Safeway

I don't know how this location has a 4.1 rating. It's probably from older reviews. I will mention the rudest, nastiest employee I've ever encountered at a Safeway - April. This location is now overrun by homeless drug addicts that Olympia moved into the forme Hawk's Prairie Day's Inn motel, and now it's called Maple Court, and that cost taxpayers 24 million dollars. Crime is out of control. Surveillance systems in every parking lot. The prices here are higher than every grocery store in the area. Almost never anything on sale anymore. The store is dirty, and they have two bathrooms in the Starbucks area that are used frequently for drug use or employees that are too lazy to use the employee restrooms. I don't know who uses the unlocked restrooms more. Drug addicts or employees. Super high employee turnover. Diminished quality. Price gouging. Do not shop here. Go to Costco or WinCo.

Not the best area. But The Deli hot food was good

Most of the Safeway pharmacies give great customer service. The Marvin Road store did not today. They were out of the RX I needed, which I understand. It was how they treated me which was the problem. They did not say hello, no eye contact, demanded information like a robot, told me they were out. Call another store. Which I did. The other store really wanted to talk to them, but again, robotic behavior. Nothing humanizing. Its demoralizing to be treated like nothing. The other store was nice on the phone, I could tell they were busy but they still were cordial. I am sure the staff dont care about this review either. Too bad. We are all here because we are people and matter.

All of the Safeways have new carts. They only work in a area of the store parking lot. If you go out of the range it locks up. It starts beeping really loud to warn you before, so you can back up into the working area. Better security system's in the parking lots. I feel safer going shopping. Just wish they had more people working at the cash register, so many people need jobs, and there's mostly self check outs.

Went to buy a cake for my mom's birthday. Bakery is supposed to be open until 7. Asked multiple employees and found out bakery staff went home early at 6. That's fine but NO ONE could open the bakery case to grab a cake for us. We didn't want anything special, just a cake as it was already made. I can't believe there wasn't a single person there who could put a cake in a box. My kids were excited to pick it out, but unfortunately I have to come back without them now, because we need it in the morning. Honestly it's just ridiculous that you can't get a cake anytime they are open, but the fact that they can just randomly close early with no one to just put a ready made cake in a box is INSANE.
