Please if you black or Africa American or any race please boycott this store in bellevue on bellevue way. This is the God gospel truth. I went into this Safeway . I was going to buy pronamel toothpaste. While looking at the pronamel toothpaste nature called so I went to the bathroom to urinate on coming out I went to the Asian chinese area to buy some Mongolian beef . The lady dished the food out and I decided to pay for the monogilian beef and then I will buy the toothpaste later after eating. When I got to the stand for payment I used the automatic checkout. While I was paying there comes this white guy very rude with no Safeway badge to identify himself and his long sleeve shirt was out of his trousers . He wore a three piece suit. The next thing he did not say excuse me . He says is there anything you want to tell me about. I was like what do you work for Safeway. At first I was surprised I thought it was a joke. You have no badge to identify yourself. Then he says is there anything in the bag you would like to tell me about. He says he will call 911. I said go ahead and call the cops . Before God again I did not steal anything from that or any Safeway store ever in my life and this is the gospel truth. So I got angry I was like why are you accusing me of stealing. You have a good surveillance system . You should check the camera and then if I stole anything you call the Bellevue Police department . I will be arrested and prosecuted but for you to just accuse someone of stealing without no evidence or facts is very offensive and racist. I am Seriously considering filing a litigation against This company because after I left the store I thought how many people would have been harrassed and received such an unpleasant treatment . I think I was profiled. I just think because I was carrying a bag without them looking at the surveillance camera they accused me of stealing . The same guy that accused me wanted to fight me after I told him I will beat and knock his teeth out. He is such an Ignoramous. I was very angry and felt very humiliated but I was very bold and aggressive because I did not steal anything. I defended myself very well cause I will not take such nonsense from anyone. Plus I have never stolen anything from any grocery store or any company like Walgreens, Walmart , Kmart and so on. He then said he was going to bring the person that saw me taking something from their store. I said go ahead and bring the person. I was waitng in the store. He did not come back with the person. Instead he brought an Asian Assitant manager to come talk to me and he was apologizing several times. I told the assistant manager if you have a survillance system you can see if I stole anything but where I did not and you accused me Is very offensive and racist. He kept on apologizing that they should get my phone number and the director will call me and they will address this issue in the meeting. How does that help my system? I am going to see an attorney. Terrible horrible experience . Boycott this store on 300 bellevue way Thanks

NEVER GO HERE; I feel PROFILES: BLACKS, LATINOS, YOUNG AND POOR Horrible experience. Accused of shoplifting liquor when I never stepped foot in that department or near any alcohol (because Im in a 12 step group). No burden of proof, no stolen goods, no footage, really no reasonable suspicion, I hadnt even walked past the POS/cashiers (therefore no proof for an intent to not pay and no reasonable suspicion for an accusation). Although he found NOTHING, he THREATENED ME WITH PHYSICAL VIOLENCE if I returned. Glasses, tie, silver hair, 56"ish, white. I figure eventually this guy is going to hurt himself, someone else or hand out settlement money for a personal tort lawsuit, plenty of complaints online and in person, his overly aggressive nature and complete negligence for the proper ways of apprehension are undeniable now. I wonder, if hes immoral and unethical in his treatment of shoplifters or in this case a FORMER regular customer, how is the store run; since hes on management. Expiration dates? employee treatment? throwing away spoiled product? I mean where else does he cut corners and act unethically? Id sue if I had more time, I certainly have a case, all things considered.

The pharmacy staff was extremely rude. Absolutely no customer service whatsoever. I dropped of a prescription on sunday night- the pharmacist on duty seemed annoyed as she took down my information. She mentioned she was closing in 5min and I assured her that it was no problem on my end, I would come back tomorrow to pick it up. I came back two days later to another pharmacist telling me that she had no information on me at all. There was never a prescription noted or put in the system. Then she responded with she must have been closing. Wtf! Im not high maintenance at all but the fact that no one apologized about their own mistake EVER was just plain rude. Their overall attitude is just plain disgusting in my opinion.

My favorite grocery store, ever. Very nice place, has a great selection, even of fancier items. Their cheese selection is crazy-huge, as is their wine selection. And yet as fancy as it is (being in the heart of downtown Bellevue), its still priced like any other Safeway. Very handy. The Safeway membership program can save you a ton of cash. Covered parking - both on the main level and underground means you never get wet getting to and from your car. LOVE THIS. Open until 1am, which is super handy for a nightowl like myself. Friendly staff, eight brand-new self-serve checkout stations; its all good in the neighborhood.

Understaffed, slow workers. Extremely rude worker at the deli section. The rest of the staff are nowhere to be seen for questions other than cashiers. The ones that you do find avoid or ignore you. Hell if an employee from there is reading this theyll probably say, "Ive never seen you in my life why would you say this?" Thats the extent of how perfect they are at ignoring and avoiding customer service. Although I sometimes have no choice but to ship at both QFC and Safeway depending on what is in stock or not.

Do shop here if you like cheap but expired food! I buy lots of stuff here because of the convenience, and often go home to find that they are expired. Gave a friendly tip to the manager once but returned to keep finding expired products... oh well, atleast they open late and are cheap with the Safeway club card. Staff are also friendly most of the time, and they have a large selection of items.

That last post was from a while ago, since then they have really updated the store. It has some very convenient parking and is situated right below some apartments. Prices here are much more affordable than at QFC down the street, unfortunately they dont have a redbox in the store, but thats what I go to QFC for :-). Oh and they have a starbucks inside, if your into their coffee.
