Backermann's Country Market

This place is amazing! Whenever I am near Whiteville, I make sure to stop here. I always get the silly turkey with potato salad and chicken soup. All the food is super flavorful. The market feels very welcoming, and they have loads of fresh produce. I also love all the animals outside - the goats are so cute!

Such a charming country store! They have such a lovely assortment of candies, jams, breads, and cheese. A lot of their items were more affordable than Kroger equivalents. They have a deli and soup bar attached to the store but I didn't try it this time. The service was great :)

Backermans which also builds barns and storage sheds has a highly talented team that puts together quality buildings. I highly recommend this company when you are ready to erect a barn or shed

We discovered this place by accident based on some suggestions from family and friends in Pennsylvania who frequent Amish and Mennonite markets. We drove about an hour from Cordova to get there but it was beyond worth it. We purchased fresh bread and pastries, tea, canned goods, juices, the most amazing yeast I have ever used for baking, amongst a few other things. We couldn't purchase any of the deli items this time around due to us having had many other stops along the way back, however we are absolutely returning on a regular basis to purchase from here again. The fresh rosemary and garlic bread was absolutely delicious. The lemon fried pie was so good I almost didn't share with my husband. The tea has been so surprisingly great. I used to work at Teavana back when it existed, so I'm familiar with tea and this tea from Backermanns has become my favorite tea to drink now. This time around we purchased the "back porch blend" tea and the "strawberry cream" types and they are both divine especially during these chilly fall evenings. I highly recommend this market. There's so many handmade items, natural items and fresh items (along with frozen meat and deli meats and cheeses!) that it's worth the drive from the Cordova and further areas. It's very clean inside and the staff is very polite and welcoming. We very much enjoyed our experience here.

My dad and I went there a couple of weeks ago, and most of the tables inside were marked as 'reserved'. When we asked about this, we were told that a group of 40 people called earlier to reserve the tables. My dad was furious about this, and told them we wouldn't be coming back. This was disappointing because I really loved that place. There aren't many satisfactory places to eat anywhere near where we live.

What's not to like about this place!? We dropped by on a Saturday morning to check out their mini pies for a wedding next month and I could not stop putting things in my basket! We grabbed breakfast and coffee, breakfast is made to order so put in your order and go shopping. We went out back to feed the goats (bring quarters) and grabbed some beautiful tomatoes from the produce guy out front before leaving!

Saturday last, I paid $12.00 for a coconut cream pie. What I discovered was that the pie pastry had never been cooked. It appears that the pastry was made, put into the pie pan, and then put into the freezer for later use. It then had a filling of what appeared to be Jello instant pudding, with a tad of coconut flavoring, and a few sprinkles of coconut. This pie was not acceptable to either my daughter or me. This is not the correct way to make a coconut pie. I would be ashamed to have sold such a thing in my store (for $12, no doubt). If Backermann's wishes for me to, I can make a real coconut pie and show them how it's done. This was horrible. I do not have $12.00 to waste and throw away. Yet, this pie is bad enough to go into the trash. ***You may also note that not everything in the stores have a Backermann's name on them. Some things (butter specifically) which are sold at their store are also sold in Kroger and other places; therefore, they are not making these things, but simply order them from another company. WHATEVER you purchase there, DO NOT purchase any of their pies. They are made incorrectly, and the pastry isn't even cooked..

When we first moved to the community this was the first place to feel like home . Mark /family/staff put so much love in to welcoming any and all and serving our little community with great food , advice, and a smile ! There is a reason the parking lot is always full , don't let it discourage you thinking it'll be a long wait , this place is more put together than any restaurant you've ever been to but better because if don't want to shop /browse around for homemade bakings or crafts , plantings and ext; you can always go see little petting farm in the back , you'll leave this place full , happy , and with new friends I promise!!!

Always a must stop when we pass near here.The lunch is always delicious.My kids went with the daily special which was a smoked pulled chicken sandwich. I opted for the all you can eat soup buffet. With 6 soup choices available, there's bound to be a couple that fit your fancy!

Great food, loving customer service, great products. A must stop for a cost-effective and delicious meal.
