A New Generation of Candy Shops Arrives in New York With Lil Sweet Treat | Eater NY
"Sammy Levin's anachronistic Biggie's Bodega in Chinatown blends vintage smoking goods and antiques with candy and odd sodas; inspired by Rhode Island antique shops, the store sells items like Stuckey's nuts and candies, Bonomo Turkish Taffy, vintage-wrapped Hershey's bars (the top seller), and Choward's violet gum, and draws both cool-kid teenagers and older locals—Levin values the community and the stories customers share." - Bettina Makalintal
Workers were really really really really really nice if you head to the bodega get the spaghetti and the meatballs in the garlic bread it's really good Kirk is a very nice worker so make sure to say hi

Loved the breakfast sammies on buttermilk biscuits, iced coffee, kind service. Recommend. No photo but chill shop. Also a general store NYC bodega style with convenience store needs.

Friendly customer service. Wide selection of food for a quick bite if you don’t want to sit down. A little pricey, but so is everything else on the island.

The cheapest and best quality grocery store on the island 🏝️ 👏

Top notch egg sandwiches and really good coffee make Bodega a very welcome new addition to the island in my book!
There’s also any/every snack food you could dream up here, too, and super friendly staff.
Highly recommended!

What a joy - a classic convenience store that is open very late! Can't even count the number of times I've noticed that I forgot to pack toothpaste or pick up bottled water or maybe even some Pepcid AC, and they carry it all and so much more. And I can grab and go at 11:30pm. Staff could be a little friendlier I suppose but I'm not complaining.

It would be a sin to call it the 7-11 of Block Island but it is a great convenience store with breakfast sandwiches, Jamaican Pies which I would say are akin to an Empanada.

Only stocks the island’s most racist and disrespectful people. Nothing worth buying there just go to the grocery store.
