Food Truck Village Takes Over Former Bi-Lo Parking Lot

The former downtown Bi-Lo (or Piggly Wiggly) parking lot at 445 Meeting Street will now be home to Meeting Street Eats, a new food truck village.

Opening during the week, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., three to six food trucks will be on site for lunch diners in search of a quick meal. Meeting Street Eats will offer dedicated parking spots and places to sit and eat. The group says that it tracked 150 trucks operating locally. For information on how to get involved, contact info@meetingstreeteats.com.

All of this starts on Monday, September 30. The schedule will post on Instagram and Facebook.

When Bi-Lo vacated the property in 2016, it was controversial because the supermarket served the Eastside community, which has been without a close-proximity grocery store since. According to the Post & Courier, real estate firm Greystar purchased the address, and at the time, the company said the space would become a mixed-use property.
