Safeway Penticton

If you have not been to this Safeway, you are doing yourself a disservice! Just look at the beautiful fresh fully stocked produce. I was in awe upon my visit to this location about a week ago.nEverything looked picture perfect, was super fresh & colorful and there was a great variety. Also- they still have the famous old school Safeway bakery, so treat yourself to something, i highly recommend a pizza cheese bun because they are the best & make them just how i always remembered. And you will not be disappointed.nYou can tell that the employees and store manager have pride in their store.nEspecially the beautifully merchandised produce Department.

Very Disrespectful andnDisappointing ExperiencennOn October 17th, around 5:30–6:00 p.m., my son and I were standing in line at the Safeway deli to buy fried chicken. The white male employee wearing a Safeway cap was being extremely kind to the elderly lady in front of us — helping her patiently with mac and cheese, wedge potatoes, and chicken. He smiled, asked if she needed anything else, and treated her with great respect.nnBut as soon as she finished, everything changed. When it was our turn, he didn’t say a single word, didn’t even look at us, and just walked away to the back as if we didn’t exist. We were completely ignored — it honestly felt humiliating.nnAn Asian female employee with yellow-colored hair later came out and kindly served us, and I truly appreciated her attitude. But I can’t help wondering why we were treated so differently. Was it because we’re Asian? It really felt like a subtle kind of racism.nnTo the manager: please take this seriously and speak with that employee — a tall white man with curly hair. Customers should never feel invisible or disrespected in your store.

well-organized. The store is clean, spacious, and easy to navigate with clearly marked aisles. Fresh produce and bakery items stand out for their quality and variety. Staff are friendly and willing to help with any questions. The pharmacy section adds extra convenience for health needs. Weekly deals and reward points make it affordable. Overall, it’s a reliable place for everyday groceries and essentials.

This is a nice store but does show some signs of aging, especially around the checkout area. The selection is okay, but the prices are higher than some of the competitors. There is a in house bakery and Deli with hot precooked meals but nothing special.

Absolutely this Safeway.nProduce section is always fresh.nThe store layout makes it easy to find everything you need.nStaff is helpful and friendly, too.
