“So convenient and well stocked. Wholesome Farmers Market always has what we need, so we rarely need to venture out to a larger grocery store. Love that they have local products and a decent selection of organic foods.”
“I had a wonderful experience today with Jadriana at the Hannaford in North Brookfield. I had a lot of groceries in my cart, as well as my two-year-old who was getting antsy. There were a few people in front of me in line, which was fine and expected. However, Jadriana, who was working at the self-checkout station, offered to help me scan my groceries in that area. She proceeded to scan and pack all of my groceries for me while I dealt with my child, and was extremely kind and welcoming as she did so- on top of helping others in the checkout as well. I was out of the store in half the time, and it was so incredibly helpful. Any parent knows how frustrating it can be to shop with a toddler who's been skipping naps and who doesn't want to be sitting in a cart for any longer. My son also has some sensory challenges, so grocery shopping can be hard for him- especially on a day like today when he was already in a bit of a funky mood. With Jadriana's help, both he and I struggled far less than we would have waiting in line at the full service lane.
I just wanted to extend my gratitude in a more meaningful way than with a "Thank you" at the store. I hope she can be recognized for her helpfulness, her kindness, and her welcoming attitude! It truly made my day in a way she probably does not even realize, which in my opinion makes it all the more important. We always have a good experience at Hannaford, but today it was above and beyond what we've come to expect.”
“Tiptop is amazing! It is our go-to store for all of our groceries, every week. The spices and other bulk items are wonderful, the interesting and high-quality local and international fair trade gifts are great for anytime of the year, and we buy all of our holiday gifts and cards there!Sarah provides super personalized service, researching products or supplements she doesn’t have and finding them for us to the best of her ability. Everyone in the store is always so friendly, so it feels like a supportive community, with other customers giving helpful suggestions on all sorts of topics.We especially appreciate all of the hard-to-find specialty items, as we are vegan and gluten-free.We are thrilled that when Sarah finally retires, Tiptop will transition into a food co-op and still be available for the local community in Brookfield and beyond!”
“Love the staff and they carry a lot of things for a small convenience store. I'm so happy that they're in business cuz I can walk from my house and they have amazing grinders too.”

“The lady at the counter is incredibly rude on the phone and has a really nasty attitude.Edit: 9/3/22: I stopped here for a drink yesterday and the young man behind the counter was incredibly nice and extremely customer service oriented. I have bumped my review up to 4 stars as I actually did have a good customer service interaction. They are not a bad store overall, it just depends who's working.”
“Absolutely LOVE this store and the employees ! Many make it easy to find items & help with any questions asked ! Johns doing an amazing job as a manager there !”
“We left CVS Sturbridge due to disorganization, incompetence, and bad attitudes. Night and day difference. Absolutely love the staff here. They never drop the ball and always super friendly. That goes for all employees store wide. A wonderful place to shop. Can't say enough about this store.”

“I frequent this store when in Barre. Lots of cold beverages, plenty of snacks, nice variety! They also sell candy, ice cream treats, hot coffee, slushies, lottery, tobacco & more (even greeting cards!)! ? available inside for customer's convenience. Most staff seem to be pretty pleasant & welcoming. They do have handicapped parking & accept EBT benefits. Parking is somewhat limited, with only a few spots right in front. Handicapped accessible, they do have a ramp at the entrance. Prices are reasonable also. Worth a stop.”
“Very happy this place exists, without it me and many others would be in even more hardship than we are now. The staff is always so friendly and just can't thank them all enough”
“Bill is an absolute Angel. He checked for the eggs on sale for me twice just to make sure there weren’t more in the back! Times are tough, so he went the extra mile to pay for them as well. He is so, kind, funny and has an amazing heart. You can’t find that much in people anymore, so I totally had to give him a shoutout because he deserves it and so much more! Thank you Bill, and continue to be amazing and compassionate! :))”
“Incredible experience at your store today. I went in for a few balloons and hadn’t given any advance notice. The two folks working the morning shift there were able to help me out while still providing great service to anyone else who came to their register. I didn’t get their names but it was a lady with curly hair and a blonde woman with some tattoos. I tried to tip them but they didn’t accept any gratuity. You all made a 5 year old’s birthday today! Thank you!”
“Good store & large selection of beverages. Also sells non alcoholic drinks such as Prime, other sports drinks & a variety of soda. Cheap tobacco. Lottery. Friendly staff & owner. Easy parking. Convenient location. Bags of ice available cheapest price around.”
