Neighborhood Market boasts being the oldest business in Teele Square, and owner Amr Ramadam takes the name of his store seriously. He strives to make Neighborhood Market personal to the neighborhood. He greets each customer like an old friend, and chats with each person who walks through the door. Since opening its doors in 1996, Neighborhood Market has offered groceries and household items to the Somerville area. The store also features a counter of fresh-brewed coffee, tobacco products and lottery. The back of the store is lined with freezers full of frozen goods, as well as a cooler selling bags of ice.
