    a piece of meat in a bag
    Joe B.

    Highly underrated for birthday gifts, cards, clothing, books, duraflame boxes, and also food saver bags- all these things which I had to get recently all in one place and all was a pleasant experience!

    Great option for gas.

    Very clean and well stocked BJs, as several other Yelpers have pointed out it is on the small side. They have less variety and small departments but overall still a good selection. During the holiday season they extent their shopping hours making them easily accessible. Their gas station is located in the front of the parking lot and typically has some good deals when certain items are purchased from the store.

    $100 for crappy Connecticut fireworks??

    We go here about once a month, usually on the weekends. This is a great place to buy a big ticket item, the flat screen TV we bought last year was a great value. Mostly we shop here for the food items, things like K Cups and coffee creamers and frozen foods etc. Vitamins are a pretty good buy here too. Is every single item on the shelves a bargain? Absolutely not. Some of the pricing is high, some is average, but even the average pricing becomes less desirable because they make you buy double or even triple packs of things, and that's not the best way for some people to shop. The selection is pretty good, as far as the groceries go. They have certain items we see here that we just don't see anywhere else - like the frozen Harvestline Chicken Florentine patties. They are delish and its always nice to pop open our freezer for a quick dinner choice. During the holidays it can get pretty crazy here, but on this hot June evening, the place was empty. We feel that the annual membership fee is covered by the savings we generate by shopping here.

    I come for the gas, pop in for the occasional baking supply and reasonably priced DVD. It gets a bit chaotic on weekends, and parking can be a bit of a challenge (I suspect due to the angles of the parking spaces), but seem like largely reasonable prices. You really have to price compare with what you need and what they offer, because it doesn't have the selection a grocery store does. But if you can get a deal on membership, the gas savings a God send!

    Torrington's BJ's is a bit slim. It's got a pretty decent selection of your everyday necessities, but is definitely lacking in their fresh food selection. Produce is generally well-stocked, but can be hit or miss. Their butcher area looks like some guy popped his trunk and presented you with his latest vacuum-packed adventures in venison. They also have a very poor selection of organics and/or natural foods, which are generally available in larger wholesale clubs. All in all though, we do a lot of shopping here, and it's definitely worth the membership dues. There's a lot they could improve, but I'm not sure they have any sort of incentive to. Their attentiveness to the check out area is the one issue that BJ's is pretty bad about. It can feel like the Lincoln Tunnel at rush hour waiting in line sometimes... but oh, right. There's only ONE register open, and a few employees standing around the service counter, watching but doing nothing. It's probably not like that most of the time, but every time I'm there when it's busy, it seems to be a testament to some poor front-end management.

    This may be a record. Had to snapshot it.

    We drop by Moscarillo's several times each year, sometimes finding what we want at the right price,…read moresometimes not so much. This year not so much. A couple of things about this garden shop. First, it's much larger than you might think from the road. There are lots and lots of flowers, veggies and other garden items; no quarreling over the choices to be found here. And for the most part the staff has proven helpful. Mostly. Our main issue is over the prices -- this is not a shop for anyone operating on a budget. And in the spring of 2024, it's pretty expensive here to buy potting plants, perennials, hanging baskets, fertilizer, potting soil, vegetables and the like. You may legitimately argue over whether the likes of Home Depot and Lowes can match the quality here, but they certainly do better when it comes to pricing. Check it out -- you may disagree. But at least you have been cautioned.

What a pleasant surprise! This place is a lot bigger than it looks. We found the very hard to find Donkey Tail or Burrito succulents! We bought 2 of those, a String of Teardrop, and a tiny String of Pearls. I also found the most beautiful rain gauge there. They had a really nice selection of all landscaping plants and flowers, even a nice sized selection of houseplants. Everything in this store is well taken care of and healthy. Lastly, the prices were very reasonable. I can highly recommend this place.

    I was in quite a bind today. We are in the area for a few days, and while packing, I foolishly…read moreforgot my contact lenses at home. Home is a 2.5 hour drive away. My glasses aren't wonderful, so I definitely needed some help. I called MyEyeDr at 8:00am today and Erin helped me. Thankfully, they had my rx in stock. She was incredibly kind and understanding. My contacts were ready within half an hour. 5/5. If you are in the area and need a great eye doctor, look no further.

    I had an appointment here a few days ago, and this was my first time visiting the Torrington…read morelocation after always going to the New Milford office. This review is really two parts because one aspect of my visit was outstanding, while the other was extremely disappointing. I don't think employees who do an excellent job should receive a poor review because of decisions completely outside of their control. The real reason I'm writing this review, and the true highlight of my visit, was the technician who helped me, Sophia. Sophia was incredibly kind, professional, attentive, patient, and genuinely caring throughout my appointment. She turned what started as an experience that had me frustrated and ready to walk out into one of the best customer service experiences I've had in a very long time. If it hadn't been for her, I honestly don't believe I would have stayed to finish my appointment. I'm not someone who writes reviews. In fact, this is the first review I've ever written. That's how impressed I was with Sophia. Her communication skills, attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to keep me informed every step of the way were exceptional. What impressed me most wasn't just her technical ability, it was her emotional intelligence. She could tell I was frustrated before I had to say much, yet she remained calm, patient, respectful, and reassuring the entire time. She listened to my concerns, answered every question I had, and treated me with genuine empathy. She completely changed the direction of my visit simply by making me feel heard. Sophia never made me feel like I was being helped by "just a technician." She was confident, knowledgeable, and explained every step of the process so well that I felt completely comfortable in her care. If nobody had told me she wasn't the doctor, I never would have questioned it. My frustration wasn't with Sophia, it was with MyEyeDoctor's decision to schedule me with a virtual doctor. Personally, I believe an eye exam is one of the last medical appointments that should be done virtually. Vision care should involve an in-person doctor. After Sophia completed nearly the entire exam, we waited about 20 minutes for the virtual doctor, whose portion of the appointment lasted only about two minutes. She spoke briefly, didn't ask if I had any questions, and disconnected almost immediately. The interaction felt rushed and impersonal, and it simply wasn't the level of care I've come to expect after nearly 15 years as a patient. I can confidently say I will never choose another virtual eye appointment. That being said, employees like Sophia are the reason customers remain loyal. She represented MyEyeDoctor with professionalism, integrity, compassion, and genuine care. She didn't just provide outstanding customer service, she retained a customer. I walked in prepared to leave frustrated and seriously consider finding another provider. I walked out because of Sophia. I sincerely hope someone in management reads this because employees like Sophia deserve to be recognized. Outstanding employees often don't receive the credit they deserve, and I wanted to make sure hers didn't go unnoticed. I've been a MyEyeDoctor patient for nearly 15 years. If it weren't for Sophia, this appointment likely would have been the one that caused me to leave. She was the reason I stayed. Thank you, Sophia. You turned what could have been a terrible experience into one that reminded me why exceptional employees make all the difference. The virtual doctor may have signed my prescription, but Sophia was the one who provided my care. If MyEyeDoctor wants to know what outstanding patient care looks like, they already have the perfect example working in their Torrington office. Her name is Sophia.

I get my prescription from BJs and go and order a year supply of contacts and expensive designer glasses. Immediately when I get my glasses I notice My vision is so blurry, i get headaches I've never gotten before, I can't see to drive and I keep tripping. Long story short, I went to an a reputable eye doctor bc I was so worried that something was wrong with my eyes. He did an exam and compared my prescription with BJs and it is completely off, the astigmatism correction is incorrect, the lens strength and curvature was completely off, not even close. Now I had to order new lenses for my glasses and a year supply of totally new contacts. It ended up costing me twice the cost . I'm so disappointed I trusted BJs optical and now I'm out OVER a grand between these eye doctor visits, contact fittings, glasses , contacts etc. I just feel others should know this too, and I think it should be looked into.

    Shelia is my go to gal! I am a current and former BJ's member so was nice to get it all done in one…read morespot (shopping and eye exam). I do not believe you need a membership to use there services for Optical. Eye exam was thorough and efficient. Overall took standard time 30min to an hour . Doctor and technician are on zoom call and able to operate machinery effortlessly and effectively. Speakers and microphones are fully capable to utilize and facilitate seamless communication on zoom. Would recommend. At my appointment was 74.99 just for eye exam single vision (it was the same last year as well). They call you to confirm and for pricing before you go. Exam is made online and very easy to do. You do obtain paper prescription and ability to have them emailed for convenience. Any other specific needs needing specialist care would be a referral for your own choice of care provided..

The Torrington location is great. Stands out amid sadder versions of Stop and Shops and Big Y stores in the area. Service is terrific. Selection ample. Feels like I'm "getting something" for my investment. Just a cautionary tale: For all of the new shelving, floor tiles, paint, and displays, there comes a price. And just because it's merchandised expertly - it doesn't mean it's worth the value it's priced at. IE: Hellman's mayo, is Hellman's mayo at any store. I love the store. I love that they have an array of Central NY brands (Hoffman's, State Fair/Speedie, etc). But I always make two lists: what are the wants from Market 32 and what are center-store grocery needs that can be purchased for 20% less elsewhere.

Overall, a solid grocery store that makes weekly shopping pretty convenient.
