A Neighborhood Market and Deli Becomes Kimball House’s Latest Neighbor in Decatur

New Decatur market and deli opens across from Kimball House

Sean Crotty and Tauna Jecmen opened neighborhood market and deli Kelly’s Market on East Howard Avenue in Decatur, across from Kimball House, last week. Kelly’s takes over the space once occupied by the short-lived Decatur Market. Crotty tells Eater Atlanta they’ve retained a few members of staff from the previous market. Along with the usual grocery items such as produce, milk, meat, and bread, Kelly’s offers made-to-order sandwiches as well as take-home meals in its deli. The market also has a large selection of beer and wine. On-premise consumption of beer and wine is planned once the market settles into a rhythm. In addition to Kimball House, neighbors include Doggy Dogg hot dog shack next door and the newly-opened Ammazza pizzeria. [EATL]
