Market Basket

Who doesn’t like Market Basket?
I have yet to find someone else, besides a few people in my neighborhood who don’t like it because it’s too far (come on Market Basket, open up some more locations south of Boston, preferably in my area). Anyway, besides that everyone I knows is in love with Market Basket.
Yes, it may have longer checkout waits than the local Stop&Shop, and doesn’t have the food as a local Whole Foods, but consistently has amazing prices, and pretty good quality. Definitely the best option for this area of Wilmington, yet I still prefer shopping at a store with more technology, and a nice store (yes, this is a new Market Basket, but Market Basket should but some more effort in the design of their new stores. No problems with the exterior, but the interior isn’t up to the speed of Stop&Shop yet). Will continue to visit this Market Basket, once or twice per year (every November, when I come up to Wilmington), but will continue to do the majority of my shopping at Stop&Shop. For people who live in the area, this is a great option for a few small items, or a HUGE grocery shopping. Conveniently location on Routes 129 & 38, Main Street in Wilmington. Huge parking lot, large store. 5 stars.

My GPS actually brought me in front of Market Basket. I needed vegetables for dinner and I was in the neighborhood. I had been to couple of other Market Basket before, this was not a choice i would have made myself. I was some what disappointed that my GPS had chosen this grocery store for me, I had found the other locations over priced and a very unpleasant shopping experience. I’m glad now I gave them another chance. This location was super large, very organized and lots of items on sale. They had many registers open and although its Mothers Day tomorrow, I was in and out very fast.

There is something very wrong going on at Market Basket. Out of the blue Market Basket is now demanding that you show photo ID if you try to pay with American Express, but not Visa or MasterCard (even if the card is signed as mine is). When asked the store manager said he was not aware of a data breach, that this policy came from headquarters, and that this was for my protection. If Market Basket wanted to protect my data they would have decent encryption and not the insecure, outdated garbage they have now. Obviously given the choice between dumping Market Basket or American Express I’m dumping Market Basket and switching to Wegmans and Lucci, both of whom have secure systems that accept American Express and Apple and don’t have to demand photo ID. If you want to continue shopping at Market Basket you better check your statements and credit reports carefully.

Old fashioned, not enough diversity in products and the cashiers talk too much with each other.

So happy to have this store back!
Best prices on groceries. Period!

The prices are fantastic for what you get. Let’s face it, in these economic times keeping food costs down is key, and Market Basket is a great way to do just that!

Went to pick– up egg cartons that my wife asked them to save for her. The guy in the dairy dept gave me the business because my wife didn’t get them the day before and never mentioned why he no longer had them but kept complaining that she never showed on time. When my wife called him after i got back he completely changed his tone and was nice to her.
What a way to treat a customer that has been going to this store for about 30 years of more…

It’s a good store — clean
I wish there was a bigger selection of vegan options but I still shop here all the time :-)

This could easily be the sister store to the one in Tewksbury. It’s very similar, not quite identical, and I think a little better (I wasn’t inundated with tables of snack foods such as sliced poundcake in the front of the store, for example). It doesn’t have all the fancy specialty stations some of the newest super Market Baskets have, but it has just about everything else I’ve come to expect: wide aisles, brightly lit, well-​stocked shelves, lots and lots of registers open (most have a packer), and an always-​busy staff. Prices for basic items, sales, and loss-​leaders are generally competitive. I was pretty satisfied with the meat and dairy areas, though I would have actually liked to see the produce area even larger. Be on your toes driving through the parking lot, especially the center path.

Their bakery puts out surprisingly great desserts! Their prices are reasonable, the store is always clean, the lines aren’t too long at check out and I can buy almost anything I need there. I do wish they offered more vegan/​vegetarian food supplies.

I recently went to this market basket instead of the one in reading because I was shopping at TjMaxx. Everything was great about this store aside from the customer service.
The store was dead compared to the always busy reading store. When I went to check out at the register the employee helping me named Shawn was extremely rude. He did not even address the fact that I asked up to the register. The expression on his face looked miserable. After he finished ringing up my order and running my card, I said «thanks have a nice day» and his response was to say «yup» without even looking at me.
I have never seen a market basket customer act in any manner but extremely friendly. The way Shawn dealt with me and my purchase was extremely off putting. As someone who works in retail I understand having to work when you’re having a bad day but this young man did not represent the company well.

This Market Basket is a nice one.
It isnt crowded, customers arent crazy.
I always find what I need here. The produce section is always fresh. I mostly shop at Market Basket for fruit/​veg. I appreciate the growing organic section.
Alot of the other locations are lacking in that department. They tend to have minimal selection or what they do have is not fresh.
I have never had a bad experience at this location. It’s also located near TJ Maxx and I like TJ Maxx.

Nice store it was built new recently

This is a Market Basket in the relatively new Wilmington plaza across the street from Staples. The parking lot is vastly superior compared to the south Tewksbury location. It’s easy to get in and out, and the lot is clean. Like most Market Basket locations, the prices are great! The selection is also much more consistent to Tewksbury’s – when I go shopping here, I find what’s on my list almost every time. Furthermore, the interior is kept relatively clean, and the staff is pretty polite and helpful. It is a bit squishy by the registers though.
If you’re somewhere between the Market Basket in south Tewksbury and this Market Basket, the choice is obvious!
