Big Daddy Grocery can be a bit intimidating, I'm not going to lie. Every time I visit Beaufort and…read moreventure off of the waterfront for something, I pass by this place and tend to be reminded of several "stab and grab" convenience stores during my travels, but during the day, I decided that I would give this place a try... plus I had hubs with me so I felt a bit safer. Honestly, this was a fun convenient store that made me question my first judgement. I probably wouldn't venture here at night alone, but during the day, it had all of the things we needed: paper towels, ice, and some snacks. Nothing special about Big Daddy's, except maybe the name, and the Christmas decor on the outside, but it did meet our needs on this Sunday afternoon in Beaufort.

They display a bunch of unique snacks and food, in addition to a plethora of wines, beer and champagne. But the real gem is the case at the front of the store next to the register that holds the HUGE homemade truffles. I did not get a picture of them all because I ate them too quickly, but I got the banana split, the pb fudge, strawberry something or other and they all were fantastic. I went back to bring some home with me. Would go back solely for these truffles.

I was kind of hungry since coming off the sunset night cruise that only had a bar and popcorn! I didn't feel like hanging in a restaurant at 9pm so I walked around town taking pictures. Driving out, I passed this familiar market! It's 11pm that I'm here and I think it stays open til midnight. It's basically a smoke shop but it has ice cream sandwiches, turkey sandwiches, chips and I even got a pack of cough drops! Thx village market- you're a gem.

However, it is worth noting that when it comes to late night beer runs Ken's is safe. Not only is it located practically on the UNC Campus in University Square adjacent to Granville Towers (which has its own security), but it's only a few doors down from a satellite office of the Chapel Hill Police Department. The staff is nice as well, even late into the night. If the party's gone dry, you need a late night sugar fix, or are just in search of this week's Vogue, Ken's will likely have it. And, more importantly, as safety has recently become an issue in Chapel Hill Ken's might be a wise choice.

There seems to be plenty of parking. I'll be back.

No need to go to the cramped CVS pharmacy on Fayetteville for basic medicine needs. In the drink area they have all the favorites -- sodas, teas, juice, energy drinks, and even beer and wine. The only thing they DON'T have that I wish they did is UNsweetened seltzer -- they only have a sweetened kind that I really don't like. For food they have a small frozen section with frozen food and ice cream, then a snack section, a Krispie Kreme booth, and even some things to take home to cook (soup, mac n cheese, etc). In terms of medicine, they have pretty much anything standard you'd need. It's not a pharmacy but there's meds for allergies, cold/flu, pain, and more.
