– Dairy Market, Charlottesville’s premier food hall, is thrilled to announce the arrival of an exciting new vendor. Relay Active, an innovative athletic apparel and yoga studio, will be setting up shop in the former Brigid & Bess retail space.

“You know, change is good,” said Michael Rosen, Director of Hospitality Assets for Tiger Lily Capital, which manages the Dairy Market. “If you go and look at other food hall concepts, you know, you want to keep things on their toes and guests on their toes.”

Rosen says the Dairy Market will welcome three new food vendors in the next couple months, including a first-ever Indian restaurant.

While others, such as South and Central, are closing.

Nestled at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains and home of the famed Monticello Wine Trail, the Charlottesville area is a top destination for wine lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Named Wine Enthusiast’s 2023 Wine Region of the Year, the bucolic landscape is dotted with over 40 wineries, criss-crossed with hiking trails and two sparkling rivers, and anchored by a charming college town that boasts big city flavors.
