Hands down the worst grocery store I've ever been to. They sell meat that is expired and has spoiled on a regular basis. Don't go here unless you like paying for overpriced food that you can't even eat without contracting a disease. Just do better management. The employees, I will say, are very nice people.

Wilted produce with an unfriendly under staffed environment. Place smells like old bread and cigarettes. Prices are more expensive than seaport

It's never a pleasant experience going here or any Stop and Shop for that matter. The employees are often very unhelpful (probably to no fault of their own as they're likely not being paid or trained adequately by corporate). So many times I've gone in here and seen something on sale, used my membership card at checkout and it doesn't ring up. Then they have to get a manager (which adds to the already lengthy lines) to go check. This time I saw and read the sale sign 3 times to make sure and I almost took a picture of it figuring I'd need it at check out, but didn't feel like digging my phone out. Sure enough the manager came back saying it wasn't on sale, I went back after checking out because I know what I saw, and mysteriously the sign holder was now empty. She either removed it when she went to check or it just so happens an employee removed the sign minutes after I picked out the product. Regardless of price this is a very frustrating shopping experience, I'll be driving 20min out of my way in the future to avoid shopping here!

The worst Stop N Shop, nay, the worst grocery store in the state of MA, maybe even New England. Never stocked, when they are stocked the produce has already gone bad. Went over there to get iceberg lettuce the other day and found bugs in the packaging (pictured). Never ever worth going there. The employees are pretty friendly which is worth a star otherwise I would give this place 0 stars if I could.

This is one of the worst grocery stores I've ever been to. Went today and a ton of produce was out of stock. Onions were sitting in the bin covered in mold. The meat area smelled rancid. Time to find a new grocery store.

Was excited to move into an area where it's only a 2 minute walk to the grocery store however I'm now driving 10 minutes over to TJ's - this is legit the worst supermarket I've ever been to. It's messy, dark, the service is piss poor and all employees are constantly in a bad mood (except the deli), etc. Produce is overpriced and bad quality. For example the peppers are tiny and the opposite of vibrant and fresh. There's always things scattered on the ground in the aisles, the lines to check out are always backed up, there's hardly ever any hand carts available because no one moves them from the checkout back to the front of the store. It seems as if Stop & Shop has just forgotten about this location. Go over to Trader Joe's and see the difference. I will absolutely drive the 10 minutes to be treated well and have a good selection of quality items. .69c for bananas while the same, better quality organic bananas are .25c at Trader Joe's.

Yeah this is sad, they never have good produce or veggies or not enough. Very small compare to other stop and shops around Massachusetts(Boston area). There's never any sales, maybe they think Everyone in Southie is bougie and rich but a lot of things are over priced. I rather drive to Trader Joe's in the seaport or in Cambridge, shoot even market basket in Chelsea has a better selection. Long story short, if you're desperate yeah go for it but if have a choice go somewhere else.

This is close to being the worst super market I have ever been in. This is considering markets I've been to in 3rd world countries. Only difference with the 3rd world countries; the service is better. Now since I li I've within walking distance, I will go. I regret each time and would prefer taking a 20 to 30 minute ride to the Market Basket!

This is the worst grocery store I have ever witnessed!!!! Filthy and depressing inside the worst staff I have ever seen in one place rude is a understatement!!! They talk we'll scream to one another and their conversations are usually not appropriate!!! A disgrace!!! Would never buy anything not packaged!!! Checking out totally not engaging!!!!! Ridiculous!!!!

Since my review years ago the place has improved quite a bit. Staff is generally more engaging and the shelves are well stocked. Meat section is not the best though; we usually purchase meat and fish at K&8 nearby.

Got this yesterday and went to open it today and it was moldy. Very upset about this since everything is very overpriced at this store already.

Very poor selection of fruit and vegetables. Often close to decay. Bins are usually close to empty. Store needs complete update.

They have the worst selection. Produce, meat, chicken, and fish are all very sparse.

This is the worst supermarket I have ever been to. I live one block away and would rather drive 20 miles and pay double. The store is always filthy and the shelves are always empty. I continuously talk to people who now go to Whole Foods because of the quality and cleanliness. There is never enough employees at registers. There is usually a 15-25 minute wait in line for under 12 items. Stay away if you want clean and fresh.

This is the worst grocery store I've ever been to. And living in the area I had to go here for two years (no car)! It is very small, never very clean, the employees are poorly trained and the produce is TERRIBLE. There are no fresh fruits or vegetables to be found. The lines are always VERY long no matter which night you're there and they don't like to open up extra ones. Some of the employees are nice and genuinely care about your experience like Ray, but they are few and far between. Most are just punching a clock (which is fine but can't you do it with some efficiency and a smile?). Overall it is very busy because it is the only option on the East side of Southie. Someday there will be a Whole Foods or something over there that will run it out of business. Only go here if you have to.
