They have great prices on some things. Somethings are not up to quality standards but you get what you pay for I guess...The price for a 7lb of ice is $1.49! You cant really beat that! Except next door at the Dollar Tree you can get a 5lb bag of ice for a dollar! So $3 for 14 or 15 bags of ice... Either way a great deal when ice in the city is $2.50 to $3.50 for a 7lb bag of ice!

I’m always able to find a good bargain here and enjoy being able to find certain unique items here. I shop here regularly each week to two weeks for eggs, and I’m always greeted with a kind face when I stop by. Only reason I could have for 4 stars rather than 5 is that sometimes I will find a certain item I really enjoy, and then I end up buying it regularly, and it’s gone after a couple weeks. I suppose it’s just a peeve of mine for something a little more constant, however, bearing in mind what else I’ve said so far, I definitely recommend, being a local of Kenmore this is my favorite shop. Don’t degrade yourself by going to Safeway or having to drive further away, they’ve got everything you need here.

Good prices but they sell expired items. I bought a small rotten watermelon, which 3 days later they cut price down from 2.50 to 1.00. Beware. Manager didnt have an interest in finding out if what they are still selling are rotten. No refund. He wants to see the rotten watermelon which I threw away. I will stick to the regular grocery stores from now on.

My number 1 grocery store! Best prices by far (Id say about 40% less than elsewhere), especially considering that Im European and a true mouse (big cheese consumer !). Buying imported cheeses in The States is ridiculously expensive. Employees always comment on the amount of cheese I buy there :D I also love the fact that I get to discover new products at an affordable price. Tip: if you find something you like, buy A LOT, because you never know when theyll run out OR if itll be back! I also found some really great (natural!) skin care + healthy protein powders that I couldnt afford full price. Thank You!

Normally like this chain lots. This store parking bit harder to me. Same basic selection. Produce never seems as fresh as other stores. Staff friendly and helpful.

On the hunt for Heinz mayonnaise. Its $1.99 in Grocery Outlet and $6.99 in a local grocer that I will not name and $4.99-7.85 on Amazon. I will happily make some before paying that outrageous amount.

The store is dirty. Stuff in produce looked old and the selection in the store is limited on product choices. I come to Grocery Outlet Kenmore and prefer Lynnwood or Lake City. Sorry. Just my opinion what ever thats worth.

This place is a go to conversation topic along my friends and I. Great brands, great selection, great prices. If you’re planning a gathering, or wanting to try new products while on a budget you can afford to take risks here.

Im always happy going there. As long as you go in knowing that you may not find everything that you want/need, because they rotate product so its different all the time, youll be happy too ;) Everything is cheaper than just about anywhere else you might find it, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

They sell smoked salmon here, and cheap. Ever since I moved away from Seattle, people look at me like I have two heads when I speak of salmon as an everyday food; but if you have a Grocery Outlet in driving distance, thats exactly what it becomes. Wine prices here are very modest as well.Their fruits and vegetables arent worth buying -- their fresh berries, in particular, are reliably a disaster, crushed or moldy or both -- but Im honestly still going to give them five stars. I saved much more money on salmon and wine here than I ever lost on berries.

Place is always clean and well kept, prices are really good, and most of the employees are really nice. I have seen a couple employees not wearing masks while walking around, and letting some customers get away without wearing masks as well.

I’ve been stopped here after work on and off for the last three years. I have never had a bad experience. There’s always something good to grab and I’m loving their expanding NOSH section. We only buy what we need for the week and have never had things go bad before we get to them.

This is one of the very few places in Seattle area that sells groceries at a reasonable price.Their collection of organic items is nice. This specific GO is smaller than others in the area.

Review №26

My cousin has a disability that excludes her from wearing a mask. Her service dog was with us and doing his job. The store owner told her she had to wear a mask or leave. She cant wear a mask. The owner Judy was very short and frankly quite rude about the entire situation. I will not be returning to this location for any reason ever again. Terrible interaction with the staff that were involved. Even aftering being told that an excluding disability existed, she refused to heed the warnings about violating ADA and CDC recommendations about people with a disability not being required to wear the masks. We will be contacting the appropriate authorities to resolve the violation of ADA rules and regulations.

The employees are always super sweet! The veggies and milk go rotten faster than we can use them even though the date on the packaging says they should still be fine. Other than that, its a great place to look for bargains.

Always friendly customer service here. Busy. Stock can be a surprise. Regular customer. Lots of name and off name brands. Sundry items. Pre packaged meats. Small produce section with some specialty items, guavas, papayas, etc. Wine selection. Hard liquor. Toiletries. Can save $ if one is flexible.

Review №37

As a family of six, I sometimes shop here..Although, being careful on items purchased with nearing shelf life. I purchased a couple of items that were completely stale. And, some bakery items that started molding the next day. I threw my receipt out. I called to see if they would return the bad items and said they dont honor any returns without a reciept. Need less to say, I will stop shopping here if their products are not backed up. It ended up costing me twenty bucks. So much for saving money while I shop this time. Very disapointed in this store.

Im concerned about SOME of there GREATdeals, just always look at the expiration date because a great deal mean the item expired or you have a few days before the item expires. I dont want to drink up a gallon or eat a jar of something in a day or two😵 just look at those DATES.

This is a bargain store only. Don’t expect to go here for all of your shopping. What they have good deals on one week will be different the next week. It’s clean and well organized with a very friendly staff. Lots of parking right in front of the store with easy access in and out. Don’t form an opinion after going there one time. I live in the area so it’s convenient for me to go to the store to see what’s on sale. In and out in 10 minutes-sometimes great deals, sometimes no deals on what I need.

Its small and not such a nice welcoming interior, but does have good prices for promotional items. You wont find everything you might be looking for here as you would at Safeway or Fred Meyer, but if you stick to the items in the weekly ad you will save $$.

Review №52

Ive been coming to this store for 5 years. Today I had a bad experience with the cashier. I was shopping normal like any other customer and having a great experience with the deals until it was my turn to pay for my groceries.i notice that the person in front of me threw his money by accident, at least that was what i thought, until it was my turn. The cashier with purple hair I dont know if she was mad or going thru a bad situation but she didnt even greeted me and started to throw all my groceries, looked like she didnt wanted to be there. She was grabbing all my grocery like if she wad disgusted and making funny faces. I didnt say anything because i didnt wanted to make things worst, sometimes people dont want to be bother but in this case she is doing customer service. Maybe she will make up excuses about how she was working and will blame it on me. per the receipt youre cashier 0144. Hey if you dont like what you are doing just make sure to look for something that makes you happy, if you are happy, you will make the whole world happy.

Nice selection of organic products that is not locally available at other grocery stores... Great laundry section (great prices on detergents), cooking section (great prices on cooking utensils, etc), and they sometimes carry great deals on clothing, towels, unexpected items! The only con... The inventory varies greatly... So if youre looking for specific items to fulfill a recipe... Your best bet would be to visit a regular static inventory local grocery store.

Great stuff but Safeway seems to have the same prices when items are on sale. So needless to say check dates and watch the prices they seem way to good to be true but some items you will pay more then other stores... Give been waned!

This is my favorite store! The friendly staff are helpful and accommodating, the food fresh and tempting, and everything i come in, Im excited to find such a great amount of organic and high end items! Everything is priced to be affordable for those of us on a tight budget. Additionally Grocery Outlet has an assortment of vitamins, personal and gift items, kitchenware, toiletries, cosmetics, clothing, toys, stationery, vegetarian, and dairy products, wines, etc, etc, all at wonderfully discounted prices! Grocery Outlet is always the first store I shop and, I find everything I need for far less than what Id pay anywhere else.

What a gem! I love this place and all of the fantastic finds for food/groceries and even the organic selections that are way under market price. It has been a godsend to me in what I need day to day on a budget. Thanks so much for being in the area and giving those of us who need to stretch the dollar the ability to make it happen. Youre awesome!

They mark lower prices BUT OFTEN CHARGE HIGHER AT CHECK OUT. Dishonest practice - it didnt just happen once. It literally happens every time I shop. Once I had 4 price corrections at check out, that is after I caught those...99%people would not know they are overcharged because who should bother to take note of each items price??

This place is like cheap grocery roulette. Sometimes they have really good deals on organics or specialty items. There is usually a good selection of name brand body products too. Just be cautious of expiration dates and produce that need to be used right after purchase

Review №71

I try to go here every week, along with a trip to Safeway or something. You cant always rely on getting particular items you want here, but its a great place to start, to see what excellent deals they have this week. I dont recommend getting difficult to judge items from the produce section, unless you are pretty good at picking out produce. For example, I got a bag of avocados there, and they all turned out to be disgusting. However, the packaged meats, pantry, and frozen sections are really good.

I must say one thing unhappy has come up. Because of customers are a lot of at noon today, so adds a new line. I walked to the new line. A grim looking man shouted me. He was afraid I went ahead of line. But I didn’t. It was no problem which line, I am last one. So I followed behind his and smiled. He said “you fell funny.”I said “No”. Then he was very proud ,and his flesh quivered on face. He said “ your mum doesn’t tech you....”. He affronted me all the time. So I had to move to another line. I was very, very angry. I shouted out “ you are so rude. ”He was very happy. He is a abnormal, old man. Nobody was in contral. Finally I looked for the manager, but I am so mad I couldn’t say anything.

Review №94

A discount grocery store that carries overstocked items or items that are closed to their expiration dates but not yet expired. Some of the items they carry are name brands while others are either regional or local brands. The prices are competitive but you do need to do comparison checks with the other grocers in your area. Please note they dont accept coupons. The location I go to in Kenmore, WA has ample parking. Everything is neatly arranged and the aisles are not cramped. The staff is friendly. However, since the stores are franchised, the size of the stores and parking varies. I found that they have excellent prices on eggs, bacon, frozen food, bananas, and snacks. They also carry some medications and supplements as well as seasonal items like gardening stuff as well as holiday gear. Some stores do monthly drawings for free store gift cards. All in all, they remind me of a grocery store version of Ross or TJ Maxx.

Jo
Review №95

Good bargains can still be had for intelligent shoppers but its not same the as it was originally with nonstop bargains galore. It now half bargain store and half corporate franchise. They are all franchises but now the owner has to have more creativity selecting stock and displaying it in an attractive environment because the average customer is now a few rungs higher on the economic ladder. Whereas true bargain hunters whether due to circumstances or just the joy of the hunt are not adverse to a little lack of decorum. There are some risks involved buying nonstandard or distressed closeouts but if one has a modicum of experience and can understand sell by dates or label ingredients youre as safe as most anywhere else. Standard stock items are there to fill the gaps and the owners take a regular profit from them because the public expects basic items by dint of the word grocery and dont expect bargains from basics. Where one truly excels is in luxury goods and the somewhat odd stuff that is marked down purely because its taking up valuable retail space or its a tad too close to its expiration date. Learn the whole story behind expiration dates on as many different products as possible to both save money and coincidentally to stay alive as well.

THE best place for great deals on uncommon groceries. Stock changes weekly, even daily, so if you find something you like (perhaps an awesome Chilean red for $5.99) youll need to go back soon and stock up, before the inventory rotates again.

Review №99

If you have grocery shopping to do, then go here first and come home with some extra money in your pocket. Staples, sundries, some produce, cheeses, and frozen items are all a fraction of the big chain grocery stores. Produce is ready to eat instead of a week away like most places.

Great bargains, friendly staff. My favorite grocery store for most of my shopping. They also have vegan, gluten free and good selection of all natural products.
