Edy’s Grocer is North Brooklyn’s very first Lebanese Market and Cafe in the heart of the historic Greenpoint neighborhood and opened last August 2020. We specialize in providing a wide range of imported groceries from all over the Middle East such as spices, oils, pickled goods, jams, and sweets. We also package our own nuts, dried fruits, grains, flours, spices and snacks in-house daily. Beyond the pink and green shelves of the Grocer, Chef Edy has curated a rotating monthly menu with his own twist on modern Lebanese cuisine. You will find an array of house-made mezze and cheeses, baked goods, man’oushe, seasonal salads and sandwiches. There is always something new to try each time you visit Edy’s Grocer!

After years of catering and trying to pivot through the pandemic, it all aligned when the former owner of “Maria’s Deli”, Maria Puk, stepped down from her business after 43 years— and Chef Edy took over and reopened the storefront as the new Edy’s Grocer!

Her growth to three thriving studios demonstrates that community-centered businesses can change lives and have a big impact.
