Bracey has very few grocery options and this is one of them! Furrs is a little gem however, and you can often find local meat and veggies as well as full racks of ribs slow cooking on the outdoor smokers!

Part gas station, part convenience store -- the BEST part is the baked goods. Made fresh on the premises, JB Jones is not to be missed for a special occasion cake or just a treat!

Contemporary fine dining -- Leading the culinary charge, the menu at Blue Jay Bistro is a reflection of Chef Fleming’s past experience: honoring North Carolina through locally and regionally sourced ingredients, while pulling from bold influences across the South, such as her hometown of Houston, TX. The menu constantly rotates based on seasonality and local availability.

Grocery stores
Other than Furr's, this is the spot for groceries in Bracey. You'll be able to get the basics, but for veggies and fruit and other healthy options you'll need to head to the larger grocery stores in South Hill VA (Food Lion, Walmart, Piggly Wiggly) or Littleton NC (Food Lion). This store does have lots of shelf stable items as well as beer, wine, milk, eggs, ice cream and other basics. You can also find those items you may have forgotten like flip flops, sun screen etc.
