Photos and reporting by Stacie Joy 

Multiple EVG readers shared that Mayberry Marketplace debuted on the SW corner of First Avenue and Fourth Street on Wednesday. 

The market offers the usual corner space offerings, including sammies, salads and smoothies. (Previously.) 

We stopped by and met Mo (short for Mohamed), the manager of the deli...

He says they will be open 24/7, with a fully operational kitchen during all hours. Also, desserts, smoothies and snacks.

Other notes: Grub Hub delivery is on the way. Ice cream and frozen desserts are arriving tomorrow. No beer, cigarettes or lotto. There's a full selection of coffee drinks. 

Here's a look...

Signage reveal: Mayberry Marketplace on 1st Avenue

Signage arrived yesterday on the SW corner of First Avenue and Fourth Street for Mayberry Marketplace.

The market will offer the usual corner spot fixings — breakfast, sandwiches, coffee, groceries, etc. 

(We did have a flashback to the vintage TV series, "Mayberry RFD," which picked up where "The Andy Griffith Show" left off ... RIP Goober.)

Anyway, the corner previously housed Houston Village Farm. During renovations, we had a ghost signage reveal for a business that had a short tenure here in the early 1980s.
