BANGOR, Maine — A mini-market will soon be opening in downtown Bangor, right in the heart of the city.
Salty Brick Market will offer many goods, cravings, and other needed items.
Owner James Gallagher said he's thrilled to open a mini grocery to serve the people who live downtown with products like cheese, eggs, bread, deli, and cooking items. Gallagher also owns Bangin' Whoopie.
"It's something that downtown Bangor doesn't have, too: a place where people can come in and create their own salad," Gallagher said.
Gallagher said the store will also have a salad bar, a sandwich station, soups, baked goods, and tables for people to enjoy hot tea or coffee inside.
"We will have what you need," Gallagher said.
"We've paired up with a local meat distributor, so they will be bringing the meat to us local as well," he added.
The store will have smaller portions of common day-to-day items to fulfill everyone's needs.
"If you see a recipe online and you just need an egg or two, we will be selling those," the owner said.
Construction and renovations efforts are still underway, but the store is expected to open in May of this year.
Gallagher said if there is something you would like to see at the store, let him know by messaging him through the store's new Facebook page, Salty Brick Market.
