    I had come in the store upon opening at 5am . I just have one issue the lady whom works at the register upon opening never wants to give cash back and makes a very unpleasant scene . Please give this cashier enough funds to give cash back their was a lady out of gas in your parking lot she had stated to me that the cashier in the store would not give her cash from her EBT although I had a gas can and helped her out but it's really ashame due to cash back is a service safeway provides and it deprives some homeless people from taking the bus. and it's truly sad because I know safeway supports the disabled and community needs.we do not put signs on your register and make a scene and embarrass one due to just need $20 cash back it's truly sad and then she talks about everyone and I really think thats very wrong. Be professionall and empathetic to others needs your a store for a reason not to deprive the public.. This is the note you get.

    Marble cake with strawberries

    We got a birthday cake from them and it was a really good tasting cake! It was super moist and we loved that it was fresh strawberries inside. I actually thought it was going to be strawberry sauce or jam!! We got it with buttercream but I do have some things I'd change for next time. I'll be getting whipped cream even though I'm not a huge fan of either. The buttercream was good but it just got really hard after a night in the fridge. The only other bummer was that we made the purchase inline for a Mario kart cake with toys in top. We found out that they don't have any of the toys. Neither do the other 6 Safeways in the area. What???? So we had to settle at the same price for a print out Pokemon came. It still came out cute with his face but I had one sad kid that wanted the little toys. It also made for last minute running/calling around. The staff was really nice about helping us figure out what to do. We have also tried the tres leches cake at another friend's house and it was delicious! Way better than a lot of other grocery cakes!

    Can you read the fine print ? ;)

    Never park here ; there is a small sign that says when you leave the premise your vehicle will be towed immediately. Also , the premise only covers the 4 shops including Safeway and no other shops around that parking space . they tow the car if you ever happen to leave the premise for any reason and leave your car there even for few mins . I learnt this lesson after paying $$$ in towing . I spoke to Matt the property manager , morris towing company and the Santa Clara PD. None of them were helpful .

    I first spied this Safeway while pulling into the tiny, cumbersome, dangerous parking lot of the…read morenearby UPS Store. I went on to check it out because I needed a little somethin' somethin', and more than a decade later, I've been here at least twenty times and have even used its DriveUp & Go services a couple of times. For a suburban Safeway, it's on the smaller side, but it isn't small. The selection is very good for the size of the store. The parking lot can be a mess, but it's shared with other businesses, so that's not really Safeway's fault. The most annoying part of the store is familiar to supermarket goers everywhere: There's not enough room between the checkout stands and the aisles themselves, so while you're waiting to check out, you're blocking people who are trying to zigzag their way through all the aisles. But why am I focusing on the negative? The people who work here are always nice, and they always have everything I need. I often come here before I go to Costanoa; and the first time that happened, I picked up a very reliable, affordable, and lightweight flashlight from here. I've since bought at least five more flashlights from that company, although I haven't seen them here (I ordered the rest from the company website) since that first time. It can feel like a trek getting here, but I had this entire ritualized pattern that is now slightly altered because of a certain restaurant's lack of pinball machines. You probably don't know what I'm talking about, and that's fine. Oh, and when my friend Dan lived near here, which wasn't for very long, we came to stock up on pretzels and carrots before a night of Wiz-War, and I was shocked that it was the UPS Store Safeway, as I think of it--sort of. There might be another Safeway farther down Homestead Road, and that store isn't as good. I think/believe this because GPS once led me to a different Safeway, even though I had punched in Homestead Road. Speaking of the roads around here, the blocks are ridiculously long in this part of Santa Clara, so if you miss the parking lot, don't do the San Francisco right-right-right move. Just make a U-turn. I'm normally a right-right-right guy, but if you do that here, it will take you forever.

    DEBBIE "customer service" manager is extremely unprofessional, loud and RUDE!!!…read more i've rented the rug doctor pro twice from this location and i will no longer be renting it from the safeway on homestead. DEBBIE was an extremely unpleasant person to deal with when i was returning the machine, she began to nit pick and point out that the machine wasn't clean and ready for the next customer... odd because last time i rented and returned the machine there was no issue, and i was able to get my deposit back... not this time! i obviously had made sure to dump out the old solution and water, and made sure that both tanks were empty... that wasn't sufficient enough for debbie! on top of being overly aggressive and unnecessarily difficult and refusing to give me my deposit unless i took the machine home and "cleaned" it, she was speaking extremely loud and was clearly causing a spectacle, which then caused me to tell her that i didn't need her to be lecturing ME, a paying CUSTOMER, who has always frequented that location... she refused to take accountability and humble herself, and instead doubled down and continued her tirade against me, this lady is an ABHORRENT representation for safeway and i made sure to tell my family about the situation so they know to proceed with caution when at this location dear debbie, im not sure you've ever heard this before or if no one has ever told you this but your delivery is AWFUL, you're obnoxious and rude, and have an extremely negative aura about you, which makes doing any business with you unpleasant, which, i made sure to let you know to your face, that my whole interaction with you was UNPLEASANT... so enjoy the $40 deposit you so desperately needed and were dangling above my head, because i wasn't going to jump through unnecessary hoops to appease the walking contradiction "customer service" manager named DEBBIE lol

They had the usual array of nonstick pots, which don't work very well for me. They had a small but useful section for clay pots. I thought Amazon and AliExpress had overpriced clay pots, but I was wrong. These prices were significantly higher. I can only hope these are the best of the best. Checking up on 99 Ranch, I couldn't even find clay pots in there more limited kitchen utensil section. I ran across one item where knockoffs are ubiquitous. They've completely flooded AliExpress and you have to watch it with Amazon. Hankook had the authentic item and at significantly lower price than both Amazon and Aldi express. I found a tea section to be well stocked. I also recognize some of the tea brands. 99 Ranch has gone with lower cost options, but if you buy 6 ounces of tea, are you gonna be stuck with an enormous supply. Better to go with reliable brands that I have enjoyed in the past. I loved the produce section. It was nice and fresh. It also had wider selection of produce than other supermarkets. The store itself is stunning. The the aisles are spacious. The store is meticulously clean. The shelves are fully stocked. There were only about two items which were shopped out. The snack area and the frozen foods were even more interesting. It's obvious in those two sections that there were many more Korean brands. I should've tried some, but it's hard for me to resist snacks and there was a good chance that would finish the entire bag in one go. Better to skip it entirely. The parking lot for the supermarket is spacious. I had no trouble finding a spot even though I arrived in the late afternoon when everybody has gotten off work. I live about two hours away. And I am very jealous because there is no Hankook near me.

We have purchased a wok from here, twice, and they were reasonably priced (around $35 if I recall), and we got a spare lid for a reasonable price as well. They always have inexpensive produce, lots of fresh stuff. I got a bag of bok choy for $2. I think if you are looking for Asian produce, a great place to shop. They also have a lot of prepared foods, snack foods, etc. Everything is reasonably priced. They do have a large enough parking lot, and usually we park on the side to avoid the chaos.

Definitely a lot to look and and the variety is top notch with lots that are difficult to find elsewhere if you're not specifically at a European market. While checking out, I was eyeballing some of the chocolates that they had at the counter and the gentleman working was super nice enough to give my boyfriend and I some samples. Super friendly, welcoming, and giving the best grandpa vibes ever. I got some tea biscuits of various sizes and some really fun looking Garfield hazelnut wafer cookies and my boyfriend got himself some pasta and dried soups.

Love the ample parking, prime location, and how spacious it is inside. The rewards system is essentially a 1% cash back at a 1000pt cliff -- meaning you get $10 after you spend $1000 but no redemptions before that. Being a member also doesn't get you any additional discounts vs non-members. But hey it's free so it doesn't hurt. I'll always support there being more Asian grocery stores in the West Side of the South Bay. H-Mart always had that spot for me, but now it's shared. Mega Mart's marketed as a more premium store, but it does its best when they're running sales. Price between the two are pretty neck and neck. You'll spend anywhere from $70-$200 per trip cuz the small things do add up. They used to have prepped food marked off anywhere from 30-70% off in the final and early hours of the day. Now, it's an inconsistent luck of the draw. However, I've never had an issue with food quality with anything I've purchased whether it be prepped food or raw ingredients. 4/5, solid store. Hope they continue to grow and thrive as a mainstay of the community.
