Stew Leonard's is called the 'Disneyland of dairy stores' - and after one visit, I totally get the hype
Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
And while everyone has their favorite supermarket, a few stand above the rest - and I'd heard Stew Leonard's was one of those.
The grocery store has locations in Connecticut and New York, but having grown up in New Hampshire - land of Market Basket - I had never set foot in one.
But with all the hype from Connecticuters, I was pretty curious. The supermarket's reputation for customer service and quality precedes it, and I had heard rumors of animatronic singing produce. I had to check it out.
With the moniker "the Disneyland of Dairy Stores" - given by the New York Times back in 1983 - I knew I was in for an experience. But I had no idea just how delightful it is to grocery-shop at a Stew Leonard's store.
