It all started with my Dad, Darrell, who came from a long line of butchers and was a master at his trade by a young age. He managed the meat department of a local grocery store in Port Coquitlam, BC when I was growing up where I used to help him on Saturdays, cleaning up around the shop and putting fresh sawdust on the floors as was done in those days.
Safeway offers farm fresh local products, supports a range of charitable programs, and owns several manufacturing and food processing plants. Please call store for pharmacy hours.
This is my "Go To" grocery store. This is a great grocery store! Always stocked shelves and helpful staff. I have found the floral and deli departments to always be helpful and efficient. It is true, you must always phone the local store when sending flowers. I frequently send flowers long distance via Safeway, but always phone the local store during local business hours.Read more
