Outdoor noshing season is officially in full swing, what with the opening of Riis Park Beach Bazaar and now two of Smorgasburg’s satellite smorgs. The Williamsburg and Fort Greene institution’s Seaport location opened today, and a Coney Island outpost opens Saturday.
Per an announcement today, Coney Smorgasburg, at 1320 Bowery Street (at Stillwell Avenue) will boast two bars and 13 food vendors, including Blue Marble, Bon Chovie, Dan & John’s Wings, El Super, Excell Kingston Eatery, Home Frite, La Newyorkina, Mile End, Mofongo, Queen Cobra Thai, and Red Hook Lobster Pound. It’ll be open Friday through Sunday beginning this weekend and daily starting June 22.
Meanwhile, Seaport Smorgasburg — which, it’s worth remembering, is a cobblestone’s throw from the Lower East Side — is already up and running, as you can see from these nifty geometric pods designed by Brooklyn’s own Guild. Aside from offering vendors some cover on chilly days such as this one (ahem), these things have electricity, running water, refrigeration, lighting and locked storage. Neato!
As usual, there’s a bar serving $6 draft beers, $8 wine from Brooklyn Oenology, and $12 cocktails.
There’s no shortage of additional seating.
Here’s a look at everyone’s menus.
Seaport Smorg takes over Fulton Street, just off of South Street, Monday through Thursday from 11:30am to 8pm, Fridays from 11:30am to 9pm, Saturdays from 10:30am to 9pm and Sundays from 10:30am to 8pm. It’ll be around till mid-October.
