Whole Foods Market opened Tuesday in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood, bringing along a host of local food vendors and establishing another destination for foodies in one of the city’s trendiest neighborhoods.
It is the second Whole Foods store to open in Brooklyn and the first in Williamsburg, which draws food enthusiasts from around the city to the weekly Smorgasburg food festival a few blocks away. A neighboring Apple Store also opened Tuesday.
The 51,000-square-foot, two-level store offers Whole Foods’ typical array of natural and organic foods and service departments, in addition to a variety of unique dining and first-to-market store innovations, the Austin, Texas-based retailer said.
