    THE CHICKEN IS WORTH THE DRIVE!! I learned about "WHY NOT CHICKEN" from a family member and thought I would give it a try. Tonight was my first time visiting the establish so I was not sure what to expect. The staff members were friendly but the service was little slow I felt, despite the dining area being quite empty for a Friday night (see image). I highly recommend the rotisserie chicken! Quite surprised/ impressed by the flavor, as well as juiciness of the meat. I sampled 3 of the veggie offerings --- the mashed potatoes where lumpy with small bits of potato skins, (not instant) and the Mac & Cheese was creamy good. I will be honest- not a fan of the green beans tonight, not cooked enough for my liking, "waxy" to chew. Sandwiches and wraps available for lighter , smaller portion meals as well. Why not give WHY NOT CHICKEN a try.

    Had to stop in and try the Why Not Chicken Salad and it was delicious! A friend had the pulled chicken sandwich and commented the smaller portion of fries vs. previous visit. Was a bit concerning how light lunch crowd was, but chalked it up our visit being earlier in the week. If crunched for time, pre-order and pick up at their drive thru window.

    New restaurant, but the owner/manager has owned others. Very friendly service and a good variety of items and sides. Delish!

    Best red velvet cookies around. Delicious warm. A little pricey but well worth it. I will buy them again.

    The best shop in town! The energy when you step in the door is heavenly. So nice and vocal so you…read morelearn quickly this is a friendly spot and you should stay awhile to feel like family. I did not plan to come here. Actually sat in the parking lot looking for someplace to eat. I saw all these little old ladies coming in and out so I knew it was good. Cakes and cakes and more cakes! They have ever kind you can think of. Seriously, chocolate to pumpkin pies, lemon, strawberry, almond joy, butter pecan...every flavor and it's all homemade. So happy to meet the staff and hear about the start of a great family business. Oh and do not sleep on the goodies in the attached stores. So many cute Christmas items and gifts. I got some beautiful ornaments and several personal Christmas gifts. What a blessing on a day of wonder.

    In some ways I'm sad this bakery is 30+ minutes away and other times I'm happy for my waistline…read more There is no bakery in Greensboro that compares. Even the one that has the line wrapped around the door in GSO. It doesn't hold a candle to the deliciousness of this little gem. Since I've discovered it, the popularity has soared and I'm very happy for them. Dawn is the sweetest and most hospitable team member to greet you when you walk in the door! She always puts a smile on our face and our son has become their certified cake caller. We love the Market! And if you haven't been lately their store addition is amazing.
