I stopped into Timbercreek Market on Preston Avenue today for lunch (and talked to Will Richey about the place) and all I have to say is that I’ve found a fantastic new lunch spot, and a place to get fresh produce, great cheeses, and darn near any kind of meat available. Clever bathroom signage is a nice touch.
Local places like this help make Charlottesville a great, cool, and delicious place to live. Once Blue Ridge Cyclery and Beer Run’s Kardinal Beer Hall & Garden open, I can see spending a bit of time there. Photos after the break.
One note: ride a bike or walk there. Parking’s going to be a challenge.
More photos at my flickr page (no longer available).
If you want background on Timbercreek Market, see the C-Ville.
