Prezzi esagerati e poca scelta
Prezzi decisamente sopra la media rispetto alla concorrenza. Come se non bastasse, molti scaffali erano vuoti e mancavano i beni di prima necessità. Non capisco come si possa gestire un market in questo modo. Sconsigliato.

This supermarket is very poorly run. This evening, I was looking for some Burrata cheese. I walked down the aisle towards the cheese section , and I found a couple of types of Burrata. I picked up the first one in front of me and I looked at the expiry date. It had expired 10 days ago. So I looked around, and I hoped that I could find an employee to let them know that they have some expired cheese on their shelves. No employees around. I walked back to the front of the supermarket. There was nobody at the customer service desk, and there were no people at the cashier registers. No employees at all. I walk down towards the self check out, and there was one black lady scrolling through her social media… So this was the only employee I could find in the entire store. I said, excuse me, She looked up at me, she rolled her eyes and she said what can I do for you?
I told her: I found this block of cheese on the shelves and it has expired 10 days ago. You really shouldn’t be trying to sell it to customers. Her response was: Well, when I see a manager, I will let him know. And she went back to her social media. Again, I must emphasize, This was the only employee that I saw in the entire store and She was more interested in the social media on her phone than she was in dealing with customer issues.

Wish I could give no stars. Went in to get salad Fixings and chicken Not only was the man working at the counter disrespectful to women, when the manager questioned him he told he he was going what I had asked 10 minutes before to do but refused. Then would not answer me when I asked a question and stated that I should ask the manager to answer for him. Walked out and did not buy anything. Went to Shop and stop and the same basket of groceries cost at least $5.00 less.

Dear Star Market Brookline Management,
I have been a loyal customer at this location for over 15 years, as I live in the neighborhood and shop here regularly. Everyone has always been friendly and helpful—except for my experience today.
On November 7, 2025, around 1:52 PM, I was using the self-service checkout and accidentally tapped my credit card before selecting the payment type. The screen then showed that the payment was cancelled, but I never cancelled it myself.
I called for assistance, and a female employee with short hair came to help. Instead of listening to my explanation, she kept saying, “You cancelled the payment” and “The system doesn’t lie.” Her tone was very disrespectful, and I felt as though I was being accused of trying to steal. If I had intended to steal, I could have simply walked out while she was chatting with her colleague and not paying attention—I actually had to raise my hand to get her attention.
I was very embarrassed and disappointed by how I was treated. I have always enjoyed shopping at Star Market, but after this incident, I no longer feel comfortable returning. I truly hope no other customer will have to go through a similar experience.
