I have had the rosemary and honey goat cheese and it is such a rich spread for bread. I also highly recommend the cow blue cheese and it pairs perfectly with red wine and fig spread. The cheese is sold by weight and you will spend about $5-$8 per serving. Last weekend the husband of the cheese maker was selling the cheese and he was hilarious. Definitely check them out while at the WWFM.

When my parents from Napa Valley CA came to visit they were completely blown away at how incredibly decadent, mouth watering and FANTASTIC the Hillsborough Cheese Company Cheeses were. I purchased 4 different types for them to savor and while they loved them ALL they completely loved & devoured the Camembert. So quickly so, that I had to return the next day to Weaver Street Market (where they sell it among a few other places) and buy some more. I cannot say enough about how this fabulous and smart small cheese company TRULY KNOWS THEIR STUFF!! Way to go Hillsborough Cheese Co. and thank you so much. I am a fan for life!

Blue Dogwood Public Market is more of a food hall and collaborative space with multiple vendors and an event space for cooking-related classes. It's so heartwarming to see ALL LOCAL vendors at this location considering the development going on in and around Franklin St with multiple chain restaurants and stores coming up every other week. I was there on the opening weekend so this place wasn't completely functional yet. But I still had a chance to look around and taste some food too. I had a gluten-free cannoli from pizzelle bakery (everything here is GF) and it was awesome! The other vendors include: *Soul Cocina *Vegan Flava Cafe *Common Bar Area * Pizzelle Bakery * Rumi Persian Cafe * Left Bank Butchery * Chocolatey Confections There's a great outdoor seating area too. Can't wait to check this place out when it's fully operational.

They did have a little salmonella scare 2 years ago but so do a lot of people. Also they caught it very quickly and addressed everything. This tastes so good it makes me proud to be a North Carolinian/American. I usually can't digest cheese but I actually tolerate Chapel Hill Creamery Cheese pretty decently. Their cheese has different proteins than most store bought cheese so it's actually easier to digest. I could go on about the taste but just having a local cheese maker who makes original quality cheeses is awesome. Chapel Hill Creamery captures all of the sunshine and bliss and southern charm of Chapel Hill in their cheeses. I love going to different farmers markets and finding CHC cheese.

Fresh Mozzarella -- you can snag a bag for $6 (super creamy and clean -- not the "salty" version you're used to from un-fresh mozzarella). Super yummy in a BLT! Carolina Moon -- super creamy, buttery, and sticky wheel of brie cheese ($11). Has a mushroom-y flavor and is perfect paired with jam or a glass of red wine! Perfect for wine + cheese date-night. Whey-fed Pork Ribs -- can't remember the price ($15?), but they were absolutely delicious!! Cannot wait to try the rest of their cheese and pork selection!

They're always planning different activities and special events which is super nice to give back to the community.

This grocery store has so much to offer and more on the higher quality end which I love I would rather have quality over quantity any day. The service from the staff is absolutely impressive and they are so helpful and informative. The store is so clean and organized. The produce is so fresh and the meat counter everything looks so fresh and doesn't have that funky smell that some grocery stores have. I definitely come here when I am in the area as it's so worth it.

You can order on your phone, so not much to say about service but I didn't have any problems. I got a sandwich that I built and it was delicious and well toasted, so did my friend.

Overall: cool, classy yet casual place in chapel hill to get affordable food and chat with friends over a drink!

It's not far from the 40 exit. This is a great store and is laid out like the store in Morrisville where I usually go . They no longer have the burger/ sandwich grill but do still have the area where you can sit and eat. There are many other ways to get something to eat there and it was clean when I was there. I was pleased to find many items that I can't find in other stores. The prices are as good or better than the discount stores on many items! I have tried several of the wegman paper products and have been happy with them all. Again, cheaper than the discount grocery stores. A nice shopping experience!

I am very disappointed that that wegmans apparently stocks bad items like this.

They have a huge variety of items--from home goods and specialty foods to books, toys, kitchen items, and unique gifts. If you're specifically looking for locally made Durham souvenirs, there aren't a ton of local artisan items, but there are still some fun Durham-themed finds. I picked up an adorable "Meet Me in Durham" sticker that made the perfect keepsake from my summer here. Definitely worth stopping in if you're downtown and have some time to explore. Plan for a crowd on Saturday mornings, but it's part of the lively atmosphere!
