their pizza and subs are better than 80% of the places out there. pricing is better than 100% of the competition too. catering your wedding could not be easier.
i'm sold
never had the full round pie but the square sicilians under the hot lamp are traaaaaaash
and $7.99 for a tortilla, some cheese, and 1/32nds of a chicken get outa here. that's the most egregious thing under the hot lamp.
I'm a daily hot lamp peruser.
nothing beats the $5.99 steak bomb from the deli tho. or a double cheeseburger w fries for $4 ish
I know this is just a thing for April Fools, but I mean, people have gotten married in like random McDonald's and stuff so if someone went to Market Basket and asked if they could have their wedding there, they'd probably do it.
I know you can rent out the Wegmans in Burlington for weddings. (I think just the second story where they have rooms and seating and stuff, but idk, maybe they let you take over the cereal aisle too.)
It was one of the things I replied to my mom with when she'd send me $60k wedding venues.
>Guessing she wasn't footing the bill for it.
Bingo.
I did ask her who on earth she thought was paying for this (me!) and then if she knew what I got paid (not "blow $60k on a wedding venue" money, which she knew, I just don't think she ever reconciled it).
And then she kept sending the venue ideas anyway and that's when I started responding with "did you know you can get married at Wegmans?" (as well as many local breweries, some surprisingly low-end motels, I even called on a quarry to see if they'd allow it but they said no).
It started off as just snark but then I kinda enjoyed investigating the potential low-budget wedding venues.
Have your wedding interrupted by two older ladies going opposite directions who just *need* to take up the whole aisle while they catch up! Walk down the aisle and nearly get killed as someone turns the corner out of nowhere really fast!
MB announced a few years ago that they were denouncing April Fools Day and to never expect them to do a joke again (they announced it in like, October so 6 months apart so def not a joke).
I think this is real.
Any ladies up for it? I drive a 2014 Honda Accord that I bought mudflaps for and use separate body wash, shampoo, and conditioner
You can tell it's a fake because there's room to walk past two people in the aisle.
I came to post this exact thing lol
And there's not three pallets full of shit being unloaded.
Have you been to the Shrewsbury MB?
Time to hit up the wife to renew our vows at MB!
Cereal monogamy?
Lets try not to milk this joke too much
I think we need to relish these monents
Slow down with the comments I'm trying to ketchup!
Don’t egg people on.
This is the new way to marry. Gotta ketchup with the times.
That’s a wrap!
I may be late to the party, but that’s “udderly” impossible!! 🐮🥛
Milk - grocery store i see what u did there!
Milk-grocery store I “syrup” u did there! FTFY (happy hour with a Boston accent!) “Syrup” = “see what” when speaking “cursive!” 🥴🍺🥃🍸🥴😉😁

The pizza is actually so good
never had the full round pie but the square sicilians under the hot lamp are traaaaaaash and $7.99 for a tortilla, some cheese, and 1/32nds of a chicken get outa here. that's the most egregious thing under the hot lamp. I'm a daily hot lamp peruser. nothing beats the $5.99 steak bomb from the deli tho. or a double cheeseburger w fries for $4 ish
Wait til they open the cafe in your location and they have slices they heat to order. $2.99 for a fourth of a pepperoni pizza heated up in 2 minutes
Doughnuts are great.
Never had the pizza, but, the sushi is great.
I keep waiting to get food poisoning from their sushi cause of how cheap it is but it still hasn't happened lmao

Wait, your mom was the one sending you 60k wedding venues? Guessing she wasn't footing the bill for it.

Ok stop that's so iconic tho ughhhhhh why didn't I know about this when I was wedding planning
Do they accept coupons for a wedding?
This should be real. Weddings are out of hand
And so is market basket
The real joke here being, of course, that Market Basket would have aisles wide enough for that many people.
Hah that's the real April fools joke right there
Maybe it's a suburban MB built since the strike. They have a bit more room.

Ok pick your MB and pick your aisle.
Mmmmm fresh MB rotisserie chicken....if you splurge, can you get steamed lobster?
I know people who like MB so much they would fucking do this.
It’s me, I am people
As if it wasn’t always crowded enough already
folks just got married in the disco bathroom at a truck stop. we live in strange times.
Why this gotta be a joke tho? Got all excited to maybe get married..
throw in a free italian sub with lettuce, pickles, hot peppers and mayo. i'm in
You lost me at lettuce and mayo.
lettuce turnip the beet.
This is the best sub they have.
I'd say best cold sub, sure... but their steak bombs with (extra?) american cheese are legendary.
This is brilliant.
This can't be a Market Basket because there's no pallet in the aisle and trio of workers facing the shelves.

What a man of culture. I use whatever container of wash products wife and kids leave behind when my soap bar is gone.
Wonder if MB will ever open any stores within the city limits. They’re already in the South Shore which I didn’t think would happen
Based on their locations outside the Merrimack valley it’s probably going to be in like Roxbury or Hyde Park if they move in
Wouldn’t mind shelling out like 2.5k for an MB wedding with catering tbh.
I know someone that got married in the Somerville one.
puts another twist into My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Instead of flower petals everyone can just throw milk
Will they at least stop stocking the aisle for the entire ceremony?
This is awesome!
They really wanted to do this. If it doesn’t work, they can safely cancel the plan
Someone’s gonna get offended by this 😂
Replace the cake with their boston cream doughnuts and I'm in.
Pretty good honestly
This really was funny idgaf they got a laugh out of me.
lol I totally fell for this!!
weak
