Westview Community Harvest Dinner

Join your neighbors for the annual community harvest dinner. The dinner has become a Westview tradition that allows neighbors to celebrate as everyone brings the year to a close. All neighbors are invited to participate. The dinner is also open to any person who does not have a community to surround them on this day.

Westview Corner Grocery

Walkable Neighborhood Market Opens

It has been just over two months that one of Westview’s newest businesses opened its doors to residents and visitors – Westview Corner Grocery. In its most recent tenure, the space at 1562 Ralph David Abernathy Blvd had been converted to a convenience store in 2009, but had served as one of the neighborhood’s grocery stores dating back to the building’s construction 1949, when it initially housed a Kroger. Over the years different grocery stores, such as Food Town, Thrift Town, White’s, and Denny’s Super Save, called the location home, until Westview residents, Patrick Berry and Steffi Langer-Berry, revived the grocery store model in April 2018. The store now offers a range of products from natural, organic and local products, to craft beer and wine.

Economic Development in Westview

Exciting progress is continuing to develop in Westview. Westview Corner Grocery is expected to open soon in the Westview Village at 1562 Ralph David Abernathy Blvd. The store, which is being opened by Westview residents, will feature natural and organic foods, produce, craft beer and wine, grab-and-go foods, and standard convenient food items.

Down the street at the intersection of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd and Cascade Avenue a restaurant is scheduled to start construction in the historic fire station building across from the Atlanta BeltLine’s Westside Trail. Breakfast Everyday, or “B.E.D.,” will feature breakfast foods, accompanied by espressos, lattes, and a range of alcoholic beverages.

Just next door to the soon-to-be Breakfast Everyday restaurant is the recently opened Clutch Bicycle Shop, an exciting addition for both biker’s given its location adjacent to the Atlanta BeltLine trail.

Westview Restaurants in the Press

Thanks to an influx of new businesses, Westview keeps being put back on the map. Eater Atlanta just released “Where to Eat and Drink in Castleberry Hill, West End, and Westview,” and KarbonStar Vitality, Greens & Gravy, and D Cafe made it on the list of places to go.

It should be noted that Greens & Gravy has been given several nods as of lately, such as being picked as Eater Atlanta’s #9 spot of “Atlanta’s Hottest New Brunches, September 2017,” Creative Loafing’s “First Look: Greens and Gravy,” and the AJC’s “This local spot is serving up some seriously good, honey-dripping fried chicken with biscuits.

Greens & Gravy Soft Opening

Greens & Gravy Soft Opening

Online Instagram celebrity chef Darius Williams already created a media buzz prior to opening his restaurant Greens & Gravy:

Neighborhood groups were equally abuzz as online reservations for the soft opening disappeared within minutes and Williams indicating that the five sold out evenings equated to 814 reservations.

The buzz did not let down. The food was on par. The deviled eggs appeared to be a social media favorite, as did the mac and cheese. The restaurant was well staffed, and the staff was well trained. Perhaps the only thing missing was the ability to pair the delicious dishes with some adult beverages; however, it is our understanding that this will be added at some point.

Greens & Gravy will officially open for brunch on Saturday, June 17, 2017.
