    Amazing place to eat and buy. Owners walk around the store helping customers. The store is beautiful, I wish it was closer to my house.

    It has been over one year since my wife and I last visited the Safeway in Stony Plain. We had…read moremoved my business to Spruce Grove due to problems mentioned in a previous review. Recently I had heard about some management changes so I thought I'd give them another try. My visit today has pretty much insured I will NEVER VISIT AGAIN. The person managing the self check-out registers was someone I had previously complained about to store management. While running items over the scanner I paused to find the code for cheese bagels. As I was pondering which button to press, the lady managing the self check-outs came up and started punching buttons. When I asked her to please not do that she became belligerent and explained that the registers were HER PROPERTY. Having formerly been an instructor for computer classes, I find it extremely annoying (not to mention incredibly rude) when someone just takes over the computer I am using without asking permission to do so. Being rude with a customer is simply unacceptable. I mentioned my concerns to the lady at the Customer Service desk who respnoded with a blank stare. Previously I have written to both Safeway and store management and have not received a reply. E-mails to Safeway always get a standard, "we're sorry..." bs reply. Safeway Spruce Grove, on the other hand, has been wonderful.

I asked their rep at the floral counter if she could put three small bouquets in a vase for me as I couldn't go home and cut them and pour the water myself. She advised me that the prices of the flowers would be double if she did that, but the vase would be regular price. That is highway robbery. I expected to maybe pay a $5 surcharge for labour to trim the flowers and fill the vase with water. MAYBE. But for $25 worth of flowers to suddenly cost me $50 plus the vase?! Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. I prefer to do my shopping elsewhere now.

    Love this place. It is bright. Clean. Spacious. Full of interesting products. They also have…read morespecial added touches - free ice cream and fruit for kids, sometimes free samples, and a great organic/health section. Staff are professional and friendly. They also have amazing meat and bread. The cafe is lovely and resonable. And you can also get a beer, wine, or specialty pop as well. We went to the Ukrainian dinner and it was great for 25 bucks. We definately will be back although it is a bit of a drive. Although to be warned it is pricer than the regular grocery stores. I would say buy your staples somewhere else and grab the meat, bread, cheese, and health products here. And maybe have a nice lunch with a glass of wine. This is one of the few places where I go grocery shopping and leave more relaxed when I go in.

    I was checking out at approx. 1245 on 22AUG2026 and a cashier was told to log in by someone at the…read morefront counter as I was passing by, I remember something about "no, I need you to sign in" or something along those lines. I happened to get her line. The cashier next to us made a comment that her coworker who was helping me was going to the bathroom, my cashier responded she was told she wasn't allowed. Excuse me? After I was done, I asked the poor young lady "Are they not allowing you to use the bathroom?" her response was "Because it is busy.". I was HORRIFIED this clearly had to be an oversight. So, when I got to my truck I called and asked to speak to the manager, he identified himself as Ryan. I explained my concern for the well being of staff and he was not interested in the least. When I pointed out that I can appreciate pushing full breaks back due to an increase in customers that is one thing, but restricting staff from using the bathroom is unacceptable, if not illegal. If it isn't illegal, it is defiantly immoral. I suggested that if it was so busy that staff could not use the washroom then maybe he should be out working the cash registers or ensuring adequate staff. Again, Ryan could not care any less and I called him out on that. After I got home and before I wrote this review, I down loaded my dashcam video that has Ryan displaying his toxic attitude and looked up regulations. This doesn't fall under labour standards but it sure as hell falls under Occupational Health and Safety. According to the Government of Canada's Centre for Occupational Health and Safety 'Employers cannot impose unreasonable restrictions on access to washrooms. Any limitations, such as requiring workers to wait excessive periods, restricting access based on productivity targets, or not providing facilities close enough to work areas, may violate workplace regulations. '. So, Ryan if you are reading this keep in mind that people don't quit companies they quit bad managers, which in my opinion you are a bad manager (and human) when you are restricting your employees from using the washroom when needed. Again, if it that busy then you should be out there helping and making sure your staff are treated with respect and dignity. Who knows how long this has been going on for because young adults don't know how their rights generally and there is a power imbalance between a middle aged man and a teenaged girl. I will not be returning to this location as long as this guy is the manager.

The first few stalls on the west side of the building in front are reserved for handicapped. Big enough I can back in a crew cab pick-up truck. No curb! All flat from the parking lot to the inside of the store. For anyone in a wheelchair or even using a walker, this is a huge benefit. Someone has been very thoughtful with planning. Once inside the store I sought out the Manager. I wanted to compliment him. Instead I found a fellow in a suit from Home Office who was bagging groceries. He told me this was a new design and that he appreciated my feedback. The fact a Home Office Suit was packing groceries is a good thing. Home Office is paying attention and involved with the business. Today was part of a Grand Opening. I did later get to speak with the Store Manager who told me he has some slight changes he wants to make with regard to parking. I commented, "It's nice to see that the store manager has the ability to make those kinds of changes. Many store managers do not." The manager's response was, "Absolutely. It's my store." This is definitely not the answer you would get from some of the other chains. Today the store was well stocked and very well staffed. It was busy and lines were moving quickly. There may be slightly lower price options elsewhere but those places charge for bags and do not have quite the same attention to customer service.
