Directly to the south is the local Turnip Truck grocery store. Granted it's a limited service, whole organic store, so it doesn't exactly fit my definition of a true grocery store because of it's incredibly limited selection and small size.

It really is only a matter of time before Publix comes into the downtown/midtown marketplace and likely would be in either SoBro or more likely whatever Northwestern Mutual is planning in the North Gulch near Charlotte Ave.
