Check out the progress on FreshTake grocery store in Augusta

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Construction continues on the FreshTake grocery store on Washington Road.

We went to the store on Friday to see the progress.

Originally, the store projected it’d be open Aug. 30, but it looks like it’ll be a while longer.

As far as groceries go, FreshTake will have traditional items as well as organic and specialty offerings.

The store will reportedly have many take-out and catering options plus a beer and wine bar with small bites, sushi bar, coffee bar, pizza and pasta bar, hot bar, bakery, sandwich and salad bar, seafood, juice and smoothie bar, specialty cheese and an outdoor barbecue smoker.

FreshTake has been taking shape in recent months at 2907 Washington Road near Bonefish Grill.

It’ll be a focused on the customer experience, with ample places to hang out, including a two-story indoor/outdoor seating area with balconies. And being about a mile from Augusta National Golf Club, it’ll have a putting green.

The store will also include a “beer cave,” a flower department and a pharmacy that’ll offer vaccinations.
