The Roof at Whole Foods

Your family’s dining experience at Whole Foods isn’t limited to samples—head up to the Roof, a bar and restaurant that sits above the grocery store’s Brooklyn location. You’ll get great views of the Gowanus Canal and Carroll Gardens, plus American fare like burgers ($9–$12); you can also bring food upstairs from Whole Foods. Picnic-table seating makes the Roof a serene—and low-maintenance—spot for an alfresco family lunch.
