Where Do The Locals Go In Charlottesville? Lunch At Bodos

After a long morning of looking at Charlottesville Virginia homes, it was time to find a kid friendly place for lunch.  The perfect choice was Bodos on Emmet Street.  At lunch time the restaurant is always packed with a mixture of moms and children, professionals and UVA students.  Bodos, which is locally owned has three locations to choose from.                                                                bagels

The restaurant specializes in bagels, which they make on premises.  You can get almost any kind of sandwhich that you can think of on a bagel, as well as a variety of cream cheeses.  The children had sesame bagels with plain cream cheese which was the favorite of miy children growing up.  The adults enjoyed avocado on whole wheat, and ham and cheese on an everything bagel.  Of course you have to try the caesar salad which just may be the best caesar that you have ever tasted.

With full stomachs and happy childern we were off for a successful afternoon of house hunting.

Where do the locals go? Lunch at the gas station

Whenever you go to a new area, the key to finding the best places to eat is to discover the local hangouts.  So in Charlottesville, Virginia where might that be?  Well one of the best places for lunch is the Bellair Market.

The Bellair Market is sited on route 250 just west of Charlottesville in the Exxon station just across from the Bellair development.  That's right...in an Exxon station.  The market does a large takeout business, but there are also several tables to eat in and the food is delish. 

I stopped in yesterday to get a sandwich and ordered turkey on a 7 grain baguette with avocado, lettuce, tomatoe and herb mayonaise.  The extensive menu of specialty sandwiches is always popular offering favorites such as the Farmington and Ednam named after nearby neighborhoods.  While there pick up something to take home for dinner.  Yesterday the shepherd's pie and salmon looked particularly enticing.  Finish your meal out with a homemade browinie or dessert.

The Mudhouse also has a coffee kiosk in The Market, serving all of their signature coffees.

So join the locals and time your next fillup to coincide with lunch.
