Bashas' is a nice grocery store with a good selection, including a well-liked produce section and fresh fruits and vegetables. The meat selection is good with reasonable prices and quite good sales. The bakery is also highlighted as one of the best. The store maintains a clean atmosphere and is generally well laid out, though some find it organized a bit strangely at first. Staff are consistently described as friendly and accommodating. Compared to busier stores in other areas, getting there is easier on the nerves and it is usually not packed with shoppers. Prices are comparable to more populated areas, though it is a bit more expensive than some competitors. Shoppers appreciate buying local. The self-checkout receives mixed reviews; it is sometimes called not efficient and finicky, with specific technical issues noted, though one reviewer later found it great except during certain hours. A final note mentions that waiting until the end of the weekend can limit the available selection, especially in produce.
