Part of a multi-tenant property co-anchored by Chomp Kitchen and Drinks, an award-winning burger and sandwich concept, and Café Water Street. The building is an established daily traffic generator, with on-site parking plus Town Wharf parking with the Town of Warren.

The space is currently operating as a specialty cheese and provisions shop, and is in excellent condition and fully built out for food service.
