Fowler’s Grocery

$29.50 USD

Originally opened on E. Franklin Street in the 1920s, Fowler’s Grocery was a mainstay, locally-owned Chapel Hill institution at 306 W. Franklin St. Fowler’s was an old-school, family-run store that served thousands of students and locals for generations. Being so close to campus, Fowler’s was the go-to place for “necessities” for carless students, and was also home to the gigantic walk-in beer cooler, known to every- one as “Big Bertha.” In 1991, Fowler’s closed for good after 58 years on Franklin Street, citing changing times and stiff competition that has largely put an end to small-town grocers all over the country.

BIg Bertha!

If you were a student in Chapel Hill and didn't have a car, Fowler's was a life saver. Not only could you buy regular groceries, but Big Bertha beckoned you to come on into her freezing climes and get the coldest beer in town. This is a great tee that's a great reminder of a place that a whole bunch of college kids relied on for ALL their beer needs. Oh yeah, and their grocery needs, too.
