Merritt’s Store & Grill: Serving Since 1929

Merritt’s Store and Grill in Chapel Hill is known for their famous BLT sandwiches, but that wasn’t always the case. Back in 1929, the store was actually a gas station. The original owners, Eben and Ruby Merritt, ran the Esso gas station for almost five decades. The establishment provided gas pumps alongside a small convenience store, and occasionally performed car repairs. (Chapelboro.com)
