Best Industrial Supermarket Cambridge Near Me

Aili Jin: This place is very conveniently located, and the 24-hour opening time can be lifesaver sometimes. They have a good variety of products, and we especially go there to get vegetarian stuff. It's not the cheapest place to get groceries, so it's not our regular store, but we shop there frequently for specific items or when it's on our way somewhere.

Mike Powers: Good selection, little expensive

Nancy Fernandes: it's very expensive. Not a great trip.

Kira Pilat: What a wonderful grocery store! I especially want to thank the very talented artiste Manuela in the Bakery department who created my beautiful birthday cake!

Paula Frye: I enjoy shopping at the STAR MARKET in Porter Sq Cambridge. It's cleaner, prices are lower, and employees are nicer

super sonic soul supreme: Good range of products

Thomas Farrell: Star has ok selection. Prices are higher than other nearby supermarkets.

Erin Kayata: They've done a lot to improve their pickup service and it works like a charm now!

JP Shero: I really do appreciate that they open until midnight, not just 11 pm or even 10 pm like the other Star Markets.And I like the store overall, and most or all employees I've encountered at night in past year or so seem nice.

Wanda Sanchez: It was my pleasure working at your store. Most of all, I enjoyed assisting the customers without prejudice or competition. Being that customers is your business. I respect them and my mission is to assist the customer other than just a paycheck. I have happily worked here in the middle of obstacles, stalkers, and other drastic cases. But I as a business student, having the passion for it got to this job while attempting to work with myself and losses. It always nice to ask about people's issues, causes if they know and solution for a descent conversation. Speculating and carrying on makes it immature and disrupting for those who has needs and wants likewise you. Want to say to every Good customers that it was my pleasure working with you. Where there is a joy that a door shuts on you. Another open and with drug test. Wish every respectful customer the best of all. The ones who hand me pashmina scarves, those who persist on tipping me and did. I happily shared with baggers. And then co-workers who never had a problem that I work there. Made enough fund to start a business if I had no crazy expenses. Always remember. Got to move on. Get ready for my things to do list and new job. My original sentiments

Richard Guinn: I enjoy this store.

R Fox: Great fresh variety of foods

Karen Aldred: Always HSS what I'm looking for. Produced dept. always has fresh food and store is very clean

Doug R: Not cheap but ADA friendly & free parking.

ernani delfino: Perfeito

manik kawsar: Good place to buy groceries, but they are slow in billing.

Barış Bilgi: Nice market

Gloria Ha: Star Market and I have a long history together. One of my greatest regrets from my first year living in Cambridge was that I didn't have the Star Market app. I could have been saving so much money! I could have known when the shrimp sales would happen instead of checking in person every day! But hindsight is 20/20, and I'm happy to be a loyal user of the app today.Yes, Star Market is on the more expensive side for most things. I will usually go elsewhere (Trader Joe's, Costco, Hmart Burlington) for necessities that are overpriced at Star Market. BUT their weekly ads and app-exclusive deals can be amazing, and you can get ridiculously cheap or free things. 25 cent 5lb bag of potatoes or pack of blueberries? Free kimchi with the Saturday Sampler? 67c/lb stone fruits?Whenever something I want is on sale (or free) at Star Market, I stock up. Especially during shrimp sales (it goes down to $4.97/lb, so I wait for that). And there's usually at least one good deal in produce so we're never lacking.So yeah, Star Market is expensive if you're not using the app and buying everything from there. But if you use the app to plan out exactly what great deals you'll take advantage of, it can really enhance your food supply.This location itself is spacious and nice, and I've always had a good experience interacting with employees. I always use self-checkout which works just fine. I would also recommend going earlier in the day for produce (especially if it's on sale), because usually at the end of the day only the beat up stuff is left (I'm looking at you, jalapenos).

John Correia: It's good because it's close to my house

omar bensaid: Awesome management, and awesome customer service staff and, yummy healthy food very well displayed and easy to locate for new customers.

Thitiwat Pitayapornchai: Good

Young Suk Chang: 블루베리상자를 집다가 쏟았는데,아주 친절하게 정리해주셨어요.직원들이 친절하며 적극적입니다.재료들 정리와 뷴리가 잘 되어 있어요

Key'Ondra W.: I love the fresh fruit selection as well as the pocky sticks and hi chews. The meat and seafood selection is amazing as well. They also sell some amazing mussels in the frozen food section. Staff is usually always pretty helpful and they have saki too 😊. Don't forget to visit the bakery up front, yummy pastries and coffee (also nom coffee) drinks as well.

Eoin Kenny: It's a nice place and convenient but hilariously overpriced. Go to Chinatown and you'll get the same stuff for 33% less.

JK: I was from out of town and loved this place. I thought the prices were good and the prepared food was excellent. I bought lunch from the grocery here, a small lobster roll and fresh fruit ($17 pretax). I was satisfied with my meal and the supermarket. I also had sushi from the sushi restaurant. All very good. It just seems like a well designed market with high quality.

Joseph Chow: They sell kitchen supplies, housewares at the expanded section, candy, seafood and more. Restrooms are for customer use only.

Vincent: Such a great selection of snacks, drinks and Soju!

John Holland: Good H-mart - be prompt and on time with the instacart orders though...

Wei San Ooi: Always love their seafood section

Brandon Smith: Great experience

Jiahao Wu: High prices

Jonah Goldberg: Awesome experience

Ethan L: (2023 review)Still h Mart sells expired products in canned food and mix powder products areas.The stocking guys are mostly distracted, and there is no real supervision of them. The manager is absent.(2018 review)15-25% more overpriced than Burlington H-mart. The staff are hardly communicative either in Korean or English, and, I learned that the store hires some illegal temp workers, who didn't have any work visa or a foreign student status either when I asked.Issues;(-) selling expired gift sets without disclosing the short shelf life and one day, $30 box full of Korean fruit chamwoe had green mold at the bottom of box.These boxes were not refrigerated and left on the aisle and a staff was mopping the floor wet the fruit boxes, soaked of the soiled water. I stopped him and looked for a manager to put away fruits.When I called to complain to the store manager, he wouldn't acknowledge their poor handling but he insisted seeing the mold and ask to bring them back. But we couldn't as we were in Cape Cod. He did not care about spoiled fruits.I instead suggested sharing a video call or pics to be sent to him, to prove the purchase, but NO, he said, flatly.(-) According to him, we should drive 3 hours to Central square for their neglect, deceit, and wrong-doings.The manager is arrogant and invisible to let this happen many times.When you see this Caucasian guy, bald, glasses, just be prepared to deal with his poor attitude.Indeed, I have reported these issues over the years to HQ in NJ, of the lack of management or absence of his leadership in the store, deceiving and mistreating the customers for years since its opening, the HQ people were equally imbecile as if there was a big puppet master above them who wouldn't let them improve a thing.(-) Other than the issues above, I also urged that kimchi should not be sold as "vegetarian" when it has fermented fish and shrimp juice.(-) Other tradional snack like "yakgwa" (choripdong brand, imported by Seoul trading, fried flour dough dipped in syrup) is, in fact, not sealed properly and shipped from the poor facility in Jongro area in Seoul (I know this derelict poor area of Jongro) and shipped out in cargo ships for months to arrive in NJ and open to the air in the storage rooms in the room temperature and later in the store shelf for up to 2 years of its expiry date - can you imagine how much preservative it must have to stay fresh whether it was sealed or not? Although I reported it 6 months ago, H-mart is still selling it on-line and off-line stores today.H-mart secretively owns Seoul Trading company that imports 5his3poy packaged products.I urged them to look at the product and to stop taking such poor product until the manufacturer changes the foul practice. And for H-mart stores, I urged the stores to set the high standard of the quality of their product, and never cheating with the dlexpiry dates as I believe each H mart with a local white American manager wouldn't do such thing without order from their HQ.I also complained about overcrowding of the aisles with boxes, blocking the customers, during the peak hours, and the store still doesn't have visibly marked escape route signs or they are invisible for fire situations. These are all cincerns to me.These Koreans in HQ didn't know what to say or do although they aggressively opened H-mart stires in every state now. Because of stores like H-mart and Target express, local stores go out of business. We used to have 10+ Korean grocery stores but they are gone. Too concentric.So, I conclude to the fact that local government planning and enforcement is non-existent.All I ask was to have a good conscience and Stop the foul cheating act with food products and train the manager to look closely and listen to the complaints. And, uphold the community.It turned out to be an unnecessary hassle and a waste of my time. I should probably call the board of health and the fire department of Cambridge with pictures next time when I see such foul conditions.They need to learn a lot.

Nick Goharzadeh: Nice store, great selection of produce and seafood

Tatiana Gardner: Love this place!

Chante: Love the atmosphere and the foods they offer, always find gems I can't find anywhere else. The staff are always so nice

Amina Lamouaden: My last visit with my kids there it was so beautiful they liked the rainbow 🌈 💕

C P: Everything you could want and then some. Best around.

Helen Martinez: Muy limpio y organizado el personal muy amable.

Sofia Briskin: Nice place

A: Priced incredibly high and food and produce is usually stale

Brandon Mercurio: This place has the worst breakfast. Always crusty eggs. Foolish cardboard boxes to eat out of. The French toast sticks are hard as rocks. No bacon at this time. At 9:30am there is hardly anything left and their already putting out the lunch menu. Do yourself a favor and go to dunkin donuts next door.

Martin Schumacher: Guter und sauberer Supermarkt. Viele frische Produkte. Nicht gerade günstig. Angebote an Snacks wie sandwiches u.ä. ganz gut.

Amit S: Rated it 5 some time ago. Reducing the rating because of irrational price increases.

River Yang: A little bit overpriced overall but given the convenient location it's acceptable. Fruits are just bad. Don't buy fruits from here. The ribeyes at the butcher is really good. Probably the only thing I'd pick up every time. Other than that, not that many choices comparing to Trader Joe's.

Xinyi Wu: Price way too high, and they don’t even sell fresh corns😅

Jonathan Carey: Pretty cool little store in a convenient location. It's got everything!

Jennifer Bassett: I love the salads. Pre-prepared food is pretty yummy. Convenient location across from Kendall T stop.

Archana Sondhi: Good location with okayish quality. It's not always fresh and their prices are crazy and just keep going up.

William Machanic: A nice and much needed grocery market in Kendall Square. Go there both for lots of prepped foods as well as standard grocery items. Very convenient for those who work or live in this area.

Amit Schechter: Could be good but prices are way too high (30%-50% higher than Whole Foods on many items).

Anne N: Very nice produce! And some stuff cannot be found elsewhere e.g. non-cafeinated coke.

Brian Twitchell: Good selection of local and organic food. Small selection of some nice plants and flowers. Has self checkout and mobile payment. Clean and bright interior.

Cheryl Dickey: Great service

Shivani T: Small but well stocked grocery store in Kendall Square. Definitely overpriced and closes early though

Ryan C: Great location and useful in an emergency, but everything here is literally twice as expensive as Trader Joe's or Star Market, and it closes at 8pm! Hopefully once CVS opens nearby and there is no reason to shop here they will have to drop their prices.MIT only got Brothers to open here because Kendall Square is a food desert, so it's disappointing to see Brothers price gouging like this.

Yvette Talenda: Great service, delicious food! Nice atmosphere. Ate inside and outside on a numerous occasions. Bought dinners to heat up, delicious every time. A must visit!

oo-: Pricey

Malcolm Mayfield: So... Been in Kendall for about two years... Just discovered this is a real store and not a "small market" or one of those community pantry things an apartment may offer. It's a whole store! With a hot breakfast and lunch bar. Tff!!

Paul Surette: I usually buy their petite sirloin steaks. Really good cut. Their lunch hot bar is dated and expensive. The deserts they buy are pricey but quality is gtreat.

ALEX MESA: Fresh fruit

Thomas Haynes: Always good

Jonathan White: Usually very crowded with long lines. It shouldn’t be hard to add more self-checkout registers… This is simply disrespectful to your customers. If you get anything from the hot bar, it gets plain cold by the time you check out. Moreover, the cashiers are the slowest ones I have seen at a whole foods.

Russell Deyab: Clean covid free, friendly environment very nice employees prices are just right..overall beautiful store.

Chante: Good products and big store

I-Ching Chiu: 物美價廉新鮮

Husang Lee: It's a small whole foods with limited selection. Parking is ample at least

Elias D: Honestly I drive the 10 minutes to this one instead of the Brighton one within waking distance on weekends because I have the privilege of having a car. The reasons being: there is always ample parking, it is never as crowded, there is always more selection of food, they sell wine & beer, and they have a deli worker who really knows how to slice prosciutto well.Prices are typical of whole foods. The store is very clean and the staff always friendly & patient with folks. There are only about 3 self checkout machines here but the wait is never too long.

Kristin OConnor: Always has everything in stock I go for in the employees are especially helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

JGal: Thank u 2 employee named Sayeem! He was so kind 2 me when I goofy spilled meatballs in the self -checkout. Cleaned up & helped me bag my items 2 boot! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Zack Trapper Fey: Best whole foods in Cambridge

Dan M: Unfriendly staff but more so the store management in the grocery department. Only redeeming quality is its never too busy but I don’t understand why this is open with the Somerville and Central Sq stores so close.

Santiago.SE2gCB Brito: Todo es de primer nivel

vandeta ward: Good place to work

Yvan Pearson: The best kale

Treva Fitzgerald: Very fresh food and a very clean store. Everything we purchased was delicious!

Chef John Slattery: Great selection and service

Eoin Kenny: Quite a nice big store with a nice selection and not too pricey. I don't give it five stars because I just I'm not sure what a grocery store would have to do to earn that and I'm still waiting.
