I have a similar experience with the deli department to the previous reviewer. My crew and I stop every morning at this Albertsons on our way to the airport. We are assigned to a fire fighting helicopter and buy food for the day. I stood at the counter for several minutes, with no one coming to the counter to meet me. Several employees were working behind the counter however. Finally one guy at the meat slicer shouted over his shoulder that he would wait on me when he was done slicing. After several more minutes I inquired about a possible time estimate, since I had to get to work. That's when I got lots of attitude from him. He said "Look, I got All this meat I gotta cut up first!" So I left. Since I'm not the first one to experience this, maybe Albertsons needs to designate someone to provide customer service in the deli, especially in the mornings when they're busy. Everyone else in the store seems nice.

Be careful going to this store. Make. sure that you have everything you purchased because if you forgot something at the store you're not going to get it back. I bought some items this morning and few hours later realized I forgotten the beer I'd bought on the counter. Called the store and they claim I left nothing on the counter. The store was nearly empty when we were there at 7am so I really can't believe that they didn't find an item that was left behind.

Horrible place to shop. This store used to be a wonderful store before the labor union strike but ever since that strike ended ALL the employees appear to Hate their job. They could not care less about customer satisfaction. The prices at the store are higher than other grocery stores and you really need to watch out for the occasional item that will be outrageously priced up to 3X what competitors charge for the identical item. The quality of the meat in the butcher shop is mostly "select" which is good for soup or stew only. Go elsewhere and get choice or prime. The lines to checkout are always long and I've never seen them add a cashier to speed things along. Bottom line is that "They just don't care" save the aggravation and shop at Trader Joe's or Costco. If you want a real grocery store, go to San Luis Obispo and shop at Ralphs. What I wouldn't give for a Ralph's. They should bulldoze all the Albertsons and Vonn's and they should start with the Albertsons on Niblick road. I will celebrate when they go bankrupt and all their employees are living in the riverbed.

From Texas on an extended holiday trip to Paso Robles. We rented a house here and spend the evenings cooking dinner after doing tastings. We have been to Albertsons twice since we've arrived (we've been here two days) and although I don't usually rate grocery stores, the staff at this Albertsons have been amazing. They have been helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. At this time of the year it is easy for people to get a little tired of people, no hint of that here.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced at a grocery store and in a deli department. I was standing in line behind a lady to get fried chicken. A female deli employee behind the counter about 30 ft away shouted can I help you. I shouted back I just needed fried chicken. She responds in a rude tone in front of the customers and employees as if she was lecturing a child and said there's a line and pointed. I didn't respond back and instead just left my grocery cart and walked out of the store. I was already in line and didn't see the point of arguing with this employee or spend a single dime in this store after that treatment.

Melissa's Dried Chanterelles - Lousy. I fo ollowed directions - they never reconstituted. And after cooking, they were still dry and didn't taste like chanterelles. Never again wirth this product.

Extremely friendly, especially us closing down the store.

I tried to buy a bottle of wine but they wouldn’t sell it to me at the self check out even though other states do sell alcohol at self check outs. They apologized and told me to take it up with my governor and my reply was “Don’t apologize to me, I don’t drink. Be upset with your governor for silly laws that prevent you from generating income because I am not waiting in another line to have someone else check my ID”.

Never buy their tuna sandwich. It's overpowered by dill pickle juice and mayonnaise. The tuna was hard to taste (or find).

Yes we love our Paso Albertsons. Steven makes an amazing sandwich in the deli and Linda knows everything you want to know about wine, etc.

1. Deli I used to go to the Deli to get a sandwich made either in the late afternoon/early evening or early in the morning around 730a for a plain turkey sandwich with just mayo. There is consistently the same issues. In the afternoon, they run out of bread or lunch meat. In the morning I am told they can't make it because the person that makes them called in sick. I'm told about the pre made sandwiches. I don't want a pre made sandwich. I'd have to open it and take everything off except the turkey and mayo, deal with the mess and try to re wrap it on my way to school. So Monday morning of this week I thought I'd give the Deli a try. Nope, same excuse-someone called in sick. I've gotten items from other areas of the Deli and had no problems.

Great customer service I couldn't get app to load on my Obama phone so he gave me same as coupon digital only Discount at register at like 10 mins to closing :-) thanks again for great customer service

I ordered a champagne cake & a fudge cake for my birthday. Excellent. Moist, fresh, delicious & ready on time. I've ordered multiple times from this bakery & I've never been disappointed. Service is wonderful & the bakery staff is pleasant to work with. Price is always great. Looking forward to another celebration 🎉 thank you 💚

Sometimes the prices can be a little high, but if you look at the just for u app, and use the deals wisely (with coupons), you can come out like a bandit. I use the fresh pass also because it gives discounts on the O organics brands which often times are better than the national brands. I like to use the rewards points to look up items that are free or to use for the discounts on my purchases. You can use them for the discount on gas at Chevron, but I have to wait for deals with a different app I use and I combine them together. Overall, Albertsons is really nice if you're looking for a specialty item because other stores tend to not have as many keto, gluten free, organic, vegan, etc. (My household has a little of everything... A vegan, a diabetic, a lactose intolerant, possible gluten sensitive... It's a bit of a hectic food medley... Haha.) Albertsons makes it easy.

Omg the line at the meat counter got 10 people in the line out of now where. Michael the meat service guy got everyone done in 5 minutes or less. I was blown away about how fast and Friendly he was. Working in customer service for 20 years, I can tell you that kind of help is hard to come by. Totally would shop here for my meat if I lived in the area

Came into Albertsons this evening and had the sweetest cashier. She was so helpful. She helped the customer before me and was so kind and helpful during my transaction. Her name was Amani. And I really enjoyed going into the store this evening which can be like being on auto pilot. But it was nice to see someone so joyful she really went above and beyond! Thank you.!

The customer service here is awful. I bag my own groceries and try to be as low maintenance as possible. No one thanks you for your business or tries to help you in any way. If you can’t find something, you are on your own. Also they advertise sale prices they don’t honor at the register. I hate this place.

Usually i have a a great experience, but I also only come in late nite and the staff is awesome on closing shift. but this time of day it was horrible. I had a lot of groceries in a hand basket wanted to carry in that to car to unload and return manager stereotyped me and claimed I would probably steal the basket (I was in a front row parking spot 20 feet from door so I would be in view whole time which I pointed out to him). How rude to accuse then when asked for help to car because I used self checkout he refused to assist or allow anyone to help me to my car with groceries... hmmm where has the good ol' hometown kindness gone? Sorry but your incorrect sterotyping of me can stay right where it came from... and this horrible experience I refuse to not share it. Not everyone is a bad seed, nor a thief... kinda put off on going back here. Also, ordered Starbucks in -store... very disappointed... it took forever and wasn't that great. Usually, this place is one of the best Starbucks in north slo county, but not this visit... how sad. And staff working sbux allowed other Albertsons staff priority in receiving their drink way before me which she had ordered after me and also before two other customers ahead of me... and not only that, she loudly talked to barista the whole time she attempted to work, distracting her and slowing the process down even more than they already were moving... hmm isn't this against store policy? I would think so and if not it should be. Very unsatisfied and even more shocked at the failed customer service I recieved. Sorry but I tell it like it is.

This store has wonderful and helpful staff, prime cuts of meat, fresh produce, and they always have what I need. I know I can always get excellent quality when it comes to the Signature Brands. The Signature Brand Coffees are delicious and priced reasonably.

The store is quite big and clean too. The salespersons are also very friendly and polite. However, coming to the choice of groceries, the store doesn't boast of much. I wanted A2 milk, but had to go for a different brand. I wanted Fosters beer, but no trace of it. I also looked for a smaller set of non-beef sausages but had to buy the huge pack of 30!! I am not sure about the choices of local populace, but Paso Robles depends more on folks like me from a different place for its economic health. The management has to ponder about. All in all a good place.

Great produce and meats, as long as you can handle the high prices. There are some items though that actually are cheaper when compared to Smart and Final.

I love going to the deli and seeing Steven behind the counter making everyone smile. Such a bubble personality that brings everyone together. Thank you Steven for all your help.

Nice employees but it is so packed, it's really hard to get what you want. Wonderful adult beverage section. Carries a lot of local beer, wine and liquor.

Carolyn in drive up and go... always pays attention to detail and shops for me like I would shop for myself I appreciate her very much. Nathaniel in produce when I come in always has a smile and a welcoming greeting very nice young man.

This locale has always had the freshest produce in Paso, including many organic options.There is a very good meat and seafood counter, also deli and bakery. Albertsons is also where I shop for, and recommend to all,the best selection of local and imported wines. The professional clerks all seem to go that extra mile.

Good source for shopping but popular so long lines. Self checkout is great and faster than the cashier lines but doesn't allow you to self checkout alcohol. 🤷‍♂️Which is lame because there is a clerk there to assist with your process and could just as easily check your ID as the machine would stop you. Easy as 123.
