Patterson Food Center

A local grocery store and butcher counter on North 2nd Street, open early to late daily, useful for picking up something quick rather than a sit-down meal. The butcher counter is the real draw for locals, cutting meat to order rather than relying entirely on prepackaged options, which sets it apart from a standard convenience store. It's a practical stop if you're stocking up before a picnic at one of Patterson's parks or just need a snack while passing through on Interstate 5.
