times in the same shopping trip? Definitely do not trust the pricing on the shelves, even if it says the name of the item on them. In addition, I was using self checkout so nobody could even adjust the pricing for me, and there were no bags. The person there to help was occupied checking out someone else so I couldn't even have the mis-priced items removed and I didn't notice one of the other ones until I had gotten home. The wrongly priced items increased this shopping trip cost by nearly $20 more than I intended to spend. That's kind of a big deal when your grocery budget is not very high to begin with and you can't deviate from it. read more

The manager here at night at Christmas time went above and beyond for us. We self checkout and got home realize my husband didn't grab the bag with the medication we needed so bad we called the store not realizing they all ready were closed. The manager answered the phone and said he would wait for us at the door to come back and get. He really saved us I was super sick so thank you read more

I went to the deli today to get some of their delicious chicken. everyone was so polite, except for this one guy. He was bald and I think he's name was Mike? He must have been new since I've never seen him before. But something was off about him, he kept looking down at my chest and didn't speak in a very friendly manner, kinda like he didn't want to be there and made me feel really uncomfortable read more

Rude and condescending cashier I believe her name is Terri. Reprimanding a new person she was supposed to be training bagging groceries in front of customers and then saying to the customer loud enough for others to hear..."this is just what I need as my shift is ending", then gave me a hard time when I asked why my online discount coupons weren't reflected in the total. This isn't the first time she has given me attitude while checking out my groceries. Sorry...a customer service position is foreign to her. On the other hand, hats off to the older man with glasses (butcher) in the meat department. He has helped me numerous time with special cuts and some education and probably doesn't get the recognition he deserves read more

They had what I wanted . No longer lines plenty of cashiers and baggers each time I'm at this location! The front store check our staff is definitely friendly compared to those in deli, bakery and seafood departments! The other departments just don't speak or acknowledge you. read more

not sure if this is the correct one i went to but store number 1717. STEVE AND EDITH are underappreciated and defiantly make the deli run sooooo smooth and clean! The food there was superb,the jojo's were crisp and clean tasting the mac n cheese hot but not dry they're workstations were very clean and 5star city code passable for sure those two are an amazing duo! their customer service was impeccable they were precise and very quick as well .keep up the amazing work don't give up before the miracle. & See Miracles In life Everyday~ SMILE:) read more

I would rather give them no stars than one but here I am giving them one came here to get a sandwich for lunch and they had no bread asked to speak to the manager who was in the middle of a meeting who very reluctantly came out and said yeah OK I'll handle it although I still had no bread for lunch Won't be back for any reason read more

This is my second time at this location. Didn't have any problem first time with bakery section. But today was a horrible experience. Employee at the bakery section was super rude. I asked her about cake ingredients and expiration date. She got all mad. Was hitting fridge doors, didn't want to help at all. Later threw a cake in the box on the table and walked away. Super upset with such experience. read more

Didn't have a specialty ingredient that I couldn't find at other grocery food store chains, even though their app said they do have it. When I went up to customer service to ask about it, they finished helping the one person and then both employees walked off behind the door which was behind the customer desk. read more

I don't understand the reviews stating only one check out line open. There is a sign claiming a 3 person guarantee. More than 3 people, they open another check out. Maybe this is a direct result of past reviews, but I've seen it in action. That being said, I go to this store because it's right down the road from me. I use the Safeway card, in store specials, flyer coupons, and the 10% senior discount on Wednesday to save a bundle. Last trip I saved 48%. I got fuel points toward a discount at the pump also. This is not where I do most of my shopping, but I do watch the flyers and snatch up the deals here. read more

It's a Safeway. Not my normal stomping grounds but found myself here looking for a birthday card and gift card for a specific retailer. I didn't find either. But, is a grocery store really the place to buy birthday cards and gift cards? Well, maybe the gift cards. But the store was clean, the shelves were stocked so it appears to be an average Safeway. Did I get what I came for? Nope. But I'll keep the stars in check since I wasn't shopping for "groceries" anyway. Clean store, stocked shelves, Safeway prices 3 Stars read more

After going to every local grocery store, I found a great one! Ok, first understand that not all have the same prices, selection or hours. If you want a football field sized store and walk a mile to save a few cents, then go to Walmart. I just don't have the time. I go to the store every day and MUST have what I need and good customer service to get what I need. Tried Fry's, Basha's, etc and found issues with customer service and lack of stock. This Safeway's staff, especially the manager, Joann, makes sure that everyone is happy with all aspects of the store, from quality to a smile! She knows everyone, asks about your day and remembers the little things! She makes you feel like you are a friend! She takes customer service VERY seriously. Everyone has a negative experience from time to time no matter where you go, that is normal for any business. What I like about this store is, I know if something is wrong, it will be taken care of. Just ask, just speak up! You will be surprised at how important it is to this customer service staff to hear your opinion! Is it possible to go to a grocery store and NEVER have an issue? NO! Is it possible to have an issue that is ALWAYS taken seriously and taken care of with a smile? YES! At this Safeway! read more

Produce is good. The store is never too busy and not monstrous like the ginormous Fry's across the street. The management is very nice and the Starbucks inside is adequate. read more

Terrible NEVER USE SAFEWAY GROCERY DELIVERY! Made an order, it never got delivered and per Maureen with Safeway Grocery customer Service my order was cancelled doesn't know why, but it was cancelled. Nothing they can/will do about it! TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Oh and I was told yea we see you used a promo, you won't be able to use it again. Sorry wish there was something we could do....... NEVER AGAIN WILL I MAKE THIS MISTAKE! I will stick to shopping from FRYS food store and just do my order pick ups there! They don't let their customers down! They don't cancel orders for no reason, they have resolutions for their customers!!! read more

I live in the area, so it's not uncommon I hit up Safeway for early morning/late night grocery runs. As a full time student and worker, those are really the only times I get to waste time shopping at the store. And I mean waste in every sense of the word. Every.single.time. I go to this particular location I remind myself I'll never go back. Yes, I said NEVER, but living down the street and this being the closest grocery store, never really means I won't go back this week. So I find myself returning -- abusee/abuser relationship much? and my experience never changes. Anytime I'm at this location, there is only one checkout aisle open. Yes, I said that - ONE. So I quickly pick up the items I need-- you know, bread, milk, water, maybe a snack or two and then I painfully wait in line for what seems like an eternity - hey once I even watched hair grow on my legs as I waited... jk- but really 20 minutes go by and I finally get to the checkout. Plug in an old phone number for my Safeway card and finalize my painstakingly long order. After writing this review I sure hope I'll smarten up and just go to infinitely better stores (Sprouts or Fresh & Easy) down the road! read more

What a SCAM, Show a ham for 99c. When in Friday afternoon and pick a ham. Showed to butcher and he said wrong ham we have no product like that for that price you could pay $3.99. 2.5 days into a 7 day ad and have no product. Asked for a rain check and said tough luck no rain checks. They advertise a loss leader product and had no intention to have a real supply. I think they bought 6 instead of 600 and the manager got 5. To bad I drove past Frys foe this SCAM read more

This store needs to have more registers open! There's always only ONE open and the line is long! Helloooo!! Open up some more when there's a line! And forget about it if someone is paying with a check... Who does that anymore?! The lady in front of me tonight did and they had to re-ring her up 3 times! I will say there is a really nice guy who works in produce - I couldn't find sun-dried tomatoes and he brought them over to me while I was at the butcher counter and he brought over every kind they carried! Very nice guy, didn't catch his name. However, I have to stand and wait EVERY time for someone to help me at the butcher counter. But I will say their meat is exceptional! read more

I've gotten spoiled meat there on two separate occasions, a few months ago and this weekend. On Sunday I had a pickup order where they sold me gray pork chops that expired that very day (I never would have bought that if shopping in the store), and a steak that turned out to be rancid. No excuse for this. Never again. read more

Pharmacy service here sucks. It's barely 7:55 and they close already ;when it suppose to be 8. What if there's an emergency. Normally you show ID WHEN picked up. She wouldn't fill without ID. read more

the bathroom is disgusting I found pee on the floor I bought a card and it did not work i tried 5 time I tried to Activate it but it said it already was I went back and they said that they won't give me a refund even though I showed them a picture read more

Ditto to what Nicole said every time I come here I ask myself why I did it again. At a grocery store you should be able to go in and out just to buy a gallon of milk or sometime like that. Not here you are guaranteed to wait in a 15min line with only 1 cashier. This place is in dyer need for more cashiers. Otherwise go to the 24h frys on baseline and power. read more

I've been shopping here for 16 years - avoiding it when I can. Today was another reminder of why I go out of the way to Walmart or Frys. If there is a more poorly managed grocery store, I've never been there. Today at 3:00 - not many customers. Two checkers (NO BAGGERS!). An elderly woman in front of me with a few things. But she couldn't find something she had a coupon for. No problem said the checker, she'll go get it. And left. I muttered an obscenity that I need to go to confession for, and went to the other line. The woman in front had a large purchase that was wrapping up - but the dumb cashier took forever to count the correct number of Monopoly tickets. Finally got my ONE item rung up and paid. As I was leaving, the manager had taken over the other line - and that same old woman was still there and now she was angry how long this was taken, where did the stupid checker go? I've been waiting 16 years for some real competition at this corner. With all the construction going on, the huge retirement center going in, I pray that some well-run, quality store will open up across the street and force this damned Safeway to either go out of business or start operating like they want customers to come back. I don't like the idea of Walmart and Amazon taking over the retail world, but if companies like Safeway expect customers to want to come back, they have got to do a better job of serving us. Have several checkers and baggers all the time. This Safeway seems like a ghost town compared to the nearby Frys and Walmart. No question in my mind why. read more

It's stupid that I had to wait 10 minutes to get some sliced pastrami at the deli even though the man was free to slice it and the pastrami was sitting in front of us. He was required to call the manager to get permission to use the pastrami. Ridiculous when I complain to the manager she wasn't interested. read more

Terrible customer service, had us waiting for way too long and acted like a bunch of hooligans. 10 out of 10 don't recommend!!

Clean store, convenient for things I may randomly need but do not do my general grocery shopping here. Prices way higher than frys. Also, one thing I do not like about this particular location is that there is no self check lines (which in this day and age seems so weird).....I always have to wait when I get in line. read more

It's OK. But the cashier was talking with a friend who was ahead of me in line and he was swearing. I don't mind swearing but that's super unprofessional. read more

Safeway discriminates against the elderly. how so? Many elderly folks can't afford one of these fancy computers to get the wink, wink, electronic ad price. Safeway employees can't or won't help the customer in this matter. It's there very deceptive add pricing that makes me not want to be a Safeway Customer. So I go into the Safeway looking to get a good deal and then I find out at the register; I can't get those prices unless I have added items to their electronic "app". Safeway's app sucks and it takes forever to go through and look at all of the items on sale to get that special price. Mostly I don't shop here anymore because of the deceptive ads. One you need to remember is the soda pop, if it's on sale, you have to spend $25 more to get the sale price on the soda pop. Making Safeway a planned hassle event instead of a just walk in and shop. You have to read though their ad looking for the tiny disclaimers; everyone loves doing this. It's not fun to shop at Safeway because of this. If you shop at Safeway and find that you have items in your cart and you're not getting the special prices; Let them put the entire cart away and leave. Old peoples lives matter. It's hard for old people to see tiny print. Sometimes deceptive print, in which the customer is left to calculate in their minds the value of items in the cart; taking into account sale prices. before getting to the register; making sure to account for the soda pop sale conditions. It's no wonder I dread shopping at Safeway. read more
