On a weekly basis, this is where I do the bulk of my grocery shopping. For the most part, this…read moreplace is fine. In general, I can find anything I need over here, as long as you stay within the realms of western cooking. So, what that entails I can pork loins for a roast. I can find brisket, I can find chuck, I can find...................really thin cuts of ribeye. Like...really really thin. Like, so thin that I could probably cook it medium rare by waving it above my computer case once or twice. Ok, sorry, I digress. If you want to make a ragu sauce, you can find everything that you need here. An alfredo sauce? Yup, that too. Beef stew? Go for it! It also has all the chicken and spices you'd need to make a fried chicken. It does have an international section, but it's..............not impressive. I mean, sure, there's some items, but you can't make a proper anything, tbh. Miso soup? We got half of what you need! Ramen? Uhhh, we got instant. Also have Ramune and Calpis for the weebs. That said, they do have panko if you want to make a katsu. They do have a pretty good produce section. Like, decent selection of fruits that are in season. Plenty of bell peppers, red, orange, yellow, and green. I can usually get jalapenos and habaneros here, although if you're looking for other types of chili peppers, it can be hit or miss. And the habaneros are sometimes still green. No real produce for Asian cooking here (except for shiitake mushrooms), so you won't find anything like burdock root or daikon...maybe bok choy or kabocha every so often. The spice section is pretty nice. Good, wide selection. Most of them are in pretty small containers, though. So if you need anything other than pre-ground cassia (I refuse to call that stuff cinnamon) in a large quantities, you might be out of luck. But...because the spices are in small containers, it's great for sampling. Most of the time when I come here, I like to grab a spice I haven't used before, haven't used in a long time, or haven't learned how to use properly.

Never in my life have I dealt with people this rude over something so simple…read more I was buying a balloon and asked the worker for the string that comes with it. He told me the balloon comes with string, so I asked if I could have it. He said no because apparently he "doesn't have the authority to cut a small piece of ribbon." So I asked for a manager. The manager comes over all aggro like, "WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" I explained I just needed ribbon for the balloon I was purchasing, and he goes, "You mean RIBBON?" like I had just asked for something completely unheard of. Yes... ribbon. That's literally all I was asking for. I left absolutely shocked and didn't make a fuss because I genuinely felt like the situation could escalate even further. The level of hostility over a tiny piece of ribbon was completely unnecessary. Absolutely bizarre customer service experience.

I absolutely love Belmont and rave about it to people, it's kind of become a destination to me…read morewhenever I'm in the area. Their selection of prepared foods, including vegetarian friendly ones, is massive, and I often get a bunch on "lazy weeks" and they are such a big help with meal planning. Their fresh desserts and breads are amazing, I always get their mini bagels. I shopped the last hour of the day on a weekday most recently to avoid the usual crowds since the aisles can get tight, but almost everything was gone except cinnamon Raisin bagels (for obviously reasons lol). I was sad to see the selection so low, but I guess these are hot items and sell out earlier in the day?? I had no idea but will plan around this next time. They have a lot of interesting dairy free and vegan options in the dairy section that I don't see elsewhere, or that I saw at Belmont years before I saw in other places - they are ahead of the times! Some items here will run you $1-$2 more than they would in another grocery store though, so in the future I think I will stick to specialty items I can only find here, and will drag myself to another grocery store for my basics, because the upcharge here is a little nuts. A frozen bag of broccoli florets was at least twice if not triple the price it would be at another store, and it was a basic brand I'd never even heard of. I do love their natural self care section and what I'll call the "items perfect for gifting" section as soon as you walk through the door - I always have to smell the local lavender. There are a ton of unique sections and offerings here that make the upcharge on other items kindaaaaa worth it (if I don't think about it for too long). All in all I'm a huge fan and will continue to look forward to future trips here! A couple small areas of improvement though: - Something about their prepared foods makes them seem to go bad pretty quickly, like within 3 days - the oils just go rancid on certain things, or they start tasting off. I know prepared items don't have a long shelf life in general, and I don't know what it is about these specifically, but they seem to turn quicker than options from other places - Service is typically pretty helpful when checking out, but on my last visit, the cashier and bagger didn't even greet me and were too busy talking and laughing with each other to even really acknowledge me. I got home and realized the instant coupon on something I bought wasn't even scanned, which was annoying because that was a big reason I bought that item specifically, and it's RIGHT THERE - isn't that cashier 101 to scan the instant coupons??

This is an absolutely fantastic market. The selection of local goods and prepared foods made it a…read moremulti stop for us. Everything was delicious!!!

Placed a large pickup order (for 15 of us) to be retrieved on the day we arrive for a week long…read morefamily vacation in Narragansett. The ordering process is organized well. Four items were out of stock, and the shopper texted us with substitutions which we could approve or not. The website states, "We offer convenient delivery options and pickup in as little as 2 hours when you order either on our app or stopandshop.com. Get groceries on your schedule by letting our professionally trained associates do the heavy lifting. Leave something behind? No problem, you can continue to add items to your cart after checkout up until the day before your delivery or 2 hours before your pickup time." A pickup day/time is selected. Pickup was efficient. The order --many paper bags-- was placed in the SUV at the appointed time by a friendly worker. This Stop and Shop market is super sized which is great for a resort area near beaches and the coast. There are many departments including a bakery and large deli. There is a large produce area. Also, the market is part of a large NE chain, so not only are prices competitive, they are the same at all locations. There is no price gouging. There is a weekly flyer with items in all departments on sale each week. We have a frequent shopper card, so we receive the sale prices. They have a gas price reduction system based on points earned, if interested.

Absolutely awful customer service through the service dept. I was second in line and the gentleman…read morebehind the counter completed ignored me to deal with other customers. When he eventually proceeded to help me, he then told me to download the stop and shop app but I told him I needed the physical flyer for my grandmother. The worker ended up giving me attitude and told me it's near the online orders, insinuating that I should go find it myself. The worker acted as if it was a problem that I was asking for assistance. I DO NOT recommend this store!

Not a lot of stuff on Block Island so Block Island Depot is a great place to know about when your stomach starts to complain. The Depot is on Ocean Ave but ironically Ocean Ave is one of the few roads on the island that you can't really see the ocean from.. That's all right; it's still a very nice view and a pretty cool place to take a break. The store is small but has a deli, some veggies, ice cream and lots of treats, including some great home made cookies. Not a place to stock up for a famine but a cool little store to load up for a day trip. It even has a great front porch to sit on and munch on your food. A great place to meet local folks and learn about the gossip on the island. The folks that work there know the island and can direct you to anyplace you want to go. Sure it's expensive but the everything on the island is. Block Island Depot is just a little place but it is a very cool spot to stop and take a break while biking around this island. A great little respite to relax, smell the salt and just be glad you're on a island.
