"The first-ever New York City store for the cult-beloved grocer drew more than 3,000 people to the Brooklyn Navy Yard opening, with shoppers lining up in the rain starting at 4 a.m. before the store opened three hours later; one shopper called it “chaos,” though spirits sounded mainly high. Wegmans’ debut has made a major splash despite the proliferation of other well-loved grocery stores, and the much-anticipated location includes 74,000 square feet of shopping, counter-service restaurants, a coffee shop, and a full-service bar — reassuring many of the chain’s devoted “Wegmaniacs.”" - Stefanie Tuder
