    Very cool market next to Lake Martin. Small grocery store with a deli serving food. We went for a few groceries that we didn't bring along for our weekend at an Airbnb. Fun shopping and the person helping inside noticed two guys with a grocery list and walked us around to find every item LOL! I was even able to get a couple of cigars! We didn't eat there, so I can't comment on the food, but what a quaint environment. Don't forget to go down the hill to the stables and check out the horses.

    Catherine's is the place to go on Lake Martin. It's the closest local supermarket on Hwy 63 near the Kowaliga bride and Kowaliga Marina. We have been going here for probably 10 years whenever we go down to the lake. There are two parts to Catherine's: the market and the cafe. The market always has fresh vegetables, meat, fruit, etc. They also have a variety of wines. They have a decent amount of the necessities that you would need, but not a huge variety of choices because it's a smaller market. Be prepared because it is a little pricey. You're going to pay more here than you would say Publix for the same thing. The Cafe is wonderful. This is 90% the reason we go. Their bakery has a wide variety of muffins and sweet treats (the Heath cookie is awesome). I have eaten here hundreds of times for breakfast and lunch. Their breakfast is phenomenal. I usually get the French toast (my favorite) or one of the omelettes. For lunch I love the ranch bacon chicken panini or the chicken salad. We've dined at the cafe many times and have always been pleased. There is a nice patio outside if you want to eat there as well. The employees are always friendly and welcoming. Overall, I love Catherine's and appreciate the good service we always receive!

    When you're staying on Lake Martin, this is the go-to spot for groceries, meats, wine, and bakery items. Although the address says they're in Alexander City, it's actually about 14 miles south of the city center along 63. They've got a surprisingly good selection of wine and craft beer and the bakery items are fresh and tasty. As another reviewer noted, Catherine's is kind of like a mini Whole Foods with high quality produce & groceries. It feels a lot like the kind of small marketplace you might find on the west coast in California or Oregon. Besides the pre-made food, they've also got a full cafe menu for breakfast with French toast, eggs, bacon, grits, and more and a lunch/dinner menu with salads, burgers, sandwiches, soups, etc.... There's indoor seating and a nice covered outdoor patio as well with plenty of additional seating. During the summers they've got an ice cream stand outside the store -- I think it was $3 for 1 big scoop or $4 for two scoops in a cup or cone. I indulged in the chocolate in a cone, and it was a nice cool treat for a muggy summer afternoon. They've also got free wifi in the cafe, so it's a great place to come and get a little work done while you're on vacation.

    I eat at Catherine's all of the time, and have never been disappointed. Recently I have also had occasion to shop in the grocery side. We forgot a few key (and obscure) ingredients for our Memorial Day BBQ. Catherine's had them all, which was remarkable since we are 15 miles from the nearest big box grocery store.

    Good but limited items in grocery, mainly "gourmet" food. Great wine and beer selection. Expensive.
