I personally will never step foot inside the Belmont Soda Shoppe ever again.  I was born and raise in Belmont and was a fan of the original Belmont Drug Store.  A couple of Saturdays ago I was out for a run and towards the end of the run I stopped by the soda shoppe and asked for a small cup of tap water.  It was sunny and 95 degrees outside and I was hot and thirsty.  The guy behind the counter said \""no she charges for everything\"".  It wasn't like I was asking for a large scoop of ice cream.  This is Belmont, a small town friendly community.  Obviously these people do not understand that.  I do my best to support local businesses in the downtown Belmont area and I assure you they will never receive any support from me again.  I will share my experience with the Belmont Soda Shoppe to everyone I know.
