Ellwood Thompson's Adds 1,600 Feet of Cooking Space

Our organic friends at Ellwood Thompson's Local Market are expanding, and the beneficiaries will be pretty much anyone who gazes longingly at the prepared foods available in the Carytown grocery store. From the release:

Ellwood Thompson’s Local Market is pleased to announce the expansion of its Carytown store. The company is acquiring the space currently occupied by the Blue Fox Café at  10 S. Thompson Street (formerly High’s Café).

The 1,600 square foot space, located directly across from Ellwood Thompson’s, will be used as an auxiliary kitchen and food preparation area to support the store’s ever-increasing prepared food business.

“We’re very excited about the opportunity to expand our food production capabilities,” says Ryan Youngman, CEO of Ellwood Thompson’s. Youngman continues, “Customers can look forward to a greater variety and additional quantities of prepared foods from Ellwood’s Kitchen.”

Ellwood Thompson’s will take occupancy of the space no later than November 20. In the future the company may use the space for a restaurant, catering, special events or possibly a small retail outlet.
