This Safeway is convenient for living in Estes park. The only down fall is the summer months. Lord this place gets bought out like crazy. I've never seen so many bare shelves that didn't involve a natural disaster lol. Hey they run w it though and try their best to keep it stocked. During summer months if you don't have to come here avoid it unless it's your only option. Employees are always so helpful and the place is always clean. I can't complain really. This is a good store especially for the high volume

Decently stocked. Great outer departments and staff. Safeway is one of the best places to get your staples in Estes Park, especially for tourists.

Wow!!! Paolina was amazing!!! She went above and beyond and is the sweetest person. She definitely deserves a raise. I have never been treated so kindly. I never made a yelp review but she was so nice I just had to repay some of the kindness. Thank you Paolina!!

Very long lines and almost empty shelves. I imagine this is what it was like to shop in the former Soviet Union.

This is the only grocery store in the area and it was packed every time we went there. Yes we are tourists and needed to buy some things for our week stay in a VRBO. Because it's tourist heavy, anytime you shop during the day, no matter what day, its crowded. Husband searched high and low for a cold coke but only Pepsi was available. Produce was ok. Most items were available on the shelves. We shopped late on a Sunday night when we first arrived and that was, by far, the least busy time.

Pretty average store but seems very popular with tourists like us . We stopped mutiple times during our trip to pick up some supplie and mostly found everything with a few exceptions in every visit . The store just felt messy and unkempt,could be the high foot traffic. The lines ran really long and it took forever to get billed .They have a starbucks and pharmacy inside as well.

Great little market in heart of Estes Park. Pretty good selection of items to fill your pantry for a week or A month. Lines can be a little long but if your in EP your probably on Vacay so relax a little... Cashiers andOther patrons were all interesting to talk to

We came to stop here at Safeway while in Estes Park for a few days. No - we really didn't need anything from here, except for some Palisade Peaches. Also, we thought they might have sold one of my favorite oatmeal brands, but I then realized that the company went out of business. Welp.With that said, this Safeway seems to be serving the tourist town of Estes Park. This spot seems apt for those staying in cabins or anywhere with a kitchen (i.e. the Residences). We weren't around long enough for that. I'm sure people will stock up food to picnic in Rocky Mountain National Park. That seems like the smartest idea. I didn't see much of an issue with stock. I didn't look for specific foods, but I think this place is alright, I guess. I'm sure that stock may get tight during the summer season, so be mindful of that.

Has most of what you need but lacks quantity in the fresh vegetable department. Lots of juice, basic cheese, fruit. Deli is on the small side with meats. Sells wine, and there is a liquor store in the same shopping center for harder stuff. It's always crowded and lines are long. Seems to cater to the tourist crowd who are cooking in cabins and on grills. Okay if you are staying for a week. It does have the most beautiful view from the parking lot.

All the other reviewers are spot on. This place is terrible - filthy, low stock, rude unhelpful employees, outrageous prices. When I first moved to Estes and attempted to transfer my prescriptions, the pharmacy wouldn't even answer the phone. Ever. I lived in Estes Park for a year, after a couple of miserable shopping trips to this place, I started doing my grocery shopping in Loveland, where the two Safeway stores along highway 34 are notably better. Not perfect, but better. What Estes Park needs more than another tee shirt and taffy shop along main street is a full service grocer to compete with this poorly run operation. Kings Soopers perhaps. There's plenty of space at the east end of Estes for such a store. But the residents won't go for it. They seem to like bad service, high prices, and limited options.
we call it Sleezeway. Richard the cashier is rude unless you are young, tank top, lots of eye lashes. I do not bag well due to an injury, he said he would help but then ignored me. items fell out of bags, broke open ( yeah bears). A nice young man helped but several items ruined. probably a bit of ageism here plus rudeness to locals. Shop before you get to Estes.

Horrible Store! Grumpy staff, dirty and empty. Bring in a supermarket that cares!!!!!

Saw a large mouse scurry under one of the aisles in the middle of the day. Couldn't believe my eyes.

This was about the only grocery store we could find. The lines were very long, and their selection on feminine healthcare products was pretty antiquated. And that's coming from a large man.

this is the worst experience I have ever had at any grocery store. They claimed to be open until 3 PM on Christmas and tried to close before the given time. They weren't letting people into the store and were also kicking people out.They even threatened to put hands on people. If you didn't know, it is actually illegal to close before a promised time. I would not recommend going here and would go to other supermarkets in town.
