QFC

We shopped here a couple of times on our visit to Seattle - we chose this market as it was walkable from our hotel and had excellent hours. Upon arrival, it was interesting that the store is sunken - you take a flight of stairs down and enter the market. There's also an elevator if you have a stroller or mobility concerns. The staff here was super kind, especially the girl in the specialty cheese section. She offered us samples of pretty much anything we were curious about, and we ended up choosing some excellent local cheeses for an in-room charcuterie at our hotel. There was one super spicy habanero and a cave-aged with crystals that really stood out. Prices were eh, a little high, but that's what's to be expected these days I suppose. I will say, if you're interested in Theo Chocolates (locally made in Seattle & the bars make great souvenirs/gifts), we found the QFC to have a great selection of their bars at excellent prices - more than half what you'd pay at the Theo factory. We stocked up on several to hand out to friends & family as gifts, and I believe they were even on sale in-store that week. Highly recommend! The cashiers were all kind and one young man gave us some great recommendations for things to do in the evening - he himself was a college student and transplant from out-of-state. Always good to ask around to the locals. Definitely stop by to pick up some groceries if you're planning to be in town a few days - we found it to be worthwhile.

This supermarket is a good place to find most of the daily life items. Prices are good. If you have card, several items have discounts. Getting card is easy and there is no fee for the card. Also there is a way to make your own fresh peanut and almond butter.

This place seems like it’s going down hill. Half the time I go no one is working the deli and they have a sign up saying to come back tomorrow. This is at maybe 1pm. It’s to the point where I have to call ahead to make sure people are working the deli that day if I want meat sliced. No other store in the area has this issue and they don’t seem like they care to fix it. Been going on for at least two months now…

The layout of this store is terrible. It's not very clean. The staff is pretty surly and the management is awful. They start announcing "the store will be closing in 45 minutes" and then proceed to start a countdown that gets more and more obnoxious. Oh...the meat department has zero selection and the produce department isn't much better. OH! They're always out of carts! Despite the fact they usually have a security person, they allow homeless people to constantly make off with all the carts! I've had to leave the store more than once because they didn't have a cart and I needed to buy more than I could carry.
