LaBonne's Epicure Market, 639 Straits Turnpike, Watertown“My only experience here has been a good one. I called earlier in the morning to order some breakfast sandwiches for a meeting. When I got there they had them ready. Even better, they had them labeled so there would be no confusion. The pricing was good compared to all the fast food chains in the area. Why wouldn't you get a fresh breakfast sandwich for the same price as fast food? The staff in the deli end at the register were both friendly and helpful. I got bacon egg and cheese with avocado on a roll. It was warm enough so the cheese melted and every bite was blended with the egg cheese and avocado. The bacon was extra crispy just the way I like it. They also have a full service supermarket. They are a family owned business that has been around for a very long time. I want to say over 100 years, but I can't remember exactly. I was reading something in the store that gave the whole history and how they evolved into the supermarket they became. Stop in and find out for yourself.”

43 Meriden Rd Unit 1, Waterbury“We have been very happy with this Walgreens. In the seven years we have been turning to them for prescriptions, vaccinations, and the usual range of drugstore items, the staff have been uniformly friendly and helpful in finding things. (Definitely can't say that about the CVS off Connolly Parkway, though when we moved to Hamden, we came as CVS regulars from our previous home elsewhere.) Yes, the store is older and could use a little sprucing up. But it's clean, well-stocked, and very well-run. (If they run out of an advertised item, they have been quick to offer a rain check.) The pharmacists have gone out of their way to be helpful on several occasions, and the pharmacy and front end wait has generally been been shorter than at CVS). The store may be a little homely, but it's a neighborhood asset no less than Spring Glen Hardware. Remove review”

“Great store! Super friendly staff in all departments. Their veggies are fresh, baked goods, especially their Carrot Cake, is terrific. And with the Big Y card, there are some discounts to be had.”
