Safeway Food & Drug

I grew up on Safeway and consider myself a customer for Life. I really like shopping at Safeway. They have great produce, great selection of meats, and a great deli. Majority of my shopping here is from the produce department because they carry Organic vegetables and fruits! I always try to buy fresh herbs here as well. I know where everything is located in this store, it’s easy to shop here, and the staff are friendly, helpful, hardworking. It’s nice to see how many long term employees have been here and you get used to seeing familiar faces!
Another thing I like about Safeway is their deli. They have a good selection of meats and cheeses which you can get sliced fresh by the pound, plus their deli sandwiches are pretty good too. If you like chicken, they do fried chicken pieces and rotisserie chickens which are reasonable prices. You can buy deli salads by the weight, the fresh fruit salad is one of my favorites to order. They also have a beautiful selection of flowers, Roses, floral gifts. The girls that work and prepare all the flowers have been doing a great job, especially on Holidays!!! I have been happy with all the flowers I have bought, which make very nice cheerful gifts on special occasions. You can buy balloons and cards here too, so it’s actually convenient. One thing I have never used is the Pharmacy, but they do have a Pharmacy located in the back area of the store. There is also a Wells Fargo bank counter and atm located inside the store which is awesome! They have new store hours and are now open from 5am to 1am. Plenty of parking, large parking lot! Thanks Safeway :)

Everyone who works here is so nice! From the deli, to the cashiers, etc. I love their fresh sandwiches from the deli, but the premade ones are kind of a let down. Their all dry, no matter what kind you get because they were premade without mayo etc. And a bit over priced for a dry «nothing special» type sandwich. But great to grab and go if you’re in a hurry.
I’ve shopped there during the holidays, crowds of people trying to find their spot in line so they can check out, and it’s quite hectic, however the amazing staff puts on a smile and the lines flow thru in a timely fashion. Major kudos to an employee named Anthony. He needs a raise :)

They were okay. My sandwich was good I got a turkey avocado on sliced wheat. Downfalls were they were out of peppercinis, and the sandwich maker was VERY unclear about the pricing where I ended up getting a bigger sandwich than I had wanted. But overall it was good. I enjoyed my sandwich and the convenience of it right off the highway is nice.

I was so happy to find this on the side of the 99 freeway on my drive up to Chico. We needed to pick up flowers for a friend’s party, and I needed to grab something «healthy» to eat, as I didn’t expect the party to accommodate. Anyway, my stepdad found beautiful potted roses and I quickly found a meal for myself in the deli. Staff was nice enough. The store had an appropriate small-​town feel. To top it off, cleanliness!

I used to come here every day before school to order a sandwich for lunch. Would have given the deli 4 stars until our visit today. We got to the sandwich counter a little before noon on a Sunday. The one employee they have assigned to the deli was backed up so she called for assistance. The assistant manager came in and began making our sandwiches. But she was very slow and you could tell she did not know how to make the sandwiches. That would have been understandable, but before we could even finishing ordering our first sandwich she asked us to pay for the three sandwiches we were going to have. Come on, who wants to pay for something before they even order it?! When making the first sandwich she didn’t even ask if we wanted to make any changes to the sandwiches. I had to watch her and make sure it was done to our taste. And when it came time to close the sandwich she had so much difficulty, she hand tore the bread at the seam and smeared mustard and mayo all over the sandwich. And this is after I payed. Thankfully the next two sandwiches came out much better, but I am still disappointed as that first sandwich was one we bought for someone else.

Closer then Roseville to Yuba areas. Its a small, little selection and clean parking lot and store. Pepsi Fridays are random but worth the drive ;)

Can’t live without it.

Excellent service, even on Christmas Eve! The store carried everything we were looking for and was very clean.
