What's Open, Closed in Belmont on New Year's Day

Not surprisingly, most retail stores are open somewhat regular hours on the holiday.

Remember when a holiday was just that, when everyone took the day of to celebrate? It appears that way of thinking has gone the way of newspapers and turtle necks as utterly old fashion. With Thanksgiving becoming essentially a half-day holiday for most larger retailers and chains, it shouldn't shock you that many stores are open, albeit a bit later in the morning for some. • Town, state and federal offices will be closed today as are both post offices in Belmont. • Starbucks, at 47 Leonard St. and 112 Trapelo Rd. will both be opening a bit later than usual at 7 a.m. rather than 5 a.m. and closing a little early at 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. COFFEE!!! • Dunkin' Donuts, at 353 Trapelo Rd. and 52 Church St. will be opening at 5 a.m. MORE COFFEE…
