Recent press on our new favorite restaurant and market—Camden’s Dogtown Market.

From Richmond.com’s Karri Peifer:

…after a few months of regrouping, revamping the space, and completely overhauling the concept, [Chef Andy] Howell has reopened the space on his own and is back to his wildly delicious (and always affordable) Mediterranean-influenced roots. 

Camden’s Dogtown Market, the new name for the totally new spot, is a market / restaurant that’s now open Monday – Saturday with gourmet market wares, and then for lunch and dinner on the same days.

Catch the full-story here.

And from Style Weekly’s Deveron Timberlake:

In the same way that Camden, the mystery-breed dog, is a friendly mascot, the retooled Camden’s Dogtown Market at 201 W. Seventh St. is a food business mongrel. Chef Andy Howell has turned the short-lived Ejay Rin noodle bar into a catch-all affair that’s whetting the appetites of those who’ve known and loved his cuisine at Café Rustica, Avenue 805 and Zeus Gallery Café.

Read the rest here.

And for the full story, just come on down to the Corrugated Box Building.

Tumblr has incredible leadership and a wonderful team here in Richmond. We’re honored to work with them and glad they are able to grow further here in the Corrugated Box Building. Here’s to their continued success! 

Bagels at Camden’s Dogtown Market!

Lots of good news from our friends at Circle S Studio! 

hhrva:

Anyone that lives or travels by 5047 Forest Hill Ave knows when the folks at Blanchard’s are hard at work roasting their coffee. We have been lucky enough to have access to truly locally roasted coffee. It doesn’t get more local than a few blocks. I heard rumors a little bit ago that…

Looking forward to having Blanchard’s here in Manchester—one block East of the Corrugated Box Building! 

Work has begun on the new digs for Tumblr in RVA in the Corrugated Box Building.  

Although Chef Andy Howell has asked us to keep mum, Camden’s Dogtown Market is open and we, here in the Corrugated Box Building are, of course, delighted. For all the details and the early reviews, check out this mention from Hills and Heights, and be sure to “like” Camden’s on Facebook.

We’re excited about the delicious lunch and dinner offerings, daily specials, groceries and beer and wine. See you there!
