I like the market basket in Reading better, but this location is great too. There is very good parking here.

Cheap grocery store good for essentials. Not five stars because In all honesty I don't buy a lot of produce from here. The produce is usually not that great. Their overall selection of healthier organic products is lacking too, but that is not what this grocery store is trying to be. Friendly service and great prices! read more

The Middleton Market Basket is one the original stores and is always busy. it is Much quieter and safer than Danvers. The produce can be very hit or miss most of it not "just picked quality" . The selection here is smaller especially for organic products. Many of the workers have been their for years and know the customers. The Bathroom is a bit scary is it is in the back storage area and has not been touch since the store opened. read more

The baggers don't know what they're doing, the cashiers might just be some of the rudest people I've ever met. They don't bother to smile, ask how you are, tell you to have a good day or anything. The older women who work in the mornings are great, but the young rich teenage girls who work the evening shift are awful. Customer service sucks. read more

I'm so incredibly upset with this location! I recently purchased some spare ribs from here, I was excited because it was a "managers special" so the price wasn't OUTRAGEOUS and I knew it was going to be less than 24 hour before I cooked it and the sell by date was still a day away. I got up the next morning to throw the ribs in the crock pot and to my surprise there were green moldy spots on the meat and the smell was worse than anything you could imagine. So I packed it up in two (YES TWO) ziplock bags and double bagged it in grocery bags and threw it in my trunk, dragged my 10 month old daughter back out to the store (while I'm 6 months pregnant none the less) and took the spoiled meat to the customer service desk. What happened next sealed my fate with never stepping foot back in this store again. The girl behind the counter was very sweet, I told her what happened and she asked if I just wanted to exchange the meat. I said yes, I would go back and try and find something comparable in price. Once I got back there I found another "Managers special" that was on the shelf with the green mold spots and a sell by date on the following day. I immediately handed it over to the meat guy who was stocking the fridge. He seemed extremely annoyed that I was giving him back the meat, but the last thing I wanted was someone buying it without really looking and the same thing happening to them. I found a package that was a little more than $1 more in price, but less meat since the initial price of my package was well more than this new cost (it was the only thing on the shelf that was anywhere near what I paid). Before anyone gets out of hand I will mention YES I am WELL aware I purchased a "Managers special" and I KNEW it was on the end of its life, but I DIDN'T think it wouldn't last me under 24 hours. When I brought the package up to customer service the girl told me I would need to pay the difference in the price of the meat. It's really not about the money it was a $1, but it was the principle of the fact that I had to take time out of my day to drive the 15-20 minutes back to the store, haul my daughter back into the store because they can't even guarantee their meat for 24 hours. AGAIN, yes I am aware it was a "managers special"! Then an older woman comes from behind the girl when I simply asked why I needed to pay the price difference, and began to speak to me like I was a child with a tone my own mother hasn't used with me since I was 2. Explaining that it's not policy to allow even exchanges for spoiled meat and basically treating me like dirt because I had purchased a "Manager's Special". I then calmly explained that it wasn't about the money, it was the principle behind the fact that the meat that was currently stinking up their little enclosure was meat they almost allowed my family to eat. There was no way that meat wasn't already bad prior to me purchasing it. She again talked to me like I wasn't a 28 year old adult, but a 2 year old who knew nothing. I then thanked her for treating me like this, especially when I stood behind them during their strikes because they didn't want to work for anyone but Artie T and put a financial strain on my family because we had to shop elsewhere and pay double the price for the same items at other stores for months. But the fact that Hannafords not only gives you your money back but DOUBLES it when there is an issue with their meats solidifies the choice of paying more for my food, since I know if I brought it back they wouldn't treat me like I'm a child, regardless of the fact that it was a "MANAGER'S SPECIAL". So Thank you Middleton Market Basket, I will never step foot in your establishment again, I will take my money elsewhere and lesson learned, I will never purchase a "Manager's Special" again. The only thing special about it is the sickness you will get from eating the spoiled food, they clearly don't care to check before placing it out for their "Valued Customers". Be on the lookout fellow shoppers! read more

As far as MB's go, this one, at least, isn't the zoo most of the others are, but the problem with this one is, they are very haphazard in their attention to what they sell. I REALLY can't wait till Wegman's comes in and puts all these crappy Supermarkets we have here in MA out of business, because it's a real shame that, in a major Metro area such as Boston, we have to settle for the bottom of the barrel in our choice of grocery stores. Regularly, you will see mis-pricings in this store. The same item priced with different price stickers on them. Expired offers still posted. Just poor. Their produce, like most other markets in the area, appears to be what's left on the bottom of the barrel after the good markets pick theirs. Some serious competition is needed and these poor wretched stores need to be put out of business read more

This place is hell! Not English speaking friendly at all, you feel like you are at an open market in Mexico! Extremely rude people working here and the customers that here are one hell bunch of chongas! Ignorant and don't know anything about personal space!! Shop anywhere but here!! read more

If you plan on going to this bakery and asking for favor/goods/advice or basically anything AVOID Helen. She's an older woman and has never been welcoming and helpful. Standing at the counter today fora couple minutes and she had her backed turned the whole time, not once did she look. I go towards the prepared food section and asked if someone could help me and she had to go to the bakery and ask her to help me. Anyways I needed help with the frozen cakes that they have and she decided to help me but rushed. Tossing cakes onto different shelves holding them upside down to get to them. Once she helped me she didn't even look at me or have her body facing the same way I was speaking to the back of her head. I asked for happy 2nd birthday and maybe if she could draw on some paw prints, or if there were ANY plastic paw print pieces she could throw on. And she was freaking out not even letting me finish my sentence saying no no no that's only for a special order I can't do that. Which I highly doubt considering it takes no skill to do so, and it wasn't even busy. Anyways the writing was trash, not sure why she's even allowed to write on the cakes. This isn't the first time I was unlucky enough to have her write something on my cakes too, just unfortunate that she was the only one there that day. I ended up going home and scraping off her writing and putting on my own. She was really no help. read more

Market Basket - I asked for it to say happy 2nd barkday Rico because he really likes dogs... Needless to say..... Looks like a child wrote it. - Grocery Near Me - Middleton, Massachusetts

Prices are great but when my fiance goes with my daughter to buy a sub he was horrified that someone old enough to be his mother asked him out on a date. He was embarrassed for himself, my daughter and the woman. We've been going to this market basket for 10 years. He said she is always loud but he didn't know she had no class until today. I don't know what kind of people they hire but they better start looking for people with some class.We will still shop there for food but please when someone tells you they are engaged with a child with them , have enough class not to ask them out especially if you are old enough to be his mother!! read more

This MB is closest to my home but I will go to the Danvers one instead. The sandwich counter is much better in Danvers they know how to make things and have all the supplies. Middleton is pretty bad I have told the employee how to make a Greek salad he had no idea. I waited 10 minutes for the employee to go collect cold cuts from the deli to make a ham and cheese sandwich. Employees behind the counter ignore you until you ask for help. Middleton is also out of things quite frequently, seems to be managed poorly. This store definatly needs improvement. read more

It's a grocery store. They have everything you need for food. And with MB, you get more for your dollar. Only Walmart is cheaper, but honestly, who wants to go in any Walmart around here unless you have to. Going to the Danvers Walmart over this Market Basket is a very desperate move. read more

this mb is way less stressful than the salem basket. i feel less like i want to punch people in the mouth and more like i just want to yell, so that's always a treat. i almost feel like there's more of a selection of stuff here, but it may be because the aisles are the width of when people were less fat, so there's probably more room for products here. read more

I have shopped at both the Danvers and Salem MB and was thrilled when we moved to the border of middle ton and discovered the MB. It is MUCH quieter than the other stores. I never feel like someone is going to trample me here! Also, the produce is the best around. Whenever I buy fruit/veggies here they last at least a week longer than stop and shops. read more

I feel very frustrated. Yesterday, August 22, I bought Organic Reduced Gala Apples from the Market Basket - Middleton store no. 45, and I paid $ 0.99 per LB. It is known that organic products have numbers starting with 9. Home I saw that only one apple was organic (his number was 94 129). The other five apples were marked with numbers: 4103; 4174; At this price I could have chosen and bought the usual apples,not apples already withered. In total I paid $ 2.78. There isn't a big sum of money, but this method to deceive the buyer is quite ugly. May be I don't know very well English, but I know what I buy. Sorry, Market Basket! read more

I asked several employees for help finding some Market Basket Seltzer and I could not find anyone who knew anything or cared. When I went to the bakery department the woman there was even more clueless about birthday cakes then the other employees. I will not be shopping there again!!! read more

will not shop anywhere else. good parking. awesome prices. great deals. most workers are friendly but they swear to each other during private conversations--that are not so private since there are customers everywhere. some baggers need to be trained, yes, cans on bottom, bread on top. get it?' read more
