You walk in and they still have hand baskets for your items(big y stopped using these after covid so fuck them). Thankyou for that! However , I dont know why you sell little toys, items and shit at the beginning of the store as it makes you look like you're financially struggling as a store. I'm talking impulsive buying little shit to increase your profits in order to stay afloat. read more

Purchased porterhouse steaks for a mother's Day treat. Grilled until medium rare...looked amazing, yet looks can be deceiving....meat was tough as shoe leather, full of fat and grizze and virtually tasteless. In all honesty, might have been the worst pieces of meat we've ever experienced. I was humiliated serving to my family, but I will say, the dog was thrilled since no one wanted to eat more than a small portion of their dinner. NEVER AGAIN... read more

Probably good when you're in a pinch but not a supermarket I would frequent. Small variety, produce was okay, milk selection decent. Prices were not particularly good. read more

Reasonably priced market, but not gigantic like othet markets. Lots of ethnic foods, reasonably priced meat. The staff is very helpful. Instead of just telling you,"Aisle 8," they take you right to the item you're looking for. read more

I work there for 2 weeks then fire me on my day off via phone call they never gave me a handbook to follow on how I'm supposed to be at big bunny it's just a s*** show don't work for them they have high standards and pay you $15 an hour they want you to work like slaves for $15 an hour read more

A small sized family owned supermarket. It doesn't offer as much as the large chains but there are usually good deals there each week. The staff is always helpful and courteous and there's usually not a problem finding someone for assistance. I find them more convenient then the Big Y , the only other player in town. read more

Big Bunny Market - the entrance to the store - Grocery Near Me - Southbridge, Massachusetts

Best place for meat deals but could do a little better job trimming nerves out ... deli is awesome ... workers are friendly For independent grocery store give it a thumbs up ... Kids love the big bunny sign . read more

Nice, clean and friendly market. It was a pleasure to shop there. They also had items that I couldn't find anywhere else.

We've been shopping at this supermarket for nearly three decades. They have very fair prices. I'm not sure how they do it, but they are usually comparable with the big chains and on many items even better than the others on price point. Being in the food service industry, I can get many foodstuffs at a wholesale rate. I'm often surprised how competitive they are to my sources. Being a family business in a non-metropolitan small community, you're not going to get all the specialty items especially ethnic foods, but that's to be expected. If you're shopping locally, this is one of the best places around. read more

Whenever I'm in the area (and by area I mean probably 30 minutes in my general path) I make an effort to stop at the Bunny Market. I absolutely love this grocery store. It really reminds me of the IGA. They have tons of products and brands that you don't find in the bigger supermarkets. They have a great selection of Polish products at really reasonable prices. Their meat selection is great - I've picked up rabbit and an assortment of livers which are harder to find at most stores. The quality is always good too. I've bought sandwiches and other items from their hot food section and never been disappointed. They even have a great fruit and veggie section - never any issues with freshness and prices are really low on some items. Finally, they have a fantastic alcohol selection. We found a Lithuanian beer that has flavors like coffee and pineapple and is just amazing. I also love that they change up the giant bunny standing atop the store. For awhile he had a mask and now he's decked out for Christmas. Very cute. And the store is never crowded so you have plenty of space to browse and a short check out time. read more

Now will all due respect to Scotty B. and Lynette S., Have either of you shopped here recently? Please. I don't want to sound like a nag or a whiny person but all this place is is an over sized glorified convenience store. I'm sorry but it is. I can remember this place maybe six or seven years ago vaguely being a bit better. The chicken products here are horrible. Just yuck. But I didn't rate it one stars for two reasons. One, they atleast stock the basics. Think of it as ration shop. They got bread, milk, juices, soda, crackers etc. etc. etc. Two, it is good for the people who enjoy it. And if you do, great. I wish I liked it a little more. But the location (About three or four miles to Shaw's and not too many more to Big Y.) Why not just shop there? S.O. read more

I went to Big Bunny on Saturday April 4 and my experience started when I went to the meat counter and asked for a pound of pork . The man working there seemed rather disgusted but said in 20 minutes I said I'd be back . I then moved to one of the aisles and had an elderly man ram into my carriage and tell me I didnt look elderly enough for him I guess it was elderly time at this store but I'm 67 years old . This man was a self appointed Gestapo for big bunny so I leave that situation and go up and down a couple of aisles and head up the third aisle . I was coming to the end of the aisle where two young men were stocking groceries when one of these fine young men turns the cart of groceries he was stocking the shelves with and blocks the aisle just as I was coming up to it and then leaves . I went to the cart started to turn it to let myself thru and the other young man rudely says he was blocking the aisle . He never apologized for his terrible behavior . I left that scene to go back to meat counter only to be told the pork i had waited a half hour wasnt there that there was no pork . I went to cash out and saw the man that told me he'd have my pork in 20 minutes and I said to him I was told there was no pork . He said that's not true then walked away . This had to be the most terrible time I've ever had in any store . This experience deserves a -5 or worse and to sum up this experience in one word brutal read more

I have to agree with Spenser... This place is like an oversized glorified convenience store. I'm used to the big super stores and big name supermarket, Shaws down the street is more to my liking but still tiny. I will say the staff was friendly and very helpful... And they even sold beer and wine there. Sorry not used to that in my super sized supermarket. read more

This is a staple of Southbridge. The town's hometown grocery store. Everybody goes here and if you live in Southbridge you will be sure to see at least 1 person you know when you go here. They have a lot of stuff, and usually good prices. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the produce is usually not that great. Their sister store Micknucks in Sturbridge is even better! read more

This supermarket has the best sales. Really nice staff and good prices generally. Where this place shines is in the produce and meat departments. I'd like to see less unhealthy choices available here, but I will say that about all supermarkets. Spenser, it is not the chicken products but that cooler. (reviewed Jan 2011) Chicken is nasty stuff anywhere you go. It's really tough to make anywhere you store a lot chicken smell clean. Just hold your nose when buying chicken. The chicken is fresh but that cooler may lead one to think otherwise at times. I can't do 4.75 (the -..25 would be for that cooler) So it has to be 5 stars. BIG BUNNY ROCKS!!! read more

I love this locally-owned supermaket. It is community-involved and has good deals. It is small but yet has a lot including cards and stationery, produce, meat, deli, bakery and general groceries. read more

I have been shopping here almost 4 decades. It isn't the biggest grocery store (there is a Big Y in town, and a Shaw's and Stop and Shop in the next town) but I come to Big Bunny first and most often. Why? It's an independent small business. The staff are local, courteous, helpful, and available. I can easily park and get in and out of the store. And most of all, the prices! The meat and produce is by far cheaper than other stores but is also fresh, and with a good selection. They also have a lot of choices for natural meats and organic produce. I love that the marked down meat and produce is readily displayed! I may not be able to find everything available in a larger store, but I can get items ordered for me if I need them. Often an item I am looking for can be found if I ask the staff. I love finding in store specials which come from vendors passing on bargains which the store passes on to the customer. Independent stores can do this as they are not bound by corporate decisions. Big Bunny is wonderful to the community. They provide services to many local organizations and sponsor almost everything you can think of! I love the history and multigenerational aspect of this business. read more

Shopped there about every week for years..Last time I took several of the free throwaway flyers as it was the end of the month when they get replaced and the management thug like owner's son stood in front of my cart and physically accosted me to grab them...I asked him politely to have them as they are about to be replaced with next month's ones..He refused rudely and there is no sign saying that you can only have one of each as he threw the two allowed back into my cart....So rude and unkind to an older person who for years was a good customer ...behavior more suitable for a bouncer in a dive bar...By the way, I have put up with ,due to proximity, with poor quality and sometimes inedible foods from them.... read more

Ive been in this town all my life its a good old family groceey store , been going here forever even when i was lil with my dad , store just needs a lil update but all in all small and has what you need...fresh produce is not as great ....but there fresh french bread is to die for read more

if i had a car i would not shop here, but for now i have no choice.don,t buy the managers special it will be rotten (lesson)learned. most of they employees are very rude and attitudes no manners at all . in all depts from baggers to the management 3/4 need to be fired and replace with friendly people that want to work..you would think the owner would do something about the complaints but no .just care about the money. stay away from the whole watermelon bought two last summer. both were rotten and stink. yes they replace my money. but that not the point. when i go shopping i expect good food that won,t be rotten and try to get me or my family sick. hopefully no one will get sick. read more

they have a few good sales on meat , but I get the better prices on chicken when I drive into Worcester and go to Derrico's , and the meat sales well the prices are comparable to Ed Stearns meat packages . The difference is at Ed Stearns the quality is far better , and they will cut to order . One sale at Big Bunny I went to get steaks , I took four steaks , they had mismarked the price and the manager yelled at me as if it was my fault his staff priced everything that day much lower . Also their produce department is a joke . They wrap items that are charged per the pound , as a consumer if we pay for an item by the pound , we have the right to either slightly more than a pound or less depending upon on our needs . The produce department help at Big Bunny stops anyone from trying to take just what they need on such produce . Also a warning about the produce sold at Big Bunny if buying fresh produce there it should only be produce you intend to use within two days . Last week I purchased a 5 lb bag of potatoes ...when I got home I went to make mashed potatoes for two people . I found 70 % of the bag was rotted . I brought it back the next day with receipt and was told I should have checked the bag before I left the store .....I got no money back , Truly I would not recommend this as a grocery store to anyone . Shaws is up the street less than 4 miles , beyond that in Sturbridge is Stop N Shop .....less than 10 minutes away for great meat is Ed Stearns in Charlton , and of course there is BigY ....not sure why so many are claiming sticker shock when going to other stores ....truly Big Bunny may have a few items on sale for less than the other stores around ....but if one truly researches the sale circulars they will find the prices are just as good elsewhere . Those stating otherwise just never do the research . This week Shaws had butter 2/5 while at Big Bunny butter is 4.29 a pound . Big Bunny had their store brand pasta on sale for 0.69 a pound ( could only purchase 4 ) , while Shaws had prince pasta for 0.69 per pound unlimited . Rice a roni at Big Bunny was 1.19 a box while at Shaws it was 0.79 a box ....Shaws had their brand ice cream on sale half gallon for 1.88 while Big Bunny's brand was 3.89 .....so I see no need to feel or claim to feel sticker shock , just a little research and anyone can see ............... Today I paid 0.69 per pound for chicken leg quarters at Derrico's in Worcester , while they are 0.99 per pound at Big Bunny , I paid 0.99 per pound for chicken breasts at Derrico's , and that was 1.49 per pound at Big Bunny ....and at D'Erricos they will split the leg quarters , and breasts while you wait . If you are using Big Bunny for convience fine , but saying they have the best prices , well that shows a true lack of research ....... read more

I love Big Bunny, meat dept. it's the greatest...and I work for Big Y in Ct., I never buy meat there...way to expensive. We live about 20 minutes from Big Bunny and we sometimes go twice a week. Really worth the trip. Eastford, Ct. read more

The big Bunny is a large butcher shop/produce stand. The meats are good and inexpensive. The grocery is limited but sometimes they have brands that are interesting that you do not normally see. If you are expecting a full grocery like Stop and Shop or Shaw's you might be disappointed. If you want the convenience of one stop shopping for everything you should go to a full grocery store. If you want something interesting, you might want to check it out. Today I got a nice roast beef at $2.99 lb. The same quality roast would be almost double the price at the full grocery. I also got huge fresh green grapes at $1.99 lb., those would also be significantly higher at one of the big stores. read more

This is a great neighborhood grocery store, been a regular customer the last few years. The staff are great people and always helpful. The store isn't big, so don't expect the broad variety of stock you would see at a giant chain supermarket, but they are reliable and consistent about keeping their shelves stocked with the things you need. I honestly can't think of anything negative to say. I will keep on shopping here! read more

I shop here every week. As mentioned before it doesn't have the same variety as the larger supermarkets but if I need something special I'll go to one of them. When I do go (not often) I get 'sticker shock' because the prices at Big Bunny are much lower. The specials on meats are a great value. The produce use to be better but is still good and reasonably priced. The bakery department is nothing special but there is usually a line to get the fresh bread as it come out of the oven. The one thing that does bug me is they put their fresh meat out late on Sundays mornings. Don't go before 10 AM if your shopping for meat on Sundays. read more

I used to live in Southbridge and I stilI drive down once a week to shop at BB. My bills there are one third to one half of what I would pay elsewhere for the same items. I especially recommend BB to those who do not want to have to buy large amounts to get a better price! And for those with big families, I watched a woman buy a weeks worth of family food for one third of the regular price -- big packages of meat, the lasagna fixings, cereal, milk etc -- it would have been over 120 at the chains but she spent 75$. Many of these reviewers who complain about not having one-stop shopping may not cook much at home and may not mind the higher food bills for the convenience? BB is a place for locavores, foodies and regular people who know food because of family traditions or a lifetime of gourmandise. Like anyone who goes to BB I could go on and on about the local apples, the amazing produce manager who can get anything you want and is not bound by big-store wholesale contracts, the cheaper dairy products, the great meats (and the butchers at the counter) and all the dried fruit and nuts but what I really love are the ways in which I can get world-ethnic foods at normal prices. You can always tell a good store by the number of ethnic grandmothers you see checking on the freshness of the avocados (amazing), the melons and the mangos. We have three or four ethnic communities in Southbridge to whom the BB buyers have responded through what must be a great number of suppliers -- Polish, Italian, Caribbean and South Asian in addition to the usual. I get Indian eggplants that smell like apples, and there are always four more kinds. The tomatoes do not come in a plastic package and crates of vined, hothouses and Romas are bought every day. I used to live in NYC and I have so missed the Polish butchers, the Italian delis, the Asian fruit and vegetable stands (which probably now are owned by different people in the intervening 30 years). I knew I was at home the minute I went into BB and BB has elegantly, cheaply and efficiently met my food needs for 20 years. The reviwers' glorified food stand comments are so snotty and so ignorant I find it hard to answer them. Just go and experience BB. There is a Shaws, a big Y, a Stopand Shop and WMart within less than 5 min driving time for the other items; I buy cheap dark chocolate, croissants, French cheeses, stationary, etc. there, but why is it a problem to price-shop at different stores? I still buy my regular groceries at BB and their prices again are lower not by cents but by quarters! You can still get the same breakfast items and all the rest as at the big stores. However these regular groceries also include all sorts of great imported products -- their parmesan, olive oil are cheaper but what about the ajvar (sp? it is this great spicy hungarian spread) pickled Polish red cabbage or beet salads and celeriac matchsticked in a jar? I could never find any of these elsewhere. And I would never ever want BB to try to be like those other plastic chains. Why? It would jack up the prices and ruin the carefully selected stock they have always maintained. read more

I love this store! I live a ways away, and live one block from Hannaford's, but still do a lot of shopping at The Big Bunny. The meat prices are the cheapest, and the meat is better than the other stores have. I like the wide variety of fruits and veggies, and the things that I buy are on sale often. It seems like an old style market, which I like, without excess packaging and bags around everything-"green". read more
