The legends are true. I got a hot dog and a soda for $1.50. Also, the cashier was very quick and effective. Costco is a magical place.

Still a great Costco! They recently changed the checkout lines so that the self-checkout is closer to the exit and the employees actually help you scan instead of watching you struggle with items or say that they can only scan the larger items. I've used the optical department for years and they have switched to a QR wait system, getting rid of the little paper slips. This makes walking around the store a bit easier and eliminates wondering if you heard the right number. They also recently did a 3-day price-match for me on tires so that saved me $90! This Costco also doesn't have as many shoppers on weekdays compared to other locations so it's convenient and easy. read more

I absolutely love the produce and the items at Costco BUT the pharmacy employees cannot be ruder---it's like they go out of their way to make any pharmacy question, issue or what have more horrible than it actually is. I think that they go extremely slow on purpose so that they don't have to do their job and forget about even finding or asking about your pet's pharmacy needs. We were there yesterday and they told us that it would take 45 minutes to get our pet's medicine and I could see boxes of them right in front of me. read more

Will never return. They need a new GM and managers that actually supervise and coach their people. The morons at the front have zero business being customer facing. read more

So this is 2ce now that I go through self checkout & they have 4 employees standing around... supposedly working. But the 1st time Alex let me get through the whole order w/the exception of the last 4 items, then offered to scan w/gun the last 4!!! I asked am I not to go through the line? He said, on big orders in self checkout you have to do the majority & we just get the last little bit???!!!! There was but 2 of us in the self checkout he was just standing there, hhhmmm??? Really??!! Now this is the 2nd time Tuesday May 5th, around 1245pmish, Blown Away Once Again! 4 guys standing around and the one that stood around the register I was at (black young man) DID THE SAME THING!!! Waited until I was down to the last 6 items berries & medjool dates & offered to scan..??!!! I refused and went about my business completing the scanning and then proceeding to place everything back in my basket. Now I know Costco has a Great reputation for taking care of their employees... BUT SO SAD WHEH YOU HAVE THOSE LAZY ENTITLED FEW THAT REFUSE TO EXTEND THAT TO CUSTOMERS, WHO PAY THEIR WONDERFUL WAGES... WORK, TIME PASSES FASTER & THAT IS WWHHAATT YYYOOOUUU ARE PAID TO DO!!! DISGUSTED!!!! I can see why the rating is So LOW! read more

Good Costco. Not overly crowded on the weekdays and they have a good selection. They usually have enough check out lanes open so the wait is not long. I think this location is less busy than the Costco located on UTSA blvd. Ample parking! read more

We were able to get in and out for what we needed quickly. It was the middle of the day on a week day so that probably helped. Everyone was friendly enough and prices were comparable to other Costcos. read more

Swung into this Costco while driving on fumes from Houston... stupidly assumed it would have gas because EVERY Costco we have EVER been to has gas. NOPE! So friggin' annoying. Guess we'll have to find a gas station somewhere else. I feel like this area of San Antonio is seriously lacking gas stations. UUUUGGH read more

This review is for the tire dept only. Went today to have my tires balanced and rotated on my Ram truck. After waiting for 90 minutes, the service writer. told me that one of my lug nuts had expanded and that they had a hard time removing it and had to replace it with a new one and for me to pay for it. I said no and that Costco was the only one that had remove and rotated my tire previously. Supervisor came out and also said that the lug nuts had expanded and they can do that with age. The truck is 2 yrs old, and is park inside read more

Great associates working here. Always willing to assist. The meats are top notch! You cannot beat the rotisserie chicken!

I frequent this Costco at least 2x a month depending on the current sales. Plus you can't beat the prices on certain grocery items, produce, eggs & lamb chops. I usually find something unexpected but pleasantly surprised. Plus they have an awesome return policy. Today I came specifically for the Peet's Organic French Roast Coffee because I usually buy it at the NorCal's Costco & bring them back on the plane. Yesterday I found out they were carrying it when I was doing a Same-Day Delivery search!! That's how I can usually find what's in stock, so I don't have to make a wasted trip. I call to verify as well. I was so excited to find them here & snagged some bags as it's $16.99/2-lb. bag. I make French Press coffee with this coffee when I have time in the AM. Usually I'm brewing a Peet's Major Dickason's K-cup on most mornings as I don't have time & have to get out the door. I buy their bulk Peet's K-cups either in-store or online. I checked out other items like the step-on trash bag & bought some Vital Proteins Chocolate Collagen powder, a new flavor they're offering. Speaking of chocolate, I heard they started offering warm, chocolate chip cookies at the food court as they removed the churros which I never bought. I read reviews & just HAD TO TRY!! Boy was I not disappointed!! They're about 4.5"-5" in diameter.I t was crisp on the outside & warm with gooey chocolate chips oozing on the inside!! No weird aftertaste or anything! YUM!!! My new find & indulgence. I just finished at the gym so no shame! I'll graze on it for today. It's all about portion control. ;-) read more

As much as I love Costco, I will NEVER buy tires here again. Worst experience I've ever had. It's all nice if you just buy the tires and schedule your rotation appointments, but it's a total fail if you ever get a flat tire. I drive for a living as I am a visiting nurse. This is my second flat in less than two weeks. First time it took about 2 hrs and the service was ok. Today Its been 3 hrs with the worst service ever. I can't schedule service because I NEED my car to go to work tomorrow. I explained this to the guy and he wasn't happy about it. he still gave me attitude and I'm pretty sure he's holding my car because I refused to make an appointment and said that I'll wait. My last tires were from Discount tires and they changed my flats in less than 1 hr whenever I needed them. Never again!! read more

This Costco was amazing. I love going to Costco, but I fell across this one by accident and it was literally a blessing in disguise when I say the size of this Costco was huge. There were so many savings and so many offers and so many opportunities I honestly was just completely thrown by how great this was and let me tell you the customer service outstanding. They not only asked me if I need anything, but they walked me in the aisles asked me if there was any more assistance needed please don't hesitate to ask. They gave me their name. They told me I'll be in the section if I need anything I mean they went beyond and some. But one of the favorite things about this was honestly the value of the products because not only was it a savings and a great deal, but the fact that everything was on sale even during the moment of finding the sales. read more

This location truly has everything. I Shop here two times a month. Great deals. Good deals for Holiday. Great selection. I asked for help, and the service was amazing. The assistance and servers and cashiers for all ever so helpful I almost felt like I was the CEO and they were waiting on me and foot and now if this is a type of service they offer then yes I definitely will be coming back. Now I must say not only is the selection amazing but I felt like there are options of what to buy was larger than the usual Costco and I must say I've been to my share of Costco's. read more

I was visiting San Antonio and my hearing aid broke on the plane. Glad that it can be serviced at any Costco. Hats off to the hearing aid staff who was helpful and quick. They even offered to clean and check my other hearing aid! 15 minutes later and I'm walking out. 5 stars! BUT I did buy some items that I had to return later and the return line was only 5 deep when I got there but the two customers in front had such complicated returns/issues that I had to wait 30 minutes for my 15 second return. Don't know why Costco doesn't pull those complicated returns aside and keep the line moving. The line was 20 deep by the time I left. Sad also that people had the audacity to cut line by going through the exit and going directly to member services to do returns. 2 stars for Costco not drawing the line for such rude, entitled people. read more

I've never been to Costco and this was my first time and I wasn't very impressed with this location. I happened to see three different fights in the parking lot over parking spaces and knew this was going to be an interesting visit. There was clearly not enough spaces at 11am on a Saturday so ensure you frequent earlier than this. They have some stuff that differs from Sam's but the lack of parking really deters me from going back. Their liquor store is located on the left side of the entrance so you can purchase liquor too! At the cafe they have cheap smoothies, pizza, & hot dogs and came out fairly quick albeit being crazy busy. I only interacted with some staff that were handing out samples & they were pleasant. read more

### Mixed Feelings About My First Visit to Costco My first time at Costco left me with mixed feelings. The parking situation was horrible, making it a struggle to even get inside. However, once in, the store was fairly organized considering the huge number of people coming in and out. It's probably great for large groups and families, but I found it too crowded and overwhelming. There's just a lot going on all at once. Definitely a place for bulk shopping, but not quite my cup of tea. read more

Every employee I interacted with in the pharmacy was rude. Of all places for someone to work or have your career in, these women are the worst. They act like you are bothering them by asking for assistance with prescriptions! I'm sorry (not sorry) that I disturbed you talking with your peers. I have gone to many Costco pharmacies over the years and this one by far is full of employees who clearly don't care about helping customers and clearly not only hate their jobs but must be miserable and rotten in their lives. If I knew their names I would call them out. I will be going back for the simple fact that they are to provide ME a service and I won't be backing down from them. See you soon all you mean pharmacy techs for you to do your JOB filling my prescriptions whether you like it or not!! read more

I mean come on, I have never met a person who doesn't love Costco. The ultimate budget friendly meals EVER!! We can feed 2 adults and 4 kiddos for ~$8. That's 2 hot dogs, 2 slices of cheese pizza and 2 sodas. What a steal! It's a lunch or dinner that is delicious. The food is always hot, fresh and tasty. If you love a gooey slice of pizza this is the place. Or a perfectly steamed hot dog with a soft sesame bun, top that off with a cold soda, that's what I call a perfect lunch. BONUS: if you come during the day or during pizza making hours come grab a table by the observation windows. It is a blasts for kids and adults alike. Who can turn down a meal and a show? read more

Love Costco. This location is the best just like always horrible parking. Definitely keep always coming back.

I arrived today to do some shopping, but I also had another task to complete. I needed to make a return. However, my daughter accidentally ripped off the tag and I accidentally forgot the receipt. Much to my surprise Miriam B at the customer service desk was able to find the purchase and complete the return without a problem. In the parking lot Alex went out of his way to grab my cart car side. It was a great experience. read more

This is a very organized location. There's a great selection of items at great prices! Lines always go by quickly.

Such an eclectic mix of hard-working people. They absolutely have everything you could need.... From tires and batteries to rugs and interior finishes. We even loved all of the toys and seasonal items they have for children. When we do have the grandkids with us they always love to stop at the food court and get a large pizza or a hot dog or a soda or even a Sunday. You can't go wrong with Costco. Honestly I haven't used some of the other items like the pharmacy are the tires and section. read more

I have had more problems with Costco car batteries. They're Interstate, which is supposed to be a good brand, but maybe they make special batteries for Costco. I've stuck with them because they did full replacements, but now that they've gone to prorating, I think I need to find a more reliable product. read more

They changed their policy so you can't go into the food court without a membership, which is fine but the rudeness of the door staff on both sides (receipt checkers and entrance "ladies") was beyond unacceptable. They were so classless and rude and refused to even answer any questions - just awful behavior. I happily took my pizza order to another establishment bc we will be cancelling our membership and going to Sam's club now. read more

Costco is always busy and it's for a reason. Great deals and the food court has such good prices for good food. Not the hugest selection but the pizza is always good. To me costco sells quality items and the service is stellar. Whenever I do big grocery shopping or see random items I always feel like I get a deal. read more

I love Costco! It's always busy when I go but I get in & out of there pretty quickly. My main purchase every 2 weeks is Pelligrino cases (glass bottles) & Celsius drinks for my husband. I always end up with a lot more in my cart though. The store is clean, well organized & friendly staff. I purchase bulk for my routine items. It does same me some money. Very convenient locations. read more

I am from Texas and from a family of people who argue Sam's vs Costco, but I now live in Baltimore. In a row home. Needless to say, I cannot bulk shop (where to put everything), so I'm not a Costco member myself. My grandfather who lives in San Antonio is, and one of my jobs when visiting him (like I was last weekend) is to take him to Costco. This is his preferred Costco (he thinks it's smaller and easier to manage), and we came for a list of 10-12 items. As a non-Costco shopper, I couldn't find a thing in this store. I guess you have to be a regular to anticipate where things will be because there are no aisle signs/markers telling you the types of items on any particular aisle (probably because they couldn't - it sometimes seemed like appliances and canned goods or similar completely divergent items were located near each other). However, they had most of what he expected them to have, the customer service was good (we had to ask for help to find a few things since I was useless), and the quality of the food seemed pretty good. My biggest qualm about shopping at this store is the parking. For such massive store with such an insane crowd of people at any given time, they need a larger parking lot. My grandfather can't walk as far as I had to park, so I had to drop him off and then pick him up when we had finished shopping (there weren't very safe/easy places to park briefly to pack up groceries either). Getting in and out was kind of a mess, too. I will happily take him any time I'm visiting. But if it were just for me? I'd pass. But I know Costco is a loyalty thing and some people are just obsessed (like how there Aldi people and Trader Joes people). This seemed a little smaller maybe than others I've been in and has no gas station but does have the next door liquor store. If Costco is your thing, this location will probably do. I'd still recommend trying to find off hours to do your shopping so you can avoid the madhouse parking lot. read more

I was extremely disappointed when I was denied entry to Costco with my service animal. My cat is a fully trained service animal that assists with my medical condition, yet staff refused to allow us inside, despite ADA laws protecting service animals of all kinds. Service animals are not limited to dogs, and businesses should be properly trained on this. read more

As you can see , I am not a fan of San Antonio . Worst drivers , worst freeways . Trust me, I am not here by choice , and I will be happy when the time comes for me to leave . But fair is fair , this is the BEST COSTCO I have ever visited in my life . So clean , so organized , room to maneuver. I have been to dozens of Costcos and this one is by far the best one I have ever been to. read more

Why review a Costco? Well, this is one of the worst I've been in and it's all about the experiences I've had with the employees there. I'll start by saying after I moved from Texas to the Pacific Northwest, I had the fortune to land myself pretty much on top of Kirkland, Washington - where Costco is headquartered. I've shopped in a lot of Costcos over the years and deeply hope that they'll open a Business Costco here at some point. After coming back to Texas, I was glad to find that there is a Costco less than ten minutes from my home in San Antonio, right at 281 and 1604 - amazing, I thought. This store does not have the selection available at the UTSA location. It's like a Costco lite, often missing things I would expect a Costco to carry - Kirkland Signature brand items I've found in multiple states and other Texas Costcos. This alone wouldn't be enough for a bad review - they know their customers and perhaps Stone Oak lives on large bottles of wine and Mrs. Baird's bread and a wider selection of more basic ingredients isn't the thing here. My first bad experience here was with the tire center. They told me that they did not carry and could not order tires to fit a Ford Escape. Really? Seems like a pretty standard car. I called the UTSA location, despite it being a 25 minute drive, and they were happy to help me out. My next bad experience here was with the pharmacy. I had several prescriptions sent in and the cashier wouldn't let me pick up prescriptions for my then-11-year-old child, saying he needed to come get his inhaler himself. The pharmacist intervened and I got my prescriptions but it was a mess. The final straw, that lead me to leave a review, though? Was bad. I went in on a weekday afternoon, wearing a plain (no logos, no words) black and white tee and a pair of jeans with plain sneakers - what I'm wearing matters, because I can't spot any reason people treated me the way they did, I wasn't wearing politically charged clothing or symbols of anything beyond my standard (all plain silver, no logos/symbols) jewelry. Started with an employee having a loud conversation about how we need to "pray and vote" since some people won't just "go away" (she was *not* this nice about it) with another customer while pointedly looking at me, she wished that customer a "Blessed day" after a bit of conversation. She then all but refused to help me but I had everything I needed to get what I needed in-hand. It continued with another employee on the floor using an f-slur for LGBTQIA+ folks I haven't heard in polite company in years (though I've heard it hurled from the other side of protest and parade lines). On the floor, on the clock, in front of another employee. I got to the register and the cashier happily greeted the customer in front of me and the customer behind me, asking them if they found everything today and the only word she said to me was, "Card?" I tried to speak to the supervisor at the cash stands to help maybe clarify what was even happening - had I offended Costco somehow? Was there a kick me sign on my back? - and she said, "I'm really busy, is it important that you talk to me?" Apparently not. Given the heavy tone of that set of interactions, I called corporate. They patched me through to the UTSA store by mistake, who passed along word to someone at the Stone Oak location that assured me he'd work on it. However, I can't imagine trying to pick up certain prescriptions here, given that my hassle was generated over a standard prescription my kid's pediatrician here in Texas writes. LGBTQIA+ folks might want to shop at the UTSA location and avoid this one for comfort or safety - the hassle at the pharmacy over politics mixed with prescriptions would give me serious pause in trying to get certain kinds of medications here, especially. read more

Love Costco, but sometimes my UTSA Blvd location doesn't have items. Went up to Stone Oak location and "bingo!", found my bacon bits. Note, Stone Oak location doesn't have the quick self check-out stations, maybe they will sometime. Also not sure if they have the complementary Air / Tire Pumps. read more

I would just like to say that I was extremely disappointed at the man (John GNZ #35) that checked us out at Costco today. Even under his face mask I could tell he was agitated, impatient, and rolling his eyes at us. He even had his hands on his waist and tapping his foot at us in a "hurry up" kind of way. My mom is elderly and has dementia.She simply cannot rush. I frequent this location at least 3 times a week and have never encountered this kind of bad behavior from an employee. I am in the customer service industry and for me to take the time to write this review shows that he was really REALLY rude. I know it's hard to find good help, but trust me...John Gnz is a bad apple. This will not keep me from going to Costco, but I will avoid John at all cost... no pun intended. Please see to it that John gets extra Customer service training... and maybe some anger management counseling. read more

Their optical section is the best! I mean that with my most sincerest endorsement. I've been wearing corrective lenses for more than 40 yrs and that's a lot of pairs of glasses! The price is 4 times less than private optical places and half what I paid at VisionWorks and with the same features, 1) ultra-thin 'coz my lenses without this feature are thicker than 5 coins stacked together, 2) scratch-resistant, 3) progressive (no one will know you have the eye problem of Baby Boomers together with near-sightedness and astigmatism) , and, 4) transitions (feature you'll need if you like sun protection without having to search for another pair of shades when outdoors). Look for Michael for he gives great advice, what suits better for my face, etc, a pleasant personality, and gets you right away. Overall, they'll get your eyewear in less than a week, and they have great customer service. I'm happy to see better again and will keep going to Costco for my corrective lenses for as long as you offer this service. Thank you!!!!! read more
