This weekend, the newly opened Company Shops Market Co-op Grocery & Cafe started offering a weekend brunch buffet spread with items like vegetarian strata, sausage casserole, oatmeal, home fries, grits, scrambled eggs and biscuits.

Nate admits that he got a little carried away with his breakfast selections. “Everything looked so good!”

It was such a nice morning for brunch under the umbrellas. Already there is a great community feel at the market. It is a great way to get to know new people from around town. We always run into people we know and often get introduced to even more people. Like this little guy. (Pets are part of the family here at Luck Photography.)

He belongs to co-op regulars, Wayne & Caroline.

If you want to enjoy some “real food” and get to know your neighbors, Company Shops is a great place to go spend a Saturday morning. An added bonus is that well behaved and well minded (by their owners) puppy dogs are allowed in the outdoor sidewalk patio areas.
