A well-known gas station and convenience store eyes a new spot in Lexington.

Parker’s Kitchen plans a location at 5387 Augusta Road, according to the Town of Lexington’s April Planning and Zoning filings, where the proposal is listed as “under review.”

Founded by Greg Parker in 1976, Parker’s Kitchen has grown to more than 100 stores across Georgia and South Carolina.

The company is actively developing several stores across the Midlands, including locations on Garners Ferry Road in Columbia, Earth Road in Elgin and North Lake Drive in Lexington, according to The State.

While vehicles are being fueled, appetites can be too—Parker’s Kitchen is more than just a gas station. The food-forward convenience store blends southern-style cooking with a modern retail experience.

The menu includes breakfast favorites such as fish and grits, casseroles, biscuits and gravy, and breakfast sandwiches and burritos. Parker’s is also known for its hand-breaded chicken, available as tenders, sandwiches or family meals. Other offerings include fried pork chops, catfish, liver and gizzards.

An official debut date has not yet been announced.
