The Grocers of Brookline

That's a wrap on Brookline! It was a quick visit, no doubt -- I'd love to return and get more pictures of some of the stores, and visit the Maruichi -- but for now, it'll have to do. Navigate the area with the map below!

Coming Up Next

Just west of Brookline and Allston/Brighton are a few other suburbs. Newton is right along the Mass Pike west of Boston (which, in that area, runs alongside the Framingham Worcester MBTA rail line). Chestnut Hill is a small, green residential town next to Brookline and Needham is a bit west of that. I've visited many, but not all, of the supermarkets in this area (my coverage is spotty the farther out from Boston and the train line you get). We're going to start in Chestnut Hill right near the Brookline border, then a stop in Needham and then through the Newton Highlands area. We'll pass through Newton Centre and Waban in the central area of Newton, then to Auburndale to the northwest, and finally end up in Newtonville in the northern-central part of town. There's some interesting stuff here, and this is really the suburbs so we'll see some larger and more traditional supermarkets. Get ready and we're off to Chestnut Hill tomorrow!
