Grove Deli opened June 14 on the first floor of Ferrell-Duncan Clinic at 1001 E. Primrose. The 1,100-square-foot location also has a pharmacy, which has been operating in the clinic since 1986, said Gary Grove, owner (pictured on far right with Colby Grove, assistant manager and Jeff Taylor,manager). Rationale behind the food service was to accommodate on-site patients and employees, he said. The deli employs three and is managed by Jeff Taylor; the pharmacy employs four. Menu items include sandwiches, wraps, salads and side items with smoothies to be added soon. He would not provide leasing information or the cost of the remodel. Grove's other pharmacy location is at 1522 E. Sunshine. The deli is open 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Friday.|ret||ret||tab|
