101 SOUTH MAIN STREET

Prior to the construction of the current two story building that stands today, the historic location hosted the Carmichael Store which was owned by Mack Carmichael - the first child born in Enterprise. The store was erected in 1887 and was the first in Enterprise! The Carmichael Store also operated as the post office and a local gathering space.

​

The current building was constructed in the 1920s. In 1935, Lasseter Brothers Hardware moved in and the Saloom family lived upstairs in the building. Soon, Lasseter Hardware carried a line of funeral caskets and the second floor became the funeral division. In 1937, the building became what it is most often remembered as: Butner's Variety Store. In the 1930s, Eloise's Shoppe moved into the second floor of the building. In 1941, the shoppe was converted to the Butner's Infants & Children's Department.

​

In recent years, the building has served multiple businesses including Shoppes on Main, Hid-n-Treasurers, Travis Tans and Butner's Tavern.

Today, the building is a popular Italian restaurant: Cafe Roma. The menu includes gourmet pizzas, delicious pastas, sandwiches and more.
