My go-to for general groceries, though I prefer buying produce at Mr. Lemon. The specialty store Foster's Sundry is nearby, though my favorite speciality market is MeatHook in East Williamsburg. The most convenient Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are at Union Sq in Manhattan. There is also a Whole Foods walking distance from the Bedford L stop in Williamsburg.
