Haggen Northwest Fresh

Quality food but on the pricy side. They raised their $20 dinners for two to $25 so not really a good deal anymore. SUSHI WENDSDAYS is a much better deal here than down the street at Fred Meyers. Haggens sushi is bigger and a better value. Best kept secret: This Stores Fish&Chips are the very best in town...no joke! Even better than the Haggens on College way.

Haggen is a mixed bag. Since being taken over by the food chain Albertsons they are hugely overpriced. Some items cost 30% more than can be found elsewhere. However, they have managed to continue the old Haggen tradition of selling local items from the Pacific Northwest, and this remains a great feature. They are open at hours when most places are closed as well. Additionally the Haggen stores that still have a Deli offer good food. So in a pinch I will go to Haggen, but I do avoid buying the massively overpriced items they stock.

I have been going to this store for 20 years and I have never complained. But now I have to say that this store is so depressing now and no one smiles or makes eye contact. It's like they are angry for you getting in their line to check out your groceries. It is a bad experience over all. I wish that whatever is bothering everyone would be said out loud. I am giving up.
