We rarely shop this store anymore because we prefer another Safeway closer to our home. However, that store didn't have a brisket flat--or any brisket--which is what I was in the market (literally) for. Anyway this 5-star rating is for the butcher who not only was extremely friendly and helpful but gave me some info I'd never heard or read elsewhere. All we remember was that he was tall, had blondish-brown hair and wore glasses. I usually smoke my own beef jerky using sliced top round 'London Broil", and I smoke my own bacon from sliced pork belly. This wonderful butcher told me that he knows folks who not only make smoked beef jerky from brisket but make bacon from the point or the round. Ironically, he didn't own a smoker so he at times he confused the two parts of a beef brisket (and confused me as well). But it was all knowledge I didn't have before and it also gave me summer project to schedule. He also asked me to come back and tell him how the bacon turned out after it's done. Darn but I wish I'd have asked him his name. But the most important thing was that he handed me a gorgeous brisket flat at the weight I'd requested. Anyway, great customer service with added value always rates five stars with me. We may not shop that Safeway again for awhile but I will be going back to the meat department to find that butcher and give him a sample of my handiwork. And yes, I'll buy more meat from him. He's an example of what I've always maintained: make friends with a butcher in the meat department. You'll always get service above and beyond because in the end, it motivates you to buy more meat. I've amended this to also include making friends with a produce manager or clerk, and become really good chums with at least one cashier. Because I've made a point of the latter, checkout time is party time for my wife and I and our favorite cashiers. And that actually makes grocery shopping fun. read more

I always come here to get my prescription, and their pharmacy is always on point. Glowing reviews for them, especially that fellow with the ginger hair. Hard worker. -- Unfortunately for me today, I had to go right after getting off my own shift at Fred Meyers so I was still in my uniform. A customer approached me, as expected, thinking I worked there. She asked for the location of an item. I was heading up to the front to check out anyway, so I decided to ask the woman at the only opened checkout stand where it was for her. This is the reason for coming to leave this review. The woman at the checkout stand. I walked up and explained I didn't work there, but a customer asked me where this item was. I asked her if she could direct me to it. She looked me directly in the eye and ignored me. An older Hispanic woman who did not appear to be wearing a nametag. As she continued to ignore me, I witnessed her being rude to the customer currently checking out with her. Stood there for a moment thinking she didn't hear me so I asked again. Nope, she looked me in the eye again and ignored me once again. I was baffled. I'm not sure if she thought I worked there, and that's how she treats her co-workers asking her questions? Or is that how she simply treats customers??? I have my own coworkers like this, but none with the brazen gall to do it to customers. She wordlessly watched me turn and walk off upset. I found that item myself and went back to tell that customer where it was. She told me she might just start going to Fred Meyers instead because I actually helped her. A shame for all the other employees at that store that have to work with that woman. She seems like a miserable person to be around for customers and her coworkers alike. read more

We needed two items (one was alcohol) and the lines were long. Ava at the self checkout allowed us to go through that since nobody was there. It's not like we needed to be carded...my husband is 60. Ava was so friendly and personable as we mentioned this would never happen in California where we are from. I truly wish California cashiers were as polite and happy as Ava!!! She seems to genuinely like her job. read more

Safeway - Grocery Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

I mainly shop at their sister property, but I do go here for other items, and I have to say that the store is always extremely clean and the staff is very pleasant. It is often very difficult to find some thing and when you do find out it's great because the prices are currently good but the next time you go in to replenish your supply, they don't carry it anymore and that's a huge drawback. Did you carry a nice variety of food items? Of course it's a grocery store and I have to say I do like their produce department they do have quite a large selection, and it always appears very fresh. However, typical of most grocery stores. Their prices are through the roof, which is really sad because there's so many people that struggle to pay their bills. read more

We visited this Safeway twice during our stay in Port Orchard. My membership from Hawaii worked fine here when checking out. Groceries are so much more cheaper here even with the 9% tax. There is a Starbucks right at the entrance. They had lots of grande pink lemonade tumblers for sale too. There are lots of Seahawks and Kraken merch for purchase. I didn't encounter any workers and again utilized the self checkout as we were always on the go. So those were definitely useful! read more

Bought gas here. I usually over pay to make sure I have enough gas & if I'm under I get the cash back. Not so Saturday 1 March 2024 at 14:30. Employee refused to give me my cash back & told me the only way I'd get change was to put it back on my card. This is the first time that happened! That takes forever to get credited back to my account & he seemed to very much enjoy inconveniencing me. That annoyed me more than not getting cash back. Never getting gas here again. read more

Safeway - I bought this pineapple 3 days ago from Safeway in Port Orchard. The skin was still green. I will never buy produce from there again. - Grocery Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

This particular has to do with pharmacy, my wife had a miscarriage and we just left the hospital. "Aiden" states to come back after 2:00 pm we checked the store hours and it states 09:00- 13:30 I checked in with the pharmacy at 12:56 and they said to waited till after 14:00 so they can take there "lunch break" pharmacies tech " Aiden" so he said's. I'm not the one to write reviews but she really needs the medication and just to stare at me and say come back at 14:00 is really a big slap in the face, also laughing in back with the other techs too. read more

RUDE EMPLOYEE! I asked an employee where a specific food aisle was, since I have never shopped at this location. They shrugged their shoulders without even looking at me. So I politely asked again, and they pointed to produce. (Not even close to what I was asking for.) I get it's a stressful time, but if you're going to be rude to people for no reason what so ever, then don't work in an industry where you have to interact with other people. Freaking ridiculous. read more

The manager Rachel is an incredible representation of this Safeway location. Every time my husband and I go for our routine weekly grocery visit, I always see her bustling around helping employees and customers in any way possible . She has an infectiously pleasant personality that honestly left an impression on us after only a 5 minutes encounter in the check out lane. Just yet another great experience at this location. read more

This is for the gas station. This has been going on for 3 months now, when I try to use my debit card the pumps all of them go through all the steps like its working and then restarts and last month the teller said its been a problem and it won't get fixed until next year. Now there acting like its just me that has the problem they told me it's just me. For 3 months I have had to pay cash for my has. But what makes me mad is there lying about it and acting like its not happening. And that its never been a problem. If you want to use a card here it won't work read more

Starbucks, deli, bakery, butcher, and stocked shelves fill this store. Everything you might need except a singles bar! Clean, bright, and busy makes this a comfortable shopping experience. read more

I have never left a review anywhere. Went to Safeway today, I go there all the time, was going self check out, I had probably 8 items, and I was just finishing when the guy working in that area came over and said, hey, your water is still there. I wasnt done! Felt like he either thought I was senile or shoplifting. Whatever it was, it was rude. I guess I'll go to Wal Mart from now on. read more

I hate this location. I do not use hate very often but this place is a joke. The staff is rude and unkind. The employees think it's best to complain about other coworkers or even management in front of customers. I try to keep my distance from this place as much as possible. read more

I hardly ever go to the Safeway Starbucks, but today I received the worst rude costumer service. It happened before to my husband too. He was so angry and couldn't believe the way she treated him. And now today I get it. She was rude and condescending. Anyway the whole experience was awful. You may forget what someone said to you, but you never forget how someone made you feel. read more

Safeway Port Orchard: I've never seen an employer who gets away with treating there employees the way this store does and still be successful! My girlfriend works here and she always does more than most others in her department and she gets scolded for trying to help out a customer whose order was not done correctly because Safeway got the order all wrong. This happened in the bakery and so they had to decorate this cake while customer was waiting. The customer ordered cake a couple weeks ago and it still wasn't ready because the store didn't get correct date that she wanted to pick it up. Now the lady has all this time wasted while waiting for decorations and now she running late to where the cake was suppose to be delivered. My girlfriend is trying to keep this gal calmed down while she is waiting. My girlfriend knows she's going to have work harder to catch up on her other duties! My girlfriend gets reprimanded for customer service because the director says she is talking to long!! My girlfriend will skip her breaks because they don't care enough about there employees to give them enough time for all the breaks. Safeway has safety issues that have been complained about and they just ignore them. Just one for instance there walk in freezer has no lighting so while trying to move food around with flashlights. Oh correction it was only out for a day. That's enough venting. The Employees that I've seen at Safeway try really hard to be customer friendly and bend over backwards to keep people happy when management treats them with no respect. There are no incentives for employees to do more. I always found the better you treat your employees the better attitude everyone has trickles down and to the customers the life blood of any buisiness. I believe that Safeway has that going for them above and beyond the other stores is great customer service!! All Safeway employees keep up the great customer service despite the Neanderthal management! read more

The people who work at this Safeway are top notch. They are always so friendly and willing to help out. The checkers make great conversation and are quick with things like produce. The shelves are usually pretty well stocked and there's decent sales that go on here. They support the local community and you'll find little sales of things going on outside to raise money. Overall, I enjoy shopping at this Safeway. read more

Safeway Pharmacy in Port Orchard is THE BEST! Everyone seems to go above and beyond for you here, and I should have reviewed them long ago. It wasn't until today that it dawned on me to write a yelp review. This afternoon I went to pick up my ready RX, and was waiting for a consult from the pharmacist, who was backed up because he was giving vaccines....... That randomly Ryan, one of the pharmacist walked by (CLEARLY ON HIS OFF TIME) and gave me a consult so I didn't have to wait. I had my 18 month old daughter with me, and I SO appreciated that. Thank you again for your excellent service!!!! :) read more

I just wanted to shout out to Naomi the cashier. Even though I visited this safeway last month, I wanted to applaud her on customer service. The man in front of me was returning Orange juice because he had been over charged by two dollars, and was being rather aggressive. I've worked in customer service before, and I know that people like this can really take away from your happiness for a while or even the rest of the day. However, Naomi kept on smiling till she was able to help the man, and went on smiling when she helped me with my small purchase. Sorry it took so long to post! You made me smile all day! Thanks for the awesome customer service, and lovely attitude! read more

I've always been a fan of Safeway perhaps because it was the grocery store my wife and I always went to when we got married or cause I enjoyed their stores. What i have learned not all Safeway's are the same. This one has a remodeled / new modern decor, clean and friendly employees. Very much recommend it. read more

Perfect neighborhood Market.. Always friendly and fully stocked with excellent promotions.

I did the order online and pickup service for this store and will never ever do it again. I placed my order the night before to pick it up at 2 pm the next day, but I had til 8 to pick up the order. I got there at 6' pm, let them know I was there and then sat for 20 minutes waiting for an order that wasn't ready Even though their app said it was. I then went into the store and waited even longer for someone to help me, I told them I hadn't received my order yet. The lady helping me, walked away and then came back telling me to get a cart. On top of the rude attitude she gave, I then waited another ten minutes for the order to be complete. With how the whole experience went I would have been better off shopping myself with how long it took, I would also not have to deal with extremely rude service. As a final thing she neglected to give me my receipt or papers for the order, when I drove back to pick up the papers. She laughed at me as she handed over the receipt. read more

I was going to give 3 stars but I decided 4 stars because of its convenience and friendly/helpful staff. It is convenient because it's very close to where I live and it satisfies most if not all of our grocery needs. If we need more of a particular product or something that's not available in Safeway, then we go to Costco in Silverdale. On Valentine's Day, I was looking for a vase for the flowers I bought for my wife. A friendly person came up to me and not only showed me where the vases were located but also made recommendations on selections. Even on other normal days they are always more than happy to assist. disclaimer: not ALL Safeways are created equal. read more

They received two because they were clean and organized, but customer service is not that great. After shopping, my daughter was not feeling well and had to take her to the bathroom. I went to the customer service to ask where the ladies room was located and this young lady (teenage?) cut me off to tell me where it was. She said it so fast, all I heard was double doors. If you're going to hire young adults, please be sure that they know what customer service means. read more

I shop here often on my way to work in the morning. Even though the staff is hugely busy stocking shelves, everyone says "hello" and asks if I need help. They are fast and friendly, and it makes for a great way to start the day. I especially appreciate the cashiers who make sure everyone gets checked out quickly and are always friendly. read more

Safeway got smart and added a nice selection of organic produce fairly priced. The store seems much better run with their face lift! They are really trying to please; and it shows! Business is increasing each time I visit. And I LOVE that a credit union has parked there, too. ALASKA CREDIT UNION...much preferred over those horrid big five! Wells Fargo, anyone?? LOL (Eee gads hope I don't get sued!) read more

This Safeway is open until MIDNIGHT! Nothing else in UP is open that late, so this is useful. Btw though I've been here at like 11:30pm on new years eve and there's a huge line and one cashier open. Plan accordingly... read more

I experienced Safeway in Port Orchard one last time today. Never, again, will I shop there and be treated the way I was today. After a weekend with the flu, I braved the 60s to get out and pick up a few heat and serve items and a sandwich. As I have done numerous times before, I stopped at the Big Lots and picked up a few additional items before heading next door. These items were placed in a recyclable bag, top tied, receipt on top. Last stop before checking out was getting a board sandwich from the not busy deli area. The clerk had to have my turkey, bacon, avocado sandwich add lettuce and tomato repeated more than once. All inclusive to the sandwich board. He assembled the sandwich without the avocado and took it apart to add it after the fact clearly annoyed when I mentioned it. He did not attempt to heat the cold bacon. He said it didn't need to be. Only if I wanted a decent sandwich, so I asked him to. He put in on a microwave tray with no liner of any kind, slapped it on the sandwich rolled it in the paper wrap not even bothering to cut it in half or placing the price tab securely to keep it wrapped up. Dirty knives, mayo9?) encrusted were used to spread ranch dressing and to cut the sandwich. Both put back in the dirty water containers they were removed from. Anyone can get a food card. Cross contamination with two dirty knives with mayo/ranch dressing on them, not getting clean knives for my sandwich or next customer, directly putting protein on a microwave tray that was returned unclean to the oven, not what I learned in sanitation class when I spent two years in culinary school. Customer service skills? ZERO. As I went to check out, a cashier asked me to get in her line. I emptied out the top portion of the cart, placed my recyclable bag by my items when a cashier at the next register asked me if I wanted her to "empty" the bottom bag. It remained tied with the receipt on top. I said no, they were not purchased at Safeway. By this time there were people in line. My cashier then looked at me oddly and asked for a receipt for the items in the lower bag purchased at Big Lots. I showed her the receipt, complained about the sandwich and making an issue out of the bag in the lower part of my cart. Surely, my 3 carat diamond ring, platinum watch and designer clothes were not an indication that I was a shoplifter. It was embarrassing and uncalled for and not the first time I've brought a bag from another store into their store. In the 12 times I have shopped there this has never happened. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. It won't happen to me, again, because I am not going back. I can spend my money elsewhere. This seasoned shopper knows when and where to shop and when not to return to a store that has poor customer service. You are only as good as your customer service. Safe scored NONE today. Respect should not be optional. read more

This store is in a bit nicer area. Not great but nicer than the Bremerton store. The one thing I don't like about this store is many of the products I have found to be almost expired. I was buying BBQ sauce and when I found the date on several bottles one was going to be expired in less than a month. I brought this to the attention of an employee they they didn't think it was a problem. So I do believe they have a problem with employees not caring there and their four you better check the quality before you buy. I found almost expired date also on mayonnaise too. read more

When this place was open I loved shopping here it has now been sold /converted to a Haggens and the prices have gone up. Bummer. Many of the old employees stayed but there are new ones I don't recognize in there now. The overall feel of the store is a less cluttered appearance - a much cleaner and more simple style. I do miss our old Safeway. I have heard that Haggens pays thier employees better than Safeway did so that I do like. I am giving the 5 stars to the old Safeway that was here. read more

Decent organic produce, some prices are lower than Fred Meyer. Shelves are always stocked. BUT I don't like shopping here because they never seem to staff the checkout lanes. I have been going there for a year, and have never seen more than 2 lanes open, which is completely annoying. Oh, and the homeless folk that hang around outside scare my kids. read more

Tuesday night 6:10 and there are ONLY 2 cashiers??? Seems like since the Super Walmart opened that this Safeway location is going down hill quickly with customer service---very disappointing. Great store, great potential but not going to make it if they lack in customer service.... read more

Great store & products. Checkers are hit an miss in kindness. Either grumpy or happy. I have experienced both.

Always know where to find things . Great produce and bakery.

The safeway bakery (Kelly) saved my baby shower today. After ordering cupcakes from Walmart a week ago I went to pick them up and realized they were not decorated at all because they didn't have the motif that I ordered over a week ago. I called the safeway bakery and she let me bring in the cupcakes and decorated them beautifully with exactly what I wanted. She was so nice and did the job in time for me to have them at the baby shower this afternoon. This is the best custo.er service I have received in a really long time! Thank you! read more

What can I say - I think their brand successfully imprinted itself on me when I was a young boy. I'm powerless to do anything other than love coming to Safeway. They mis-pronounce my name every time I check out, but I just don't care - I love this place. read more
