I used this pharmacy for five years, with nothing but problems every month. My insurance wouldn't allow me to use any other pharmacy except mail order, being much worse than this pharmacy. Every month I would order refills for my medications and I would be told I filled them somewhere else, my physician had not authorized the refill(s), or they couldn't refill medications when I was completely out because they were too soon to refill. I worked in the Pharmacy industry for many years, so I do know what I am talking about. I shouldn't have to call my physician's nurse to find out the refill request was sent days earlier, even multiple times to make sure I received my medications. I would contact the pharmacy, they would say my meds were filled somewhere else and accuse me of wrongdoing. I finally told my physician I was calling the police to find out who refilled my meds, then calling the pharmacy to notify them I would contact the police as well. Miraculously, they (the pharmacy) would find my prescriptions, apologize, and let me know I would have them ready within the hour. In the middle of all this I was battling a crippling seizure disorder which made me unable to work and I was on "Obamacare." Some of their pharmacy plans limit you to certain pharmacies, which was extremely frustrating on my part. Now that I have Medicare and Medicaid due to not being able to work anymore, I have a choice of pharmacies to use. Not this one, ever again. read more

My daughter and I stopped at a Fred Meyer that is not our usual location, and the experience was disappointing overall. When we reached the produce section, there was very little produce available (no bananas at all, very sparse selection) and what was there did not look well maintained. There were spills on the floor that had not been cleaned up, which made the area feel messy and neglected. I understand that inventory issues can happen, so that part alone would not have bothered me too much. Checkout was where things really fell apart. We waited a very long time in line (all the lines were back into the aisles), and when we were finally helped, the cashier, a very sweet older gentleman who clearly seemed to be having a rough day, rang up our groceries only for the payment keypad to freeze and stop working. He became flustered, and we were moved to another register. It was uncomfortable to watch him try to get help from a manager who appeared annoyed rather than supportive. Overall, the store felt unorganized and dirty, and the whole experience was stressful. I genuinely feel bad for the employees, as it did not seem like they were being set up for success. If you have the option, I would recommend choosing a different Fred Meyer location. read more

You can't come to Washington and not go to the famous Fred Meyer. Staff: Gage was the one employee that we encountered at self check out. He was very nice and helpful. Definitely think he's doing a great job. Quality/Quantity: The store has literally everything you can imagine. It has food, clothes, camping, gear, beds, lights, everything. It is truly a remarkable store that I've always enjoyed visiting when coming to Washington. Value: It seems like there are a really good prices here from the foods to the goods. Saw a really cool T-shirt that was on clearance for 50% off. However, be sure you have a membership as it is not 50% off without a membership. Overall: Big fan of the store always have been always will be. If you're in the Washington area be sure to visit. read more

This is one of the larger Fred Meyer's. I was really hoping for some new PJ pants so I popped my head in here. There were signs about the faux-police checking receipts, but they didn't appear to be actually doing it at the time so I proceeded in. Fred Meyer has all the things that you'd expect to find at a grocery store and then some since it has several departments for all of your needs. Being a larger store they have a good selection of products. Use the store card to get the savings. No complaints on my most recent trip, as long as they stop pretending to be a private club I might put Freddy's back into my weekly shopping rotation. read more

Large 'everything' store in Bellevue. Fred Meyer for us in the Midwest meant the jewelry store, but here in the Pacific Northwest represents a Super Target like place where both department store items and grocery items can be purchased. We needed to get new Orca transit cards to ride the buses (we had forgot ours at home, and they don't offer the mobile way yet). One can purchase that from the Customer Service desk at the front, which took a LONG time. Everyone was pleasant, but because one of the associates was dealing with something with a customer that seemed to be taking forever, one manager had to man one of the stations while also racing around to help others. It actually gave me time to pick up some cold medicine, and the line had barely moved while I was gone. I'm not sure what Fred Meyer is classified as, from a credit card rewards perspective. Per reddit, it can be grocery or wholesale club. I guess I will find out once my transaction posts. read more

FM got me used to paying 6.99 for diet pepsi and dr pepper even thought i can get it for less at WinCo. Last month I went in and their sign says buy 2 get 1 free, but now they are priced at around $10.90/ea. I picked up 1 and at the cashier was told that I now have to pay $10.90 if I only buy one. It's really disappointing when they screw over their customers like this. read more

This Fred Meyer was remodeled, seemingly not that long ago, but it is already starting to look old and tired. It is always dim inside. The lights don't reflect well. I never want to stay long, which is not good as a shopper. This location is near many restaurants. I tend to stop by during the weekends. I find the sale items, maybe 60% of the time. Inventory doesn't always last through the weekend. No comment on staff because I don't see any. Many of the areas that normally have staff are closed at after-dinner hours - deli, bakery, seafood, etc. The cashier lines are almost always longer, so I self check-out instead. I don't dislike this store. But I have no reason to like anything, either. read more

This Fred Meyer is great because they have all the department store items as well as the grocery store obviously It always seems very well organized and clean but the parking lot is just really hard to navigate for some reason and it's always very very very busy So if that doesn't bother you, it's a great place to go. read more

UPDATE APRIL 28, 2023: Hooray! I'm happy to announce that effective April 11, 2023, Fred Meyer (in Bellevue at least), by popular demand, now takes mobile pay (Apple Pay and Google pay). No more having to dig my credit card out of my wallet! It pays to keep asking cashiers who tell you they don't accept mobile pay "when are you going to get mobile pay?" read more

This Fred Meyer is the worst of all that I've been shopping for. It's a huge store. But, when it's time to check out, it's only 2 cashiers working with in the cash register in fact there's a lot of checking out registered station but no one there and the self checkout was full of people and more people lined up waiting for their turns including me with my client who came with me shopping. So with this experience, I'll never come back again on this location unless they will hire more cashiers. I've never seen like these!! Why having a big store and can't accommodate enough the customers. We just can't wait the long line all day waiting for our turned to check out it wasn't a good system at all. I loved and missed the old system before 10 years ago. Everything changed!!! read more

Absolutely awful service. We were denied the purchase of alcohol even though we are both of age, could prove such and weren't intoxicated. Kim (store manager on duty) was extremely disrespectful and allowed an associate to profile us and attempted to cover for her negative behavior. This store is a complete waste of time. I don't recommend shopping at this center. read more

Is it a grocery store or a Department Store? I ask this because they have many different items you can find in this store. It has food, health and beauty, home essentials, and pet items. Oh by the way there is a fine jewelry and clothing department. It's a one stop shop. I apologize no photos available! read more

Clean and organized superstore with great employees. We came on a sunday afternoon so it was quite busy and a little crowded, but we were able to find everything we needed and more and were in and out within 30 minutes. The butcher was super kind and everything was fresh. He helped us right away and was friendly making sure we found what we were looking for. They also have a great bulk section which we loved as we got a bunch of fresh nuts. The cashiers were so efficient especially Jasmeet who helped us check out quickly and found the plu codes efficiently for our items despite the fact we forgot to write them down. They also have lots of fresh foods as well as a jewlery store that is priced very reasonably and a huge household/ clothing selection. Overall, we love this fred meyers and are always impressed with their service and efficiency even on busy weekends. Weekdays are also great for good deals and great finds. read more

Fred Meyer - Grocery Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

The pharmacy staff at this location NEVER have my prescription (ONE PRESCRIPTION) ready, even though I use the Fred Meyer app four to five days in advance to make sure it shows up in the queue on the day it can be refilled. Several times, I had to call my doctor's office to make sure they authorized the refill(s), only to be told it hasn't been faxed over. I go to the app, MyChart, which verified the prescription had been sent over ten days ago, and they say they don't have it. I understand working in a pharmacy is busy ALL THE TIME. I worked for several retail pharmacies, including Kroger pharmacies, so I am aware of the workflow and how to get all of the prescriptions filled and dispensed over an eight hour workday. Regrettably, my insurance only uses Kroger Pharmacies, so I get stuck in this maddening chaos of calling the pharmacy, using their app, and verifying my prescription was faxed and/or called over from my doctor. The customer service from the pharmacy manager, pharmacists, and other pharmacy employees is lackluster at best, as they can be rude when they find out they were wrong, and the prescription HAD BEEN SENT OVER IN THE FIRST PLACE. This is insipid. Something has to change. Going through this EVERY MONTH is ridiculous. read more

Loved coming here the first year after the big remodel. Now I am unable to come here and shop. I am disabled. For 3 years now, every time I try to shop (about once every 6 months)-- the electric shopping carts are BROKEN or not charged up. I guess Fred is so busy, they don't care about my $$$ and if I shop there or not... so be it. But I am NOT able to shop there without an electric cart. Will never try to come here again.. they apparently do not care about handicapped shoppers! read more

Terrible service with coinstar and their employees They took $97 worth of my coins and I never got my money's worth. When we exchanged our coins and they brought the receipt to the counter, they told us to comeback on another day instead of giving us our money immediately. I went back in a few days later, they told me they couldn't give me my money back because I didn't change it on the same day even though they told me to come back later. They then told us to call their customer service number but hung up on my call after a few minutes. what kind of scam is this?! read more

I love this store! Everyone is helpful! Same guy who collects carts car side, to deliver you a cart before you enter store, to wait to do final trash dump while nature is insisting to use BR.

This review is for George, the Fred Meyer worker who gathered the grocery shopping carts in the rain today at noon, Tuesday, Jan. 2. My husband and I shop groceries here once a week, and we watched how the workers gather the shopping carts. Today we met George who is extremely diligent in gathering the shopping carts in the rain. He is also friendly with customers. On our way out, we watched him helping an elderly lady carrying groceries out. GEORGE IS A KEEPER! read more

When is okay for a store cashier to threaten a senior citizen? I was in the store yesterday morning and realized that it was senior discount day. I am a senior citizen and told the cashier twice to include the discount. He rang up my purchases and I asked if he gave me the discount. He said no. I asked him why because I told him twice that I was a senior. He then replied in a very aggressive manner, "What do you want me to do about it!" While he was yelling at me, he very aggressively came towards me. I asked his name, He yelled that his name is Eddie and said do you want to take a picture! I have been shopping there for 30 years and will never go back. I talked with a manager and customer service about it. All the said is that they will talk with him. That guy is a threat to customers and needs to be fired! read more

I love this Fred Meyer location for a variety of reasons. The location works great for me as it is close to my office and while I live in Seattle (close to the 90 ramp), I still come here as my "go-to" grocery store. In a normal environment where there is no "Stay at Home" order, you can get a good hot lunch and a well positioned dining area. While I haven't tried having a drink at the bar, it's on my list to do. The Starbucks inside is great because there's a dedicated dining area unlike some stores where it is an "order and go" style. I'm a fan of Fred Meyer in general and especially over the Safeway that's near by. I couldn't recommend it more. read more

I usually hit FM as a fallback when I can't find stuff in my usual places. I like that they have a vast variety of items, not only groceries. Aside from the usual day to day items, I bought a few other "specialized" things and I appreciate that I could find those here. Example I bought a decent youth bicycle, the Bundt cake pan I was looking for, drying racks for pastries, home organization containers, some automotive stuff, and more. I never visited the gardening area, but it looks interesting. All in all I like it, it's very convenient for me location wise, it has an ample parking lot, and it is a really big store. read more

Today I visited Fred Meyer after its remodel and was blown away. The store exceeded my expectations with large selections of items to choose from, great prices, and super friendly employees. This experience was completely different than the one I had two years back, prior to its remodel. The store was incredibly clean and well-kept. I was impressed with its large alcohol section and counter where I saw people casually sipping on beer. Wow, in a Fred Meyer?? The meat and seafood employees were very helpful and attentive as soon as I approached the counter. When I had a question, an employee walked with me to help me find the item I was looking for, rather than just telling me which aisle to find it in. There was no line to check-out with a surplus of cashiers waiting to help the next customer, and everyone had a smiling face. Even though I love the Fred Meyer in Kirkland, I think Bellevue just one-upped it. read more

After a nearly yearlong renovation, the Bellevue Fred Meyer reopened two weeks ago. The store added 13,000 square feet of floor space and the grocery section has been greatly expanded. If you have been to this Fred Meyer before the renovation, you will be wowed at the remarkable transformation. It had better be wow if you spend $22 million on the upgrade. The layout of the store has been changed quite a bit. Apparel is still on the left side of the store, but electronics has moved to the south wing as well. Grocery selection is definitely larger than before. There is now a Murray's Cheese counter and a growler station in store. The deli selection has a lot more offerings. There is fried chicken, pizza and sushi among the dining options. Convenient option for Microsoft workers during lunchtime. The store also carries more upscale items than before. Items that you would usually only find at the downtown Bellevue QFC can be found here now. The meat/seafood counter and bakery also offer a larger assortment of items before. There are fresh loaves of artisan bread. And they even have poke here now, though the taste was a bit disappointing as the texture wasn't so good compared with the poke offerings at Metropolitan Market and Uwajimaya. But what really has me coming back to Fred Meyer are their prices. The everyday prices are better here than shopping at QFC or Safeway. Though the store was upgraded, it is nice to know that the grocery prices are just as good as before. And since the store is still in grand opening celebration mode, they have been offering a lot of good deals. With new stores like New Seasons Market on Mercer Island, the Metropolitan Market in Sammamish and the Redmond Costco while Fred Meyer was under renovation, this refresh is a much needed upgrade to keep the store competitive in the increasingly crowded grocery wars on the Eastside. read more

I usually wouldn't write a review for a grocery store, but I feel the need because what I've experienced on three separate occasions is super unacceptable and I am really frustrated. The first time, I bought an apricot jam that had already been opened with some mildew/mold growing on top. I threw it away and thought to myself "ok-that's kind of my fault for not noticing that" and made sure I started paying attention to the lids on jars. The second time, I bought a Sabra hummus & pretzel snacker and the side with pretzels had already been opened, more than half of the pretzels were gone, and they were all stale. Honestly it looked like someone ate from it. The third time truly just sent me over the edge. Today I went to enjoy my Starbucks iced coffee that I bought while grocery shopping last week, and looked at the bottle to see that it had expired 2 MONTHS AGO! I understand that it's also my responsibility to check the expiration dates for things, however I really shouldn't have to do that when I'm grocery shopping. I should be able to trust that the store is restocking their shelves often enough... This location Fred Meyer does not value its customers if this is the type of store they run. read more

Fred Meyer - Grocery Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Back in the Before Times, I'd hardly ever been to this Fred Meyer. But during COVID-19, this location has turned into a standby for grocery curbside pickup. So this is a review primarily of their pickup service. Their website is a little clunky, but works pretty well for searching and adding items to your cart. I've been impressed by the variety of items that are available, both on the grocery side and housewares side. The wine selection is pretty good and easy to order as well. Meat and produce are the trickiest things to order. About half the time, I get produce that's WAY underripe, bizarrely small/large, damaged, or otherwise not something a normal shopper would ever pick out for themselves. The website is confusing because it lists produce prices by the pound, but if you ask for a quantity of one, you get one PIECE. An employee told me that you can use the notes section to request something specific, but that hasn't worked when I've tried it, so I just accept that the produce isn't the best. Once you have what you want, you reserve a day/time and place your order, although -- annoyingly -- you don't get charged until the day you pick up. This matters because often you'll see a sale price, but the price changes before your pickup day, so you get charged more. This has happened regardless of the pickup day, so it seems a little sketchy -- it's not like prices always change on a Sunday or whatever. And you don't get a chance to review the prices of items in your order when you pick up. This is the most frustrating part of the process, and I wish they'd charge you when you place your order so you know how much you're paying! The actual pickup, though, is pretty straightforward. You can let them know when you're on your way via the site, and when you arrive, you update it with your parking space. We usually only wait a few minutes for our order to come out (and you can tell they're always busy and working hard). They give you a printout showing any substitutions or items they were out of, and you can approve or reject these before the order is final. (However, you don't get to see the prices of regular items; that's all on their handheld device.) You can even give them coupons if you have any. Then they process your order, load the items in the trunk, and you're on your way. To be clear, the problems with the process are mostly with the website and ordering system, not the employees, who are prompt and friendly (despite having to go in and out of the winter weather all day). Overall, curbside pickup is pretty good, and I love not having to go inside a crowded grocery store for an extended period of time. If that means getting bruised tomatoes and green bananas, so be it! read more

Went there to buy some balloons. We waited at the balloon customer service desk and no one was there. We asked customer service to please call someone to help us with buying balloons. We waited for 25 minutes and asked the customer service desk 4 times for someone to help us have some balloons blown up and no one ever came. We finally left and went to Safeway across the street. read more

I was waiting to write this review because I hoped they would send a notification to customers regarding the following or a recall or something. Unfortunately, they didn't. I don't know how they are supposed to do things but I was wondering something more transparent because I have always looked at them as my supermarket :) About 6 months ago, I discovered a very nasty long round worm in one of my thin carne asada. I took it there the very next day as soon as I felt better because after that, it took some hours. I tried to be very discreet and talked to the representative, manager, and meat Department. They were super attentive and comprehensive about the situation. They even told me this happened with seafood but not that many with beef. They gave me only a 20 gift card. Not even the medication I had to take as a preventive. I felt the need of letting them know that part of the meat might have been compromised but didn't hear anymore. I just recommend to check your stuff and ask about the procedure because I thought it was fresh but after seeing a little more, some of the seafood is frozen and they take it out when selling. So I wouldn't know if re-frozen it would be a good advice. I still rate it with 4 because of the service, and the stuff offered. But they should try improving this a bit. They also have a good wine variety. They should continue with tastings ;) read more

Quite possibly the worst customer service I have experienced. Went in to quickly pick up a pair of wireless headphones. Took card to desk, 10 minutes of searching at the register followed by another 10 minutes of searching in the stock room. Could not be found, asked to settle for different color. Then the sale price advertised did not ring up. Salesperson offered to match price, had to wait another 10 minutes for a manager to override. Additional salesperson kept complaining they were short staffed an untrained. Won't be back. read more

Thorough COVID to now, the service industry has declined both in quality service and staffing, leading to less than stellar experiences in grocery stores, sandwich shops, and pharmacies.

Also to my surprise everything was still there. Really honest group of employees. Thankful to the entire staff read more

Best supermarkets sushi&rolls!!! I normally dislike Japanese food from supermarkets. I have tried many sushi&rolls from QFC, Albertsons , and Safeway and never liked them. The rice often dries and sticks together, almost like sticky rice. The taste was always bland. Every time I got them for my kids, they will leave almost everything on the table. The rolls here were very flavorful and the rice was very soft. I love the one with crispy onion on top and the one with avocado and hot sauce. Everything in their freeze look beautiful and fresh. I even like it more than some restaurants like Tokyo, blue C, sushi roll roll roll, and Sushimaru. I usually don't shop here because it's far from my house and I don't need anything particularly from this store. From now on, I will go in there every time I'm in the area just for buying those sushi home. Tip: There is a big seating area and very good soda machine there. Many flavors of Coke Zero. read more

Bullshit*t now, they changed hours to 7am to 10pm. No more opening at 6am. What a bunch of sh*t.

Have always appreciated FM for the variety of items offered. That's been dialed back a bit it recent years, but still my go-to for many needs. The produce section has most everything you need, even to many ethnic-specific items. Just yesterday found some nice fennel bulbs I couldn't find at Safeway or Asian markets. Meat and Seafood departments typically well-stocked, and frequently offer good deals--Just picked up a 2-lb. bag of colossal shrimp for $14! Bakery offers a wide variety of rolls and breads, but I frequently find that stock is low or nonexistent. Specialty cheese section as good as Whole Foods at lower cost. Nice Asian deli area provides ready to eat sushi and noodles,; pizza and sandwich counters look good too, but I've never tried them. A few comments: I frequently find items don't ring up at advertised or posted prices, but are cheerfully rectified at Customer Service. Customer Service is often slow and understaffed for the range of services they provide. Garden area has been dialed back a bit (when in season) from what it was before the remodel; I'd like to see more stock and variety, but I guess I just got spoiled. They used to carry a large variety of Proven Winner plants at good prices, especially several Supertunia and Superbell varieties. Also many more veggie start varieties were offered in years past. All in all a good source for your varied needs, with room for improvement. read more
