Belmont Market — Local services in Dayton

I started going to Belmont Market because of their Tobacco selection originally. I didn’t save many prices but I usually get American Club Tobacco, a 1LB bag for $10.29 which is a decent price. They have ZED rolling tubes that run between $2.49-$2.99 which is actually high in my opinion. I prefer a different tube they don’t carry but typically run $1.49 at other stores. They carry other non-traditional “grocery” type of things. They carry metal / plastic cigarette cases. A huge amount of insence in every shape, as well as burners. Some household items. They have a small dairy section, And a small-ish size frozen food section that is mostly pizzas, burritos etc. I didn’t see any actual meats. As far as dry foods go, they have a mediocre selection of basics. Soups, breads etc. Prices on the grocery end are pretty high. It’s much bigger than a standard gas station but they use gas station pricing. Examples: 11oz cereal boxes $3.99 (really high) milk is usually $3.00+, bread $1.50-$2.00. Cans of soup are anywhere between $2.00-$3.00. The prices just aren’t good for food. It’s more a place of convenience. If you actually need groceries, go somewhere else if you can.

I also think for the size of the store it has way too many snacks for a “market.” It only has 4-5 double sided shelves/aisles. But one whole aisle is for chips only (1 aisle on both sides.) Thats like 15% of that side and then the other side of the store has 3 more shelf units and all but 1 are candy. In total it makes up over 40% of the store easily.

Hopefully this...

The very first time I ever came to this place, I had such a negative experience that I'll never return. So, the first time I ever pulled up into the parking lot, I proceeded to park as I do at every other convenience store I go to. But as I found out (in the worst of ways), I had parked incorrectly at this location. However, instead of having a polite employee or customer inform me of this, I was screamed at, cursed at & even threatened by a guy (I'm a woman, mind you) who was pulling into the parking lot. I was not in this person's way, & nor had I even seen the guy until I turned to see where the yelling was coming from. I'd like to say that I turned the other cheek, but I'd be lying. It got pretty confrontational but I stood my ground. The employees or store owner(s) did eventually come outside but they attempted to pin the blame on me. I will never return to this store. Not even if it were the only one open and I...

I've lived around here for 10 years. Up till now I think very poorly of Belmont Market. I will be calling in. The owner / older looking gentleman wants to overcharge people/ charge people a different price when he's there. Also be careful of buying any grocery items there too. Milk was not outdated but it was nasty. Also bought a cake and almost bit into it and looked at the other side there...
