Chatham Downs - Groceries, Coffee, Banking and More - on the Southern Tip of Chapel Hill

When considering an area to relocate to, the availability of nearby shopping can be a top deciding factor.  Chatham Downs, a beautiful shopping center on Interstate 15/501, is easily accessible by residents of Fearrington Village, Pittsboro, Silk Hope, Chapel Ridge Golf Club, and popular areas around Jordan Lake.   It's just one of many options available to Chatham County, Carrboro, and Chapel Hill residents.  It is the first larger shopping center heading towards Chapel Hill on 15/501 from Jordan Lake/Pittsboro. 

Chatham Downs - Chatham County Shopping

The anchors in the Chatham Downs shopping center are Harris Teeter and Ace Hardware.

Chatham Downs - Chatham County ShoppingHarris Teeter is a popular Raleigh/Triangle grocery store.  There are new stores popping up all the time, with about 170 stores across 6 states right now.

Harris Teeter has a great produce department, usually with a large organic section.  When I'm looking for zuchinni off season, this is usually one of the few places I can find it. 

They also have extensive seafood and meat departments in most stores.  In some stores, there's even stuffed clams and other specialties in the glassed-in meat case, ready to take home and bake.

Harris Teeter is a North Carolina company, headquarted in Matthew, NC.

If you've got kids attending a local school, sign up for the Together in Education program.  Everytime you shop and your Harris Teeter card is scanned, a portion of your purchase is earmarked for the school you've personally signed up to support.

Chatham Downs - Chatham County Shopping - StarbucksStarbucks Coffee

If you need a pick-me-up on the way to work in Chapel Hill, or some extra caffeine on your way to class at UNC Chapel Hill, stop by Starbucks. 

The new Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte is pretty tasty, and only 90 calories, though I have to admit my favorite Starbucks treat is the frozen Caramel Frappachino.

There are about 10 Starbucks in the Chapel Hill area, including locations inside SuperTarget, Harris Teeter, and Southpoint Mall

Great overview for relocating clients!  Harris Teeter is certainly my favorite market since I moved to NC.  I'm excited that ours is being enlarged to add a bakery and a Starbucks!

Diane - Harris Teeter is definitely on the upper end of the grocery choices here.  They're busy expanding, with three stores opened or opening within 10 miles of my home. 

Jim - Chapel Hill has a unique feel.  And even though living within the city limits can be expensive, there are a lot of excellent affordable options within easy reach!
