Fayetteville Find: Blackboard Grocery & Eatery

July 17, 2015 By Talya Tate Boerner 9 Comments

I love everything aboutย Blackboard Grocery & Eatery on Dickson from the cool, urbanย vibe to the bright open window in front of the sandwich bar. This, my friends, is a true Fayetteville findย and definitely something needed in the area.

Fayetteville Find - Blackboard Grocery!

Um, yes, they have breakfast tacos!ย Take it from someone who recently movedย fromย Dallas, breakfast tacos are sorely underrepresented inย Fayetteville. Owner Lycia Shrum hailsย from Austin, so naturally, she knows a thing or two about building aย breakfast taco.

Blackboard Grocery Breakfast Tacos

Located at 644 W. Dickson (closer to campus than not), Blackboard has been open not quite a year. The small grocereatery (#madeupword) contains stapleย grocery items, an impressive coffee/tea menu (featuring localย Onyx Coffeeย and Savoy Tea), yummy pastries, and a full kitchen in back where sandwichesย are made fresh to order. And, of course, Blackboard has gluten-free and vegetarian friendly choices.

I can easilyย give five stars toย the Latte I grabbed last week on my way out of town. It was creamy and piping hot, and I wish I had one now.

Blackboard Grocery Menu

Blackboard is a jewel box of a placeโ€”everything about itย seems thoughtfully arranged and carefully selected. I even love the font used on the menu board. Fonts matter, y’all.

Musical Pairing: (that has nothing to do with Blackboard other than a cool place deserves a cool song from a cool Austin band…)

    Do you find these neat places, or do they find you! This looks like a place I need to visit the next time we are in Fayetteville.

    I also grew up in the delta ( Wilson High School class of 1965) and now live in Springdale.
    I have been following your postings on Facebook for a few months but only recently realized you had moved to Fayetteville so now we’re neighbors again. I plan on being at Apple Blossom on Tuesday and will try to find you in the crowd. I look forward to meeting you and sharing some recollections of growing up in south Mississippi County.

      Excellent! I look forward to seeing you. Was my Momma your English teacher? Barbara Tate? Seems like she taught everyone in Wilson during that time.
