We asked readers to share their favorite grocery stores and the answers didn’t disappoint. While most said Market Basket’s prices couldn’t be beat, there were some diverse responses. Here’s a look at some of them:
“Market Basket for most shopping. But the hidden gem is Aldi’s—even cheaper than Market Basket. Too bad there aren’t any in the Lakes Region. Aldi’s produce is awesome! — Mary Anne Sopelak
“I LOVE Market Basket! Their prices are good and the food is always fresh and tasty.” – Eleanor Baskam
“Shaw’s. It has the best vegan options, in my opinion. And for a non-vegan treat, it carries (seasonally) paczki. No other store in the area does.” – Linda Milligan
“Market Basket at exit 17 is my favorite grocery store. The store is very clean, employees are very nice and supervisors appear to be nice! Customer service is exceptional no matter who you connect with—the aisles are wider and shelves/ products/ displays/ signs are easier to read. Especially kind to older adults!” – Paul Bundy
“Hannaford—it is close, has most everything I need, has a pharmacy that I use, and friendly staff.” – Laura Sniderman
“My fave, go-to grocery store in NH is Market Basket, hands-down. They have a huge selection of fresh veggies and fruit, along with fresh fish and shell-fish.” —Susan Sherrouse
