Market Basket has great fresh food, including organic produce, at remarkably low prices. The people who work there are friendly and efficient. It's so popular that it can be crowded, so it's best to avoid peak hours.

First, you should know that people LOVE Market Basket, so presumably most people do not share my qualms with the store. I've only been to this location, but shopping here really tests my patience - even though I'm usually someone who enjoys grocery shopping! The aisles are too narrow to accommodate two-way cart traffic, and most shoppers don't seem particularly attentive/proactive about not holding people up. Perhaps this happens at other shops too, but it is extremely noticeable here because of the narrow aisles. I avoid getting a cart if at all possible, and I've stopped waiting for people to realize they're in the way. At this point, I just squeeze around people or scoot carts aside as politely as I can manage. The selection is good and the prices are better than many grocery stores in the area, so I'll continue to go for some especially well priced items when I'm nearby. I don't make special trips here though, because it can be frustrating to get around the store even during slow hours. The register staff are helpful; they try to keep lines moving and offer to bag your groceries.

Good selection of food at an affordable price. Produce is usually good. Sometimes the kale/arugula gets slimy after a few days. It’s usually hectic, I would never shop with a cart, only a basket. People are often not aware of their surroundings so it can be stressful. Parking isn’t great but doable during less busy hours. And the frozen fruit isn’t with the rest of the frozen stuff which is weird

Very busy grocery store, but they do move people quickly in and out of the checkout lines simply because they have all of them open! Which is a rarity these days and a delight! I would recommend this location, seemingly fair prices and super convenient to the community around it. Parking can be a bit of a mess so would recommend walking if you can.

Best price and good quality. The selection of fruits and vegetables is amazing. The have products from local farmers and the organic and non-organic options. You can find products for almost any cuisine: latin american, Japanese, Thai, Chinese. Try to avoid the weekends, it's pretty crowded.

Today is the first time I have been to the market basket. I was amazed to see the collections, I just loved the store. Very affordable price. A well recommended place to buy your groceries and all. Would love to be there again!

Extremely busy…. One of the smaller Market Baskets I’ve ever seen, usually these stores are ginormous!! That being said, the store was okay, not that much of a selection (especially for soda) and the prices are a little higher than what I’m used to seeing. Store was clean though, just too much congestion with small/narrow aisles. It’s okay, nothing spectacular. I asked for help & the gentleman answered without making eye contact

It is no wonder that this store is always busy. Large selection and good prices. They have everything from TP to produce. high volume and helpful busy staff ensure freshness.
