Profile

At their Fort Greene wineshop Greene Grape, partners Amy Bennett and Jason Richelson specialize in small producers and “handcrafted” wine. In a canny attempt to fulfill the rest of your dinner-table needs, they’ve opened Greene Grape Provisions, a gourmet grocery up the block. Here, as in many of the borough’s new breed of ecofriendly, regionally stocked mini-marts, the catchphrase is “organic, natural, and local where possible,” according to Bennett, who plans to apply the philosophy to all the basics: produce, cheese, Balthazar pastries, Wild Edibles fish, and sustainably raised beef and chicken from upstate New York.

The store has a limited selection, but it has great quality fish, charcuterie and cheese and quite decent espresso. It also has some nice olive oils. The tasty pastries, muffins and sandwiches can be enjoyed on the benches outside. The service is good.

This place sucks

I find the inconsistent meat and seafood selection, extreme prices and annoying staff to be extremely frustrating. The place is simply undependable. Several times I've been disappointed because after journeying to Provisions, I'm forced to look elsewhere for simple items like chicken thighs. Fort Greene is in desperate need of a grocery store. Between this place and the neighborhood's glorified bodegas, it's nearly impossible to cook.
