Essentials

Closest chain supermarket to the flat. Good produce, and decent prices on basics like milk, juice, eggs, etc. Otherwise the selection trends toward national, big brand choices.

Second closest market to the flat offers a much nicer selection of organic foods. Produce is decent, fruit is not so god for some reason. Large beer selection. Open 24 hours, which is a plus.

Best produce and fruit in the neighborhood. Open 24 hours. Kind of small otherwise, but they have good beer selection and a nice selection of organic foods.

Super fancy grocery, next to their super fancy wine shop. Really the only butcher, fish or cheese monger in Fort Greene so it's worth a trip for your high end needs. Really good stuff. Fresh bread.

Shopping

Excellent selection of wines and liquor. Service couldn't be friendlier and prices are reasonable.

Food Scene

Red Lantern Bicycles doubles as a coffee shop and it's on point. Colin, Bradford and Joel are excellent barista. Shop has a bit of a punk vibe, which is refreshing for this part of BK.

Great spot for Chicken and Waffles, and the burger is real good. Pretty much can't miss weather it's brunch or diner. Sit at the bar if you don't want to wait for a table. Best cocktails in the area

If you're familiar with Marlowe and Sons and Diner in Williamsburg you'll like this spot. It's their take on gourmet Italian food, locally sourced seasonal menu. Excellent cocktails.

Their coffee is seriously good but they have the worst service. Decent spot to sit outside on a nice day though, so occasionally I make an exception.

Drinks & Nightlife

Really hip beer and cocktail bar located in a former garage. Big outdoor patio that's kind of a scene in good weather. Excellent spot if you want to drink and stay fairly close to home. 15min walk.

Probably the best bar in the neighborhood, but it's seriously a dive. Disclaimer - my opinion is wrought with nostalgia for a time when Fort Greene wasn't so hip. It's authentic and unpretentious.
