I have been shopping here for over 12 years. It’s a true Northeast gem. The cakes are always good. Never dry or hard. The meats and seafood products always fresh. Vegetables are reasonably priced for the quality with is awesome. This Market carries a unique variety of foreign and domestic products.

Before today I would have given 5 stars because they have such a wonderful bakery in addition to various packaged items sold nowhere else. I went there today specifically to get what I have thought of as dinner rolls--I cant remember what name was on the packages. But no rolls, and no empty bins where they might have been but sold out. Then i saw one of the bake staff putting out fresh products, so I asked her where are the rounded crisp rolls? She knew exactly what I meant, and she said they STOPPED MAKING THEM!!! I was crushed. Those were excellent rolls, and the bin that held them always was well sold if I foolishly went there too late in the day. Theres nothing like those rolls anywhere Ive ever looked, so it seems they are gone from my table. Terrible!!!!!

Some of the produce looked good, some not so much. Its great if you are looking for middle east or eastern european ethnic specialty foods. There is no shortage there. Some of the deli meats are well priced and the bakery section smells great. If you have the choice of shoprite, acme, or giant then Id recommend any one of those first.

I used to shop at this place more often but than moved and Bells is too far from my home now. Last weekend I decided to visit my old shopping place - Bell’s. The quality of service and products went down drastically. I purchase two herring from the fish stand and when I got home turned out that I wasn’t only charged for herring but for 12oz of fish brine in the plastic bag with herring. I also bought smoked white fish. It was horrible, super salty, extremely dry and it develops a white residue on the top in two days we ch means the product was too old but has to be thrown out but they cleaned and sell it I threw the fish out. I am not going back to Bells ever again.

I got my prescription medication from there and it was ready when it should have been. I got a new phone number so they couldnt call me about it but, when I went there for them, they were still waiting for me there, which I was pleasantly surprised about. The only thing that I was not crazy about is that they are closed on Sundays, which I didnt know about. I just shrugged my shoulders and went back there when I could.

I always go to Netcost market on Bustleton, but today I decided to visit Bells market, where I was abused by their stuff.I asked: Is there a cutaway sausage to see? The seller silently took the sausage, it took a very long time for her to come back.She looked very unhappy to do the job and also she looked like she didn’t sleep all night and could barely move along the work station.However, it was not a problem for me. But what happened next, it shocked me. She returned with a cut sausage, which I did not like and I asked her to give me another one. Instead, I received an angry look and the phrase: “And this one, why wont you take it, why did I cut it?” First: I did not force her to cut it, but only asked if there is one in the cut? Is it forbidden to ask to show a cutaway meat product and then not to buy it? I asked her to invite the manager to clarify the situation and then everyone began to insult me in every way, turning everything so that the problem is not that I do not buy the cut sausage, but it turns out that I do not ask her normally.What??????My 8 year old daughter, who was shocked by what was happening, offered to call the police.I will never come to this horrible place again.Netcost’s service is king size, comparing with Bell’s.All workers are very friendly and always ready to help with the choices .

I love this place for its productsIt has products from Balkania Greece and Turkey that you can not find anywhere elseIt just needs some improvement with Customer ServiceThere are some extremely rude ladies working behind the smoked fishes and delicatessen that I couldn’t stand, in fact preventing me by buying their products.I would have bought a lot of stuff from there but their customer service is horribleThe only thing that I would mention to the management, it’s about the bad customer service behind refrigeratorsOther than that everything else and the customer service in cashier always good experience

Review №43

Very bad experience with a seller from the sausage department. Her name is Larisa. Wasnt helpful at all, didnt explain anything. Moreover, she was rude and acting as if I am a stupid than hurt my feelings. And that despite the fact I am a loyalty customer. If she doesnt like people or her job, please offer her something else. Customers should not suffer from her behavior.

Cheap but good groceries. But all beverages with sugar were not the combined with the 8% tax. Some trainee cashiers make mistakes on the price sometimes, it is always better to keep an eyes on that cashier machine or your receipt and see what price is popping out.Besides English, some cashiers can understand Russian, Uzbek, Arabic, Albanian and Chinese languages. But NFC payment is still not available at all which is not so friendly for this COVID situation.

Review №48

A really interesting store filled with Russian, polish and Eastern European foods. They also have some halal items and halal meat. Really cool to see all the stuff here you won’t find in the other stores. Only complaint is, I saw one of the head cashiers or managers being really rude to one of the male cashiers today. She yelled at him to go back on register and then rolled her eyes at him. I found that to be distasteful as a customer to see an employee treated that way. All employees and customers should be treated with respect, even if they are a pain in the ‘you-know-what’.

Review №58

Mostly Russian/Eastern European food choices but welcoming to all. They have a large very varied produce dept, deli, bakery and even freshly made ethnic foods all cooked on premises. They also have an in-house butcher, excellent selection of meats and extremely reasonable prices. However, they are almost always busy. The store can sometimes be very crowded, even with all registers open waiting in line takes time and despite a good size parking lot finding a space sometimes take long. Also, you can not take the shipping carts to your car. There are barriers that dont allow room for the carts to get out. This cause more driving/parking issues as people pull up to the curb of the store to put groceries in their cars.

Purchased a cake yesterday at the market. Not the first time buying and the cakes were always tasty,fresh and gave me a home made feeling. But, I was never forced to buy a half or the quarter of the leftover cake on the display. Right there I should have say,eat it yourself. The lady who was selling it,was short, kinda like want it or not, and get out of my sight..... Wasn’t rude but looked fed up. Anyhow, it’s not my business, and I believe it wasn’t her who left that old, dry and stale leftover cake in the fridge,on display. The cake, and I forgot the name of it, was bad! I know for sure because I eat at the morning and the next was the cake. My nightmare started last night, stomach, dizziness, nausea and diarrhea. I even told my husband that it has a funny taste.Be careful ! The nice and decorated look doesn’t mean quality and the date of expiration is changed often. DO NOT BUY CAKE ! BE CAREFUL!I’m looking,how and where I can complain or file for a complaint, or to send out an inspector.I STILL HAVE A PIECE OF THE CAKE, ANYBODY WANTS IT ?

As far as merchandise I love it.Lots of varieties and reasonable prices.As far as workers are very ruth, roll their eyes at u when u order more stuff than at the register gives u ATTITUDE if u pay with food stamps card. Yes, I get food stamps for my handicapped daughter and bcause I deal w BREAST CANCER and had a knee full replacement surgery. Dont judge the book by is cover, its God place to judge not yours and keeping in consideration that I drive 1hr and 20 min to ur store I dont think I deserve that kind of treatment and NOBODY DESERVES THAT. If u dont like ur job than go somewhere else.

Love this place ! Unfortunately can’t come often here( almost 1 hour drive one way ) but Every time I go there, i feel like I am back in time when I was little in Soviet Union with dirty stores, nasty customer service but some very familiar items on the shelves . It’s Kind of like Christmas morning for me :) unfortunately some ( not all!) people that work there very grumpy and sometimes nasty ( I feel sorry for them:( one of them is an older lady at cake department . One time she made me feel totally like back hone long time ago ( to the point where I was visibly upset, but atleast that showed my husband how was it “ there”

Never have I ever tasted produce so fresh and delicious! My favorites are their kiwi and mango. They also have an amazing bakery with fresh pastries and bread. Another great thing about Bells Market is their pharmacy...it is hard to find a great one in the area...so this is quite the gem! Bells Market also has great prices and top-of-the-line products. The staff are also very friendly and helpful, and will take the time to help you find what you need. I dont shop anywhere else!

If I could give zero stars I would. This place is filled with expired food. You buy something and the next day it’s bad. Purchased a tiramisu here and it was made out of cream cheese that has clearly gone bad. Every time you purchase a salad here or anything from the deli after a day in The fridge it’s bad. Do not waste your money here
