This is one of the nicer grocery stores on Kamloops’ south shore. Even though it isn’t the closest one to my house, I usually end up here when I need to do a bigger shopping trip. First off, I find this store bright, open, and clean. All of these things are important to me when purchasing food. The aisles are spacious so you don’t have to worry about bumping carts. Most importantly, the produce department is always stocked with fresh fruits and vegetables. It’s very off-putting to go to a grocery store and have to pick through bruised, rotten fruit. Compared to other stores in Kamloops, this Safeway tends to have a great variety of goods. I’m rarely disappointed that they don’t have a specialty item that I’m looking for. The only area they sometimes lose points in is the produce department. There have been a couple times where something basic(e.g. green peppers) was unavailable when I stopped by. Finally, the staff here are always helpful and welcoming. I never feel like I’m imposing when I ask for help finding someone and the check-out cashiers are efficient and friendly.
