Great Big Y this one is in Trumbull/Stratford, Ct. Its clean & they have a employee wiping down the shopping carts constantly. They carry just about every type of food item their is. Their bakery is awesome; breads, pies, cakes, cookies, donuts & specialty breads & items. Fresh seafood & produce; try their Fish & Chips Dinner, its Great!! They have plenty handicapped parking, along with wheelchair entrance & bathroom. Friendly & respectful employees. I had a Great experience here & I think you will also.

The food selection is good, the produce, the meat, the seafood are all good, and the store is clean and inviting.Who designed the aisle signage though? There is no signage for some basic staples like rice or soup. I know because those are the two things I was looking for. How do you not have signage for basic stuff like that?You want to feel like youre going crazy? Pacing in a supermarket thinking They gotta have soup, right? will do the trick.Great grocery store, .

Recently moved to CT and was looking for a nice grocery store. The Big Y is pretty good. The only complaint I have is that every time I go to their produce section, I am disappointed. Every time I find something that is bruised, cut open, MOLDED. Or their stuff is not ripe and unusable. I have to go somewhere else completely for my produce! Its a shame.

I come here often and every time I walk into the door, it always brightens my day. The food is fresh, then staff are super helpful, and they are never rude or upset. I love it here.

Nice clean store. Today they were advertising corned beef and cabbage. Today is St. Patricks day. That announcement was more than annoying. They didnt have that prepared meal.Then I went looking for muffins from bake shop. Out of raisin bran muffins. I did find an assortment that had 1 raisin bran muffin, corn, coffee cake, and pistachio.Otherwise, good shopping experience and quick, self-checkout which is new.

Michael the store director is awesome. Although there was a 90 minute wait for fish and chips he was making accommodations for folks who were not aware to call and order early.Even if we had to wait, it would have been worth it. Excellent fish.

Nice clean store with good selection. They have pretty good prices on produce, and they dont seem to overcharge on specialty items like gluten free bread, buy their selection of gf food could be a bit broader, although they have items, like gf ravioli, I cant find elsewhere. They have a good variety of condiments, including some Caribbean hot sauces and marinades, but I dont know if this stuff is at every store or just this one to meet regional demand. Meats are a bit pricey compared to other stores. Lots of nice prepared foods at a premium. Easy deli meats presliced and packaged and even some in small packs (half lb or less) which I like, but small variety compared to other stores. They also have a nice floral department and usually have very nice things including special houseplants that always look healthy and Ive bought a few. Overall, Ill make the trip for certain items, but probably get my meats and fish elsewhere.

This store is amazing. Maciel is the best employee and a blessing to the store. One time I dropped my change at the register and he ran over to pick it up for me. He wasn’t even the one ringing me out he’s just appeared out of nowhere so I wouldn’t have to bend down. 10/10 employee and is the reason I won’t go anywhere else.

I was very happy because I hadnt seen our favorite bread, Old Tyme 647 which is low calorie and yet seems like regular bread, but less carbs. I asked the manager in grocery about it. Finally this week we found it again, there was only 4 left. I said to myself, hey they listened.

Review №31

I used to actually respect Big Y a lot until more recent times, now its for middle and upper class people and they treat their employees just as low as stop & shop! After the new CEO and COO took over the store has become too overpriced and the employees no longer get the benefits that made working at Big Y one of the best places to work. Youre better off going to Stop & Shop or Shoprite if you want better prices and better deals.

Clearly they dont have a demand for lunch here. To start Ive found several chilled beverages past their expiration date, the seafood department only has sale items prepared to serve by lunch with everything else still frozen and not on display, the delis pre-made sandwich display only has about 3 options and never many of them, and if you have a sandwich custom made it takes 15+ minutes and its poorly constructed and sloppy. I understand changes due to COVID, but your customers should not have to walk the length of the store to retrieve a cart only to walk all the way back to the only open door (at least the Derby locations has the carts by the door). And where are all of the hand baskets???Im grateful there is at least a Subway across the street

Always a good clean store. Just left with some delicious fried seafood. The sales person behind the counter needs customer service training. When I asked if I could pay for a few things at the register his response wasnt very customer service oriented.When you ask a question and your response is a question....I wouldnt say that was appropriate.Good luck with him!

Best grocery store in ct. clean, big organic and many gluten free/vegan options. I hope they continue to expand on the health food. The best part of this store is they actually have people working the registers. Never long lines because the store is managed properly. The absolute best produce of any store. Great job Big Y. Please keep expanding the health food and organic produce

Big Y is an overall very clean and well stock enviroment with helpful employees. Yes I do recommend them for your shopping. They offer A vast variety of product available to you with specialty pricing on certain items if you happen to take the time and look. If you dont tho you could easily end up over paying. Especially if you dont know you prices. God bless *thanks!

I love Big Y. Clean and very friendly environment . But this morning I went to get a 30 sub. I was standing there for at least 5 minutes, the young lady keep looking up but didnt say a word to me. Someone was behind me also. So I looked over where the pizza guy was, he seen me and came over asked me can I help you. Told him what I wanted, he asked the young lady that ignored me the whole time how long it would take, so at the end she was the one that was working in the sub department. But I just want to tell Gary at the pizza department thank you very much..

We came to get a cake for my mom and during the COVID-19 pandemic, the bakery staff were not wearing gloves. We asked if the member that was helping us (Anthony) could put them on before he touched our cake. He said he just washed his hands and scoffed when he finally decided to put ONE on. We asked if he could wear both to which he took his glove off and walked away. Another employee overheard and said they don’t have to wear gloves despite handling our food which is obviously false. This is absolutely unbelievable! Customer service was horrible and I recommend all stay far from this store.

I visit this store nearly everyday if not every other day. Tonight I came in at 5:59 and my daughter wanted a slice of pizza after her game. We come all the time to eat and shop. The lady behind the counter was cleaning and looked like she was getting her side work done. I asked her if they had any slices. She quickly replied with no. So now I have to be a whole pizza for one slice that my kid wanted. She answered me after I ordered and said 20 minutes, hoping I would say never mind because she was clearly done for the day In her head. I then watched at least 4 other people ask for slices and she turned them away. I will continue to shop here because I absolutely love Big Y but I am definitely a bit upset that they would turn so many people away so early. I understand everybody is tired and wants to go home but I just don’t think that this situation is right. Anywho, thank you Big y for usually the best experience ever ☺️

First let me say that I have been working in retail for 21 years and I understand how to treat a customer. I have been coming to this store since it opened and spend $1500 a month on groceries here for all my grandkids and family. Today I cannot begin to express my frustration with the cashier ANTHONY, I was 1 penny short (YES, 1 PENNY SHORT) and the nerve this cashier had to tell me sorry I cant help you. I ended up pulling out a dollar as the line was quite long and ANTHONY began to huff and puff when he had to ask his co-worker if she had a penny. Im 80 years old and am a frequent shopper here--absolutely disgraceful. I was so mad walking out I peed my pants. Yes, I PEED MY PANTS at how angry I was. I still work in retail full time and I would never ever treat someone like this. Sad this is how this generation views seniors. I will be sure to tell this story to my friends in church.
