MIddle East Market And Tobacco

MIddle East Market And Tobacco brings something different to Wilson, North Carolina, and folks around town are genuinely glad it's here. This is part market, part tobacco shop, stocked with Mediterranean and Middle Eastern groceries you won't find at the bigger chains. Locals will tell you it beats a run to Food Lion or Harris Teeter when you're after something special. The food selection is what people talk about most.

We've heard about fresh dates by the box, kefir, lime drinks, and coffee that one shopper called superior to anything else around. There's tea, sweets, and a range of groceries from across the Med and the Middle East, plus clothing on the shelves too. Ask anyone who shops here and they'll point you toward the fresh pita bread that comes in every Wednesday, which has a real following. The word around Wilson is that it fills a gap the town needed, and first-timers tend to say they'll be back.

The staff often get called friendly and kind, and several regulars have felt welcomed from their first visit. In fairness, folks are a little split on the service, and we've heard the occasional grumble about a phone call that didn't go smoothly. Most people, though, leave happy and glad the place exists. If you're looking for a tobacco shop in Wilson with a genuinely unique grocery side, this one is worth a stop.

Come by, browse the shelves, and time it for a Wednesday if the pita is what you're after.
