The Grocery on Broad is a local neighborhood market in Frog Hollow that offers quality, fresh, and wholesome food. Owned and operated by Forge City Works, it works with Connecticut Foodshare to provide wholesome, fresh food to the community. The store sells Best Yet brands and is open Monday through Saturday from 10 am to 6 pm, closed on Sundays. Permanent membership cards can be obtained Monday to Thursday between 10 am and 4 pm. Customers praise the fresh local produce, noting it as some of the best in a grocery store in a while. The selection of snack foods is small, but there are ample options for basic staple items to cook and bake. Quality of items is phenomenal. An income‑based discount system makes the high‑quality store accessible to everyone. Staff are helpful, knowledgeable, respectful, friendly, and the store is clean. The store also offers premade meals from Fire by Forge for tasty food on the go.
Great pricing, clean welcoming environment, honestly just a huge convenience.

I come to this store so much they know me by now. I get out of work and it’s perfect for my gallon of milk, or already defrosted meat I need to cook for my kids for that day, fresh fruits, cat food for my fur babies. They have a little of everything. And the staff especially the 2 young cashiers have become my favorites.

So glad to have this right in my backyard. As a family my kids are growing fast and they need access to options. This co-op is affordable with lots of fresh options.
