After filling up on Indian cuisine at the nearby Royal India Indian restaurant, I passed Aldi supermarket to see if I needed anything for the evening ahead lounging in the hotel room.
It was nice to find Aldi market on the walk back to the Even Hotel - Manchester airport, where I was staying. I entered here around 6:30pm and took a quick walk around the store. While it is technically a supermarket, it was a basic store with a fresh produce section. You probably could tell that Alda's has seen better days, and I think, was stripped to a basic necessities stop for anyone and everyone in Manchester, NH. Feels more like that when Covid-19 takes ahold of things these days. With that said, I found a few things there that I purchased. It was basically drinks that wasn't soda pop, but active water they had in large qualities that day. Decided to purchase 4 of them, mostly the strawberry one since that was the only desirable product they had on hand. And the price per unit was under $1 too, which made this experience at Aldi supermarket a pleasant one. For the most part though, it was a quick 15 minutes worth of looking around and shopping for me. The store itself was small enough to where you can circle the entire store in less than 5 min if you're walking briskly around the perimeter. The service at check out was friendly and nice. Quite good to have this store where it was, so I can have an enjoyable evening while in Manchester, even for a night's stay.
The overall experience here at Aldi supermarket here in Manchester, NH was typical, short, quick, and brisk. Just needed a few things to make my stay here as enjoyable as possible, but not going overboard with the spending. Supermarkets are great for this kind of thing, where you can get what you need (most of the time) without spending extra money and sometimes effort, if you know what you want and whether the store you're going to carries it. Aldi is not really what you'd expect as far as being a full service supermarket in most places, but it gets the job done. At least the ease of navigating the store is a big plus, versus other larger supermarkets with many countless aisles of products on their shelves. Aldi supermarket keeps its place in tip top shape and keeps things stocked daily. While Alda's is a community supermarket for the city of Manchester, NH, you can find bargains here, like I did. While it's not your traditional supermarket, Alda's has something to offer anyone and everyone who comes thru the area. For meals on the go, to everyday needs, Aldi has the basic stuff you need, even instant ramen on my experience here. Yup, the basics in an ever changing world we live in these days.
Aldi supermarket is located at 1111 S Willow Avenue in beautiful Manchester NH. They accept major credit cards, and cash too. As far as parking goes, there's a large parking lot for you to park in. No stress. Best bet would be to come here early to secure a nice parking spot in front of the store for maximum value. I believe that Manchester has a public transportation system, so best to choose the correct route that you know of that will get you here on S Willow Avenue here in Manchester. The Even Hotel is nearby as is the Manchester Boston regional airport is a 10 min drive. Alda's supermarket is a nice place to shop, if you live in the area, passing by, or a tourist like me, it's got something for everyone at an affordable price. Come on by if you're in the area. It's pretty cool. Their hours are standard these days. Morning till evening. Shopping done easy and quick.
4.0 stars for the overall experience. 5.0 stars for the location and the prices. 3.5 stars for the service. 4.0 stars for the selection and variety.
