Pop Up Grocer New York City , NY
W hile New York City is known for its bodegas and other niche grocery stores catering to specific communities , there is no place quite like the Millennial and Gen Z-approved Pop Up Grocer .
After opening temporary locations in Denver , Washington DC ,
Miami , Chicago , and Brooklyn , the traveling pop-up grocery store opened its first permanent store in Greenwich Village , one of New York City ’ s trendiest neighborhoods , in March .
Located on 205 Bleecker Street , the store was brought to life by architectural and design firm Porto Architects .
Pop Up Grocer curates a variety of food and lifestyle goods and features an impressive assortment of LGBTQIA +,
BIPOC and women-owned brands . The products on the shelves are just as colorful and eye-catching as the store itself .
With its retro-looking checkerboard floor , bright-white walls , and shelves showcasing products under categories like “ Happy Hour ,” “ Boosters + Blends ,” “ Bites + Chews ,” and “ Puffs + Crunch ,” the new-age grocery store looks like something straight out of a comic book or funky cartoon . ►
