Adorable little place that is out of the southern version of Gilmore Girls, except the shopowner is a woman and the regulars are all men! Excellent eggs! Great source for milk! Delivered the old fashioned way in glass bottles, no less! Key Lime Pie was great, egg sandwich was decent but the lettuce was soft. For some reason south of the Mason-Dixon lettuce goes from crispy to membrane-like rather quickly :( Oh well, will return if I'm ever passing through again! read more

Living in a big city like D.C., a "general store" sign gets me every time. After visiting nearby Great Country Farms, my little family stopped by Bluemont General Store. Although it has general store vibes, think of it as more or a corner store with essential goods like soap, spicy sauce, and mac and cheese boxes. The more charming sections are the $1 hardback books, the soup corner, 50 cent candy necklaces, and the local kids books. Service is kind and the space is easy to navigate. read more

The ice cream is always fantastic and has a decent price for the portion. Way better than Grutos. Have been coming here for 10+ years.

Amazing spot so cute definitely check out if visiting neighboring wineries!! Owner is so sweet!

Friendly staff, quick service and good sandwiches. What's not to like? You can sit in the shade on the porch and eat. Ps - the chicken salad sandwich has apples in it. I love it, but BF does not. read more

The Bluemont General Store - Chicken salad sandwich - Convenience Stores Near Me - Bluemont, Virginia

This is a quaint little general store right in the middle of the small town of Bluemont, Virginia. We stopped by the electric car charging station in Bluemont before driving up the hill to Dirt Farm Brewery. We decided to stop into the general store for an ice cream while we waited for the car to charge. The clerk was very friendly and the ice cream was delicious. We also browsed their selection of local honey and jams while we waited. We chatted with a couple of friendly locals who were out enjoying the nice weather. If you're in the area, stop by and visit! read more

The Bluemont General Store - Convenience Stores Near Me - Bluemont, Virginia

From what I read here on Yelp I expected more, but it was not a bad stop as we were driving by and decided to explore. It's an old-school type of general store. Quaint and a bit charming, with a nice little porch to sit on and enjoy a cold soda-pop or ice cream cone. A lot of the items on the shelves were things you can find in your local grocery store or bodega, but there was also a nice mix of local jams, jellies, honey, other items and nick-knacks. Friendly service and the ice cream was pretty good. I had the blueberry cheesecake which was really good. That's pretty much it. read more

This is a funny part of the world, this Bluemont. It's like a human estuary, where the (you choose which should be which) saltwater people meet the freshwater people, where Civil War history mixes with DC commuters, where the old hands meet the new. To me, it seems as if the culture to the east is having its way with the culture that displaced the native Americans and even though this seems somehow fitting at the same time those living here now are the descendants of the robbers and not the robbers themselves and maybe it isn't so fantastic to have a Prius in every other garage after all but what do I know I'm not from these parts and even though I lived for a spell in Appalachia perhaps this is really none of my business. So please take this preamble with a grain of salt. Take what follows more seriously. This is a very cool General Store. It isn't Clem's store and it has staples that appeal more to the freshwater people than the saltwater people (or vice versa depending on the assignment you selected earlier). But so what that's the way it is. The store and Lani the gracious proprietress and her lovely staff and pulled pork sammich they made from good meat they raised I think and smoked themselves saved my life the day after 20 miles on the AT with no supper followed by a morning with no breakfast or water until like an hour after we started walking all thanks to the most insane thunderstorm I've been caught in for a long time and the flammable aspect of tents and that sucked because we were going to have couscous. We had stashed a two-day ration of food at the post office down the street, about a mile from where the AT crosses the main road. I had spied the store the day we dropped the food and thought hmm that place looks pretty cute I better be feeling hella good when we get this cache because if for some reason I'm not the siren song may play and instead of the last leg on the Trail I could find myself on that picnic table under the shade tree eating bbq and sipping on the sweet root beer. Self-control has historically not been my strongest suit. I was not feeling hella good when we arrived in Bluemont. The 55 miles had taken their toll. That no supper no breakfast thing sapped my will. The bbq was the last nail in the pine box into which my desire to slog on had slipped maybe for a short nap but go ahead and fasten that lid I don't really care at this point. We set for a long spell. One of Lani's associates was so sweet to drive us back to Harper's Ferry and the car and we headed back a day early which was all good because the rest of the family was there and we have really only so many days and it's nice to be home too. If you're hiking the AT, biking the byways, doing a little historic tour of the robber's plunder, even if you're driving your Pious to a government job in Foggy Bottom and need a little egg sammy and the coffee to keep you company on the way - the Bluemont General Store I daresay is the place for you. Truth. Thanks Lani. You and your peeps made my day. read more

The Bluemont General Store - Chickens in boxes marked "eggs." So confusing. - Convenience Stores Near Me - Bluemont, Virginia

Two and a half stars. Stopped by for light refreshments and pain relief between the hiking incident and farm trip. Life this far from the real world marches to a pretty different standard. Realistically this bare essentials store is probably hot shizz for the locals, but I'm quite aware I've been spoiled by decades of chain grocery store inventories. Kudos for neat business cards etched into doubled balsa wood, and the limited patio and picnic table seating. The sweet green bean crisps appeared on their shelves early summer, with a small sampling tray by the register to entice the uninitiated. Different sized goody packages to please any basic moderation level a glutton cares to choose. Rock candy, pickle flavored Pringles, tasty treats left and right. Glass bottle sodas taste like sweet throwbacks with a twist: vanilla cream soda, orange cream soda, cherry cola, even root beer. No ibuprofen but I claimed the lonely box of Bayer. Their eggs were a hot commodity, and gallon buckets of local ice cream. Parking is limited to the few spots beside and the two parallel parking allowances just before the intersection across the street. Thank goodness they take credit cards. read more

The Bluemont General Store - Mythical pickle chips found! - Convenience Stores Near Me - Bluemont, Virginia

Such a great little store. Love that it's the perfect country general store. Fresh pies, eggs, milk, and all the basics you need for a quick fix. The staff is friendly and the hours make this place incredibly easy and useful. read more

I stopped by the Bluemont General Store for the first time today on my birthday. I was absolutely disgusted by the fact that 5 innocent chickens was caged in a very small dog cage inside the store. The small cage was obviously designed for a small dog. My husband and I could tell that 5 chickens really want to get out of the cage. They look very suffering, uncomfortable, and hungry. They can't even move because the cage is too small. I felt traumatized as a customer and I won't come back again. I do not support animal cruelty at any kind. I urge the owner of this business to immediate remove those 5 chickens and place them in a proper chicken coop cage. It's not okay to make animals suffer at all. read more

Hard to get groceries out in remote places like bluemont sometimes but this place helps. They also had yummy pies and homemade cookies for cheap. I really liked the sugar cookies. We also picked up some local bacon and local eggs. The owner of the shop actually sells her chickens eggs. Will be back when in the area. read more

Cute place to stop by but experience was ruined by the silent employees and the warm sandwich from the cooler.

Been a couple decades since I visited the store. Decided to have some ice cream. Got the black walnut and have been dreaming of it ever since. Incredible! read more

Old old old country style general store. We tried the fried pie made by the Amish girls....so good. read more

This is a nice little place to stop if you're out on Snickersville Turnpike or even Rt 7 (although it is a mile or so off Rt 7). It is an old-school general store, with everything from coffee to fresh cookies to soda to home-made sandwiches. The cookies were good, the egg salad sandwich was quite good, and the cinnamon bread was absolutely delicious. All in all a nice place to stop for a quick break if you're in the area. read more

The ice cream is heavenly. $3 for a scoop of blueberry cheesecake or coconut chip? I'm in. Lots of other goodies here, including: sandwiches, mac & cheese, chips, and breads (FYI the mango bread was not as amaze as I imagined). read more

Wonderful cheerful service! During the Coronavirus pandemic I called in my order and they brought it out to my car and put in the trunk.

We like to stop here to enjoy some ice cream when we are passing through. The portions are generous and all taste like homemade. Definitely has that small town charm! Highly recommend this store. read more

The Bluemont General Store - Cappacino crunch ice cream cone - Convenience Stores Near Me - Bluemont, Virginia

This quaint little general store is the BEST!!! ALL of the clerks are wonderful and so friendly. They have a homemade soup each day as well as chili which is incredible. In addition to that, they usually have beef stew which is also very hearty and delicious. They have a pretty good selection of things in the store and their baked goods are truly amazing. We have not had anything there we didn't really enjoy. If you are in the area you should definitely stop in. read more

I adore this little gem of a store. Huge variety of items- household products, nick knacks, food, fresh ice cream, and local goods and information. They even have books, local eggs, and other random finds. The people that work here are so nice. I only wish their hours were later. read more

I was just there and this rude lady seemed mad at me and my friends. She was not friendly at all. Good food though! Their pickles are a must!!! read more

This is the sort of place we lose when we embrace 7-11 and the craptastic Dollar Store. I come here with my kids after a trip to the playground. Thank God for quaint, well-stocked, local businesses. read more

Reminds me of my childhood and walking over to the local store for ice cream in the middle of the summer. Don't expect a Walmart out of a General Store, and I wouldn't have it any other way. They remember you and it truly feels like home to me. It feels good to know that there are actually true local stores around and not some box store taking over. read more

One of the hippest places in the village of Bluemont (where all the locals come for necessities, gossip, and ice cream). It's quaint, convenient, and it offers customers everything from friendly service and quick meals to ice cream and some items that you most likely won't find anywhere else. The front porch is a great place to enjoy a treat on and to enjoy the rural environment of Bluemont Virginia. read more

I go here almost everyday for breakfast before school or work. i love it! if your from the city (like arlington ) you may not realize how great life is in a small town. there is everything here from chickens to take home to your coop to milk, ice cream, bbq, sandwiches, books, cofffee, dog food, etc. if your looking for a quaint place to stop on ur travels this is it. read more

Love having the store so close! You need it they got it! Must try the bacon, milk, pasta sauce, and the local eggs of course. It's a great place for people to meet up... Right off of 7...and share some ice cream. read more

This general store caught our eye on the way to peach picking and we new we had to stop in on the way back. We chose some sandwiches and chips and ate outside on the patio and then finished up with some ice cream. Everyone was so friendly and there was lots of hidden gems throughout the store. It was definitely a feel that has been lost with the dawn of chain shops. read more

Escape to a place where people are authentic and don't even know it - that's the beauty of it. This store will take you back in time and you will feel good when you leave - hopeful that America still exists :) rock on the bluemont store!!! read more

I stopped here with my 3 kids after a long day at Great Country Farms because they wanted ice cream. It was pretty good, and inexpensive...only $2 for a good size cup. The rest of the store was just ok, not as nice as I remember when I was a kid, but it would be worth coming back for the cheap ice cream. read more

I'm not at all sure what the previous reviewer was talking about. This place is adorable, and spotless, and seemed to me to be stocked with both necessities and treats. My husband positively raves about their BBQ pulled pork sandwich with cole slaw, and their ice cream looked delicious too. read more

This is a great local store. I don't live in the community but when I visit local wineries I stop here to get ice cream. They have a small bench outside to sit on it's a real small town feel. The lady who works here is very friendly. read more

Bluemont General Store is the best! The staff are family and you become part of this warm and welcoming family. The items they carry are perfect for that "oh, i forgot at the store and i need..." moments. And while you are there, check out the whoopie pies! OMG!!! I purchased almost two dozen for a memorial for my Dad. He would have loved this store and been there everyday for a cup of coffee (and a whoopie pie!). Stop by for a chat with the locals - become a regular and enjoy the chickens that walk around the street. Where else can you go for a ice cream cone, and walk away with 6 little peepers for your next flock? I love this store and can't say enough about it! And by the way, those whoopie pies i bought? Lasted 10 minutes at the memorial ~ Dad would have been proud! read more
