This store is pretty average for a Wal*Mart. Obviously it ain't Saks Fifth Avenue. Pro tip: this store has the little blue shopping baskets, but they are located on the EXIT side of the self checkout stands so you won't see them when entering. As always, if you can avoid going there on weekends, please do so. Pros: - There are lots of self-checkout stations, and the lines there are surprisingly short. - Reasonable selection of groceries in addition to general merchandise. - Convenient location near everything; walking distance from nearby residential areas and lots of other stores. - Better stocked than the Target across the street. Cons: - Aisles are too narrow; you will be constantly blocked and/or bumped into. - Unsupervised children running around all over the place, inside and out. Before I started shopping here I never understood the popularity of child leashes, but now I do. - Ringing up a 10c paper shopping bag at self-checkout needs cashier assistance; what is so hard about printing a barcode on it? - Closes unusually early (10pm). - In-store McDonalds. Unfortunately this attracts the sorts of people who eat at McDonalds. read more

Even for Walmart this one is pretty bad. If you only need a few items you either want to go really early or very late, otherwise you will be in line for 30 minutes just to buy milk for 25 cents less than the store you could just pop into. I've used this place for buying concert tickets at ticketmaster and even then the service was marginal at best. I avoid Walmart whenever possible. read more

Workers can't speak English and don't know the first thing about helping people even though it's their job. Employees don't know where anything is in the store and most of the time don't know what the item your asking about is, because they can't speak English. Items never have the correct prices on them and constantly leads to having to wait in a return line because someone can't do their job and price things correctly. Horrible service. read more

First off! I come here every time I need something cheap. So there selection of inexpensive items are great! But what makes Walmart receive a 1 star rating is due to the fact that when you wish to return an item or two.... you need to set aside at least 1 hour of your day to make a single return! So sorry Walmart your way below target in customer satisfaction! Cheers. read more

Ok, I confess, I'm guilty... I used to shop at Walmart! But come on, I was a poor student, and I lived nearby: that's a good excuse, right? Anyway, this Walmart location on a Saturday afternoon is what I imagine Hell to be like. Seriously, walking in there when it's packed with all the Mountain-View 5-kid families gives me the urge to buy a gun and kill everyone there. Very unpleasant experience... a euphemism of course. As for the store, it's just another Walmart: you know, half of the employees don't speak a word of English, the other half is completely useless when it comes to helping you find an item. The lines are long, and I always seem to end up in line right behind the coupon queen, who pulls out 25 coupons out her purse, making the check out process yet slower if that was possible. Or behind that non-English-speaking Chinese woman trying to argue with the non-English-speaking Mexican cashier that the bottle of conditioner she's buying was advertised for $2.99 and not $3.45 as the cash register says it costs. Oh and I'm not mentioning the countless times someone stole my cart in the middle of my shopping! Simply Hell. read more

The online to store pick-up at Walmart is horrible! Because of this experience, I am vowing to never buy anything online from Walmart ever again. My F got an email saying his furniture was ready for pick-up. On a Friday evening, we showed up at Walmart and gave them the slip of paper with our products, while also stating that we wanted to return the file cabinet and just take the linen cabinet. The guy comes back out with a file cabinet and we tell him no, this is what we want returned on the credit card. He says okay, goes back inside and comes back out empty-handed. "What's your last name again?" F: "A-B-C-D-E". "Okay." The guy goes back, after 10 minutes, comes out empty handed once again. There's also another customer waiting, so this poor customer, who already has his goods, has to wait till the incompetent dude named L.B. had to go search for our linen cabinet. We told L.B. to just let the guy pay for his stuff and leave, since there's no point wasting everyone's time. L.B. comes back out again, "is your last name B-C-F-G-A?" "No, it's A-B-C-D-E (at a slower pace)." After another 10-15 minutes, he comes back out saying he still can't find it and that it's probably still in the truck (unloaded). Seriously now, does it really take 30+ minutes to figure that out? Now you're thinking, why didn't you just walk away? Well, incompetent L.B. already charged this on the card and now we needed a refund, but that means we'll have to reorder again since the item is in the truck and will be sent back. We walk to the Refund section and the workers there couldn't figure out how to return an item that was charged but does not exist. Of course it's against the rules to charge a customer's card before the item is physically in it's prescence. So "genius" L.B. decides to blame the charge on poor innocent Eddy, who was supposed to be on his break at the moment. Oh, the injustice! Anyway, after a couple tries and getting the head honcho of Returns/Refunds to try it out, the money has been refunded back into the credit card. But now another dilemma is that we now wasted 45 minutes of our life waiting for an invisible item and will have to potentally order again. The next day, the F gets a phone call from Walmart asking if we really wanted to return our linen cabinet. When we asked if it was available to pick up right now, he says yes, but that he's leaving right now so we'll have to come back the next day. WTH? The next-next day, we go to Walmart, give them the slip of paper saying we want the linen cabinet. Lo and behold, it is FINALLY there! wewt ~ and it only took an entire weekend for those incompetent workers to find us the cabinet we ordered. Of course I go to corporate and file a complaint about all this... to my dismay, all they could say is they're sorry (I was hoping for a giftcard so at least I could get something in return for wasting 45+ minutes of my life on absolutely nothing). At the same time we ordered the linen cabinet, I had also ordered a desk. It was supposed to arrive by 9/28, it's currently 9/28... I wrote a complaint email (again) and still no sign of it. All I want to do is return it! So that marks another reason why I am a Target fan... read more

I like the physical store most of the time, but I have had a pretty difficult experience with their over-the-phone customer service. My boyfriend ordered a bike online and wanted to speak to the bicycle department to see if they could assemble the bike before pick up. In the past week he has called Walmart over 15 times. Sometimes the phone just rings forever and no one picks up. At other times he gets the operator, who will listen for 2 seconds and transfer him to the bicycle department, which apparently is never staffed because no one ever picks up the phone. After the phone rings for about 5 minutes, he gets transferred back to the operator. When he tries to explain that he can't reach anyone in the bicycle department, they will immediately transfer him again without listening to the rest of his sentence. It's like a never-ending cycle of being transferred back and forth again and never being able to actually speak to anyone. In the end we had to physically drive to Walmart just so we could speak with someone, and even then we weren't able to talk to anyone from the bicycle department specifically - only a customer service agent. read more

Me and the family drove from San Francisco to Walmart in Mountain View. There at 11:30 p.m. and they had closed at 11 o'clock I messed up my whole Black Friday Thanksgiving experience thank you Walmart For hopefully losing money ...Mine !!!!!! read more

Worst Walmart ever!!!! 2 check outs open and the lines are huge! I will never come back here again!

Came here for what was supposed to be a quick stop; I was on my way to adopt a kitten and needed various pet supplies. Parking isn't great, I had to park a bit farther than I would have liked while navigating around all these slow people. Once inside, I grabbed a cart, the worst cart in the entire world! The front left wheel was locked because something had tangled it, I managed to force it to the pet section before completely ditching it, at least I worked out those arm muscles... I found the few things I needed and made my way to the register only to find huge lines at EVERY single register. Fine, I'm patient, I'll wait for the 20 items or less register. A few minutes later, an employee opens up the register on the other side and takes the people right behind me! No courtesy by taking the very next person, siiiiigh, so me and my 3 items waited more. My cashier was slow and I was growing very impatient, finally got checked out and she almost forgot to give me my receipt after trying to bag the huge litter box which (I thought) obviously didn't need a bag... That wasn't even the worst part. After my whole shopping ordeal, I swiftly walked to my car to be harassed by another shopper. NO! I do NOT want to give you my name or number or anything else! This guy would not leave me alone and followed me to my car and tried to talk to me through my closed window. What part of I don't give out my information and I have to go don't you understand?! Almost ran him over on my way out. Thank god, it was daylight in a very public parking lot. I am never coming here again. read more

I'm writing my review on Eddie, the guy who assembled my 2 recent bikes that I purchased from Walmart.com. He makes sure everything is assembled correctly and he has such a positive attitude. Thank you, Eddie! read more

Every time I go in to this Walmart the money services for assistant they are always slow and never speed up. People are waiting hours to get work done. I waited 1 1/2 hours to get my work done there and they still are slow. Can't they speed up at all. One is constantly on her cell phone and it's busy. Really!!!!!! read more

This is the second times that it is so difficult to return.They can say some resean to prevent you return.Carefully！

I wish most YELPERS and Americans would RARELY Shop @ Walmart; 90% of their products are from sweat shops in Asia! This store is at least clean, however it is extremely CROWDED - You cant even get your cart through the clothing aisle's and its a tight turn in the electronics area! read more

The Walmart at McCarthy Ranch is a great store. The employees are friendly and very helpful. They alway have what I need

All I needed was a new mouse for my computer and a mini cupcake tray for my little sister. Getting into the parking lot I had anticipated that the lot would be busy and I was right, but even so, I wasn't ready for the left over carts blocking empty spaces; I can't blame the terrible parkers on Walmart, that's just being a crappy driver. Heading inside my sister and I were immediately dumbstruck at how many people were inside. This was my first time here so I thought "Wow, this place must be awesome to attract so many people." But I was wrong...oh so wrong. It was like a general walmart in that it had lots of low priced items and lots of them; however, walking around and looking for a cart was my initial dillema given that there was simply a wall of people blocking it and that once we started walking around one could not stop and wonder how the floors could be so dirty how there could be so many unattended carts left around with people wandering aimlessly through aisles. We walked around the inner perimeter and finally got to a point where it seemed like they had just run out of shelves...literally there was a 25x25ft square of simply empty space with shelves surrounding it that seemed as if they were there to help try and fill the void since they didn't belong. ie: they had bounty paper towels next to some obviously old LCD tvs. Needless to say I didn't get my mouse because I saw a better deal online, but my sister did find her cupcake tray(and it was cheap) and the lady at out checkoutstand was realyl friendly given that there looked like a mob of people trying to check out behind us. For a walmart located in such a nice area, I was disappointed with the cleanliness and this weird feeling I had the entire time I was walking around that something was total off about this walmart. read more

The employees here are rude my boyfriend and i went shopping and we were outside waiting for out neighbor who is Handicapped to help her get out of her lyft and in a cart i was helping her why he watched the cart he turned his back for a quick second and somebody stole something out of our cart in the front right under a camera so my boyfriend went inside to ask them if they could look on the camera so he went to self check out to ask the lady working there if she could call a manager she said sorry go to customer service so we did another employee should us the 2 manager's that were working there we went up to one of them in a yellow vest we explained to her what happend and she was gonna just refund us but as she was gonna refund us the lady in a blue vest who was the "manager" told her no we can't do that and to call the manager in charge he took 7 mins to get to us then the lady in the blue vest took him in the back said something to him then we told him about it and he said well sorry that happend but we can not do anything about it you would need to call the police and make a report then they can come look at the cameras all they want and he said i can ring another up for you and he did and we wasted more money to but another one i think this is bull crap cause the outside where the doors are is still their property it this happen in the parking lot then it would make more sence read more

If there was a negative star I would put it so I was shopping in yesterday which is the date of May 9, 2019 I was looking for a face wash and I am not racist by any means I then saw a African-American Walmart staff who then asked are you going to get something from behind the glass With an attitude sort of there was also a white customer beside me who wanted to get the same face wash as me she then grabbed the face wash for the white customer and gave it to her when I have been shopping here for almost over 18 years and I know that they are not supposed to give you the product you are supposed to pay the product next to the make up department she let you he customer go and as soon as she got my products out of the glass she put them in her pocket with an attitude there was another customer I don't know her race but she look like she was Indian and was getting a face wash as well she grabbed her product and even put the products inside her shopping cart and said have a good day!! She then grabbed my products slammed the on the cashier table next to the make up department! I then asked her politely what was the difference between me and the other customers as As to why she let them go with their products and I have to pay for my product at the table as if I was going to steal them with my mother there her response was "they're going to pay for it" with an attitude that was not OK she was discriminating me because I was Mexican and not only she discriminate me personally but she discriminated me with other customers around me she didn't even bother to apologize and walked away with a smirk on her face I don't know if she's been treating Hispanics like that and thinking that it's OK but is not OK and I hope management does something about this because I am not only going to review this on Yelp but I'm going to send a personal handwritten letter to the Walmart company she thought it was right with with what she was saying! I would always go to Walmart because of the prices but if I'm being treated like this I'm not gonna go there again target is LITERALLY ACROSS THE STREET And If I have to pay a couple extra bucks and not be treated like the way I did yesterday I will pay those extra bucks I would always go to Walmart because of the prices but if I'm being treated like this I'm not gonna go there again I don't think I'll ever come here again I hope that Walmart staff member gets a write up and gets talk to because that is not right most of the people that come here are Latin and Hispanic and if you're treating them like that I'm going to be there voice! read more

Oh snap - here we go. Rule of thumb with this Walmart- go when they first open which is at 7am or go 30min to an 1hour before they close. If you go duing the peek hours 9am - 6pm enter through the garden section and pay through the garden section. This is place is a mad house everyday!!! So many people and their families -dang everytime I go I feel like its a family event with others. Do you really have to bring the whole entire family of 12??? Geez. I thought I would never find a fairly decent, clean Walmart - but I did. The Walmart in Fremont which is HUUUGGGEEEE! Is a beautiful and plesant one. The aisles are always kept up, roomey and nice and when you talk to people they actually understant what you are talkigng about and help you instead of pawning you off to another assoiciate or calling someone from "what use to be the layway section" and walking off while you stand there for 30min - 1hour waiting hoping and praying to see another associate to ask them for help. FREMONT WALMART - I LOVE YOU :) read more

I hate shopping here. Customer service sucks. Store is disorganized. Parking is horrible. Takes forever to try clothes on. The person greeting you looks like he wants to kill someone. The customers that shop here are rude. They will bump into you and not appologiize. I say stay far away from this walmart. read more

The deals Walmart had during this Black Friday were excellent. I spent several hours comparing prices and offers to the ones other stores had and Walmart was the best option. Not only that, the one hour guaranteed offers made the most coveted items available to anyone -- no going home empty-handed this time. I got there at 530 pm and by 7 pm I was already done buying the electronics I wanted. Even though I could not take home all the items I bought I could still get a voucher along with the promise to get them delivered before Christmas. Walmart's great deals and amazing organization was the key to a fantastic Black Friday. read more

I am going to write this review to Walmart and Mcdonalds that's located in this Walmart in Mountain View California. This review is pertaining to the Mcdonalds inside this Walmart. I went shopping there today and I went to the Mcdonalds to order a 2 cheeseburger meal after I paid for my meal, I asked for a couple of BBQ sauces and was told I needed to pay 27cent for each,. Excuse me? Do you charge for ketchup? No? great so why charge me for the BBQ sauce, Ok so I actually swiped my credit card again for the 54 cents for the BBQ sauce How embarrassing and Ghetto is that! read more

Although my education costs $50,000, I don't want to spend $50,000 on my groceries and dormhold (get it, dormhold, household) items. WalMart is excellent for this .It has all the quips a typical WalMart has, but due to crushing all of the local businesses, it's so cheap, who can resist? A must-go to any Stanford student who doesn't come from the nouveau riche. read more

Oh my god. I hate Walmart but sometimes I can't resist stepping in this store to purchase everyday home goods for less. If you're not purchasing a bunch of things at once, I'd suggest going to your local CVS or Walgreens. Every time I come here, I dread waiting in the long lines and weaving through the crowds of families that shop here. I hate crying babies and kids throwing things around. It's the worst you can get here at Walmart. The customer service is also pretty sh*tty. My word of advice is to NEVER purchase electronics here. The employees know next to nothing about their inventory or their products. I tried to purchase the new iPad with a gift card that I received and called the night before to check if they had any in stock. The employee told me there were 12 new white iPads left. I came in the next day and found out that they never had any in stock and in fact, the employee was wrong and had mistaken the newer model for the older version. Ugh! If you manage to get through the store finding your products quickly and get through the lines... then feel free to shop at Walmart at your leisure. For now, I'll take a pass on this Walmart. read more

The worst service, ever. The fitting room lady told me I couldn't switch out clothes from the fitting room because there was a line. Keep in mind, I was already in the fitting room trying things on. She told me to get back in line, & then started knocking on my door telling me to hurry up. My first time here, & I'm never going back. This doesn't even deserve a star. read more

Nothing Special here, Everybody knows that there prices are really cheap here. This place is on the corner of showers and El Camino Real. The wait is not too long either. Go after 8pm if you don't want to wait. read more

I was so very sad to see two fish tanks with multiple dead fish! It was truly awful. If you're going to sell pets, at least take the best care of them that you can. Removing the deceased fish is a good sanitary place to start. Sad day. Also, their plant section was quite barren. They have no indoor plants, even though all of their Christmas decorations are (already!) out. Um, holly... Norfolk Pines, Poinsettia, anything? Nope, just fake black trees. But really, my point is: Please don't sell animals Walmart! read more

A few nights ago I was scammed and sadly I fell for it, however the story has a happy ending. The walmart staff working money center/returns fortunately didnt know what exactly I was instructed to buy or perhaps knew already something didnt add up and sold me a prepayed master card instead. Shortly after I payed is when it dawned on me that I might have been a scammed. I called the number on the back of the prepayed card to see if I could stop payment and the matter was remedied, effortlessly and with great speed. read more

I would like to state that I'm quite upset with the costumer service here. There was only ONE employee helping people out throughout the WHOLE electronics section. I want to say that although this is a perfect example of bad costumer service, he did his job magnificently. This bad review is directed towards the management. How could you possible leave only one person to work the entire electronics section PLUS it's cashier?! This is rather mad. PLEASE GET MORE PEOPLE ON YOUR TEAM! read more

Yep. Still two stars. Frequently a mess and things out of stock. Frequently only half the cashiers open at peak time on a weekend. What??? I've started shopping at Target instead!!! read more

I have recently moved to the peninsula area. Checking out all the high prices at the other stores for items I have continually done a good load of my shopping overthe years at Walmart. The prices are so much higher at the other stores that I will not mention on this review. It is a shame in this area there is only one Walmart available. It is well worth taking the drive to the Mountain View Walmart. Keep it up Walmart. We need good prices in America. read more

I love Walmart but this location was very messy. Most walmarts have a certain set up and was very used to that and when I came here, I could not find anything read more

Worst shopping experience of my life! Wal mart is not knowledgeable enough to sell food. Cashier took my meat out if the plastic bag and placed it into my reusable bag. When i said something he dropped my other groceries on the ground!! When i asked to speak with a manager he refused. Asked another associate and she called a manager. Waited 25 minutes and a manager never came. What a joke!!! Worst place ever!!! Go to Target across the street or Safeway. Worst walmart ever!!!!!! read more

I like this place is very convenient. Your supervisor I forgot the name is a man like 55 years old very good guy he help me. It's was Tuesday morning read more

This is the worst Walmart I've ever encountered, and as someone who grew up in rural Kansas - let me tell you, I've seen a good few. What happened here? I hate Walmart; I've seen it destroy many of the small towns I grew up around. Unfortunately, I'm also stupidly poor, so I seem to constantly end up there against my better judgement. I just can't afford to pay the prices anywhere else (have you been to Safeway lately?!?!)... That said, I avoid this store as much as possible. The parking lot is such a disaster, I have taken to parking in the Target lot across the street and crossing via the crosswalk. This technique has saved my sanity and blood pressure a lot of strain. Inside the store? Another poster mentioned claustrophobia... um, check. I feel like the guy in the Edvard Munch painting every time I go into this store. You can't even turn around half the time. My only other major complaint is the serious inability to keep anything stocked on a consistent basis. The basics are almost ALWAYS missing and you'll notice whole shelves of empty space. I suppose it's so crowded they can't get enough stuff on the shelf before the hordes descend and wipe them out again. Go here if you must. If you can afford any other option, spare yourself the depression of a visit. read more

WALMART IS TERRIBLE ! I had a terrible experience. I order a Power Wheels ride on dune buggy on line and went to pick it up at the store. What a terrible worker. The box that he brought out was all beat up, and had been taped shut. What a joke. How could they bring that out to me and think I would take it? They did try to make it right. Nothing. They wasted my time, my gas. I'm done with Walmart. Low prices are not everything, try doing the right thing ! read more

Despite the low reviews I decided to give this location a 2.5 rating. I went with someone who needed something from here. We arrived and it wasn't that crowded and found parking. Went inside, looked around and found out the prices are not that bad. I found a scarf and a little oneise that would be cute for a little one. O don't come here often, but this experience wasn't that bad. I say come and look around just because of the prices. If this location doesn't have what you need there are other locations. read more

Terrible service. Waiting currently in line. Been here about 25 mins and finally got a person to talk to for pick up and still waiting to get someone to help me with my order. I understand they are rearranging but you can't find someone to help with three people in line for picking up. Workers after workers passed us. We asked several to help us and they laughed and said we were being helped wen we weren't and walked away to finish their conversation. Ridiculous read more
