The biggest supermarket in the aria, everything is available! Even sushi ❤️

@KeithJonesJr

I went to this Safeway after work on a Wednesday (26th of the month) around 6:00 PM and there were only 3 registers open.

Gig Big

Their deli sandwiches are so good that when I bit into mine the only thing I could do was hold my sandwich up in the air and yell DAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DC N.O.R.E.

Raggedy, unclean and perpetually stocked with rotting or expired food. Shop at the new Giant on H Street

Stacey

be prepared to wait A WHILE to checkout, always understaffed.

Shaun Rieley

Not as bad as other reviews suggest. Not the best, but certainly not as bad as others make it seem. Great beer and wine selection .

Jonathan Gormley

Solid store selections but the check out service is one of the slowest ever.

Jonathan Moore

Ummmm... Don't come here during after work hours. Long lines no self check out

Daniel Lincoln

I mean it's clearly no Social Safeway. Tonight there were four registers open!

Charise Van Liew

One of the worst Safeways in DC. Always understaffed at registers . Produce is mediocre at best. If you have to go, best times are Saturday after 7pm or early in the morning.

Jordan Koebler

This place is Hell on Earth. Would rather starve then go to this sorry excuse for a grocery store . Only 2 registers open with tons of employees idling around. It would be quicker to grow your own food

Chett Pritchett

I swear my checker is as high as a kite.

Javien

No matter what time I come here, there are never enough lines open

Chett Pritchett

Even though they are theoretically still open, their doors are closed and you have to go in the out door after 10 p.m. Real stupid, going elsewhere

Ton H.

Always check your receipt especially if using digital coupons. Things frequently ring up incorrectly. Slow lines .

Rob Doole

Avoid! I have been here 3 times and every experience has been awful. Better off getting a taxi to southeast to get food, will be quicker.no self service, or few item check outs

Gig Big

Every day savings

I'm pretty sure Bruce Wayne's parents were shot here. This place is not safe.

Katie Faust

Be prepared to spend at least 30 mins in line - on a good day

Jason Gilmore

Seriously, the worst grocery store I've ever been to as far as time spent in line goes. Go to Harris teeter on Potomac ave. to save time.

Jelani Brown

This is the most horribly staffed store I have ever seen. There are always long lines and selection is always scarce. Take your $ elsewhere!

Chett Pritchett

I will never return to the Safeway now that giant is open on H Street

Chris Miller

Shop during skins games. The place is empty!

Chad Margason

This Safeway sucks. The never open more than 3 lines for cash register . Be prepare to stand in line slower than DC Election Day.

Tonia TaknCharge Coley

Go before the 1st

J Bee

They need to step up their game. I heard giant is coming.

Stephanie

Pretty bad.

Diamond Octavia

TREX

Grocery line Hell awaits you here.

Gee N

MGD beer is here!

"ScOrPiO LeE"

If you want a clean grocery store this ain't it keep it moving,

Delamarques Nel

Sanitation is left wanting. Never seen such lack of cleanliness around food.

H. Olavarria

Pleasent people this time around

Evan Ross

Grocery store hell. Despite having 10 lines , only three are ever open, takes forever.

Joyce Timmons

No public bathroom . Sheesh!!!!

Ruth LaToison Ifill

Horrible customer service. They will not help you if you can't find something.

Chett Pritchett

Produce looks wilted...

Ryan Kearney

No self-checkout. Safeway continues to be the worst business in America.

Samuel Moore

Not as bad as other tips might imply, but not that great either.

Tiara Johnson

Hope u have a ride because the riders are rude and incompetent

Lizee J

Ghetto Safeway, go to Harris Teeter instead.

Patrick Frank

Carts are notoriously awful but it looks like they got a bunch of new ones finally.

DC Cedar

Avoid. Place is filled with awful souls.
