Store History

The building at 2002 NW 196th Street has been a part of Richmond Beach for nearly a century. Over the years, it’s been home to many neighborhood markets, a butcher shop, and, most famously, a place kids could walk to with a dollar and leave with a pocketful of candy. It’s been known by many names - Richmond Beach Supermarket, Doug’s Market, Tom & Jerry’s, Lamb’s, Richmond Beach Foods and The Little Store at Richmond Beach.

Like the neighborhood itself, the store has changed with time but always remained a local fixture. We're still piecing together its full story, and we know there are plenty of details we haven’t uncovered yet. If you have memories, old photos, or info about past incarnations of the store, we’d love to hear them. Please reach out.
