Von’s

as an average, just okay, would be two on most experiences, but bumped up for the most recent visit (the checkin). clerk was helpful, even pointing me to something i was after and missed (though why the mini sourdough rounds are ONLY up front by the soup, and not also in the back with bread, who knows). let the guy behind me (who only had a sandwich and chips) go while i grabbed the bread; turns out they know him (probably an employee), and he’s jamming everything up over the deal they have for sandwich, chips and drink, even though he doesn’t have a drink.
other times, the checkers are very disinterested, and i’ve had one of the baggers swipe a basket i was after right from in front of me, and when i comment i wanted it, tell me «too bad» and laugh.
i usually aim for other locations instead, but since i was in the area…

Finally, a cashier who smiles at your face, leaving you with a good experience, her name is Cassy (a black straight hair beautiful woman) … However, any product that is not «Safeway» brand is highly priced. I never understand why employees or any other person when crossing by you would say «excuse me «even if there’s plenty of room to pass by…

One of the best Vons stores Iv shopped at. I travel constantly so iv seen my share of bad stores.

This Vons tends to be well stocked, clean, with fresh produce and meats. I rarely find items out of code (compared to other stores and locations), and can usually find a clerk to help if I need assistance finding something.
One thing I like about this particular store is that the employees tend to be friendly and courteous (not inconvenienced by the customer’s presence), whether it is the beginning of the day, during the afternoon rush, or the day before a major food holiday. I really hope management treats its employees well, because they greatly deserve it.
I’m a fan of Vons Club coupons and if I plan my trip in advance (avoid impulse buys), I can save a lot compared to the competitors across the street. As long as the quality of the fresh items remains good, and the prices remain fair, I’ll stay a regular customer.

This is the store where you’ll find me about 3 times a week-​sometimes more. Here’s a list of why:
Full Deli with a soup station
Starbucks Coffee Shop
Florist Shop
Seafood Counter
Butcher Shop
Bakery
Red Box Video Stop
Wine and Spirits Section
What’s not to love? Anything I’m looking for, whether it’s matzo cracker or fish heads for stock, free range chicken, organic fruit and veggies (more than you even knew existed); star fruit and dragon fruit. Shall I go on? One specialty item after another. This is why they charge the big bucks.
Excellent service and anything you can imagine you can find… or ask and they’ll get it for you.
Now, you may think that this place is over priced (which it can get pricy) but if you sign up for the Von’s Club and get their Club Card, you get deep discounts. I’ve actually saved money shopping here as opposed to buying my items at discount stores. I don’t advise buying veggies here, because they are over priced and discounts are few and far between but if you don’t want to go shopping all over this is a good place to pick up organic veggies.
I love the florist area. They have someone there who can make you a flower arrangement or advise you. They offer a lot of choices and their prices are mild compared to going to a florist shop. I love to pick up a bunch of flowers for the house and arrange them. It’s pure Zen time.
I love to grab a Starbucks and walk along the neat and organized rows of products while I envision what culinary masterpieces I’ll make.
I like that they have more than one or two ethnic food areas. I really appreciate that they have a section where you can buy foods for Jewish Holidays or every day. I’m not Jewish but I think I was in another life. :)
I could go on and on about Von’s because it’s just a great store and their staff are awesome. But you should come here and see for yourself.

Usually shop at Whole Foods, Lassens, Costco and Trader Joe’s for their Organic food items. Heard that Von’s had a pretty good Organic selection. Their Organic produce items were very clearly separated from the conventional produce. Didn’t have time to shop the isles for other organics on this visit.

Don’t buy from the hot deli late in the evening, the chicken was dried out and inedible, a good manager would have pulled it off sale hours before I bought it.

Came in about 10 o’clock at nite there was palettes everywhere aisles were hard to access employees weren’t very friendly at all

Definitely a cheery bunch for a late hour of the weeknight. It’s weird to go for cooking supply runs at random hours. Shift change was happening and employees were giving their greetings to each other. Picked up a big ass roll of cling wrap (which seems creepy at this hour) and made my way.

Need more cashiers!!!

I had the displeasure of seeing firsthand how the store manager Randy Robertson interacts with customers. He is rude and the biggest a-​hole I have ever seen at this position at a Vons or Safeway. You would think the store manager would set a great example, but apparently not this guy. He was so rude to my friend, for no apparent reason that I had to come online and say my peace. I will avoid this Vons like plague. He is the most unsavory character I’ve had to come into contact with and hopefully I will not have to deal with him again. He has no business working with the public. He has no customer service skills and gives Vons and Safeway a bad name. As a lifelong shopper at Safeway; I will have to look elsewhere for my shopping needs.

The people here are always helpful and seem happy to be working there. They have always greeted me with a smile.
