I was on the way home from Southern California and needed gas so I stopped by Walker Country Store…read more The gas prices were considerably cheaper and that was good since it was in a small town. You would have to pre-pay for gas inside the store which was no big deal. I was pleasantly surprised on how clean and organized the store was. The restrooms were very clean and that was surprising since many people would stop by. The staff was friendly and was practicing COVID safety precautions. There is also a place for food that I will need to try out the next time I am there! I would definitely make sure I stop by for gas or snacks the next time I drive up or down the highway!

I just reread my review from 10 years of visiting this Safeway on our way to Vegas, and nothing has…read morechanged. First, everybody we bump into at this Safeway is nice. The store was well presented, featured a nice variety of fresh fruit and vegetables and being just three days before Christmas, the place was jumping yet organized and friendly. On this occasion, we were able to use the bathroom, as we've been doing for the last 15 to 20 years and purchase some snacks. My wife chose some apples and cheese that we shared in the car, as well as some candy. As we checked out, the cashier asked if we wanted to contribute to the local food bank, and we would not even have known had she not mentioned it. It was our pleasure to contribute. So, should you find yourself in Hawthorne Nevada, needing to use the restroom, the Safeway is a good bet to meet your needs. We never hesitate to go here and we'll be back.

Great selection and friendly employees. Prices seemed a little high on some items, but that's to be expected at a retail store in the middle of almost nowhere. We went up and down the aisles, stretching our legs and seeing what they had to offer. The deli area had some great refrigerated offerings and even some hot dishes and whole chickens. Everything smelled fantastic. In the end, we found some small gifts for friends - we do shopping for birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays all the yearlong wherever we go. Found some great road snacks, too. Some lunch meat circles including salami, Ritz crackers, Lay's BBQ potato chips, etc. Added bonus - they had customer restrooms in the back of the store. Clean and fully stocked. We still had aways to travel and this stop really reenergized us and helped us push through to our destination. We will definitely add this to our Mesa to Reno checklist and remember to drop in on our next visit to northern Nevada.

I would defiantly recommend stopping here.

I was super excited to see that they offer hot food so it was a huge disappointment to order a cheeseburger and later realize that they undercooked it without letting me know in advance or giving me an option for them to cook it longer. Not everyone likes pink or in my case extremely pink barely cooked hamburger. I could have handled a little pink (even if I don't prefer it), but my burger ended up getting thrown away after 2 bites because I was grossed out how undercooked it was, and I didn't have a way to finish cooking it myself. I understand that it takes a while to cook everyone's food and I was more than willing to wait so I don't understand why the staff felt the need to rush and feed undercooked meat to customers. I definitely won't order a burger from there again because I don't feel that the customer should have to tell a business what proper cooked hamburger meat is, and they also have no warnings anywhere that their meat is undercooked. If they even read these reviews, according to Google, "consuming undercooked ground beef can harbor bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, and Campylobacter, which can cause foodborne illnesses (food poisoning)." Hopefully whoever has their food handling license and is cooking the food understands the risks they are putting their customers through.

At 7:01, an announcement came on saying the store had been closed for one minute and to head to the register. Totally fair. I needed one more thing from produce so I hurried- another announcement at 7:02 said to "stop shopping- we are closed" I grabbed my last item and went up front. By 7:03, I was already being checked out. And yet the reaction from staff was... unbelievable. There were several employees standing at the front just staring at me--clearly irritated, like I'd personally ruined their evening. It was three minutes past closing. Not 30. Not 15. Three. Then it somehow got worse. They were out of bags (understandable), so I asked if I could use the hand basket to carry my items to my car, which was literally parked right in front of the doors to the store. I was told no, "these baskets cant leave the store"--and that I needed to go outside and get a cart instead. So I had to run out, grab a cart, and come back in... while the entire staff stood there watching me. There must have been 6 or 7 employees glaring at me with dirty looks like I had insulted them personally. The older checker was grumpy and rude, but honestly the whole team contributed to making the experience feel hostile and unwelcoming. I completely understand wanting to close on time. But if ringing someone up at 7:03 feels like a crisis to your staff, that's a management issue--not a customer problem. Also- why not sell reusable bags if you run out of bags so often? I would have bought one to make it faster for me to exit the store. Seems like a simple solution to avoid the extreme stress your staff is experiencing
