Harris Teeter - better than the Meadowmont and Hope Valley Harris Teeter locations https://www.yelp.com/biz/harris-teeter-chapel-hill University Place used to be known as University Mall. When we first visited University Place in 2020, it was evident it was an old-school indoor American shopping mall that had seen better days. University Mall opened in 1973. It was cut in the same mold as malls across the country, the kind that have become ghost towns and been closing over the past 20+ years. However, it was also evident *this* mall was trying to change with the times and not just die out like the others. For example, the additions of tenants like bartaco and Hawkers, with outward-facing storefronts and outdoor spaces, give the property a more modern look and feel. Silverspot Cinema, with 13 screens and stadium seating, still brings a lot of visitors to University Place. Every time we ate at bartaco, I always saw folks coming and going from the movie theater. When I ran errands on Saturday mornings and drove by, I noticed the Chapel Hill Farmers' Market in the mall's parking lot. Currently, the farmers' market is open every Saturday 8am-12pm and every Tuesday 3pm-6pm. In the winter (November-March), the farmers' market is open Saturday only, 9am-12pm. According to a January 2024 video by the News & Observer ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huEoZCpBX-E ), plans are underway to transform University Place into "an open-air shopping center with 350,000 square feet of retail space" and "60,000 square feet of offices, apartments and hotel." The farmers' market will move to a large public lawn called the Commons (the Commons per ABC11). A new Chick-fil-A will open on the site previously occupied by K&W Cafeteria. Also according to ABC11, in a March 2024 report ( https://abc11.com/university-place-in-chapel-hill-construction-temporarily-close-mall-entrance-set-to-welcome-new-tenants/14561741/ ), a location of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is on the way as is a new parking garage, with local art, that will add 150 spaces.

So far disappointed in the recent changes at the local thrift shop. It used to be a place where you…read morecould rummage through lightly organized sections and discover items for art projects, the garden, or furnishing a home after a move. Finding a small project or a new piece of clothing always felt satisfying, and the store had a personality of its own. Now it feels like a cookie-cutter version of many other thrift stores. The selection is limited, the sense of discovery is gone, and the prices are surprisingly high for a thrift shop. Even the costume jewelry appears inexpensive in quality yet still overpriced. I'm sorry to make the comparison, but the earlier experience there was genuinely much better.

All the sections look neglected but for the books..that is the one very nice area TENDED BY VOLUNTEERS so there's a problem here.

It is located in downtown Chapel Hill, specializing in ladies fashion and accessories. They're not cheap brands but the selection is well curated. The staff were welcoming and seemed very attentive the day I went. I think we spoke with the manager, who shared with us that there was another location opening in Charlotte. While I didn't purchase anything last time, I would stop in again.

The service was none existent because I didn't really see any workers, except at the Starbucks counter and one girl at the customer service desk.

It's also in downtown Chapel Hill so you must park in the garage since street parking is limited. If you're out in less than an hour parking is free which is good. It's to my observation that prices seem very inflated, maybe because they cater to college students? Not sure. They seemed to have a good amount of what stock they had even with their much smaller store. I can't really speak on service. While walking around we passed several employees and none of them said hello or asked for help. We used self checkout so we didn't have a check out person. In conclusion, this Target is meh.
