Check the expiration dates on everything before you buy it. This store does a horrible job managing their stock. I am disappointed every single time I shop there. The prices are higher than many other stores in the area, yet Ive been there and seen yogurt that was 14 days past the expiration date, a tower of parmesean cheese all expired and myriad other foods. One time I bought eggs without checking the expiration date only to get home and realize that they were expired. I talked to a front-end manager about the expired yogurt which I saw when I was there about a week ago. He basically told me that the store managers dont allow them to staff sufficiently to check the stock on the shelves. He did not apologize and he did not say he would go remove the expired yogurt so that customers wouldnt buy it. Instead, he told me he was going to get a different job because he hated working there. This store is an abomination of a grocery store. Avoid at all costs.

Hands down the worst experience of my life in a grocery store. A toddler spilled his goldfish after checkout and the cashier, Sandra, proceeded to scream at and belittle the woman and child who barely spoke English. She continued this verbal abuse until they were out the door then continued to trash them after they had left. This cashier has been there for a while and every time I go there she is being absolutely horrible to customers. It is a despicable that she is still allowed to be employed there after being serially rude to customers. I am mortified for the mother and the child who probably are thoroughly shaken from the ordeal , since I am and I was a third party.

I love this market, over and above the convenience of it being close to my home. The manager and employees are friendly and helpful.....they go out of their way to help and ask ......the store is clean....for the most part the prices are competitive....some things I can get less expensively elsewhere, and elsewhere is not to far either....the fresh fish and seafood is always fresh and much variety....I have a lot of out of town company and need seafood and fish in season.....something my guests hope for in Boston!!.....In 2 1/2 years Ive never had a bad seafood or fish order at this market.......the produce is always fresh and the fruit competitive price wise....

This is my favorite place to shop. They are always super clean, have a wide variety of different foods and their produce is fresh..which is very important to me. If they dont have something you want or need, they will order it for you or give suggestions to help you find the idem your searching for. The customer service is wonderful. They go out of their way to help out with anything you may need while shopping. Last thing, they get shoppers right through the lines & out the doors. Ive never had to wait long even during holiday seasons. I wont shop anywhere else..A+ for them.

Everyone here was veey nice especially at the deli & register. The subs that were made for my eldeely client he ordered was very fresh & abundant.Friendly service and just wish groceries stores like this had half the already made hot or cold food selection as star mkt had .Wish there was one in the Attle area cause there salad bar and just making fresh subs to order plus alot of already made hot food like turkey dinner looked great!

This store has an extensive selection of a wide variety of items. Most notably, they have a butcher counter with prime grade beef, which is usually something you will only find in pricier butcher shops. I did have to deduct one star because some of the prices are a little expensive, as they are higher than Shaws locations I have been to such as Burlington MA and Nashua NH

Avoid this place at all costs. Their produce and dairy are sub par - just today I purchased some cheese and its covered in mold. They rarely have enough staff working checkout lines, theres no such thing as a "quick trip" at this store. Finally, their prices arent even competitive. Save yourself and go another 15 minutes up the road to Wegmans.

Employees are helpful, most are friendly with a couple I regularly avoid. Shout-out to Armand for always being super cool! The place is clean, but I think its so overpriced. Ive transitioned to Market Basket and come to Star for just a couple brands that I love that I cant find anywhere else.

Our neighborhood supermarket. Prices tend to be a little higher than competitors but location is very convenient. Produce quality is pretty variable so shop carefully. Excellent chicken (rotisserie, grilled or fried!) in the deli.

This place has good prices on most of their items. Be sure to look for the sales. I used their produce section and my lettuce had lots of sand in it. The deli was very nice and had decent prices and selection.

So badly organized, sauces are put in different isles, spent half an hour wandering there looking for a sauce and tahini, second one never found as preserves are in different places as well.

Never enough help, always lines at check out. Need to double check dates on products as well. They are always selling short coded products.

This store lets ice cream MELT and then refreezes it - grainy, crystallized and potential bacteria contamination. DONT SHOP THERE.

Matt Hansen

Expensive groceries, moderate selection, slow checkouts. Everything you hate in a grocery store in one place.

Just your typical Shaws. Nothing amazing about it, but generally I dont have issues when I go here.

Heather Bauer

Its a solid local supermarket but has some limited inventory that can get pretty annoying

I went to pick up a few items but the store was clean and had good variety.
