This is about the deli and grocery part of Freddie's…read more It has been years since I've been in a Freddie's and then, to buy photo frames, not groceries. I was in Lacey and needed a simple loaf of bread so stopped here. What a nice store! The selection is huge and the deli department runs circles around other local super markets. The service and prices are very good too. I wish I lived closer to this store and could make it my regular grocery place.

Nope. Listen to what im telling you and do your job.

I need that refund asap!

In the past. My last 3 cake orders were WRONG over the last 3 months (march, April and May birthdays in my house). The first 2 were only missing the piped writing. No big deal. Which brings me to the reason i will NEVER shop there again. I ordered a 2 layer bakery cake for my son's birthday. When I ordered i specifically ordered the 2 layer cake. NOT the four layer private selections factory made garbage they presented to me at pick up. I spoke to 2 bakery employees and a manager. All who seemed less than concerned. They even tried to convince me that it was 2 layer but the tag says 4 layer for some unrelated reason. I have actual grocery/bakery experience. I know these things happen but to ignore the fact they did NOT fill my order properly was really bothersome. The lack of customer service and the outright lie to my face that these 2 cakes are the same was enough for me. I wont go out of my way to shop or order here again.

** Disclaimer: this pertains only to the sushi section of the deli **…read more I went to QFC in the small hour between hunger and resignation, when a man tells himself that food is only fuel and believes it just long enough to be disappointed. The sushi lay in the cooler, lit like something preserved rather than prepared, each roll holding its shape with the quiet desperation of a thing meant to be eaten quickly and forgotten. The rice was the first betrayal. It had taken on water and weight, swollen and slack, as though it had rained too long on a field that once held promise. Good rice resists the teeth and then yields. This rice surrendered immediately and lingered, clinging in damp clots that spoke of time and neglect. The fish arrived in modest portions, shaved thin and laid on without conviction. It was not bad fish. That was the cruelty of it. It was clean and harmless and forgettable, like a story told without danger. There was no richness, no cold brightness of the sea, only the sense that someone, somewhere, had decided this much was enough. And over everything came the spicy mayo. It was applied generously, endlessly, in a way that suggested charity rather than care. It pooled and smeared and promised heat. There was none. The sauce was pale, fat with sweetness, a soft blanket meant to hide the absence beneath it. It did not wake the tongue. It suffocated it.. I ate in silence, because there was nothing to say. When it was finished, I felt full but not fed, a condition worse than hunger. Some meals stay with you. This one passed through like a dull afternoon, leaving no mark except the knowledge that next time, I would wait.

Don't go here, go to Stewart's meats or somewhere else. We bought a big steak/meat package from…read morethis business back in January. I got loads of ground beef, ground pork, and steaks because I do so much meal prepping. We got it all frozen, probably spent well over $300. Everything in our entire order was rancid. Brown and smells absolutely god awful. I've waited many months to give them the benefit of the doubt and see if any of it was good. It was not. I even went to Stewart's meats out in Roy (where we normally buy big meat packages from) and did a test trial. Let them defrost in the fridge for a day or so. Northwest meats was brown and had a foul odor, Stewart's meats was juicy with blood and no odor at all. Conclusion made. They sold us rotten meat. Not cool for the food industry. Have some standards. That could have made someone really sick had they not known and eaten any of it.

This store is in the middle of a full renovation and reset. Beware that stuff has moved around, and they are still resetting.

Stopped by this small oriental market recently and had a pretty good experience overall. Parking…read morewas easy to find since the store is located near a few other businesses, so that was already a plus before even stepping inside. I came here to Ben Thanh with a specific mission: finding shrimp paste that I couldn't track down at another oriental market down the street. Thankfully, they had exactly what I was looking for, which immediately earned them some points in my book. It's always a relief when a place carries those harder-to-find items. While browsing the aisles, I was pleasantly surprised to spot a few other things I'd like to come back for in the future, like different varieties of rice and Chinese sausages. One thing that really caught me off guard was that they sold baklava here! I decided to give it a try and, honestly, it tasted pretty good. I didn't do a full grocery haul this time, so I can't really comment on how their prices compare, but for convenience alone it's a great little shop to have nearby. Since I live fairly close in Lacey, I can definitely see myself stopping by again to check out more of their selection. There wasn't really a line; the cashier spoke both English and Vietnamese, was polite, welcoming enough, and quick to ring me up. Overall, a nice little market that came through when I needed it.

Caters very well to southeast Asian cuisines, notably Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai. I quickly grabbed a big jar of kimchi from the cooler, a bag of jasmine rice, soy sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, and of course dehydrated shitake mushrooms. This allows you to get started with a bare bones Asian meal of rice with sides. Anyway I was well pleased with the prices. I didn't have to sift through massive choice like at H Mart, and I could get shopping done quick!

I immediately got back in my car and headed back to the store. When I arrived I spoke to the manager who was helpful and kind however I feel I need to report this. One of the employees went to the meat department to get a new package of chops. I asked the manager to open the package to make sure the chops were fresh. She opened the package and we could small they also were bad. We both went back to the meat department to find a fresh package. As she proceeded to open each package they were all bad! How could this be? They returned my money no problem but I needed chops to cook for my family's dinner so I went to Winco. I am new to the area and had decided to check the Grocery Outlet out since the price of food is so high. I was very disappointed. At Winco I was able to buy the same pork chops for $2.38 per pound and the package was only $8.40. The pork at the outlet was $3.48 per pound for rotten meat. I wonder how many unsuspecting customers brought home rotted chops and put them in the freezer for another day. If it wasn't so late in the day I would have done this. So if you recently bought chops at this store and put them in your freezer I suggest you return them because when you defrost them you will find out they are un edible This place was no bargain. They made me a loyal Winco customer. The year is 2026.

Let me put it to you this way: Need to pull off the freeway, get a healthy snack and use a clean bathroom?!? Say no more. This is the place. Go now. Do all of your shopping here. Plan ahead.

We purchased some cheeses, crackers, yogurts, falafel wraps, and miscellaneous snacks. I was hoping to get some baked goods as well but everything looked dry and stale. The prices were higher then we would pay elsewhere but that is to be expected. What wasn't expected was the flavor and quality of the items we purchased. We were very disappointed. It is important to support local but the payoff for the higher prices is typically higher quality and better service and unfortunately that was not our experience here.
