In season, hardly any of their business is construction folks. Even out of season, still less than half. Too expensive.
The construction folks USED TO eat at the Wheelhouse. I overheard the manager at Publix say recently that the Wheelhouse fire was the best thing that ever happened to their noon-hour deli counter business.
I don't go in the market anymore at lunch, but I don't remember it being any more expensive than almost anywhere else. Your post also makes me wonder who's driving all the construction vehicles I see out front at lunch. Maybe they're getting cigs and beer?
There are 2 spots next to UPS but no construction is started - I will keep an eye out. There will be no move until they are nearly ready to demolish the old building.
FWIW - someone with a store at WC Crossing told me months ago that Publix would welcome a food tenant because they make very little profit at the deli.
If a restaurant does open at Hotel Viridian and it does happen to serve lunch, Grouper sandwiches will be $19.95 on a white tablecloth. But it still could be called "The Seagrove Market".
