Patel Brothers — Local services in North Attleborough

My visit to Patel Brothers for grocery shopping was unfortunately overshadowed by an unexpected element - the store's choice to play loud Hindu religious music. This music, featuring lyrics with names of Hindu gods, dominated the atmosphere, making it more akin to a religious venue than a grocery store.

As someone who values a secular and neutral shopping environment, I found this choice off-putting. While Patel Brothers offers a diverse range of Indian groceries, the religious music created a discomforting experience for me, a factor that might be true for others who do not share the same religious background or prefer a more inclusive atmosphere.

A grocery store, in my opinion, should cater to a broad spectrum of customers, respecting the diversity of its clientele in a country as multicultural as the U.S. The overpowering religious theme at Patel Brothers detracted from its otherwise excellent selection and service.

In summary, my experience at Patel Brothers was marred by the intrusive religious music, making me reluctant to return or recommend it to others who might be seeking a more inclusive shopping...

The sound of it falling attracted a man who’s starring at me with mean looks. I explained him what happened and told him I picked up the one that fell down to be fair. He told me I should’ve picked up from the ones I could reach despite my attempts to convince him it was a different size. He continued starring at me with that rude looks till I went out of his sight. I had to ask him if at the end of the aisle if everything ok, and he nodded his face left and right with same mean looks. Not sure he meant I’m culprit there or I was fine. I understand I should’ve asked someone to help me grab the stuff I couldn’t reach. But He could’ve been a...

I have never experienced blatant racism in a store before I came here, almost immediately after me and my friends walked in this women that worked there walked over to us as we were picking out mangos and literally stood there watching us didn’t offer any help or anything we weren’t even greeted with a hi, hello or even a smile, but we continued shopping anyways brushing it off but the more time we spent there it was like they wanted it to be known that we were not welcomed they didn’t even hide that we could see them talking about us we asked for help looking for certain products and they were so rude to us, when it came time to checkout the clerk was so rude we thanked her anyway and she just acted like we weren’t there no one deserves that kind of treatment I’m honestly shocked that I would be treated that way from someone who literally is almost the same skin color as me. horrible experience never shopping...
