“Remodeled Safeway in Renton Highlands”

Veronica S., Saturday, March 04, 2006

This review is for: Safeway Food & Drug

Recently remodeled, this is a nice place to shop. The staff and friendly and helpful- they always offer to walk me to an item if I ask where something is. The bakery makes great breads for a grocery store and they make good cakes too (though you'll get a better price for something just as tasty at SAM's Club- see my other review). The deli has a good selection of ready-made foods and there's even fresh sushi made there, now. The produce is better than I remember it being in years past, and they're carrying a lot more certified organic foods now. The only thing I don't like is that the "healthy/organic" food is in it's own section instead of just on the shelves with all the other foods. Since I buy a mix of organic and non-organic foods, I don't really want to have to look in two different places for juice, you know? I just want to go to the juice aisle and see all my options, not run to two different parts of the store. It's weird, too, because in some cases, they carry both products in both places. For example, the organic milk is in the "healthy/organic" section and in the regular dairy section. But the Morningstar (vegetarian) products are only with the regular frozen foods and not in the "healthy/organic" section- I don't get it! Overall, though, a great store. I also often rent movies there because I don't want to bother to pack up my kid , drive across the parking lot, unpack the kid, and go into Hollywood Video.
