A conveniently close little grocery store that has most of your meal basics, and if you are a meat-eater, some of the best meat in the city (so I hear). Closes fairly early most nights.

One of our favorite places to walk up to in the warm months- literally, no parking lot and it is walk-up concession-style food; awesome popcorn, ice cream cones. Pretty cheap, too.
