Supermarkets near Shoreline, WA

“The old "Thriftway" organization of grocery stores here in the NW are no more. The only Thriftway store name is the one at Ballinger of which is now a lone family run store with not much clout to buy big like the big stores and sell cheaper, like the big stores can.

Yes, prices are higher here but their quality is good. Apparently they do a super-big wine market throughout the NW and western states. Produce is always like perfect but more than you will pay at the big stores.

Very convenient for all who live nearby and this population is growing.”

“Nice people from Gambia, they have a lot of stuff from Africa like Nigeria and Ghana foods and some Asian/middle eastern foods. Halal friendly meats, lots of clothes and skin products”

“I had an exceptional experience at WinCo Foods a few days ago. While using the self-checkout, a very kind and sweet cashier came over from her checkout station to assist me. I was in a hurry to get home and accidentally left my phone at the self-checkout. As I was walking to my car in the parking lot, she ran outside and called out, “Sir, your phone!” I was so relieved, as I thought I had lost it. Her honesty and helpfulness truly saved the day. It was one of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had. Thank you again to the wonderful cashier!”

“These people are nice. I like this store and this neighborhood despite it's shortcoming. Very helpful and friendly staff. Unique food selection (if you have not been to a PCC). High quality goods organic, natural, and locally sourced. It's basically NPR if NPR was a grocery store. It's a CO-OP, SO THEY partner with farms and manufacturer to cut out the middle man and bring you affordable artisan goods, food stuffs and produce.

You know, NPR without the donation drive. Actually. I'm not 100 that they don't have donation drive to sustain themselves, I'm not that informed about their business goings-on and what-not.

Ciao”

“This is a local grocery store, and more looks like an Indian grocery shop.In general, I like this place, but finding the price of items on the shelves is impossible. For example, in the fruit section, most things are without price Label.”

“Very clean, profuse like broccoli lettuce and cucumbers cleaned every few minutes by a sprinkler thing to keep fresh, a nice place to shop close to residential areas. Easy to navigate and mostly things I need are on sale.”

“Nice grocery store. Good soup selection. As always, seafood soups -Cioppino and Clam Chowder- are located in the seafood section, separate from other soups. I couldn't find an indoor seating area, looks like they just have a few picnic tables outside by the main road.”
