Special considerations to keep in mind shopping at WinCo. Credit cards are not accepted. You bag your own purchases at checkout. Normally, I do not shop the Edmonds WinCo, but yesterday I was in the area to help out a family member. I took a tour of this giant warehouse to get the lay of the land before serious shopping. I found good buys on Franzia box wine; $15.48 for all varieties. The bulk coffee selection was HUGE! $7.99 a pound. Several organic coffees at the same price. So pleased to locate a rare variety, Guatemala Antiqua. (Starbucks sells a one-pound bag for $15.99.) The bulk bins were a curiosity. Tiny single serve Tabasco sauce $.48; kinda fun for a family member who packs a lunch. Many varieties of bulk candies individually wrapped. I did not find half & half for my coffee purchase. But there was heavy whipping cream at bargain prices. There is a special section not often seen at other grocery stores, large bags of organic and commercial grains like rice and oats at super low prices. Hello. I'm glad this store is available. With Albertsons-Safeway and Kroger merging soon consumers options are dwindling. Please patronize WinCo to help keep honest completion alive in our town. read more

So it's been awhile since I have been to WinCo and now I doubt I will ever go back. As I am loading my groceries Jo asked me not to stack anything to high. I joked and held my hand pretty high and she said no. So as I am going along still putting groceries on the belt being conscious not to stack anything Jo asks her manager if she could get nickels and dimes and then states to the manager "see people keep stacking things to high can't they see I have a broken wrist?" Like I can read her mind that she has a broken wrist. I state "do you want me to unload this and go to another checkstand?" Jo rolled her eyes and the manager just smiled making me angry. I told Jo she is being rude and I don't deserve it and that she probably shouldn't be working with a broken wrist and complaining nonstop about it to your customers. Manager just walked away I guess he didn't think it is a big deal but to me it was. I had some sodas that I asked Jo if I could help her scan and she just demanded that I put them on the belt while calling me sweetheart. I told her not to call me sweetheart. My opinion is Jo needs to not work if she is injured or do something not customer facing if she is going to complain about the injury. I spent $372 today but probably nothing ever going forward if she is not talked to about her behavior. read more

only takes debit card?!! huh. a $25 lightning charging cable? get me out of here. only saving grace about this enterprise is that it is open 24/7. read more

The cashier Terri today was so incredibly rude. I will never come here again. I have tried to give this place a chance a few times and the experience has been awful almost every time. read more

Huge store with lots of name brand products offered as well as liquor. Mostly great pricing on a lot of products. Know your products and pricing when you go, because there are some products and/or sizes that are as much or more than your other grocery chains. 24 hours allows flexible shopping time. It's akin to a warehouse store with wide aisles, but at night when stocking is going on, even those wide aisles can be filled with pallets, boxes, and employees stocking. This location is the closest to me at about 20 minutes away, but it's worth the drive for the savings I get on a list of a week's worth of needs. They cut costs by customers bagging their own groceries, and they do not accept credit cards. Only debit cards and cash. read more

This place is huge. Great prices on just about everything. Then I got to the checkout. There were only 2 lines open so, I had to wait about ten minutes. Then they told me they don't take credit cards read more

Although this place can be a bit crowded, they only take cash/debit, and the checkout lines can be long, it's worth the effort to shop here. It's absolutely shocking how much cheaper they are than QFC, FM, and Safeway. read more

Went here last night, all the self check out lines are closed. One lane open, twenty people in line, girl in front of me had a giant cart full of vegetables/fruit. Eventually I had to give up and leave. Who wants to wait forty minutes just to buy a beer and a burrito. Used to love this place, but the cashier lines are always way too long now, especially after hours. I don't want to wait forever just to buy my food. They need to hire more cashiers. read more

While driving on the I10 just East of the Coachella Valley, towing a trailer and with children in our vehicle, this Winco driver cut us off and almost ran us off the road. For big semis like this it is the driver's responsibility to make sure everyone around them are safe and this driver did the complete opposite. I normally don't post reviews but for the safety of other individuals and families on the road I would like to make Winco foods and other big food companies aware of this type of action coming from their driver employees. read more

Winco, how I adore thee. Now that I moved away from one Winco that was right across the street and live minutes away from this Winco, I feel like I have gone from coach to first class in the Winco arena. Bless the Winco gods for this location as it's a behometh of discounted groceries in a floorspace the size of Costco yet with everything still in the same organization as other Wincos. They get the prices low and keep them there as it's an employee-owned business and they don't accept credit cards. Bring cash or your debit card. Also, bring your own grocery totes and plan on bagging your own groceries; other ways they keep the prices down. They have bags, they just suck. Prices are the cheap here, cheaper than Wal Mart or any other grocery chain in the metropolis. The meat and laundry items are the same or cheaper than Costco. The bulk food items are generous in the fact you can buy candy, pasta, cereal, pet food, spices, honey, flour, gravy, and much more at a fraction of the cost since you aren't paying for the packaging or brand name. Go to their website and get coupons! Huge free parking lot! Open 24/7! There are some cons. You won't find specialty items at Winco. Their produce is limited, as well as their meat section and fish and definitely not high quality. There are few organic items or all-natural foods. However, you will get all of your pantry items and necessities here. I still end up going to other stores for specialty items and some bulk goods. All in all, convenient, great prices and can always find parking. read more

WinCo Foods - Grocery Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

While the prices here are great (which is why I gave more than one star), there are certain foods that I hesitate to buy. I don't trust the meat department as the meat never looks like it is up to par. And the store as a whole seems very dirty. But the biggest issue by far is check out. Consistently, there are only three registers open and lines that wind all the way to the back of the store. This is absurd. We shopped long enough to get a full cart (about an hour)... we stood in line to check out even longer. There is no excuse for registers being that restricted. Poor management going on here. We watched numerous people just leave their carts and walk out because the waits are so bad. Please fix this read more

I love Winco for 2 reasons, well actually 3. 1. Low prices 2. Open 24/7 3. The bulk produce!! Or I mean, the back area where you can buy how much you want! Ugg, such a life saver! Sometimes I don't want 2lbs of nuts, maybe I just want one serving? Sometimes, I don't want a whole bag of candy, I want maybe a piece or two? I don't know about you but I love having the option to choose how much I want to buy. Plus, I think it saves you a few bucks on packaging! Speaking of $, Winco is known to be cheaper and for a good reason! I enjoy shopping at Winco. Especially how convenient the hours are since sometimes I get off late from work and need to pick up something. read more

After waiting in the only open check stand for 20 minutes the woman told me they didn't have Apple Pay. I have used it there before and the website says they have it so not sure what I did wrong read more

First time at a WinCo was a success, it's like going to Costco without needing a membership. Deals are very good, got a large oven pizza for $4. Location is clean and staff for the most part are very nice. read more

This store is open 24 hours and offers a good selection of groceries at great prices. In terms of selection and size, it is on par with all of the other WinCo locations. Parking is hard due to a large number of customers visiting this place, especially on the weekends. Note that WinCo only takes debit or cash; they do not accept credit cards. read more

This store was such a good surprise for me. After Fred Meyer stopped selling bulk foods I was in a funk for quite awhile, and then some friends told me about Winco. I love that the place is worker-owned. The employees are attentive and helpful and as far as the food: the produce section is outstanding and I don't think you can find better prices in the area for fruits, veggies, and every bulk food you could ever want, from grains, flours, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, trail mixes, candy, grind your own nut butters, etc. etc. Everyday basics are priced fairly. As far as I'm concerned, this is now my favorite grocery store! read more

Gotta love WinCos! Best prices all around and delicious deli. -1 star because....why doesn't this location have freshly premade sushi like all other WinCo stores?! Ugh! Just my sushi addict bad luck. We live so close to this location and they don't provide any sushi options. The seafood section is actually super tiny overall. read more

The fresh produce were nice, and cheaper than Costco. The lines were short. We regularly come here for their great prices and good customer service. read more

Elizabeth at customer service is the most unhelpful, unknowledgeable, incompetent employee I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. 34 minutes to cash a check.... Had no idea how to work her computer. I would excuse it if she was new, I was told she'd been here for years. I would rather eat a jar of lives hornets and ebola dipping sauce than deal with her again. read more

I just got back from the Edmonds Winco where I went to customer service to buy a money order for my rent. I was treated like a crook! She wanted to see my ID even though I used a pin then she insisted to know what my money order is for! I'm very offended by her demeanor and will not be returning again. read more

This place is off the hook! I can't believe I've been taking my time to come in here ever since they opened. In my mind I had a memory of WinCo in Kent/Tukwilla I used to go to, and that place wasn't pretty blah -- cheap foods but nothing great to chose from. Now, this location has got me wanting to jump for joy. I was in an area for an appointment, and though, why not, I'll check it out, get a couple things. Well, I made a mistake skipping the shopping cart and grabbing a basket. Towards the end of my shopping, I was barely able to hold on to my heavy basket. I did have to make some choices based on the weight added to my basket, but I made a mental note of the goodies I'd get next time I make strip up here just to shop. This place has just about everything and anything you need. Think Sam's Club/Costco, but not wholesale and with an amazing selection of competing brands for every type of product. Seriously, they've got more butter and cream cheese options and varieties than I've seen at any other store. All there in one spot! Lactose free milk? You got it! 100 types of deli meats/sausages/cured meats/cheese? It's all there! I was struggling with picking the direction I wanted to go, because I did not want to miss a single thing! I also notice plenty of non-food products: picnic utensils, plates, etc; household items, cleaning supplies; birthday candles and cake decorations; and much more. The best part -- the reduces prices! I don't know how they manage to keep prices this low, after all, there is no membership fee, and the selection is way more than what you see at discount stores like Grocery Outlet. The only thing that wasn't as exciting price-wise was wine and beer. Some bottles I like to get are cheaper at the local Fred Meyers. But they do have a nice selection of wine, beer and other drinks. This location is very clean and easy to navigate. I came in on a Tuesday afternoon, and it was not busy at all. Can't wait to come back! read more

Ladies and gents, the truth about Winco: It's an amazing grocery store. It's conveniently located here in Edmonds, open 24/7, they have self-check out lines as well, always top notch clean--inside and out, great staff (very helpful and polite), so diverse. I get way more stuff for my bucks and guaranteed that if I'm not happy with any purchase, they also have their customer service desk. I've been coming here more often and am finding more goods, healthier food brands and toiletries as well. It does require some patience as this store is pretty large. But it's worth it to learn what it has to offer according to my diet, brand preferences--healthy or just the normal day to day foods. They have everything here including good choices of liquor-- a separate department away from the groceries. Do check it out. Prices are unbelievably cheaper than most places. The best time to come is very late at night when everyone's asleep or super early when everybody's still asleep. lol I love this Winco place. Sure am happy it's in my neighborhood. read more

I'm a WinCo loyalist that used to drive up to the Everett location before we got one in Edmonds. Once the Edmonds one arrived, it's been nice to have the low prices close to home, but... Pack your patience, even if you go at 2am. Every WinCo during the day is a nightmare, but this one still seems worse than normal. The front end is never staffed properly, lines easily get to be seven full carts long with no one calling for back-up, the paper bags don't have handles on them and rip incredibly easily. What got me to finally review was an attempt to return an item; the customer service person didn't speak adequate English and had to call a manager three separate times to make a simple, straightforward return. Super slow, super annoying. I'll echo those that say it's Walmart level produce... Nothing special and it goes bad quickly. I love their bulk bins, but this location is much more limited than Everett. As good as the prices are on food items, any house hold item is super expensive. It's nice to have a store where Top Foods used to be, but... I'm becoming very disenchanted with it. read more

We always shopped here. Many choices of Yogurt and milk. My children like to eat white food like milk fruit. Also cheaper than other stores.

People are friendly. Place is clean. Prices are great. My new favorite grocery I love Bang energy drink and they have it for $1.65 read more

WinCo in Edmonds usually good. People kept together near ice cream and bread section until allowed to checkout. Forced together into corner of store. Not safe during COVID. Certain aisles fenced off to funnel people. Unable to pass line to get peanut butter or jelly. I use Wal-Mart grocery pickup now. Not have issues so far. Prices close. Sorry my English is not good. read more

There are pros and cons to this place. Pros: Employee-owned enterprise. Great prices Some specialty items not many places have This particular location is huge and has tons of inventory Cons: Perishables (meat, fish, produce) mostly suck Feels like a Wal-Mart This was another supermarket for a long time, and it's on a busy intersection in a populous neighborhood. They're gonna operate a great big store here, or they're not gonna make it. The parking lot is huge, and seems to always be packed. It's kinda easy to see why. They have amazing prices, and tons of stuff. You won't find many organic or all-natural items among the perishables, probably none. But they do have a few awesome things like skirt steak already prepped for carne asada, a few other specialty items like that here and there. It has a bit of a gloomy feel to it, but you power through for bargains, especially on packaged or non-grocery things. Stuff like Tupperware containers and bbq lighters and other non-grocery kitchen things can be had for a fraction of the prices other places charge. On your way out, you almost can't believe the number on the bill, but they do cut corners here and there--your bags won't have handles, so you're carrying them up in the crooks of your arms, old-school. Bottom line, this isn't the kind of place where I'll do a lot of daily shopping for things I'm gonna cut up and cook, but it's definitely where I will fill in with pantry items and other things where I want to get smarter prices. read more

Sometimes they don't have one item need, so you adapt. Overall experience is great. Employees are hustling but will take time for a customer service. It's the only grocery chain I know of where they don't charge to get ATM cash. read more

Just had terrible customer service experience. Apparently winco is why to good to take credit. And when another employee came over and asked what was the hold up. The cashier told them they we lack the means to pay in a very demeaning tone. Ty Rebecca will never be coming back again. read more

Pros: - 24 hours - Cheap as hell - Has almost everything grocery and produce - Bulk foods section - Night staff singing Pokemon theme songs loud enough for entire store to hear Cons: - Smaller than other WinCos - Hard to push carts through aisles at night cuz they're filled with unopened boxes and crates - Quality of meats, seafood and produce are mostly on par with Walmart read more

Stopped in on a Wednesday night around 7pm... It wasn't busy although they were short cashiers at first.. I was totally impressed with the cost of items and I bought some soup that I paid $1 more for at QFC a few days ago .. The produce looked great and just rows and rows of items .. The meat and produce looked good and their toned down deli looked ok as well ... I bought some of my favorite yogurt that I always wait for sales and it was $1 for Chobani yogurt and that is their everyday price... My favorite limeade Newmans Own was actually a little more expensive then what I pay at QFC as well as fresh salad dressing and soft cheese but I guess not everything is less expensive. My friends said the reason why it's so cheap is the products are close to expiring I checked all my products and everything was normal from dairy products a few weeks to canned items some a year... My sister in law said it felt 'low income' shopping there and I didn't really understand that statement but I guess she likes spending money and the bag your own groceries and strange isles and no real glam I guess people might think that.. I will return when I need to stock up on baking supplies or soups and check out more price matching .. The store does need a little more glitz to their image in my opinion as a consumer but it works and is low cost.. Just remember they only take cash and debit and I would bring your own bags as their paper bags are lightweight and don't have handles ( and better for the environment right ?? ) :) read more

After living in Boise for a bit, Winco could have easily saved me $700-$1000 over the course of a years worth of buying food at Fred Meyer. And all the stuff is mostly the same brands, with organic and your fancy Adams peanut butter crap (which I buy). So it's a bit of drive, but guaranteed to save you loads of cash if you're up there. But you can't use a credit card. Cash or debit only, that's how they cut cost. read more

Winco, I love you and my devotion is eternal. Now that we no longer have a long distance relationship, I'm in such eternal bliss. I started going to Winco 14 years ago in Richland. Have traveled both North and South to shop, but now it's just a few miles from my home. We came on the second night they were open, and were impressed by the speed of the lines, how well-lit the whole place was and how wide the aisles were. I found the check out process smooth -- you bag your own stuff, and if you have a shopping partner, you can have them bag while you pay. There were many awesome deals there, but the bulk food section is legendary. All kinds of food, drinks, candy and even freeze dried garlic pods. Do you just need a small amount of a particular spice? No problem, you can get a tiny bit or but a crap-ton. But, remember, no sampling! We bought 4 bags of groceries for less than $50. That could never happen at Fred Meyer or Safeway. I am going to make this my regular grocery shopping location. So, if you see me at Winco, say hello! read more

I'm a standard bougie, Eastside-raised, PCC/Met Market-shopping (because Whole Foods is WAY too corporate), heirloom tomato-eating, wine-drinking, coffee-snob asshole, but I also graduated from college (with an Arts degree, no less) just after one of the greatest economic collapses in American history so, you know the drill: broke-as-a-joke, paycheck-to-paycheck, three-or-four-side-hustle life etcetera. I am here to tell you I AM IN LOVE WITH WINCO. The bulk section is magic, the clientele is real, the staff is friendly, the prices are unbeatable, and it's here for you day and night. It's worth the drive up from my overpriced apartment in Seattle where I pay more for awful coin-op laundry than electricity in any given month. Get your butt to Edmonds. Shop at WinCo. Know it. Love it. Be proud of it. read more

Love in the time of COVID: I'm a huge fan of WINCO at any time of the year but what a difference COVID has made when comparing WINCO to Safeway. On Monday the 30th I grabbed a few veggies at the Safeway on 41st but there wasn't enough cashiers to run the number of registers needed so lines of shoppers were backed up into the aisles. Everyone looked frazzled and stressed out. Today the 31st I made my usual trip to WINCO at 219th on 99 where every register was running, no lines, people smiling, people stocking shelves had the time and took the time to talk to customers. Plus, every item is cheaper than any other grocery store and unlike Walmart, WINCO doesn't treat its customers like thieves. read more

Oh me luvs Winco..... okay, it's more of a crush really..... Parking lot the size of a small airport, they need it, always a line up of carts ready to be filled, which is nice, and very helpful and friendly worker-bees, keeps me coming back. Great prices, while not a huge selection of specialty items or organic, which is fine, I basically shop here for staples. My personal favorite is the helpful staff, you can always tell who they are, often they are moving at a fast pace to keep things stocked, ask about something and they'll even walk you to the aisle and point to what you are looking for, if they have it. I also like the lay-out of the place, end-caps are full of sale items, and the aisles themselves don't get moved around on a monthly basis, the organization makes sense, as in, cat and dog food are in the same area, along with pet treats, supplies and such. Unlike some chains who move things around constantly, or they mix things up, say, sports drinks/sodas/mixers are put here and there all over the store, similar items are well placed together. Mixers are next to the beer and wine, and a smaller selection up front near the "adult beverage" area. While sports drinks, energy drinks, and fizzy water are in the similar grouping, things just seem to be laid out well. And the biggest plus of this place, is.... the aisles are nice and wide!! 2 carts, even 3 carts can pass side by side without getting your knuckles bloodied.... trust me, I know.... We used to travel to Marysville for a Winco adventure, but now I can stay close to home..... Other have mentioned, limited payment options, as in no credit cards, yes, you have to bag your own groceries, but this way when the eggs get crushed, you can only blame yourself.... lol.... read more

Love this grocery store! This location is always clean and well stocked; and the prices! The prices make me feel like I'm not being totally taken for a ride. The produce may not be on par with your local farmer's market, but it's pretty darn good. There is always an excellent deal to be found in the meat section, and they even have some bulk foods ala PCC. Bagging my own groceries doesn't bother me because a) they pass that savings on to me and b) I don't get chicken put in the same bag with my bleach (true story!). Lines can get a bit long during peak hours, earlier in the morning seems to be an ideal time to go. read more

I'll give them another shot in the future and update them if necessary. The produce was incredibly lackluster today. Like bad. Fruit flies everywhere. Many onions were moldy, most lettuce was squishy, strawberries looked abysmal, at that point I gave up on produce and decided I'd shop elsewhere. I was actually buying a lot of stuff and had to use the bathroom. I don't think businesses understand how nice it is to walk into a nice bathroom but this one was bad. It was outdated and uncomfortable to start and it was just a mess. Bare bones cleaning here, even during COVID it's blatantly obvious they don't even wipe down the stalls. Seriously gross, if anything avoid the bathrooms here. Gotta give em a slight break because they're on 99, but this is bad. I'm going to echo what some other patrons observed as well, carts didn't appear clean, if they're being wiped down it's poorly. And as other people have mentioned. The staff I encountered were all pretty unfriendly. Cold, short, not one person said have a nice day, thanks for being here, how's your night going, nothing. Having a hard time convincing myself to give this store another shot. read more

For the local stores in my area I do like WinCo the best. The store is always clean and well stocked. The best part is the prices. I find things here cheaper than even walmart. Shopping on a budget WinCo is a must. Really my only negitive is that the bags they provide do not have handles. Makes carrying a lot of bags in the door hard. read more

I wanted to check out this establishment compared to other stores in the chain. Similarities contain cheap pricing and cash only payments. When I mean cheap, I mean very reasonably for those on a budget. Here, the store was well lit aisles were well labeled. The staff were friendly and did go out if their way to assist. The bakery guys were friendly. Differences between the Kent and Everett location, it's difficult to pull our of the lot into traffic. Perhaps it was me going during rush hour. Not a big deal as this place is open 24 hours. read more
