If you prefer to see and be seen, Woolworth on 5th is the place to meet
and mingle. The former Woolworth five-and-dime was the site of
lunch-counter sit-in protests in the ‘60s, where a young John Lewis was
arrested for the first time. The registered historic site has been strikingly
restored, with the original floors, railings and even the former store’s
“Information” sign still intact. It reopened with great fanfare earlier this
year, and has become a dining destination for the town’s politicians,
power brokers, locals and looky-loos alike. The Sweet Potato Pancakes
and the Corn Cakes with collard green pesto are standouts. For lunch,
try the Blue Ribbon Salad, the Woolworth Burger with pimento cheese,
or Fried Chicken Livers. woolworthonfifth.com
