It's the kind of place that makes you feel like every well priced item is an artisanal delight. Great free water refill. Mead can lead to a night of tears.

Help yourself to a continental coffee bar on the house for 2 bucks while admiring hand woven baskets on your right.

Employees are friendly and helpful, check-out lines usually move pretty quickly, most of the time there is ample parking, and the restrooms are clean.

This is my neighborhood Albertsons. I like it much better than the local store in my community,…read morethat's only a couple of blocks away from me. The Albertsons is about 3 miles from me. And as I said I like it, but not anywhere near much as the Safeway over in Poulsbo. I know Albertsons and Safeway are the same family, the same Corporation, and such. However, the Safeway produce is just beautiful, and Albertsons is severely lacking in my opinion. The overall Ambience of the Safeway store is much more inviting as well. I recognize it's a newer store but the Albertsons really needs to be spruced up and quite possibly rearranged. But it works for me to run into Albertsons when I'm in a hurry.

Despite some gripes I have with their pickup service (which I use often), I absolutely love this…read moreSafeway. First and foremost, it's extremely nice. The store is impeccably clean, products are always well organized, and the store has an amazing parking garage with large spaces under the store (big points for not getting rained on!). If you're not a Safeway rewards member consistently clipping coupons in the app, you're spending too much. I find Safeway's deals to be pretty incredible compared to other local options (Walmart, military commissary, Costco). Plus, can't beat the convenience of this store's location. Their gas is consistently cheapest in the area, especially when using points for fuel rewards (we are huge on buying 4x points products then using our rewards to get $1/off per gal of gas). Their gas station does get busy but it moves quickly, has a mini mart, and is well-lit so I always feel safe there, even at night. Now, pick up service. The app is incredibly easy to use to place grocery orders. Orders are consistently ready early or precisely on-time. While they're shopping, the employee asks for substitution permission if a product is unavailable. You can also put in acceptable substitutes ahead of time and send messages to the employee shopping. The employees are fast, friendly, and have always selected fresh products, which I appreciate. My gripe is how they pack the car. I drive a Suburban and always ask that they load everything up in the trunk. It is complete chaos with their loading (heavy things on top, unstable things near the front)... several times we've had casualties when I've opened the trunk and groceries have fallen and been ruined (like jars or bottles breaking) because of the poor loading job. A few weeks ago, I picked up an order and the store called me to come back because they had left their tablet in the trunk buried under the groceries. I asked if they were sure (they said "we think we left it in there") and said I'd pull over to check because I didn't want to drive back if it wasn't in there. Welp, as soon as I opened the trunk, a jug of milk and case of Sprite fell right out of my car to the ground and exploded open. I walked the exploded milk jug and Spite cans to a nearby trash can, then, whilst my entire outfit was covered in both, gave up on my preliminary search and drove back to the store. I was so frustrated. They were in a major rush once I arrived and hurried to replace the milk jug but didn't replace the exploded Sprite cans. I'll still get pick up orders but my gosh, please train your employees how to properly load up grocery orders! Nonetheless, I am a several-times-a-week patron of this store and truly feel fortunate to have it so close to home. Despite the gripes, I'm still loyal and think the overall store deserves a solid five stars. On a side note: How freaking cute is the little "free fruit" basket for kids visiting the store (see photos)?! I love that!

i've literally never seen someone take so long to put cheese and bacon onto two pieces of bread…read more i've also never seen someone fail so hard at making a sandwich? i was watching this dude make a sandwich in utter horror. he put the most red onion pieces i've ever seen in one pile on the sandwich, and put mayo on one side and mustard on the other and didn't mix at all. sourdough was also the first thing i said when i explained what i wanted on my sandwich and he gave me white bread. it took 12 minutes to make it. i genuinely hope he was just high and safeway didn't actually hire someone to work at the deli who literally can't even make a sandwich.

Something I can wear cozy and warm while reminiscing about fun times in Brinnon.

I do love going to these types of stores and put it in my mind on a return trip to stop in and check out the store. Well we made a another visit to town a few weekends ago and we made a stop here. Like any good and complete Co-op (I have run into bad ones) the products are of good quality and the food is organic. There is a nice deli area where you can get sandwiches and food bar to dish up if your heart desires it. There is a good health and beauty section where like the quality of the food is a few grades above a run of the mill grocery store which the quality can be questionable and if it's ethically sourced (same concern goes to food too). I purchased a few cans of beer and hop water. The hop water was quite good but it is from a brewery that we have a very high regard for so not a huge surprise. They have a considerable beer and wine selection which is nice. This is a great place to go and support... something I can really get behind is to support local businesses!

I recommend dropping into this place in your way into downtown., or when leaving, grab a snack for the road.

They also have a deli, a bakery, pharmacy, floral dept, and a Starbuck's inside plus a gas station that also sells propane. Lots of locals stopping after work for six-packs so the three times I visited, the checkout line was long and the store was crowded. On an early morning visit (needed some Chobani yogurt), I was tempted to get a Starbuck's to go but didn't have time to wait. Also bought gas twice during the week. All in all, a pretty basic store with pretty much everything you'd need. Nice employees, reasonable prices -by today's standards. Would go back if in the area again.
