Gourmet Grocer in Southwest Durham
This is exciting news: the University Marketplace developers have selected an anchor tenant for the project on University/Shannon, Poppies, a gourmet grocer with outdoor seating and garden space. A gathering place that the SW Durham folks could bike to! The grocery will be LEED-certified, apparently the first of its kind in North Carolina.

Major cool. Mmm, gourmet grocery. Good for the tummy, bad for the pocketbook. Tummy wins, usually, with me.
Trader Joe’s isn’t so bad on the pocketbook! But we will have to see about Poppies. I’m just dreaming of live music on the lawn in walking distance again, mmm.
Poppies in Brevard?!?! That’s great news. We happened upon the store last summer on vacation…amazing place with a great selection, tons of samples, and a really nice cafe.
Of course, being on vacation in the NC mountains probably helped elevate our mood and impression of the place. But even if the new location is only half of the cool of their site in Brevard, I predict it’ll be a winner.
Thanks for sharing the news!
Thanks for that review! Yes, it’s the same Poppies.
