Union Street Market

By: (Feb 15, 2009)
I was amazed to find this great store/restaurant in a small town! They sell beautiful organic produce which you have the option of pre-ordering exactly what and how much you want, or buying off the shelf when you arrive. They also have a great selection of baked goods available for purchase and/or pre-order.

I also had lunch while I was there. They do a "soup" lunch on Wednesday and Thursday, and a full lunch on Fridays. The choices are vegan and are wonderful. I am not vegetarian but I will definitely look forward to eating there again in the near future. Every meal includes the entree, bread (homemade whole wheat or cornbread), a side dish, a beautiful salad, and your beverage. The menu is listed on their website - there is very good variety. I had the hummus sandwiches (SO good), creole eggplant, cornbread, a gorgeous multi-colored salad, and kombuchu to drink (teas and filtered water also available).

The one thing I would recommend is checking out their web-site and looking at the things that you can pre-order by midnight on Wednesday for pick-up on Friday. I didn't do that (first time in) and there were a couple of baked goods I would have liked to purchase that weren't available because no one had ordered them that week. Also a couple of the produce items I wanted had already sold out. The pre-orders are boxed and waiting for pickup which is a really nice service.
