Safeway, Palo Alto CA

It's one of your smaller Safeway stores doesn't have a bakery and it doesn't have the room to stock as much as others Safeways yet they're meat and produce is always fresh and available

Not a fan. Checkout not friendly. Have just major brands there that make up the food industrial complex. Better to stay with Trader Joe's.

This is a smaller Safeway store than others in the region, so it hasn’t quite as much variety in its stock as some. Hence four stars instead of five. But it’s clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate, and the staff always courteous and helpful. It’s in a very convenient location for anyone living in Midtown or South Palo Alto, and carries all the standard products that everyone uses, plus many specialty items as well.

I ordered a sandwich at the deli and a young lady helped me. I had to tell her how to make the sandwich and she was slow. She needs retraining.

The worst Safeway I've ever been to. Many items out of stock, no music, old outdated building & not one person offered assistance on my first trip shopping here around 9am on a Wednesday. The bagger had his nose exposed from improper mask wearing while walking to his station. Numerous aisles blocked with seemingly abandoned stocking carts. If I was in a wheelchair, it would have been impossible to shop here. One employee had food on her cart, a few items fell off. She shrugged, and just kept walking with the cart leaving the items on the floor in front of me, blocking passage. Abysmal!

Nice store with lots of great items. The employees are respectful. The store is very spacious and well arranged. Highly recommended.

Great new updated wine section. Still could balance more higher end less low/medium. Great attitude of employees during pandemic. I'm grateful for their service and providing it with a smile and warm

No matter at what time you come, there is always a long line. Today only two lanes open and we are 20 people waiting.

Very convenient for all of those people in the community to shop. I love safeway! Grew up on safeway!

Pleasant store, has been here a long time but is clean and accessible. Parking can be a little challenging in tiny parking lot, but it isn't really that big a deal given the neighborhood. Check out can be pretty tedious at times given staffing.

The Palo alto are racists and they need better training on what the current laws are. They constantly harass black people in the parking lot of this Safeway.

Nice people. Long lines, typically though. And not stocked as well as other Safeway's. I prefer to drive farther to Rengstorff

It never closes and has almost everything I want. And bonus, It's the closest grocery store to where I live.

This Safeway is small and tends to be understaffed. There is no bakery area. The butcher area is also small and usually smells like it needs a good cleaning There are frequently people panhandling outside and/or bothering you to sign something.

It's Safeway. It's dusty, overpriced, with long checkout lines and rude unhelpful cashiers. Yes, this particular one is shittier than your average Safeway. But let's be honest, it's after 10 and Trader Joe's, Whole Foods and all other decent grocery stores are closed. So it's either this or the gas station mini market. Why else are you checking out this store?

This Safeway has always provided Excelence Service to me. They have been ""polite" and professional at all timess. Thank you Middlefield Ssafeway Pharmacy. Ella Herbert

This Safeway is a bit smaller than most, Less of a selection to choose from. Employees are not excited to be there and it shows. Store is clean and in a convenient location.

Lines are really long, selection isn't nearly as nice as other Safeways, staff always seems to be super stressed, and parking lot is tiny. Go out of your way to the new one on Rengstorff. It's a similar size but way nicer with a broader selection.

No one at the Deli for 10min. No one at Customer service desk for more than 5min. Cashiers seem stressed out. No a good experience. My first time at this Safeway & never again! !

It is a small Safeway and you can't always find what you need but it is close by. Often the line is long but I have never seen all the checkouts open. Maybe I always go at the busy time. The staff is very nice and friendly.
