Belmont Market

Love this place. Fresh food, great variety of products, and I'm very happy with the selection of iced teas (especially the Japanese ones). Always a worthy stop when we're in Rhode Island, and it was a nice easy walking distance from our Airbnb last time. The fact that they take Google Pay is great since I was able to pick up a few things even though I was just out on a walk and didn't take any cards with me.

In response to the owner, he is typically right when it comes to the sale flyer, however, the daily prices of food that are not on sale are typically higher than most surrounding stores.

And you need to be on your toes when comparing Flyers. For instance sea scallops cought out of Point Judith are $19.99 on sale at Belmont. Shaw's has sea scallops on sale for $12.99 and they are caught in Canadian waters, processed in the United States.

All scallop boats out of the Northeast fish anywhere from Labrador to the Outer Banks, so anything out of these waters could be considered local. Both Flyers started May 31st.

I do shop at Belmont, I like to buy my fruit there, however you need to be careful, there is a reason he doesn't want you tasting the grapes. This is the one product I never by there.
And when it comes to prepared foods I must recommend Dunn's Corner Market in Westerly. I was at Belmont just last night and their beef stew, well it just wasn't.

Most of their food is good some of it's only fair, however it is a higher-end store overall. But the prices do reflect the higher-end, much pricier than other stores in its category. Dave's is much more reasonable but much further to travel.

Belmont was many years ago just a fruit and vegetable store. Great selection and quality. They also served local stores. When several super markets folded they expanded. I find the store a little dark for my aging eyes. That is the only complaint I have. Definitely a keeper

Belmont is a smaller upscale grocery store with a deli and bakery. Because I often only need small portions and don't want to do a lot of cooking, I can find great pre-made healthy food. Everything from freshly roasted meats and hot entrees that are ready to eat, to pasta/Italian dishes, to a fresh salad bar and so much more are here. Very nice, fresh produce and seafood. Friendly customer service. Easy in and out for shopping. Belmont is my favorite market.
