Beyond fresh, marbled to perfection, they were delicious. This morning I cooked the sausage and made a cinnamon roll sausage egg bake and also absolutely delicious. It's certainly a warehouse type facility, so don't expect fancy decor, but we will be back. The service, the pricing, and the food were all top notch!!

The stars of the show are the fresh ground smash burgers! They have it down to a science. I love the Pimento cheese smash burger with bacon, bacon jam and optional jalapeños. I've heard good things about the black and blue burger as well. They have a variety of sides but the burger is a meal. It was a former gas station but they added a couple tables inside and out! It's clean and comfortable but if you want ambiance get it to go.

They constructed this "shack" to give a storefront to their meat selection alongside Cartwright Farms, and it's a great place to shop.

The Vaughan Family has been farming and living on the same land since the early 1700's…read more Sustainable farming is not just a phrase, it is a way of life passed down from generation to now the 8th generation. They have been named a Century Farm in Virginia, and now also a Bicentennial Farm and are proud to still be actively farming. Sustainable farming is a way of ensuring that the land, and all its resources are maintained for future generations. Promoting soil health, managing water runoff and using natural fertilizing techniques are all ways that they are being good stewards of the land. This has always been a way of life, but the business of Coastal Cattle began as an idea of their then12 year old daughter in 2014, and has expanded since then. She wanted to use her knowledge of cattle gained through local 4H livestock club and start a herd. Her very first project steer at the age of 10 was a Hereford and she instantly fell in love with the breed. They are docile, easy to work with, great for children to be around and of course beautiful! ​ She and her sister helped to pick out the first bred heifers and cows that started Coastal Cattle. The original idea was to start raising pure-bred show cattle to be used for our local area 4H Livestock shows as well as other regional livestock competitions. Showing cattle is a lot of work, and a lot of fun, but eventually they started thinking bigger. ​ ​ They were hearing the desires of so many people who want to know where their food is coming from. People want to be in control of what they put into their bodies, and they quickly saw and understood the need for a good product. So expanding into the direct marketing of the beef produced by the ever expanding herd was the natural progression of the farm. ​ Incorporating rotational grazing, and the herd into other farming practices has proven beneficial for the land and the farm. They go hand in hand, crops and livestock. Not only are they producing a good product for the consumers, but they're protecting our natural resources as well.

We're visiting family in the area and decided to make a brisket. Found Village Butcher Shop on Yelp…read moreand gave them a call to confirm that they had the correct size brisket. Most butcher shops have the full 15 lb brisket but nothing smaller, Village Butcher had an 11 lb brisket. Headed to the shop and found it to be clean and bright, with a large display case full of options. The shop owner was pleasant and professional. We got the brisket and added 4 lbs of burger meat. We taste tested the burger meat vs some store bought that we had and obviously everyone preferred the flavor and texture of the Village beef. The true test came the next day with the brisket. First time making the recipe and it called for 6.5 hours in the oven. Completely covered in foil, so we had no idea how it was going. It came out fantastic, super tender with great flavor! Village is worth returning to!

Family for 2 Meat Plan for only $57.40! Can't beat that…read more Getting a meal plan with a variety of cuts of meats is so much better than getting them individually from the supermarket. Not only is it cheap, but the quality of the meat are much more superior. They're individually packed and labeled so they're easy to store in the fridge or freezer if they won't be consumed immediately. All you have to do to get this deal is call one day in advance. They also allow for substitution (i.e. turkey bacon instead of regular bacon; just be sure to ask if they have it first) and will inform you of any out of stock meats but they're more than happy to replace it with something equally as good. With the amount of meat we got, our dinners will surely last close to two weeks! That's cheaper than what we get buying mass produced cuts of meats at the grocery store. Overall, we would definitely come back!

A small shop but also offers some frozen items and now has beer and wine. They do a really good job and we usually always buy our fresh meats there now.

They also have things like fresh Turkey wings, and pork chops.

VA Goods is located in Selden Market, the incubator space mall in Downtown Norfolk, and it offers exactly that, goods made in VA. You can find anything to food products, jewelry and even glass blown items that is made my the owner herself, who is a glass blowing artist, among many things. - Parking - There is street parking available, as well as, the parking garages nearby. The one I like to park at when going to Selden Market is the Hilton Main parking garage as it is attached to Selden Market. If you get off on level P1, it will lead you directly inside Selden Market. What I found: I was specifically looking for VA-themed stickers and thankfully I found one that is in the shape of the state, with mountains on it with VA printed on it. I also found some VA is for lovers rubber keychains and VA peanuts! I got some chocolate covered and some Old Bay flavored. Mmm, maybe my friend will let me taste them once I give it to her LOL. You know how it is, just before going on a trip....so many things to do, so little time. I was so grateful this was a quick and fruitful trip! I got most of everything I needed and I was out within 15 minutes! Pro tip: At the time of this writing, they are offering a check-in offer on Yelp of 20% off your first purchase! This is subject to change at any time, so don't hold me to it if it's not available anymore when you go. You snooze, you pay full price. If you are looking for unique items from VA, VA Goods is the place to go! Enjoy, Friends, and never stop exploring!
