Re: A & P's on Cape Cod, Mass.

Speaking of the former "little Chatham" A&P, its status as Chatham Village Market is in jeopardy. See attached from the Cape Cod Times.

Re: A & P's on Cape Cod, Mass.

Thanks for the list! There are a few listed that I hadn't remembered. What do you know of the Hyannis location (now Staples?) I read in today's Cape Cod Times that the GU in Provincetown (formerly A&P) will become a Stop & Shop, like South Yarmouth recently, leaving GU only on Nantucket. The...

Re: A & P's on Cape Cod, Mass.

Here's the pics of the two A&P Chatham locations -- about 1.5 miles apart along Route 28. "Big Chatham" is now the Ocean State Job Lot, while "Little Chatham" is now Chatham Village Market. The abandoned A&P sign sits in the small parking lot of "Little Chatham."...

Re: A & P's on Cape Cod, Mass.

Here's a pic of the former A&P in Wareham, Mass. My "home" A&P, #191 in Mattapoisett, was razed withing the last 12 months. Ugh!

I'll work on the "little Chatham" pic as Max has suggested.

Re: Grand Union

Grand Union Family Market in South Yarmouth, Mass. (Cape Cod, Mass.) just shut its doors in early December -- to be reopened as a Stop-n-Shop. This particular Grand Union first opened as an A&P FutureStore in 1987. GU bought it in 2003, I think.

Great info, Max. There were two A&P's in Chatham -- employees called them 'big Chatham' and 'little Chatham'. I visited each once sometime in the 1980's. Below are pics of the former A&P in Dennisport -- right on the Dennis/ Harwich line just off of Rte. 28 and Upper County Road. Don't know ...

Former A&P Buzzards Bay -- Gateway to Cape Cod, Mass.

Attached are three pics -- two of the former A&P in Buzzards Bay, Mass. and one of the spot where a memorable sign announcing "A&P's on Cape Cod" once stood. The location is interesting; directly on a rotary with the Bourne Bridge in the background. http://i237.photobucket.com/albu...

No Pics -- but Almacs memories

Sorry, no Almacs pictures. But I do remember Almacs locations in New Bedford, Mass. (north end?), Fairhaven, Mass. (on Rte. 6), and North Dartmouth, Mass. (across from the North Dartmouth Mall). Seems like they were gone by the mid-'80's. If you're asking about Almacs, perhaps you remember Fernandes...

A & P's on Cape Cod, Mass.

Great site -- I just discovered it this weekend. In the early 1980's, I was employed at A&P #191 in Mattapoisett, Mass. (near Cape Cod). At the time there were numerous A&P stores on Cape Cod, announced by a memorable sign at the Buzzards Bay rotary ("A&P on Cape Cod" with stor...
