Love this place !…read more First they make great sandwiches in their deli (out back thru a narrow hall ). I believe they make their own bread, it's beyond delicious and they had some locally made root beer to wash it down with to boot. They have some of the best rum raisin ice cream you'll ever have, it was melting quickly on a hot summer's day so they put the huge cone in a cup. They have a BBQ out front that is only opened on weekends in July & August, no doubt a future road trip from me.

Soups, salads, and special meals and treats in the fridge or freezer cases. There are also a couple shelves of locally-sourced breads and bites, as well as coffee. This is not a restaurant or source for a takeout lunch. You do need to bring most items home to thaw or bake, so as long as you know that going in, you can stock up on several items for your freezer or for dinner tonight. You can, however, get yourself a few ready-to-chomp cookies that won't make it past the parking lot. .

I love this little joint! This whole central western/northern/centralish mass area is absolutely…read moredevoid of ... most things... but it's a refreshing change to find something between a big box grocery store (non existent around here) or a convenience store that has limited things - but this is the BEST location to buy produce, meat and frozen items in the area - period. It rivals that of farmer's markets which makes the name stand out. I really enjoy taking a ride there and taking my time in each department or aisle I feel that there's always something new each time I go there. It's almost like a boutique grocery store? Nah not like Whole Foods - think more like sodas from France, a loaded deli full of items and brands you are familiar with but some you just don't see at stop n shop or Costco - also have to mention that yes I know there barely anywhere to get a bit to eat so I have to recommend trying the pizza, incredible sandwich menu as well as the best deal in town - the smash burger ! A meal with fries will cost you FAR less than the drive thru crap and about 20,000 times better ! I would say it's the best kept secret but unless I go early on a weekday morning it's typically kind of busy. Absolutely love the mini liquor store - ultra convenient and love love love the selections of ciders and craft beers- it's actually almost staggering and overwhelming but then you realize 89% is local breweries/wineries/distilleries and it makes it better :) my only complaint at all is the high prices on a lot of things that's curely cheaper elsewhere like your Tostitos chips and polar seltzer but if you go with these expectations- you will enjoy your shopping experience here !!

Their eggs are found in various specialty stores as well as some grocery stores, such as Whole Foods, Balducci's, and Safeway. If you check their website, you can plug in your zip code and see which stores carry these awesome eggs! Their site also offers recipes on appetizers, beverages, breads, desserts, breakfast entrees, main entrees, and salads. Great-tasting organic eggs, check them out! :D Their packaging is so cute and in the egg carton, it contains 'Farm News' where it contains some information about the farm. +organic eggs :D

Market Basket has continued that trend with their large 18 inch pizzas where you can get a cheese pizza for $9.99. Of course each topping has an additional cost. They also have hot food ready to serve. This is always worth a look. To avoid the lines call ahead. When you call the store asked for the kitchen. This will save you a lot of time and everything especially pizza will be ready when you arrive. Otherwise expect a 30 or 45 minute wait since it's a well demanded product. They do have a seating area that is comfortable with Wi-Fi. Also, their coffee bar has probably the best donuts anywhere for $.99. You can't go wrong.

10 West Market - formerly the site of the Paxton Police Department, is this small-sized business…read morewith BIG, positive ++++ customer relations !! I've seen managers arrive 'n go, as often is the case in busybusybusy places such as this, but that is getting ahead of the story. 10 West Specialty Market is, first and foremost, a charming spot on your 'to-do list", that local spot that boasts of some of the freshest, tastiest, cleanest businesses in town. Not e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g shall be found here: a 7-11 it is not (nothing against 7-11s personally!) but this is the kind of place where you'll not find like Ho-Hos, Twinkies, Dentyne, packets of Aleve, etc etc etc. To further delineate between "us" and "them", one vital thing you should know about 10 West is ... is that they're believers in the HOMEMADE first. If that should fail to work with bringing you your favorite items, I am sure that things could be arranged for you sure enough! This "Mom "n Pop" identity within 10 West's Marketing Plan reminds me of nearby Vermont, that bastion of anti-Walmart (et al) corporate giants, that State that declares the Sam's Wholesale, etc etc as being persona non grata 365/7/24. (Not sure if Team Sanders has a solid legal basis for this approach ... seeing that Walmart is the largest corporation in the WORLD and no doubt hires Americans aplenty!). Just the same, 10 West has plenty going for it - which is PROOF that not only are bosses truly paying close attention but also, the KEY here is followed up by the central question - the question being, "Paying close attention to what?" Here is where ANY business located in rural areas in any part of rural America is keenly advised to have a winning 'heads up' approach in any business they've launched themselves. Ever watch shows like 'Kitchen Nightmares', etc etc etc. Yes sir-eee, Bob !! Notice how methodically Chef Ramsay ATTACKS problems head on? One solid prospect about this Market is already evident: already established and for the most part thriving ... I would imagine the next level to be attained is - "How do we keep our success continuing without interruption? How to insure it on that same continuous basis?" Exactly, boys & girls. EXACTLY. 1st, one if not thee most important of all aspects of business is how well do clients get treated by Staff the moment they arrive in your front door. I have been coming to Paxton for almost a decade and a half, and full well know that without question - even at their worst of days, 10 West Market makes a kindly greeting a specialty. You'll feel like fam alright, which is - for them at least - par for the course. Take a look around and quickly enough, you'll spot the #1 reason why you and so many faithfuls know exactly what you've come for ....quality. BEEF is PRIME - and ditto-ditto for the Salmon ... the Shrimps ... the Steaks. Chops the size of small BRICKS. Oh yeah, baby! The relatively small size of the display cases, not crammed with items yet also not sparsely 'populated' either as well. Well thought out, certainly. You shall find sausages of numerous kinds - garlic, hot, Chinese, regular - its all there. Bring along grass fed hamburger, the foot-longs, the various specialty salads ... and, of course, the deli meats/cheeses (that I avoid personally) and there we have it, you have the main players per se. Other refrigerators offer select sodas, quinine water/seltzers, milk & 1/2 & 1/2 - got that covered. Chips, etc. Donuts and cookies and pies ......WORD. Remember - if 10 West can either home make it themselves, they will ..if not, they'll order off the back of a truck. Not rocket science, no ... but all the same, its this devotion to helping local artisans say... making donuts instead of going the Krispy Kreme route. This devotion and loyalty makes every bit of difference, and easily explains the steady stream of customers who, without fail, march right in, get their favs and soon enough are on their way? For sure, you'll pay more but then again, remember what I mention next ... Take, for instance, my favorite chain store that sells gasoline just outside - its WAWAs, a store I frequent down South that has an extremely busy client base and often long lines to go with it. But there is also a very, very important aspect of doing business with the public that WaWa's most definitely requires improving too. I speak completely truthfully here. In less than 12 months, I found no FEWER than 6 half gals of milk waaaaaay beyond their current expiration dates. Each time I made mention of it, and each time next was the same exact story. NOTHING improving ='s time to get moving on! BE CAREFUL, people! In the here and now, I say 10 West Specialty Food Market in Paxton, MA is YOUR go-to market as well. Swing along and check things out! What do we have to lose? Precisely! - Doc

Every time I get food from here I get takeout. The restaurant itself is definitely an old style restaurant with no recent updates. Everything I've been told, the service is great if you eat there. However, the woman that runs the desk is not as kind with pick up. When you call for a pick up order, they give you a time to pick up your food which is generally around 90 minutes after you call. I usually try to come as close to that time as possible but a few times I have been five or 10 minutes early. If you are early for your order she gets frustrated and is not very nice about it. I have also noticed every time I've been in there to pick up food there are children there just sitting at the front desk. I am assuming that they are family of whoever owns the restaurant or someone that works there, but it is just strange to see kids just sitting at the front desk when you're there to eat or pick up food. It's not something that would cause me not to go back to the restaurant but I could see it bothering someone else. I've never had a bad experience with the food and my mom absolutely loves it so we go there pretty regularly but I would just suggest if you are picking up your food do not be early.
