This is one of Market Basket's newer stores the selection is good, prices are reasonable, staff is friendly. It is nice and clean the deli doesn't smell foul like the older stores in less affluent areas. Great Pizza and prepared foods.
MB is a bit lower cost than other large chains - a bit less than Stop&Shop (using the occasional coupons there) and more than a Wal-Mart or Costco which matches their respective quality levels.
Market Basket is my favorite supermarket. Everything is reasonably priced. The products is fresh. They have good cut flowers that last a long time. If I shop anywhere else, my food expenses are 20% higher
MB also forgoes a lot of specials and coupons. Instead, they price everything a tad lower which works out the same, or a bit less cost, in the long run with less hassle over coupons.
Some of their in-house brands for staples like toilet paper, paper towels, etc, are *not* as good as competition like Stop & Shop.
Parking is good at MB with a large lot.
MB checkout is often a problem with large lines at busy times with 3-6 carts queued ahead of you at each station. They also don't have any automation or self-scanning and checkout like S&S. As such, MB doesn't require and doesn't provide a shopper's loyalty card that S&S uses for the automation. So, MB keeps it simple and ends up a few dollars cheaper.
Re the above, we rate both our local Hudson MA MB & S&S supermarkets as 7 out of 10.
Large supermarket in the mid-price range. Long & well-staffed meat/fish counters, though there can be long lines at rush times.
This store is always organized and clean. I enjoy shopping here the employees always go the extra mile to assist me; if I have a question or am looking for something in particular.
If you don't care a lot about particular brands, MB might be the better choice BUT you have to check the produce closely and rummage through their large bins to ensure you get fresh items. S&S produce is much more limited and suffers the same caveat.
Best grocery shopping experience around. Clean, well-lit, friendly staff, great selection, and best of all, great prices withOUT clipping store coupons.
Since MB is closer to us than S&S, we tend to go there more often and visit S&S for their better house brands and selection of some specialty items that MB doesn't carry.
So, it's a toss up. If S&S were closer than MB, we'd go there first, then finish up at MB for anything we didn't find or liked at S&S.
If you only care about lowest price and don't have any preference on speciality brands and don't ind long lines, MB Hudson may be your better bet. As with any place, you still have to always check what you pick closely.
MB specializes in a large selection of "popular" product lines while lacking some of the better, higher end brands.
