It turns out that the retail space has been taken over by Mr. Beet, a well stocked produce store/superette which offers everything from a juice bar to a sushi section. The prices are comparable to other food stores, but the produce seems a great deal. Strawberries were $.99 for a regular sized container. The same size container was available for $2.99 at KY Produce on Court Street.
It is amazing to see a food store open on Smith Street, which has been in sore need of one since Met Food Supermarket closed in 2014. We are sure local residents would agree that this is a great addition to the neighborhood.
Amidst Smith Street's restaurants, expensive gift shops, banks, nail places and multiplying chain stores, here is finally a store we can all use.

Yeah. They are all over Williamsburg and there’s a Mr Plum near BAM. On manhattan ave they have Polish items too. I love them. I will still shop at the produce shop across from Union Market because technically they are closer. But these people are also very good at what they do. Finally something people want.
Yay! So glad you featured this wonderful addition to Smith St., and as you pointed out,
so badly needed since Met Foods closed. Glad you featured it, as it would be easy
to miss for anyone who doesn’t regularly walk those blocks. When I first moved here
from the West Coast, what surprised me (one of the many things) was that one could easily
miss a business that was just two blocks away, if one didn’t walk those blocks. So we
depend on you to keep us informed and PMFA is one of the things I’m thankful for today.
Indeed, thank you for letting us know! I would lose track of what is on Smith St without you, Katia.
