Future of Bodegas & Liquors Thrown Into Question
We’ve gotten a number of emails from folks wondering about the fate of Bodegas in Clinton Hill and Liquors in Fort Greene, both of which have been shuttered for the past couple of weeks.

We’ve gotten a number of emails from folks wondering about the fate of Bodegas in Clinton Hill and Liquors in Fort Greene, both of which have been shuttered for the past couple of weeks. We hear, but cannot confirm, that the owners have run into some financial troubles and that both will be closing. We hope for their sakes and for those in the neighborhood that this isn’t true. Also, what does this mean for Lewis & Ruby’s?
Yeah the food at Lewis & Ruby’s was a major disappointment. Hopefully whoever reopens the spot will provide something special.
I must admit that I love the aesthetic of Lewis & Rubys and what it offers to my neighborhood but the food isn’t that good IMO.
Shahn, Locanda Vini e Olii around the corner from your soon to be abode is really nice, and great for groups of friends as it lends itself to sharing… Kush is nice too – plus there are all of the places on Dekalb Ave.
I second you on the salmon dish at Liquors… very nice. They mixed nice drinks there too.
Go to Kush, the food is really good and the service is great. Jacques and gang are very nice. Brunches are very tasty… (Fulton/Putnam b/t Cambridge Pl. and Grand Ave.)
I eat at Boca Soul across the street a few times a week. I like their food, but we sure could use some variety in the restaurant department in this area. Subway is not a great place to take friends out to dinner.
i wished they had had announced prior to closing, i would have gone to Liquors one more time to have the hijiki covered salmon with coconut cashew rice… ohh, i miss it…
I’ll miss Bodegas but only because the neighborhood is woefully underserved. It wasn’t that great. This is an opportunity for someone to open a much superior place.
All three closed!
I spoked with Christian few weeks ago and he told me that he was tired of the restaurant buisness and found some better ways of making a living, if that’s the case, I want to belive him I wish him good luck.
It will be interesting to see what happens in the bodega location, hopefully even a better restaurant or a great gourmet grocery, come on! anyone out there awake inhalf to notice the potential of this corner and the all fulton street, there is not conpetition there yet! As I live near by I just wish that something will happen soon, I’m tired of going to shop and dine in other neighborhoods. Has anyone notice the fence up on the empty lot next to the checker board building in Fulton? What’s coming up? It says condos
