We’re constantly on the move trying new places, because if we didn’t, this site would get stale and you would be forced to read… actually let’s not think about that. But even though we have to cover a lot of ground, there are a few spots we return to often because they are Perfect For so many things. Jeffrey’s Grocery is the ideal example of that. This is one of the few restaurants in this city where we’re legitimate regulars.
When Jeffrey’s Grocery first opened, it was a kitschy little cafe that also tried peddling groceries. Realizing that there was absolutely no need to sell milk and eggs to people who were just looking to go face deep into some raw bar, the restaurant went through a makeover for the best. They ditched the faux store-front, upgraded the chef, and made the most out of the space.
Even though we’re here so often, we hadn’t updated our review since all these changes for the better were made. So here we are to tell you that this place is still awesome. We love Jeffrey’s because the people are friendly, it’s easy to get in, and the food is great – especially the raw bar and the incredible clam chowder. It’s our go-to West Village weekday lunch move, and one of the better brunch situations in town because you generally won’t have to wait. It’s also just a fun place to hang out, and that’s important in our book.
More important than groceries.
