16 West St, Morris“I stopped by this delightful little shop while visiting my mom who lives up the road. What a cute place! It has been around for about two years and has cheeses, pastas, tinned fish, foie Gras, pate, cured meats, and more. The owner is a retired flight attendant who hand picks all of the inventory from some of her favorite places she's come across in her travels all over Italy, Greece, France, and more. A truly can't-miss, one-of-a-kind culinary shopping experience in lovely Litchfield, CT.”
“I am still friends with the original people who started New Morning in the early 1970s. John and Jane, the owners for many years now, have done a fabulous job of making New Morning into the beautiful store it is today! Great food, service and reasonable prices for organic, healthy food. Just moved back to town and will be shopping there often! So glad they are still a thriving business! Great job, John and Jane!”
“Great prepared foods at the deli and the hot bar. They have good quality deli meats. The market will take special orders for any item you need to be put aside for pickup. I ordered a fresh tukey for Thanksgiving here and it was delicious.”
“Wonderfully stocked and friendly staff!! Went for the first time today and loved the selection. Bonus was 25% my order in their store wide sale. I was very happy to have pulled off to check out this new to me store and will be returning to shop again”

320 E Elm St, Torrington“A good way to save money on your basics like milk, bread & eggs. Other things that I always save on are condiments, baking items, dairy & produce. With one trip you can easily save 30% over the regular store. There is some stuff I will not buy here- like meats. naa to the pre packaged deli stuff. fruits are a hit or miss.”
“ok if you buy mostly the sale items. Stay away from the prepared food as they just taste horrible. Its not my weekly store because I find their prices higher and nothin spectacular for selection. I think they need to get their prices in line with the other local grocery store close by.”

1280 E Main St, Torrington“Highly underrated for birthday gifts, cards, clothing, books, duraflame boxes, and also food saver bags- all these things which I had to get recently all in one place and all was a pleasant experience!”
“The store was clean. The staff was friendly had just run in, for one of their sale items ended up buying a bunch of other stuff. Cause the prices seemed so competitive.”
“Deliciously Wonderful! The oils, vinegars, salts, spices and now teas offered are yummy. The owner Laura is fabulous! She was friendly, kind and very knowledgeable. Offered great tips for different ways to use oils and vinegars.”
“I go 1 a month to my Former Employer. I go when I do my Laundry at Three J's Laundromat which should be the Place I'm putting a good word in for. But I like to go there bc I don't have to fight for a machine and it's Immaculate. Back to Stop Shop. I just buy what's on Sale and the small loaves of S&S Bread are always so Fresh.”
“Market in the center of town. A hub for the community. Love the Zero Prophet coffee and the Fascia's chocolates - both items are addictive! They used to have a great rice & beans hot offering. Haven't seen that one in awhile. But check on what's cooking for lunch as it changes.”
“Shout out to Emily the cashier this afternoon. She was super kind and quick. Also gave me the kindest compliment after I have not felt like myself the past few months and really made my day! Thank you Emily! Big Y has always been my favorite place to shop for food.”
“The employees were very friendly and have a great sense of humor the store was very neat and clean the grocery store is small like a typical neighborhood grocery store the meat prices are a little high but the quality makes up for it and they do have a variety of meats but a very nice and clean atmosphere and friendly employees as well .”
“Bantam Market is like the Whole Foods of Litchfield, Ct! I absolutely love and appreciate the array of products, giftables and food choices. The deli area has an array of different pre made salads, meals and Asian & Jewish cuisine. They also have a chef come in to exclusively prepare sushi. The but her shop also has a nice array of meats and marinated items you can easily throw on the grille. The family who owns this grocery store has been in business for 50 years and the love and care that goes into selling and assisting is rare. Bantam Market is one of my favorite markets in the area. Coming from city living for over a decade, it is nice to have a market that offers an eclectic array ingredients etc you can use to cook any authentic meal. Largest Gluten Free selection in the area as well! Between baked goods, cakes, pasta and breads ... you can't miss out if you have a gluten allergy. They also have a kombucha bar where you can fill up your own growlers. The beer selection is pretty nice too! Cheers!”

1005 Chase Pkwy, Waterbury“Nice store- stopped in for few food items and found all I needed. Was impressed they have a small fresh produce area, everything looked good. I wish more dollar stores had this!”
“I absolutely love Logue Farm stand, the corn has always been my favorite!! The staff is always friendly and polite. I would highly recommend making the trip or at the very least buy their produce form your local grocer where they are highlighted.”
7AM - 7PM
639 Straits Turnpike, Watertown“I stopped by the BJ's in Torrington, because I needed some honey and cheese. This BJ's surprisingly wasn't that busy on two nights before Christmas. It was well stocked, but it took me some time to find everything I was looking for because the layout of this store is a bit different from the one in West Hartford.There was a very kind lady offering samples of corn and apple sauce, she was working at both stations simultaneously. Each time I passed by her she offered it to me again. I told her, I just had it, she said "that's ok, have another one!" I always thought the people who check for your BJ's membership card as you're walking in was the most ridiculous job, because you can't really do much without your card. On this occasion they didn't ask for my card. I was convinced it was in my purse. After my shopping cart was filled and I went to pay, I discovered I didn't have my card. Lucky it was in my car, so all time wasn't wasted.Their job to check for your card, actually has a purpose, holding you responsible that you know where your card is.BJ's is a Club Warehouse. Their membership is $55 annually. This is where I typically go to fill up my car with gas. Their gas prices are the best.”
“Full 180 from when i shopped here as a teenager. Dollar general is not a one task job, its a multi task job. Definitely prefer this store over Watertown store. They have so much space in here its amazing”
“I love the stuff this store offers.I start off my visit to get their "Awesome"cleaner for a buck and it works better than "name brand" products that cost 5 times more.this is just one example of dozens that I can give”
“My go to location. Good store but they need to hire more staff. Not fond of the manager Jen as I've seen her not pitch in and help when store gets super busy as I've seen other managers chip in.”
7AM - 9PM
92 Main St, Thomaston“I was in town and needed distilled water, they had it. I honestly didn't spend enough time in the store to say much good or bad about it. Staff was friendly and they had distilled water. There is a parking lot and on street parking.”
“Great store, especially the deli. They have a very solid cheese selection including some hard-to-find bries and blues. Everyone is cheerful and helpful and the Boar's Head selection is well stocked. The produce section is clean and well stocked and has a section for less than perfect veggies at great prices. The floral department is at the front if the store and offers great arrangements and plants. I always buy seedlings here in the spring--and have had excellent results.”
6AM - 11PM
970 Torringford St, Torrington“Typical Walmart, some of the products seem to be out. Prices have gone up lately, and the store is very neat and orderly. The Store Manager can usually be seen helping out his team or talking with people, not hiding in his office.”
11AM - 9PM
Torrington“I live one minute from Stop and Shop on the West side but I travel to Big Y to shop. Why? Because the store is very clean, the staff are very helpful and the selection of most of the items I like or use are there. The sandwich deli makes very good grinders and their prices are impossible for anyone else in town to beat. I especially like their tuna grinders. The bakery is awesome....too awesome for me as it turns out because I've developed an addiction to the mudslide cookies and the triple chocolate cake.”
“The store is usually very neat and tidy. All the staff is very helpful and friendly, at least the night staff because that is the only time I usually go. Personally I'm trying to stop shopping at Dollar general and some stores of that nature. But at least I know I can go in there and be treated courteously by the staff.”
