Safeway Liquor is a supermarket with a very large selection of items, generally well-stocked and clean. It features a fresh food counter, or deli, which offers some excellent deals like a three salad and one roll combo. The store is open late, which customers find convenient. While some note it doesn't have as many deals as other locations, it provides compostable produce bags. Some customers wish for paper grocery sacks as a more eco-friendly option. The service receives mixed feedback. Many employees are described as very friendly and helpful, with one stock guy going out of his way to search for a product. A staff member at the flower kiosk was also very helpful. However, experiences with checkout staff vary. One customer observed a staff member being too busy in a lengthy conversation to do their job at self-checkout. Another mentions an unpleasant employee with attitude who handles items carelessly. A minor maintenance issue was noted with a broken refrigerator handle that has gone unfixed for months. The store has sufficient parking spaces and restrooms available. Overall, it is a supermarket very highly recommended by many for its selection and generally friendly service.
It is nice to see that Millbrae Safeway is using compostable produce bags - well done! Would it be possible to bring back paper grocery sacks (they are nice for at-home composting) or a more eco-friendly option. I mainly shop at a less convenient Safeway because they have paper bags.

We went there to buy flowers for Mother's Day. Their selection was great and the Korean lady (sorry that I forgot her name) at the kiosk was very helpful in putting together the flowers that we bought.
