About Us
Midway Market, Battle Mountain's friendly Hometown Grocer, has been a fixture in Battle Mountain since the early 1900's. Since 1959 the market has been under the ownership of the Lake family, Don and Jean purchased the Midway from Butch and Carmen Hinman in 1959. Prior to the Hinman's, the store was owned by Midway's founders Esteban and Petra Mendive.
The original Midway Store was located at 66 East Front Street in a building built by Esteban Mendive. Today the old Midway is a part of the Owl Club, in fact the main entrance to the Owl is through the old front and back doors of Midway. We moved to our current location in 1983. The name was changed from Midway Store to Midway Market as we believed "Market" fit the image of fresh better.
Our staff is friendly and helpful, ready to serve our guests and make your shopping experience pleasant. Many of our associates have worked for our company for many years.
