I had a very upsetting experience at the Big Y in Monroe, CT on April 8. While using self-checkout,…read morean employee (A) repeatedly paced behind me and stared the entire time without offering any assistance. It felt intimidating and inappropriate. When I asked if there was an issue, she said no, yet continued to watch me. The behavior made me feel as though I was being unfairly suspected of wrongdoing or possibly racially profiled, which is completely unacceptable. I was simply shopping for my child's birthday. Although the manager I spoke with was respectful, the situation itself should never have happened. No customer should be made to feel targeted, judged, or uncomfortable while shopping. This needs to be taken seriously and addressed to ensure it does not happen to anyone else.

The staff are all fine and friendly but the problem I had with the food quality is unacceptable…read more Literally the first and only time I've gotten food prepared by Big Y and I find plastic in the German potato salad. Before finding the plastic I found it to be good. Very standard flavor (in a good way). But Big Y needs to be more careful. The plastic was clear so the piece we found could've easily been swallowed. It also makes me question the rest of their food prep. If plastic is entering the food, what else is sneaking in?

I have tried going to this ALDI on numerous occasions, including weekdays and weekends and each…read moretime I am left disappointed. They seem to be constantly out of things, poor selection of produce, minimal organic meats, and overall not well stocked in comparison to other Aldi's in the local area. It is such a bummer considering this is the closest to my house and the most convenient to come to. It also has a very big parking lot, which is also a nice feature of this location. On my most recent visit on a Wednesday in the early afternoon, I left not buying anything when I could see they were out of multiple items I had hoped to purchase. Bread minimally stocked, produce area a mess, no organic meats, and no pickles?!!! Hopefully this Aldi location will get better, but I am not sure if I'm willing to waste my time trying it again. I think I will drive to the further location....

I am so glad, now we have Aldi in Monroe, CT. I was thoroughly impressed by my experience. The…read morestore is well-organized, making it easy to find everything. The prices are unbeatable, offering great value for quality products. The produce section was fresh and well-stocked, and I appreciated the variety of organic options available. The staff was friendly and efficient, ensuring a smooth checkout process. Overall, Aldi in Monroe is a fantastic place to shop for affordable and high-quality groceries. l'l definitely be returning! It's super clean and has ample parking available.

This is where we would go. It is beautiful inside - it's fresh - it's inviting, a great family atmosphere, and a curated grocery with some home good items. They are also curated really well, loved shopping here. I loved eating here even more!!! the chicken sandwich is better than it looks!!! definitely highly recommend and look forward to seeing the friendly and warm couple that run this place again.

Second time is a charm and so that's why I decided to write this review. Before I go on about a…read morecouple of negative experiences with the front service desk woman, I will say that Adams is a pretty good market and convenient that gives you a homey feel and not that big wide chaotic supermarket feel. The customer service woman has no customer service skills whatsoever. She is rude and cold and looks at you like you are a piece of dirt when you make a mistake at the self checkout isle when she tried to help me today she was condescending and said "I told you blah blah blah". I will not stand for that behavior. I will not put up with anyone being rude to me for no reason, because common courtesy and warmth to me is something that I practice every day. And when you are in the service industry you should know to practice that every day. Shame on the people that have this woman still working there and not taking her to the side and explaining how to practice good customer service. Part of my going into a business is the whole experience. And this experience is not a good one.

Honestly, I can get much of what I enjoy eating here instead of going to Whole Foods and being tracked by Amazon Prime. Then over in the ice cream area, they had an awesome selection of non dairy products including some brands I had not yet seen before plus the avocado ice cream, which isn't too easy to find. The bakery had a nice little gluten free area and I found the yummy Goodman's vanilla ice box cake plus many tasty Luigi's cannoli treats and pies. Back in the front section of the store, there were nice pastas, pierogies, cold brew coffee found on Shark Tank and juices. I prefer this store to Shop n Stop across the street because Shop n Stop was too slow to get on the health band wagon and left me high and dry for years - yes I hold a grudge - and also it's too big and annoying and parking lot there is too chaotic. Shop Rite is a much more pleasant and low key shopping adventure with very friendly and helpful young employees. Thank you for carrying good products and being so friendly and pleasant.

I tried the hot food buffet and what I liked about it was that the food wasn't salty. The chicken…read morewas nice, but a bit dry. The mac & cheese was creamy, but it tasted a bit scorched. The scorched taste wasn't favorable, but the creaminess and texture more than made up for it. And you can never go wrong with a side of carrots. Overall, the food wasn't bad, but way too pricey. $16.00 is a bit much. That's a review.

Huge difference in price as this Stop & Shop is way more expensive. As an example, popsicles at Bridgeport are $6.99 for 18 and at Trumbull $7.29. It feels like the Bridgeport store has more variety in most categories. The deli has a nice selection of board head meats and cheeses. From our experience this store is easier to shop with less customers but it could be the times we were there idk. I didn't take any outside pics as it was dark. The parking at this store is easier with a decent amount of handicapped spaces.

I was pleasantly surprised with the wide variety of flowers in the florist area in this particular store. The display was elegant, colorful, and showed a lot of effort on the part of someone who really has a passion for flowers. I looked around to compliment whoever was working there, but I did not see anyone. The rest of the store was moderately stocked, and again, very few staff were present and available. It was a little surprising that this particular store was not as clean as some of the others, as that seemed to be one of this chain's stronger attributes. I would definitely go to this store for floral arrangements in the future!

Massive savings c) cleanliness is an issue. Went to buy chicken 1/6/26. Picked up a package and it had water and debris all over it. Case was filthy. I put it back and went to Carluzzi's d) fresh fruit in many instances is frozen, then defrosts and goes bad on the shelves.

Before the pandemic I ran a fundraiser for wounded soldiers and I was allowed to place my Beautiful Baby Photos fundraiser for wounded soldiers in this supermarket. Both Big Y and Caraluzzi's both wouldn't allow it even though 100% of the money collected went towards a handicap house for young military returning with life-altering injuries. Stop & Shop is a team player and the only supermarket in Newtown we shop at because they support our town and nation. Big Y no longer even has a bulletin board for residents!
