Security guards are so bot they denied my friends real, valid id because he suspected it was fake and wasn't from Washington. (She's literally from Ohio...) lost loyal customers today.

Unlike a couple of other reviewers, I love that they have good security at this store. Reality is, we are either paying for security in our food prices or we are covering the cost of stolen products. I personally have seen security stop two theft attempts at this store. The store has excellent produce including a substantial organic section. Good selection of products. Staff is nice and seems to enjoy working there.

When attending the University of Washington and living in the on-campus dorms for Spring 2011 and Autumn 2011 quarters, this QFC in University Village was my most frequented place to pick up groceries off-campus at a good price. It was a walkable distance and had a variety of offerings. Self check-out was consistently fast even when busy and workers were professional. One of my highlights from the 2011 time period was picking out pumpkins and carving them with my roommate. They even had white pumpkins, which as someone who had grown up carving orange pumpkins I decided to go with to try something new. I carved it with a cat pattern, and found it did not last as long as the carved orange pumpkin(s), but it was still fun to try something new.

I wish I would have taken more photos, this place was a really neat place to go shopping! The layout of the store was inviting. It was clean & stocked. We ended up getting wine, cheese, salami & crackers. I appreciated the boxes designated for the $5 or less cheese it allowed us to try cheeses we've never tried before. There was quite a line of people at the deli to get their meat sliced, so we had found pre-sliced salami that was already sliced from the service deli earlier but prepackaged... that was a great idea. Don't get me started about the wine selection it was set up nicely, had all sorts of selections of different varietals. We ended up getting 6 bottles so we could get the additional 10% off. I was impressed with the amount of ports available. The prices on the wine are extremely reasonable and for the bottles that we did pick up We're all at least 4 out of 5. The 2019 Garnacha from Godina was 5/5 and an AMAZING wine.

I came here every week to grab food before going to the gym. I was just asked to leave my gym bag at the door by the security. Hey, if you have no trust to your customers, then fuck off. If you treat your customers as theft, how can your customers ever trust you? I will never come back again.

Their security looks paramilitary. The only thing I've seen them do is stare at women and have their hands in their vest. Incredibly uncomfortable. Doesn't feel any safer, it doesn't feel like a grocery store anymore.

How many times do you need to check my ID to buy a 6-pack? The idiot at the register can’t figure out how to give 75 cents in change back. What a joke.

What a shame! This place has a lovely selection of additive-free tequila but they over price all of the bottles 20- 40$ above retail. I would come here all the time if the prices were fair. I hope the manager reads this and is able to look what these bottles are going for elsewhere. Tapatio, Arette and Cascahuin should not be anywhere near the tag price, especially when that doesn't include our high liqour tax. This price gouging is down right appalling.

Hey QFC, you pay a lot of money to advertise! But, guess what, we've had with your store! Went to buy an ad item, the self-check cashier did not know how to write a raincheck. We told him, we'd help him if he brought the form. Then he said he didn't know where they were located. So, we called the store after we got home and a person in charge texted a raincheck to our phone. Next time to the store, showed the text to the cashier and a "manager" (young man with attitude) said "You can't use that because we have no proof that you won't use it again". What? So now we're trying to scam you for an item on a raincheck? Your total disrespect and lack of trust means we won't, and don't, need to shop at your store again. We are truly over your constant continuing rudeness after several years of shopping there. There are plenty of better choices nearby so GOODBYE!

Do not go here. Not that the liquor store is bad. Rather the neighborhood is not a good place. Pick a diff hood to get drink from.... seriously!

Best selection of liquor in the state. This is where bartenders come for obscure items and brands. No wine or beer - those are in the main QFC around the corner (selection not that good).

The customer service is pretty bad almost every time I visit this location. I was in the self check out line and the staff was rude and unhelpful. When a product couldn't be processed, the staff member basically ripped the product out of my hand and walked away. It was obvious that they didn't want to help me and it made me feel as if I was a burden. Though the store has a lot of food options, it doesn't outweigh the countless bad experiences I've had with the staff here. I normally take my business to Trader Joe's at this point because they're always kind and helpful.

Unconscionable lack of customer service at QFC University Village. We have been customers for decades. And yet...I had spinal fusion surgery 3+ wks ago and rely on a cold therapy machine to help to control pain. My husband "feeds" the machine blocks of ice 24hrs a day to keep it going. He has been doing this now for three wks. buying ice from QFC 4-6 times a week. -On Wed. he bought all of the blocks available at the store and was told another shipment would arrive today.-We phoned this morning and was told it was not yet in. Fine.-He waited and trusted. Then he phoned this afternoon, told someone what he needed and why, told the whole story, and asked the person to actually go and look. The person returned to say they had blocks of ice. -They didn't. Eventually, some sort of store manager apologized and my husband is now searching the north end of Seattle for blocks of ice, having waited for the QFC we have patronized for decades to be true to their word.**I am just so disappointed in QFC! It seems as though, since they began to be absorbed into the enormous Kroeger company, they have become more concerned about sales and pushing their Kroeger products, and less and less concerned about honestly servicing their customers

I bought the squid tentacles at this location and cooked them earlier tonight and ended up with the green apple splatters that nearly left me airborne off the toilet. What if I was walking outside or downtown when the bowel movement hit me? VERY disappointed. stay away from the seafood section.
