This is a nice, large, recently re-modeled Safeway.  It of course has everything you could want and then some.  From a nice fresh fruits and vegie section (complete with organic if you so desire),  plenty on offer in the frozen food section, on down to fresh meats and fish,  good selection of canned and dry foods from most parts of the world, and then finishes off with the bakery and deli area.

Includes a Starbucks, fee wi-fi, and a sushi bar (which is surprisingly very good for a reasonable price).

The prices are fine if you have a club card (I hate these customer loyalty programs - just give me the everyday low price!  but I understand their motivation).

I guess the one frustrating thing to me is their push towards those self-checkout lanes - which always seem to get hung up on something for me and never work quit right.

It can get busy at times (Sunday afternoons) and the checkout aisle fill up really fast.

More fun tips are that the baggers are very sweet and kind.  They usually employee someone who is mentally or physically handicapped  and I love that Safeway celebrates diversity in that way.  And I just learned yesterday if you bring your own bags you get a $0.05 credit for each one.
