BEWARE: Do not buy gift cards from Safeway; especially Amazon Gift Cards. Purchased an Amazon Gift Card. I'm very careful when I buy Gift Cards and examine them before I buy them. The card looked mint (not tampered with) but to my surprise, looks like someone took the card home, carefully opened the package, took the code, scratched off code so that code can't be redeemed, glued back the package and returned it to Safeway to wait to see if someone will purchase that card. Safeway will not refund; even if you tell them the card was purchased here. Hours of talking to Amazon - I will not disclose the outcome, but let's just say they knew exactly who redeemed the code of the gift card I purchased and Amazon is investigating to take care of that theif. I told them to ban their account and contact the police department, since they can see the name, address and the account. To Safeway - you lock up practically everything behind glass doors. Is there not a way to protect your gift cards from thieves that steal them and tamper with them? How about a locked case for gift cards too?? There's also a way where you can place locks on each of the metal hangers so that no one can remove them off the hangers (longs drugs do this with batteries, and we need to call over staff to unlock to buy them) - this way, we will know that the only ones that have access are safeway employees and outside vendors stocking gift cards (if they do) - so if there is an issue with gift cards, you know it's an insider. But since everyone and anyone has access to all of the gift cards there, Is security seeing who stops by to probably steal a stack of gift cards and then bring them back to your store to wait for victims to buy them? Again, if outside vendors are coming in to restock gift cards - it's time to examine if they aren't doing anything shady before they restock them too. read more

This review is just for the Starbucks in Safeway on S Beretania. There was a $6 grande drink and pastry deal on Friday, which is quite nice given a drink alone is usually that amount. The baristas were hardworking and helpful. The cashier was especially friendly and proactive in assisting me. Drink was made perfectly! Quality service, food and drink! read more

Safeway - Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I did an online order for this store, yesterday, August 15. Husband picked up at curbside on way home from work. MISERABLE product experience. Sandwich rolls, packed three days in advance with an expiration date of Friday. STALE and HARD. Ham, ordered SHAVED got SLICES. Why do you bother to ask customers how they want the meat cut if you are just going make it YOUR WAY NOT THEIRS? Finally, 1lb of ground beef. Was going to make burgers tonight. NOPE. It is LITERALLY GREY. GREY. At $13???? You people should be ashamed of yourselves for doing this to customers. Were you looking to lose one? Because you did. NEVER again. read more

I enjoyed my shopping experience at this particular Safeway! It was a lot bigger than the ones I've been in before. I also found great hot and cold ready to eat food options. It's nice and organized and has lots too choose from! A few opportunities were the locked unmaintained bathrooms and the cart locking as soon as we brought it into the elevator. Other than that, I enjoyed walking around every aisle and finding unique food options I don't normally find in a Walmart or H-E-B. There are a few items that I didn't mind buying over here even though I knew it may be a higher price. Dog food here is about $33 for the fresh pet when I can get it for around $20 in Costco. read more

We went to Safeway Beretania to do some banking and grocery shopping. We started in the produce department and there were a lot of customers buying fresh corn for the Labor Day weekend. So when we got there the customers were digging through all the corn husk looking for the corn and there was none, so my wife asked the producer clerk trimming the stems off the red leaf lettuce, do you have more corn! No answer, so she comes back and we are waiting 5 mins and I ask her what did he say? She replied nothing, he ignored me! So I went and asked do you have more corn or do we have to get a rain check? Then he replied on lunch? Not even leaving to bring some out, so I ask him when will more be available? No answer? Then I asked what is your name? No answer, so I look over and his name tag said Serg. After I walk back and this other guy walks by and we let him know there's no corn on the shelf, he replied will bring some out, after waiting another 10-15 minutes he comes out with about 6 boxes of corn and there was about 8-10 customers waiting around for it. The customer service has really gone down, before if you asked a clerk they would show you where the item is or get it for you! I always shop there and this is the first time a produce clerk or any clerk at Safeway didn't care to try and assist a customer! read more

Why this location ? Covered parking ! Simple as that This store was the former Shuman Carriage (original Cadillac dealer). The market is on the upper level while the parking stalls are covered under the market. There are two ways in and out; southeast side with elevators and southwest side with escalators. While this location is far from new, I will say it comes of clean and neat Bank of Hawaii has a little satellite branch. Their customer service counter sells money grams. But best of all IMHO is their $5 Fridays. Of the many Safeways-the Beretania location reigns supreme as their $5 specials are readily available (no waiting or pulling numbers) Located at the northeast corner of the Beretania and Piikoi intersection. Getting into the parking is easier than exiting nap be sure you check the direction you need to go making sure you get out on the exit appropriate for the direction you are heading toward. read more

Shopping in Honolulu, Hawaii... Cece and I were on a hunt for Waiola Coconut Water. It sounds odd, but the price was $4.99 (plus tax of 0.4712%) - the lowest price ever for a high quality product! We had already visited two other Safeway locations and were more determined to reach our goal! We experienced great service in Kapahulu and not so great service in Manoa. I was hesitant to come to Beretania because it seems so busy and crowded. However, it wasn't bad at 9pm. Luckily, it's a 24 hour operation! I actually called the store first and received great help! Customer Service said that they did have Waiola Coconut Milk. I spontaneously asked, "How many are there?" After a bit, the answer came back: "About 20 containers." Yippee! I should have asked, "Where?" Beretania Safeway is relatively new and spacious. We parked on the ground level and caught the elevator up. It was so bright and clean! Cece knew to look in the refrigerated area at the end of an aisle... Eureka! She found it!!! The question now was - how many can we each carry? These containers are kinda heavy! Haha! ...especially because she was taking the Waiola Coconut Water with her on her flight back to Northern California! Hmm... Cece is an excellent packer, so she figured out that she can fit 6 containers in her luggage. I got 5 containers... and we checked out! Luckily, we had our strong reusable bags with us! The cashier was amused by our photography antics with Cony, Brown, and Grumpy Bear! This was a fun adventure with a happy ending! Thanks for the memorable experience! We'll be back! read more

Safeway Beretania is one of newest Safeway with ample parking. Best time to shop is on Friday when they have their $5 Fridays. You can see what's on sale on their ads in the Midweek. Always extra savings on their app. Safeway have variety of brands and more of it. I do like to come for their $10 meals like their sandwich combo or the create your own so you can pick your protein and your own sides than potato wedges and Cole slaw. For your sides, I rather choose their pasta salad, Okinawan sweet potatoes, but especially the broccoli salad! The dressing makes the broccoli salad which is one of my mom and I favorite! The bakery and flower section are worth checking out. They have a pharmacy too and I forgot who I spoke with here over the phone but he was really helpful when I was checking on their availability of a medication that was hard to get. You can get gifts card from here but just can't get it through the self check out. The nice thing about Safeway when purchasing gift cards, the gift card receipts automatically comes out after your store purchase receipt so you have a gift card activation receipt to attached to the gift card. Best to download Safeway app to save more and to get more deals! read more

The Safeway supermarket on Beretania street sure has a lot of history on Oahu. If you're an old timer like me, how many of you remember at one time the Safeway supermarket on Beretaina Street used to be at the location where Petco & Walgreens currently is? About 12 years ago, Safeway moved house & relocated about a long block away, but they still remain in the Makiki neighorhood. Currently, you can find this particular Safeway supermarket where the old Schuman Carriage car dealership used to be. I don't come to this particular Safeway all the time, due to the parking situation as this particular store is quite busy, and I believe they don't have enough parking. Also, if you do come to this particular supermarket at night, may I suggest you be aware of your surroundings, as this area has some pretty sketchy people late at night. The store set up is pretty unique, as the parking lot is actually downstairs, and upon entering the supermarket, you actually have to go upstairs to get into the store. There are three ways to get into the store - stairs, escalator, or elevator. When you do get into the store, I must say it's pretty spacious, and clean. There is a Starbucks & Bank of Hawaii bank located within the store premises. Like any Safeway stores, look for Friday DEALAGES in the Midweek newspaper! read more

Safeway - ($7.32 w/tax) for one pound of frozen Pink Salmon. - Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I have been going to this Safeway location for years now, and while I find their selections a bit on the pricier side, you cannot deny that they have a lot to offer: a Cafe where you can order sandwiches and wraps, a Bakery where you can purchase bread, donuts, bagels, and other desserts, a full-service pharmacy that offers vaccinations, a Deli that offers fresh meats and seafood, a Sushi counter that offers fresh daily sushi, and an in-store Starbucks. They even have a Floral Section, where they offer fresh flowers & flower lei! One benefit of this location is the friendliness of the staff. I have never been disappointed with how I've been treated whenever I shop there, and have even come to know some of the staff by name! All of that, combined with the welcoming ambiance, makes THIS the best Safeway on the island! If you live in the Makiki area or are just passing through on your way home from work, stop by Safeway Beretania. I promise you that it's worth it! read more

Not just for groceries... As I watch our local Safeways transform itself to this multi-use area to do much more than just grocery shopping...it worked because prior to that I've never shopped there very much at all. Besides the usual pharmacy, banking and even delivery or curbside that many grocery stores have now added for additional services they do have Starbucks and who haven't gone there for that alone...yup yup! The best thing that does set them aside is the DMV kiosk. Literally takes just a minute it's the best convenience that I truly love not just that you don't have to stand in long lines to get it done there's isn't a time that it will close lol! There is a $4.00 convenience fee added along with a 2.5% fee for credit/debit card it's still all worth it and it print it out so there is no waiting. The vibe here is always fun and bright sometimes building random art out of soda boxes is impressive along with a floral area and covered parking getting here is easy...oh and don't forget the $5 Fridays the deals are so fun and amazing! Thank you! read more

Always enjoy coming to this Safeway (excluding the donut/mouse incident). Good sales and clean aisles. Five dollar Fridays. App coupons and Just for you deals. Almost all of cashiers and employees are helpful here. If you can't find something that was on sale, just ask and they'll check for you or issue you a rain check ( some exclusions apply). There's also a Starbucks located at this location. read more

I actually kind of like this Safeway. I remember when it was just getting built from its old location across the street. The whole second floor store situation makes this location weird and quirky. It's kinda hard to use the escalator with a bunch of bags, so I try to park on the elevator side and use that huge elevator. The Safeway store is on the second floor. The first floor is for parking and there are some small stores on the street side of the lot. The elevator lets out right next to Starbucks, so that's cool. This store is very large and there are always a lot of people shopping. I like that things seem to be rotated out (or bought out) quickly and that there are frequent sales on things I normally buy. The best deal happened when I happened to be shopping for a belated Friendsgiving celebration. Turkeys were only $0.49 per pound. What a deal. On my most recent visit, I picked up some sumo oranges for $4.99 per pound. I feel like that's less than Whole Foods and they were sweet and delicious. I'm usually impressed with the flower department at this store, but sometimes it is lacking or the flowers are old. At least they have flowers. The cashiers are nice and if you don't want to talk to a real person about your groceries, there are several self check outs. read more

It's clean, well lit and very convenient parking, with everything you'd need in a grocery store. The produce is always appetizing. I don't have much comment on the meat department as I haven't really bought much from them. read more

I like the hot and ready to eat entrees from this Safeway. They just completed renovations and have a whole hot entrees section. It's like a buffet line, but they sell it for $9.99 per pound. I love their salt and vinegar fried chicken wings. They go on special from time to time on Fridays for $5 a pound. I also like their chicken salad and deviled egg salad. Their cakes are also very good. This is only one of the few places that makes my favorite tres leche cake. Their fruit tart and strawberry shortcake are delicious. The poke department is hit or miss. I like their raw crab and clam poke. When it comes to the raw fish, Foodland is winning the poke battle. read more

Parking is a bit crowded today. They have a free parking structure but because it's been super hot lately, everyone's gunning for the shade. Lol! They have an escalator entrance to the main floor to shop. As you walk into the lobby of the parking structure, you'll have to take the elevator to escalator up. Then they have a wagon-lator. You put the shipping cart on it and it goes up with the escalator and I think the same for the coming down part. Didn't do it yet. But yeah... I think that's a cool thing. Kind of like how WALMART KUNIA use to be like. Except theirs was a conveyor belt. Place is HUGE & very nice and busy. It's a good place to shop. read more

2 stars lost for placing chicken wings with your BOGO poultry special (wings not included in the sale according to cashier ) You had no sign up to distinguish them but they were all together mixed in and one section. Very confusing. I was told my pork blade also wasn't included and I made her scan and read my coupon it said BLADE. I always give 5 stars but when I got a manager who didn't look concerned She said sorry with no action taken just too bad attitude. I hope my next visit is back to normal. read more

Safeway - TELL ME WHY IS THERE NO CHANGING STATION IN THE MEN'S ROOM? - Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Here's an ultra convenient Safeway based on location, parking, and product availability. It's bordered by Kinau, South Beretania, and Piikoi, a heavily trafficked area due to H-1 freeway onramps in both directions. There are multiple entry and exit points, adding to ease of access. Love the staff friendliness and availability of free parking. Go through the automated sliding doors, take the escalator or stairway up to second level, and start shopping! read more

I have been purchasing their Lucerne Frozen Dairy Dessert for ovr 20 years. AT first the quality was good. It is a cheap product tha was satistifying. However over the years the produc has changed. It apears the same but any resemblance to artifical ice cream has gone. I used to eat a tub of thier Vanila flavor every week. Then at least 12 years or longer ago the flavor changed such that it's taste no longer even close to Vanila. So I switchted to Chocolate which still provied satifying flavor. This Februray 2026 I bought 2, 1 galon tubs. and both lact any flavor. It is as if they had taken all the sweetness out of it. The product is no longer worth purchasing. It appears the they are changing the product to reduce thier cost or their quality control is not very good. Many Years ago I contacted them about the lack of Vanila flavor and I did not see any change in the product so I avoided it. Now thier Chocolate flavor has changed for the worst so I am going to buy my ice cream 1 gallon tubs from another store. read more

Safeway - Great deal on TP - Grocery Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Terrible service. To anyone thinking of shopping at Safeway, do yourself a favor and drive a few extra miles to the one on Pali Highway. At least there, you won't be subjected to eye-rolls from the cashier. When I went, there were only two checkout lanes open. One had a long line, and the other had none -- so I went to the one without a line (I later realized why no one else did). The young Black female cashier looked visibly unhappy from the start. Yes, I had a lot of items -- which is exactly why I didn't go to the express lane and chose this one instead. During checkout, she couldn't find the prices for some vegetables, which was her responsibility, not mine. And when she finally handed me the receipt, she slammed it on the counter and gave me an eye-roll. She even complained about the young man who was kindly helping bag my groceries. I honestly wonder how someone who clearly hates her job and behaves so unprofessionally is still working there. read more

I went to the Pali Safeway at 6:00 am today looking for a birthday sheet cake. Unfortunately, I didn't realize the Pali location didn't have a bakery so all they had was pre-packaged cakes. So I headed over to this location and was impressed by the large selection of cakes. All different sizes and designs. They also had a cool book that had additional cake options that you could order in advance. Prices were a bit high, especially just to write a simple Happy Birthday "Name." But I definitely appreciated being able to get something like this so early in the morning. read more

It's very sad that they have an ad in the newspaper for a special on only Friday and then they turn out and say that it's a misprint. That's really sad because don't they have anybody who checks those prints before they go out to be published. I was not happy on top of that. There was somebody in the deli section where I was asking for one of the specials and he didn't even mention that the ad was not right so I go all the way up to the cashier ready to pay at the charging me the regular price instead of the ad price because it was a misprint Well, it'll be a while before I go back The other special where they had chicken and some sausage on special was a bit dirty with all the juices from the container spilling out of course nobody cleans that up Today was just a bad day there all the way around read more

I am shocked by the treatment I was given...why would I steal food when I have a ebt card. Does anyone else shop with a cooler? Curious read more

Heads up...watch these guys when trying to get your free items by redeeming your digital U points. They try to fake their way out of it. I've already caught them before with the Lucerne brand eggs 12, ct a week before, and I let it slide. Tonight was the 2nd time I caught them, this time with the butter and diced tomatoes. We got there around 6pm and finally left around 9pm all because they tried to deny these digital U labels deals that are on random items all over the store. Then when they finally honored them, they on purposely locked our cart so that it wouldn't move (security measure for theft) just to be passive aggressive about us catching them on their shade. Then they wouldn't help us unlock the cart either. read more

DMV duties was basically my visit to Safeway Beretania because they have a self-serve kiosk to make car registration payments. I'll be honest, as much as possible I shop at another grocery store to support local. Safeway prices can be competitive, but generally prices are higher, IMO. Here's my breakdown, Safeway is open all hours of the day, if you're a Bank of Hawaii customer, they have an in-store branch open 7 days a week. There's also a Starbucks where you can use your mobile app to pay, but you can't order in advance for pick up, and they have self checkout lines which is the trend nowadays. I do have T-Mobile, so there's an authorized dealership located downstairs, and if you are an American Savings Bank customer, they have a branch located outside of the store. Lots and lots of free and covered parking in the garage below. Don't be like me and pay for your car registration on the last day because that line almost looked like DMV lol ;-) read more

Not sure why Safeway gets so many mediocre ratings at their various stores on Oahu. The Beretania location is the closest to me. And when I do shop at a Safeway store it is this one and the Kapahulu store that I will usually visit. Safeway was a bit pricier than most grocery stores but that was years ago. Between their $5 Friday specials, weekly sales, and app deals they are fully and well competitive with any grocery chain. Beretania Safeway is still a fairly new store and is still quite pleasant to look and shop at if a bit crowded on the weekends. Customer service is usually good. Cashiers are typically fast and courteous. This Sunday afternoon was scorching hot as most June afternoons have been...melt the product in your hair hot. Went to purchase some ice cream...Safeway usually has a nice selection on sale. When I saw the Drumstick Vanilla Ice Cream on a 2 for sale...had to get it and it got me by the tastebuds. Refreshingly sweet with nice contrasting textures from the bits of cone and peanuts. Parking stalls are big but there aren't that many stalls for this location. Street parking on Kinau St. It is usually tight on the weekend afternoons and this was a Sunday when Father's Day was being celebrated. So I walked over. read more

Been going to the Safeway beretania location for a long time. Especially for the Friday $5 deals. I always noticed Albert Nitta, store manager working hard, running through the store, checking on each department. When I had a concern, he handled it fast and professionally. This is a huge store. Workers are always working hard to restock the shelves. Store opens at 5am. Lots of free parking. Sanitation of shopping carts. Very organized. Note: there is a DMV kiosk, for car registration. Seems to be convenient, but small surcharge. Suggestion: get the Safeway application. Attach coupons. Also, the points/rewards pgm is on the application. read more
